I LOVE what I do. OK, I don’t love “everything” I do, but knowing that everything I do allows me to do what I love makes it ALL worth while! Today, however I am going to do a little less of what I do and practice a little more of just being… I was blessed… Read More
Ready for a challenge? Find a mirror. Look at yourself and say: “I LOVE YOU!” I’m not kidding. If you can’t say it to yourself, how can you expect it to hear it or receive it from others. Fortunately our love from others is NOT dependent on our love of ourselves, and yet, maybe it… Read More

As is typical in January, it takes a few weeks to settle into the New Year. I notice it most when I write the date… I wrote a few checks this week, which in itself is atypical in this electronic age, right!?! Are you noticing shifts? I love to “catch” signs of change and shift,… Read More
I like simplicity. I like balance. I like truth. The mantra, “Breathe. Move. Rest.” provides a simple, balanced attempt to organize life around and within truth. It’s a mantra that helps cultivate balance in my daily life. However, life has taught me that preferring these conditions is not enough to make them reality. In fact,… Read More
Happy New Year!!! Are you a resolution setter? A Vision Board builder? A dreamer, a planner, or a fly-by-the seat-of-your-pants-er? Or are you a nay-sayer when it comes to setting intentions and aspirations for life or your “Bucket List”? I am definitely a dreamer and a planner, but over the years I have grown more… Read More
Happy New Year!!! I told you last month that Thanksgiving is my favorite Holiday… and it is. But… my second favorite holiday is New Years! not because I celebrate with a big party or even stay up late enough to watch the Ball drop. I love New Year’s because it’s the epitome of #BeginAgain! New… Read More

Think about it:… Read More
