We're delighted to celebrate the beginning of a new creative venture by a dear friend of our Persephone community.

Kaki Sutherland's work is rooted in the simple but powerful intention of bringing people together—offering clothing as a form of expression, connection, and everyday presence in the world. What she is building is less about fashion itself and more about the spirit behind it: generosity, service, and supporting community in both visible and quiet ways.

Her emerging PEACEN® symbol reflects this beautifully—a daisy formed from eight open-ended infinity loops, each representing connection, individuality, and the idea that there is always room for another voice, another story, another act of kindness. Together, they form a reminder that peace is something we practice, and community is something we grow.

As her first collection, she chose to create July 4th T-shirts in honor of her father, who served in the military. It is a tribute to his service and to the freedoms he cherished, while also marking the beginning of her own journey to foster connection and support community through her work.

I know this may seem a little silly, but I believe one way of supporting someone's work is simply recognizing and appreciating what they have contributed.

Those who have read some of my recent articles know that I have a deep respect for Sir David Attenborough. I have been profoundly touched by the mindful way he speaks about animals, their relationships, and their capacity to experience the world. He is truly a master in that regard.

What does this have to do with medicine? In Anthroposophic understanding, animals and human beings share the realm of feeling. Developing sensitivity and understanding in one area can deepen our understanding in another.

With Sir David Attenborough Fandom – I just got recognized as one of their Top Fans! 🎉

A patient kindly shared some fresh gotu kola from the garden today. It grows like a w**d she states. I have never eaten it raw but know it from my herbal trainings.

Used traditionally for centuries and now being studied for its potential effects on cognition, circulation, and connective tissue health, gotu kola is an intriguing medicinal herb. Today, I enjoyed it simply in a salad with olive oil, herbs, and feta.

One more reminder that wellness can begin with the plants growing around us.

When Inner Shifting Becomes Transformational, Time Can Become Timeless

Healing rarely happens in a straight line—or according to a clock. Sometimes patients arrive for one concern and discover, as the session unfolds, that there is something much deeper asking for attention: stress, relationships, transitions, meaning, or simply the need to be heard while receiving care.

Over the years, I have come to value creating space for this kind of work while also honoring the structure that allows it to remain sustainable. Meaningful change does not always require travel, a retreat setting, or stepping away from daily life. Sometimes it begins quietly, one conversation and one session at a time—right here, close to home.

There are moments in practice when an inner process begins to unfold that reaches beyond the original reason for the appointment. Sometimes these shifts are conscious and immediate; sometimes they continue quietly beneath the surface long afterward. Not every session moves into this space, but when it does, the experience of time itself can begin to feel different—as though it briefly pauses or opens into something larger, less measured, and more deeply experienced.

The patients who are aligned with this type of work often recognize this process intuitively, whether consciously or unconsciously. It is part of what continues to draw me toward this sacred very profound kind of one-on-one care.

Dr. Pautz is an enthusiastic Walsh practitioner. Although some of the changes maybe subtle and require consistency in the protocol use, for some this foundation is a safe foundation to be able to address other things that may need a bit of attention.

We provide once monthly open houses free of charge for newcomers to learn more about the practice philosophy and schedule an appointment.
