Airports and thought processes

Keflavik airport is actually a pretty comfortable one when you have hours to spend waiting

Sitting here, sipping an oat milk cappuccino after sucking down a pouch of Icelandic Skyr, tapping at the keyboard whilst I prepare the promotional materials for a September Equine MSTR® course in Selfoss, Iceland. This is a very exciting time for this work- evolving the scar therapy program in Iceland for horses is a big deal. Have you heard? There are a LOT of beautiful Icelandic Horses here and I am lucky enough to be involved in working with them on this level. I've spent the past 8 days revisiting some of the horses I already know, giving Thai Massage to humans and planning future events both here and elsewhere.

The 2027 calender is in the works... and we're only just 4 months into 2026. Breathe! One thing I love about what I do? Meeting people, helping them find the ease in their bodies they thought they had lost, or a part of themselves that was missing somehow.... conversations with people of all sorts who feel open to speak and think freely, honestly. I find that here. It's beautiful how the Icelandic people have welcomed me into their homes, communities and inner circles. So- September can not come quick enough in that respect!

In between then and now, I have a lot going on locally- in my office and with my family. My client schedule is full and for that I am grateful. My family is soon to located all on the same coast- making the traveling Granny Nanny gig a much easier task! MSTR® and AoB course schedules are increasingly busy as well- (I'll be jumping back in full on- with 3 online classes this weekend.) I'll try to breathe.

Have you been breathing? How's that going for you? If you could, just take a moment to notice what your breathing feels like- in your body, your brain, the rhythm of your heart. Then: exhale fully- let all that air go until you feel the natural urge to rebound into the next breath. Receive it fully, and then pull in little more- allowing your ribs the 3D expansion they crave. Notice that subtle pause at the top of your inhalation and then... let.... it....go....... What does that feel like? Keep going. Of course- none of this Icelandic experience would be possible without the aide of my friend/collegue, Paula Esson. Her 25 years of building connections and learning of the ways of the people and the land here provide the necessary link to my own expansion in Iceland. Without that, I'd not have had a "non-tourist" introduction, nor the opportunity to meet the lovely people I now call friends. I am so grateful.

Paula, thank you for introducing me to the land of fire and ice
