My message is basic.

The over-complexity of our lives begs for a saner way to live, but what is most important to know? My message is basic: the only thing we need more of, is less.

This need to get back to basics applies to what we consume on every level; mentally, physically, and spiritually.

We need potency, not quantity; we need what deeply nourishes instead of what merely suppresses and postpones.

"My favorite crop circle best describes what I do. Hopefully bring truth from above to the earth."
