The Gardener (Remix)

by KatieP, in category Head | Creativity, Health | Midlife
flower

The trees were knotted and scarred from years of neglect, the young plants were still too small and fragile and her own design was amateur and inferior compared to the professionally landscaped yards. The faults and flaws were obvious and ugly and she wondered how she could have ever overlooked them.

How to Feel Good Naked

making love

No matter how flat your stomach is, no matter how large the gap between your thighs, no matter how much your hip bones are visible, you will never feel good naked if you don’t feel good with your vulnerability.

I gave up dieting like you said and now I feel huge — fuck this — I’m outta here

breakup

Jeremy and I used to be in love. He was handsome, funny and charming. But people grow apart and things change. We broke up as elegantly as we could. We weren’t good for each other so we went our separate ways. I knew that there were other women that Jeremy would be perfect for, just… Read More

What if Your Damaged Self Didn’t Need Healing?

by KatieP, in category Head | Mindfulness, Health | Sexuality
damaged self

Genpo Roshi (Dennis Merzel) is a former Zen Buddhist who teaches the practice of Big Mind. I watched one of his videos last night which was a process that unpicks all the different “voices” we have as part of the self, what they do for us and why they need to be heard. The process… Read More

How Feminine Power Beats Masculine Force In Matters of Weight Release

by KatieP, in category Health | Midlife
turned on women call

A turned-on woman rejects force in favor of real power. She educates rather than emasculates. Rather than withdraw, avoid, judge, and bludgeon, she enters and transforms. She knows that she is responsible for preparing the world to receive her. Rather than taking the easy way out and demanding her freedom, she shows others how they will benefit… Read More

Buddhist Monk Says Wear Great Shoes

by KatieP, in category Health | Midlife
thorns

“Seek not to cut the root of phenomena, but to cut the root of the mind. If you have to cross a field covered with thorns, and you try to cover the field with leather, you won’t succeed. It is far simpler to cover your feet with leather.” ~ Sogyal Rinpoche, Tibetan Buddhist master There are… Read More

How to Love Your Body in a Bikini

by KatieP, in category Health | Midlife

Let’s face it, even though we love ourselves, there are parts of our bodies that we are happier revealing more than others. Me, I have great boobs. In fact, in my brief dating period between husband and Duckfish, one guy got the flick because he commented “I’m not really a boob man.” I have an… Read More

Using the Words Diet, Lifestyle Choice and Intuitive Eating Will Fuck You Up

by KatieP, in category Health | Midlife
eating continuum

People get quite heated over the terms we use to describe our relationship with food. It is like the label on a religion. Everyone is acknowledging a higher power, but we fight over whether it is God, Buddha, Mohamed, Jesus, the Universe, Spirit or the magic fairies at the bottom of the garden [which is where… Read More

Why Bingeing and Extreme Exercise Means You’re Not Getting Enough Sex

by KatieP, in category Health | Midlife, Health | Sexuality
Young Couple

My husband and I were married for fifteen years. The passion had long ago disappeared from our relationship (if it had ever really been there at all). We were lucky if we had sex once every three months. In the beginning I blamed it on the Depo Provera I was using for contraception. After I… Read More

Author – Katie Paul

I have survived adoption, bulimia and the suicide of my husband, more or less unscathed. I attribute my resilience to my guardian angels Bob, Fred and Hugo.

I used to be a stage manager but gave it all up to create beautiful images and to write about loss, love, lust and longing. I get a bit raunchy at times because that’s the way life should be – full of big juicy moments. I'm sure Bob, Fred and Hugo agree.
