A Lesson from the Magical Forest Experience I was chatting with a friend this morning about the years I lived in the Magical Forest at Chiruisco. That happened after I first moved to Ecuador. As we talked, memories I hadn’t visited in years came flooding back. I could see the …
I am now offering Dried Blood Analysis at Living Ground. After completing my new teaching manual, I felt inspired to bring this work forward and begin offering consultations by appointment.
