I Am A Bohemian

A fragrant share by my fellow bohemian friend, Kelly Smith – aka Dove.

“I will say this. A true bohemian is not a hippie. A bohemian wanders with simple luxury in her pack. A bohemian bathes. Fragrance of life is a high ideal. A bohemian is self mastered, thoughtful and owns a moral compass that cannot be trampled or influenced by any person or law. In this way, a Bohemian will never be lawless, but we might break the laws of culture in right action. A bohemian is harmony. We are the observers and the devoted note takers. The alchemy as witness is the ultimate healing. We are the visitors in which great wonder and admiration is our badge. We leave our sacred spaces exactly as we came, or adorned with the magic of gifts agreed to by our environment. We do not take a stone unless we ask. To eat is to be the medicine. This is Peace. The gift of being mindful but decadent in our senses. We do not give our bodies casually. We gift the activity of love as if it were a cosmic consummation, and the intent of this energy is to fuel the high art of living. The words, songs, and textures flow. Our river is strong. We are devoted the innocent and wild. We are not hippies. A bohemian is a lover of OM, the greatest dance of all.

Dove. I am a Bohemian not a hippie.”

About Tania Marie's Blog

Tania Marie is a writer, visionary artist, Reiki Master Teacher, intuitive guide, and energy alchemist whose life and work have grown from more than three decades of exploring the creative healing arts, metaphysical studies, and the living relationship between nature, spirit, and the heart. Her practice has become less about what she does and more about how she lives—listening deeply, following what feels alive, and allowing creativity, healing, and everyday experience to become part of the art of being. She is the author of *Spiritual Skin* and creator of the 11-episode YouTube series *Talks With Crystal Skulls*. Her lifelong relationship with crystals and crystal skulls continues quietly behind the scenes, while her deep connection with rabbits has profoundly shaped the way she experiences presence, wonder, and the quiet language of the heart. Egypt has also become one of Tania's greatest teachers and a profound part of her ongoing journey of remembrance, empowerment, and embodied aliveness. Her relationship with the land has naturally grown into meaningful creative partnerships and opportunities to share its living wisdom with others. Today, Tania devotes much of her time to writing, photography, inspired offerings, sacred journeys, and following the ever-evolving invitations of a life lived in relationship with the living world.

  1. “The term bohemian has a bad reputation because it’s allied to myriad clichés, but Parisians originally adopted the term, associated with nomadic Gypsies, to describe artists and writers who stayed up all night and ignored the pressures of the industrial world.”
