Ute Arnold a renaissance woman creator of Unergi explores the tools she uses in her own life and clients/students as an artist, world traveler, psychotherapist raised in Germany and in the states since the 1970’s as a body worker who uses the “brain of the heart”. We explore intentional living, aging and our choices as capable citizens of the planet. Notice how this conversation enlivens the imagination, senses and self and group exploration
Ute Arnold
“This is my love affair with life. My life teaches me that only when I myself am willing to take care of Ute, while I am with another person, can I offer all of me. Then my giving is receiving and my receiving becomes giving and I feel that I am in an unconditional circle which I have called Unergi- Unity & Energy. To communicate with people in this way to experience grace.” - Ute Arnold

Tea Leaves
my teabag plump
yawning i nestle again into the blue down covers
where night dreams are held hostage
no matter how much I would like to remember
for silent fear
would they be intrusive like
Schubert’s piano peace, each finger
with too much force and urgency to call
me into awakening
i prefer the hovering white lace of the
dogwood, the pale streaking cloud
that leaves steady fading presence of pink gray
peace on a pale blue vastness
the deer, head down, finally finding
spring’s green morsels as its stalking legs
edge their way to the hostas and hydrangeas in
my garden
can i at least share that much
can i make room for the critters that,
like me, forage for sustenance after a long hard winter
Bizet is writing of a Franco-Prussian war in his overture, nothing
much has changed in our prideful ringing for dominance, and fear of safety
the trumpets’ patriotic fatherland blaring
still for greedy expansion
300 people tornado dead in Arkansas on Wednesday
Japanese searching in Tsunamis rubble
a royal wedding under gray British clouds
once again our hunger for childhood fairy tales and celebration blankets concern for clean water, as
Dvorak’s strings find ‘My Home’ in a national anthem
i wonder what is left of his home now, in Tchekoslovakia
my patch still looks green from my bedroom window
where i dream
with cold tea
and Mozart’s first minuet
