A NOTE FROM CHRISTINA

Christina Merkley — Fri, 04 Sep 2026 17:05:07 +0000

I meant to get a spring eZine out, and alas, time got the better of me. I’m just having to let go and let God on my communications, like I’m increasingly being with soooooo many things nowadays. A bit challenging for a recovering strategic planner with an uptight Doer … but such is life on... Read more »

Hello from the west coast of Canada in rainy March. No real snow this winter; however, the rain is stubbornly consistent, as is customary for a temperate rain forest this time of year. When I go for walks, it’s dramatic, even gothic. Dripping in moody moss and stark sculptural branches. Atmospheric like the British novels... Read more »

It’s been a busy time. Anneke Lucas and I, with an amazing international cohort, just wrapped a 10-Week Processing Group. We worked right through the holidays, even on Christmas and New Year’s Eve. Offering community to Survivors through a period of time that is traditionally difficult. Tomorrow, we move into our Level 2 of Shifting... Read more »

A nice respite. Enjoying the West Coast summer. Cheers! I celebrated my moon child birthday. I am conveniently bad with time, so they are amorphously blending into one another nowadays. My friends, even the doggedly left-brain ones, know not to remind me which one I’m on! I had a lovely time in Parksville on Vancouver... Read more »

Sliding into summer in the Pacific Northwest. Our backyard bank of St. John’s wort has erupted into a sea of yellow. Watching the first bloom emerge, then the winnowing down to the last. Such a wave of exuberant beauty that I delight in each year! The so-called little things in life that summon immense pleasure.... Read more »

Oh my. These are intense and shifting times, are they not?! As The SHIFT-IT Coach, I continue to shift too. In my personal life, I continue to support my parents to age in place. For privacy reasons, I won’t go into details, but suffice to say, this context adds a bittersweet component. One of the... Read more »

I like to get an eZine out each month. So, I’m sliding this January issue out in the nick of time. Whew! Oh my, a lot has been happening … good things, but a lot! It’s semester switch at SHIFT-IT School. Programs that began last year are ending, and new ones are launching. The 2024... Read more »
