Beyond Myself III
The boys are back in school. I am alone again, trying to collect what is left of me after those hard summer months of fear and fires and dry, cracked roads and riverbeds. Flame licking at the boundary of my husband’s store. The tourists leaving. Him trying to sell what he has spent years…

Beyond Myself II
Before this letter, I want to pause and say thank you. So many of you reached out with concern and care during this fire season here in British Columbia. I feel so held by this community. We are safe, and so are those we love, and I don’t take that for granted. Thank you for all your gentle...

Beyond Myself
“Deepen and continue,” I repeat, as I struggle to feel old parts of me I thought I had left behind resurfacing. Fear hallows the chest. Rumination and foreboding sit heavy in the dirt with me while I hold my small breath and read the leaf for storms. How humbling it is to discover that no matter...

This Is What It Feels Like to Arrive.
This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit sarahblondin.substack.com What I am trying to say here is something I have not yet learned to do. Which is perhaps exactly why it needs to be said. Everything that exists was impossible until it wasn't. The fact that I am running my…

You are Not Lost,
This piece is about the distance we keep from our own lives. It is about the part of us that asks again and again what we are meant to do, while declining the movement that would lead us toward answering it. There is something in us that keeps us circling the questions instead of moving toward…

We Who Refuse to Burn.
This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit sarahblondin.substack.com *Thank you for your patience—this is the January post, arriving a little late. February will bring two essays. What life and its mystery have been urging me to remember lately is this: just because I am…

The Pin and the Palm.
This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit sarahblondin.substack.com The majority of my days are spent in solitude, surrounded by hallways of trees. I walk slowly down winding footpaths through the woods. I speak mostly to wind and sparrow, to the passing fog. The most loving...

The Life I Can No Longer Refuse.
This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit sarahblondin.substack.com A restlessness that won’t settle, the sense that time is running out, the pressure that gathers behind the breastbone, these are not signs of lack or failure. They are calling you, not to run toward more…

Her Hands are in the Fire.
When we come to the edge of something, when we have drained the light from a particular way of being, when what we know dissolves and all we can see is the vast, startling abyss of stars staring back at us, blinking, we have reached the Via Negativa, the lightless path mystics speak of. It is the...

Fangs in the Thigh, Water in The Wound
This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit sarahblondin.substack.com Yes, our hearts break, and yes, there is much we fear to feel. Yet we are asked to enter it still. Even the part of us that swears it cannot bear life is bearing it somehow. We reject, bargain, slip out the…

Wild Voice 4
I've returned to my practice of sitting under the trees for an hour after a few days away. In front of the waving arms of her cedars, my eyes welled with tears, overwhelmed by how much I had missed her. It is now butterfly season, and the sparrows are tumbling through the trees, making love....

Wild Voice Part 3
"Lie still, lie straight, let rain fall through your unbracketed body. Until grief tamps you to sand and you spread transparent, letting everything move through, wind and moisture, streams and clouds and hawks." ‘Grace’ by Barbara Crooker My daily practice of sitting quietly in nature for an hour...
-
Wild Voice Part 2
I continue to sit under a tree for an hour every day, and with it, more and more information about nature is revealed. I notice the pace is vastly slower than human pace, and so inconspicuous. You have to consciously quiet the mind and enter a state of profound listening to catch nature's soft...

Wild Voice
I've challenged myself to spend an hour under a tree every day for 30 days. In reality, it isn't a challenge; it doesn't feel hard, but I wanted a container for it. An act of discipline. A little reverence and ritual. I would describe it as a 30 day restoration and opening to nature. Taking the...
