I have a LOT of energy, and I think I may have mild Tourettes. Sometimes I just burst into giggles or song for no reason at all. It's awkward.

I poke fun at the stuff that knots most people's stomachs. Apparently I've even lost relationships after threatening sacred cows. (Sometimes the monkeys get it too.) I find Satire one of the most effective forms of waking myself and others up, and I use it generously.

Humor aside, I have a strong spiritual foundation, so my goofy and glossy exterior covers a very intense desire for growth and expansion. I'm always creating something, and delving more deeply into my assumptions so that I may live life from my Heart and not my head.

My ideal friend or partner is a man who is equally connected to his heart. He is either living his deepest purpose in life or he is actively engaged in discovering that. He brings humor and passion to his interactions with me and the world. He is committed to living on his edge in wonder, curiosity and reverence.

I'm strong and driven, yet also easily distracted by the butterfly that just flew by. I'd wear yellow galoshes with a black dress for tea at the Ritz. I smile at children and pet all the dogs I pass. I'd rather be happy than angry, but sometimes forget that in traffic. I don't take things at face value, yet I trust my intuition. I believe in the fundamental goodness of man, and I still think the Jedi will win.

Loving my Dog. Singing to said Dog.
Studying my humanity, and trying to trick it into being more alien.
Pondering marketing penetration for my practice.
Wishing I were doing yoga..

I was a jewelry designer for many years, but now I'm studying and practicing energy work and healing. I'm trained in Reiki and Tantra, and my practice is working with men to be more present and connected in their bodies (with a focus on the heart) allowing for more openness and intimacy with their wives, girlfriends or potential partners. I work with my clients to shift their sexual energy from their root chakra up to their heart, allowing them to connect from a heart place instead of just their sexuality. I like to say I'm transforming the 1%, one man at a time. ;)

I'm also actively open to a delicious relationship with a fabulous man who curls my toes and makes me squeal with delight! When we meet, we'll be best friends first. As a matter of fact, I'm sure of that.

Someone recently asked me what exactly I was looking for on Okcupid, so I thought I'd share that with you too.

Im looking to engage genuinely with a man, and allow whatever authentically emerges to emerge. No agenda except being true to myself and being kindhearted.

I'm open to someone who'd like to explore with me, not only in physical reality but inner reality.

I'm open to connecting with a man who's turned on by looking at life more deeply, and living from the heart.

Long term I'm open to a life partner, for however long we choose to play together. The 'partner' bit is more about the spiritual container we create, not the length of time we're together.

I want it to be Passionate, Sexy Adventuresome, Raucous and emotionally Risky! No vanilla, thankyouverymuch.

What about you? What are you looking for?

completely blowing the joke
making scrambled eggs with veggies and goat cheese
connecting the dots
correcting grammatical errors
painting my own toenails (though I prefer not to)
pogo-sticking
wiggling my ears
drawing posters with magic markers
impressing parents
making my bed
making any space look beautiful

I smile and laugh a lot (snort, if you must know).
I have an extra boob.
My curly hair and freckles.
I make up all sorts of new words.
I lie about things like boobs.

You consider yourself spiritual, openminded and hungry to learn.
You consider being kindhearted an important virtue.
You are curious about your patterns and your perceptions.
You are playful and creative, and you love to laugh at yourself.
If you would wear giant silly shoes to the Westin for a first date
If you are participant or appreciator of the Arts, any medium,

You should probably Not contact me if..

-You are religiously and fundamentally Christian (I consider myself a follower of Jesus' teachings, so I'd be kicked out of many churches.)
-You live in your mom's basement, and you don't contribute to the household
-You included a photo of your naked chest on your profille
-You didn't read my profile, and just think I'm sexy
-You are "just fine" with a normal, stable and unquestioned Life
-You've never engaged in any consciousness expanding work
-You don't know the difference between their, they're and there.

Please do not take it personally if I do not respond. I am very selective regarding where I put my energy and focus, so if I you don't hear back it's because I don't feel we'd be a match. I wish you much Love on your journey!
