So often, I find myself 'following'. It might be simple curiosity. Or an insatiable desire for knowledge, perspective, truth. But I'm always following. Following teachers. Following trends and following alternatives. Following thought leaders and experts. Following my breath. Following my intuition. Following my nose. Just following along. And it's fun!It's interesting. It's motivating. It's growth-minded and it keeps me fresh. So I'm inviting you to come along. Let's see who we meet and what we learn. Let's grow and develop and stretch and radiate. Let's follow and see what happens along the way. Namaste!

    At Studio 108, we appreciate the multidimensional aspects of the human. Which is just a fancy way of saying: We're all about body, mind and soul as a connected holistic experience.  Today Kaley Tocco and I sit to chat about that mind-body-soul connection and how Thai Massage, Reiki and Access Bars are utilized to support folks in healing and growing and learning and being. If you practice yoga with us, you might know Kaley from her yin class on Monday night. It's a studio fave. She also teaches slow burn yoga, warm gentle yoga + restorative yoga. But beyond that, Kaley is also a very powerful energy healer with a gift for moving energy through the human form. She explains how she creates space, restores connection and opens up flow. You'll probably feel better just listening to her but I highly recommend booking an appointment! Hope you enjoy.

    In my neighborhood, the seasonal shift into spring means mulch around the trees and hanging baskets by the front door. But at Oxbow Orchard, there's a whole lotta farm to get organized. So our local urban farmers Beth Lomske and Kyla Werlin are very busy birthing baby sheep, nurturing seedlings -  both vegetable and flower - planning community events and preparing the marketing for a summer of fresh, local fares. And I don't know that I can adequately explain how incredible it feels to stand at Oxbow Orchard with the sheep and turkeys and tomatoes and basil and honey and just the nicest people when I'm but a short mile from the industrialism and commercialism that defines the neighborhoods in which I live and work. But I'm chatting with Beth today to create a picture and to tell a story so that you'll be inspired to drive from your neighborhood to their farm paradise and check it out for yourself. So please take a listen and then make a point of coming down to the farm this summer. Procrastinate no longer. It's an incredible feeling. I think you'll leave feeling really good. The Market is open Thursday to Sunday from Noon to 7pm. The May Day Event is May 24th. And the social + website  will list the full season of events.

    The Light Wisdom and Wellness in Brecksville OH is home to a state-of-the-art Energy Enhancement System. Our 24 unit system maintains a bio photonic and scalar wave (Tesla energy) field. This high frequency environment prompts the body to detoxify and provides a full body cellular charge. Resting comfortably in a chair, you will experience deep relaxation (aka down regulation of the nervous system). It's in this state of relaxation that the body engages in its natural healing processes. We are built to heal - the EESystem creates + maintains the  most optimal + the most powerful environment in which that can happen. Not many have heard of this technology - or they have heard of it being used in small bite ways such as red light face masks or scalar infused water. But at The Light, there are many who have tried the EESystem and have experienced inspiring and hopeful results. After witnessing these results over the last year and a half, Dolores Alquist and I are thrilled to develop partnerships and creative innovative ways for folks to benefit from the EESystem. Today we sat down to share some of our stories along with some updates. And I think you'll hear it from us quite clearly: We want to help the world heal - and that means you!Take a listen + if you're curious, reach out.

    For many kids, summer time means hopping on their bike and heading out into the neighborhood. If they are lucky, it's a family activity along the towpath or through the parks. But for kids with disabilities, riding a bike is a difficult and can create a barrier to connections with both family and peers. Rob Fellinger has a soft spot for kids and for bikes and for families. So it's no surprise that he starts his summer by offering a program to teach kids with differences how to ride a bike - and access their local trails - with their friends and family. Rob and his coordinating partner Deena Barrett have run the Cleveland iCAN BIKE program since 2012. Together they contract with the parent program iCAN SHINE to bring adaptive bikes and skilled mechanics to Cleveland. They organize community resources and raise funds to provide some 40 kids with an opportunity to learn to ride a bike. You'll be inspired by my conversation with Rob. And I hope motivated to offer a little support to this worthwhile program. The short list: awareness and volunteer energy and cash donations. Here's how to connect:Robfellinger@yahoo.com.    (216) 410-3007Take a quick listen and thanks for FOLLOWING!
