Meeting the Divine Ms. Annie Leibovitz

June 28, 2012 By Stephanie Bennett Vogt 2 Comments
Annie Leibovitz with yours truly

“Now when I take a picture, I can tell if I feel the pilgrimage in it. A rawness. A simplicity. I’ve gotten down to what matters."–Annie Leibovitz. It's not every day that a show comes to your sleepy little hometown and wakes you up. Last night, my husband, Jay and I got to meet the …

Explosions of Good

dandelion-covered-dew

There's a word for it: Eucatastrophe. Though it's not the prettiest word to say or look at, I love the concept. "Eucatastrophes are sudden, unexpected, but perfectly logical- in-hindsight explosions of good."–Author unknown Eucatastrophe is a term coined by J. R. R. Tolkien which refers to the …

If you read my last post you know that I am loving Oprah's new program on her OWN network called Lifeclass. Every week night at 8 pm ET she showers us with inspirational messages: lessons, stories, and aha moments assembled from her experiences in the media and in her own personal life. It is her …

Dance and Flow

Martha Graham

Waaaa, my favorite show on TV just ended it's eighth season. If you've been reading my posts for a while you probably know that I love – no, make that adore – a show called So You Think You Can Dance on Fox TV. I wrote a post a couple of years ago called Lighting Up the World from the Dance …

It’s Here! Your Spacious Web Site

July 1, 2011 By Stephanie Bennett Vogt Leave a Comment
Secret Garden 2

SpaceClear.com has morphed several times since 2001 when it was founded. I cringe when I think of what we used to look like back in the day when internet was still so young. As of this week, we've launched our most beautiful site ever, thanks to the Zen-like sensibility and fine detail work of my …

Mani-Fest

Joy-300x199

Manifest. Mani as in many. Fest as in celebration... and joy! I recently came across a terrific manifesting exercise on Arielle Ford's blog. Though it is written for those seeking to attract their soulmate, I thought with a few few tweaks and modifications, it could work nicely to attract …

Go With the Flow (It’s Refreshing)

River-Flow-300x225

Last Saturday I did something completely out of character for (my introverted, worker bee) self. My Mexican cousin and his posse of ten friends from Mexico City were in town for the weekend [San Miguel de Allende – where I am at the moment]. I bumped into them on the street, and like a little …

Living by Goosebumps

Rose-300x225

"I live by goosebumps." –Quincy Jones Twice this week I have been elevated beyond words in the most unexpected ways. Both involved the music of Sting. The first came from a 30-second video clip shared by Cheryl Richardson, live from the Royal Albert Hall in London (via her Facebook page). In the …

Smile, Life is Good

Pinata-Dog

Two things that made me laugh out loud this week had to do with canines (with a latin flare). The first is a cartoon of guy walking his dog talking to another guy with a dog – a "Pinata" dog on a leash. The caption reads: "True, he isn't very affectionate, but he is full of candy." The other …

Expanding and Contracting

July 13, 2010 By Stephanie Bennett Vogt 3 Comments
birds-smiling

I adore this line by the poet Rumi: "Your deepest presence is in every small contraction and expansion, the two as beautifully balanced and coordinated as bird wings." As it relates to clearing the clutter in our lives, it resonates so much for me. So I went online and found the poem. …
