October Update + Austin Studio Tour

NEWSLETTER - OCT 2025 Hello Reader As the parent of a toddler, I am often on the receiving end of the advice “it goes so quickly, make sure you savor it.” My son is growing in leaps and bounds these days, and I am starting to understand the deep emotional undertone of this advice. And, no matter how many times I hear it, or how cliché it sometimes comes off - I feel grateful for the reminder: STAY AWAKE, JOE. However vigilant I am in my awareness practices, I find I can always use an extra nudge. So, with this newsletter I just want to offer a quick reminder and an invitation - to take a deep breath and savor where you are in your journey's unfolding. Just noticing, what a gift it is to be alive - even if it feels a little wiggly right now. A New Offering - Monthly Integration Circle @KuyaStarting this coming Wednesday (Nov 5), I will be facilitating a new Integration workshop at Kuya Wellness. "Integration is where the real work of transformation happens. This experiential workshop is designed to help you bridge expanded awareness into embodied change, using a blend of Bio-Energetics, Gestalt, and Internal Family Systems (IFS) techniques to explore how different parts of us relate to healing, growth, and wholeness." It will continue on the first Wednesday of every month, 6-8pm. Registration details for the November date here. Now Accepting New ClientsI love this work. I love sharing the tools I have learned; helping my clients navigate their inner world and then watching that ripple out into their external world in remarkable ways. And I also remember feeling SO NERVOUS to begin my inner exploration. It might not be time. But if you are feeling that call - what the Gurdjieff work calls "magnetic center" pulling you towards working on yourself - then I would love to explore with you.

Art Update - Studio TourThis year I am once again participating in the Austin Studio Tour - taking place two weekends in November, Nov 8th/9th and Nov 15th/16th. The Studio Tour is one of my favorite Austin traditions and I'm so proud to be a part of it. I will be opening up my home and displaying my art from 12-6pm all 4 days, so please stop by and say hello. Stop #203 on the tour.
I'm so glad we get to stay connected in this way and I'm grateful that you are in my life. Feel free to share this with anyone in your life, and I would love to hear how you are doing. |

NEWSLETTER - DEC 2025 Hello Reader, A few days ago, despite my best attempts to keep the holiday season EASY, I found myself getting caught up in the hustle bustle. I was multi-tasking getting dressed for Christmas Eve church service and trying to entertain and dress an overtired toddler. Internally, I was trudging along and just trying to keep my head above water. Not drowning, but not exactly thriving. Our church has a tradition of making Christmas Eve a bit dressier than usual Sundays, so...
NEWSLETTER - NOVEMBER 2025 Hello Reader, I love painting, but one of my biggest challenges is deciding WHAT to paint. I used to do a lot of second-guessing about my choices. Here’s a story about that. A few years ago, I had a particularly vivid dream, and got a strong internal nudge to try and paint it. I had been saving a big canvas for something special, and had always been curious if I could capture a dream in paint. It was an elaborate dreamscape visual - a big hazy desert with two polar...
NEWSLETTER - AUGUST 2025 Hello Reader, Today I want to share a recent God-wink I experienced. Because walking the spiritual path can sometimes feel discouraging - and for me, acknowledging moments of synchronicity and grace can provide counterweight to the difficult moments. Difficult moments--such as traveling home on a crowded airplane with a toddler after spending 10 days visiting with family. My wife and I are sleep deprived. I feel fried. My patience has already been maxed out multiple...
