Emergence: Leaving the Old Shell Behind

The cicada, after her emergence.

Greetings, all.

I've just posted an upcoming tele-class on 'Moving From 'Obstacle' to 'Opportunity', to share some of the positive and empowering practices and approaches to help people shift out of the fear and 'stuckness' that seems epidemic these days.

If you or someone you know might benefit from joining us, you'll find more information on the tele-class here.

On another note altogether, my partner and I witnessed the most amazing 'totem' of transformation recently - a cicada moving out of its old shell and revealing a new, iridescent green shell and perfect, delicate wings that unfolded right before our eyes.

The photo above (taken by Phil) is the cicada's complete emergence, with her old shell next to her. It was amazing - we felt so lucky!

Blessings,
Jamie
