The Beauty Way

One of my greatest mentors in this field of beauty is a remarkable woman named Pele Rouge. She is one of those people who embodies life itself, exuding an innate generosity that comes from inner fullness. Being in her presence is always a gift.

Pele’s husband FireHawk is another beloved mentor, and matches her in every way. A gifted image-magician, he videoed Pele in this first-of-three video series, speaking about the feminine face of the Divine. I’m thrilled to be able to share it with you here:

I promise to post the next two in the series as soon as FireHawk sends them to me. I also have a profound story to tell about my work with Pele Rouge, but that will have to wait for another time. Meanwhile, if you want to know more about either of them, stroll through their beautiful website on Resonance.to.

Blink

I came across this image and quote when I was searching Flickr for suitable presentation illustrations. It’s by someone from Italy, called Mlle Mathilde, and reminded me why I love Flickr:

"In every minute there are nearly 60 blinks. So if I could never close
my eyes I would have a lot of seconds more to see the beauty."

BlogHer08 – Day Two: ShutterSisters

It turns out that some of the coolest people I’ve met here at BlogHer are part of a collective of women photographers called Shutter Sisters, so when I saw they were hosting a photo shoot in the streets of San Francisco, I decided to drop the other session options and go for the fresh air.

It was great to be outside, even though the skies are uncommonly grey right now, and fun to explore the city from another’s point of view (our group had a local tour guide who took us on a quick loop through Chinatown). Here’s some of what I saw out there:

Welcome to the Beauty Dialogues!

The Beauty Dialogues is here to illuminate the beauty of this world – not just the beauty of form, but also the patterns of essential wholeness that go beyond the visible.

Wholeness dissolves the illusion that life and work are separate so sometimes I write about design and the language of online communications, but it’s always about what, to me, life looks like through a beauty-lens.
