Anxious Feelings – Power of Presence

By Debra Basham, on May 12, 2024

I was awake a few times during the night. My friend is in the hospital. She just got home from Florida on Tuesday about dinner time and when I took “Welcome Home” cookies to her about noon on Wednesday, it was obvious she was not in tip-top-shape. This friend had MAJOR back surgery while in […]

From All Sides

By Debra Basham, on May 2, 2024

I have been working with a habitual habit energy. I’ve been at that place in the process where I could see clearly it was habit energy but I was not yet able to see what was driving it. You cannot see it until you can see it, and you cannot release it until you can […]

Hair Experiences

By Debra Basham, on April 17, 2024

I almost did not go for an out-of-doors bike ride today because of a threat of rain and a fairly stiff wind, but the newborn leaves making their debut on the trees outside my window moved me. About 7 miles in, and very near home, the three walkers looked a rather odd trio from behind, […]

The Guest House

By Debra Basham, on March 21, 2024

Today is March 21 and I have absolutely no “excuse” for not having posted on Yellow Brick Road since February 26. Yes, we have had house guests off and on for the past six weeks. Yes, I have been riding up to 20 miles per day on my bike this year rather than the normal […]

Trust Your Own Story

By Debra Basham, on February 26, 2024

Early Saturday morning I woke up dreaming. I knew the symbols were significant so by the light of the digital watch I keep on the nightstand I wrote in my journal:

Dream

Am sliding head-first down a piece of card stock to show a friend she can “trust your own story/writing….”

My scribbled note […]

I Am Made of You

By Debra Basham, on February 22, 2024

It is this disinterested but completely allowing contemplation of the body in the world that the body loses its ‘me-ness’ and the world loses its ‘not-me-ness.’ In this way bodily sensations no longer cry out ‘I am separate, I am exclusively you” and perceptions of the world no longer cry out, ‘I am separate, […]

Snow Bird Sees Rare Bird

By Debra Basham, on February 12, 2024

It has possibly been the longest ever period between posts for the Yellow Brick Road…. and I cannot say what has kept my fingers off the keyboard, but this Snow Bird before doing anything else this morning has to write about having seen a rare bird.

The significance of this bird began many years […]

Trust the Magic of Beginnings

By Debra Basham, on January 1, 2024

And suddenly you know: It’s time to start something new and trust the magic of beginnings. ~ Meister Eckhart

Today is the first day of 2024.

Yesterday afternoon I went into a different area on my bike ride. I was only lost between 8.88 miles and 12.22 miles….

Suddenly I knew I had gotten […]

Perfect

By Debra Basham, on November 5, 2023

We gained an hour last night here in most of the United States. What an odd concept, that we can lose or gain time….

Gain and loss…. part of the Eight Worldly Winds. It is written that gain obsesses the mind, and loss obsesses the mind. We are attracted to gain and repelled by […]

An Experience of Grace

By Debra Basham, on September 12, 2023

Wowser, it has been a wonder-filled day. Six women were present for deep sharing following the 6:30 a.m. meditation. Three of those women I have known previously, two are new friends.

Right afterwards I scored a Royal Flush and earned a whopping 5,000 points on the poker machine in our guest bath. In the […]
