Riddle of the Carving by RolandI pressed the ‘send to all recipients’ button for our last newsletter. For a moment I watched to make sure that the computer was doing as I intended, then I got up to have a ‘good job well done’ stretch. As I turned, my attention was caught by a carving that I have had hanging behind my chair in the School of Movement medicine office for many years. How was it possible that I could have just written extensively in the newsletter about walking from the EarthSpirit centre to Glastonbury without thinking about this carving which is right behind my back? more> |

The Borrowers By SusannahLooking up at the stars last night and the awesome Milky Way, we were pondering the mind-boggling mystery of it all.

News from the Shop We have some great new albums in stock. I've just added Gambler's
Ballet (a wild ride through joyful, modern, upbeat Irish music) and Kila
and Oki (an extra-ordinary world music collaboration between Oki, an
indigenous Ainu from an Island off Japan, and Kila from Eire. Spacious,
stunning, strangely African, the pleasure they are audibly taking in each others
musical company is infectious.). more> |
