EMBODIED GENIUS: BIRTH, BODY, AND BELONGING Birth is not a one-shot deal. It’s a constant layer by layer journey of coming into this body, and sometimes abandoning it in a trauma. Stress makes it hard to stay in this body.  Dissociation is not just “the nerves.”  It is also our spirit leaving our body.  And […]

Mellissa standing with her hands over her heart

OLD WOMEN RULE My spine tingled when she said it.  Truth Tingles. “They fired the council of grandmothers. That’s when the bad times began.” My indigenous teacher, Maria Yraceburu, was talking about how Native American people were changed when modern culture encroached. Yes, of course it was the violence, the greed, the mechanization of things.  […]

Mellissa Sitting and thinking

Leaders of substance and spirit How do you call in BOTH abundance and love? The key is the same for either. Your Vessel. But for some reason, no one’s talking about it! The key to manifesting wealth and love and all the good stuff in life… is having a receiving vessel.  It’s about creating in […]

Inner Journey

2 POT SHOWER: HOW I DON’T KILL MY BOYFRIEND Today I was bitchy. I wanted to know everything. Whenever my partner Tony said something right, I resented him for knowing things I didn’t know. It was day 7 of a storm related power outage and my sense of humor was gone. Tony gleefully suggested we […]
