Happy New Year
Good blessed morning! As I sit here at the start of this beautiful new year..this clean slate, this untouched blanket of snow..the birth of something new and great…I have spent the last 4 hours in mostly silent contemplation. Contemplating how far I have come. Reflecting on all the amazing lessons I have learned in the…

What is holding you back?
I went for a walk last weekend on one of my favorite trails. I had been really busy all week with work and was feeling suffocated from being inside all week. For me, when I feel like that (incidentally this works for EVERYONE-there have been studies) I hit the trail. Well…it wasn’t the experience I…

Never too late
Have you ever really dug in to your heart to see what really lives there and fires you up? What will get you out of bed in the morning with no regrets..that makes you WANT to be here? I have been doing so much of that of late. Turns out, what sets my HEART ON…

Purpose
Meditation has been pivotal in this journey towards healing, light and purpose. I have written about this before because it has been such a HUGE and amazing piece in that puzzle. Meditation puts my spirit back to that calm and rational place that we should all exist within but it also does so so much…

How are you doing in all of this? The struggle to stay positive and less anxious is real.. especially when life throws even more hardships at you. Life…

Still Wending
It’s been a bit! I have not been in the best writing space lately. Alot has been contributing to this..the ongoing uncertainty of this pandemic is the big one. I have been letting some great practices slide, becoming complacent in my mindset. The last few weeks I have been growing increasingly fatigued and frustrated with…

I love myself enough
I’ve been absent from the blog for a few weeks now…life’s been really busy, my mindset has not been in the best space to focus on writing. Today though, I had a bit of an epiphany. Today’s post is not as much about my grief journey as it is about mindset and about loving yourself…

Businesses are reopening, people are getting vaccinated, less people are sick and workplaces are preparing for employees to come back to work in person.

What would you tell your younger self?
This week was super exciting! My new business has really taken off and I was interviewed for a podcast! On the podcast, I was asked the question: What would you tell your younger self? My response was twofold: I said take care of your body sooner and don’t care what everyone thinks. Got me thinking…

Gratitude
I woke up today in such a space of gratitude, that it started a chain of feelings and events that made things just start to click in my mind. I feel like I am finally truly grasping the lessons I took in my daily Unlimited 40 day practice. When you exist in such a state…

What are you running from?
This quote this morning during my meditation grabbed me. I have faced more than my share of difficulty to put it mildly. And it has all changed me. It’s changed me in so many ways that when I run into people from my past, they are blown away by the transformation. It’s like being reborn.…

Your words and thoughts create your reality
I did a post this week on my social media after I had a big epiphany and I thought we should talk about it here because it was so incredibly powerful. I have been doing alot of self reflection type of work and working on loosening my grip on trying to be in control of…

Shifting Perspectives–Change your Mindset
Why does everything always happen to me? How does the above statement make you feel? It brings me down and makes me sad. It makes me feel or it implies that all bad things happen to this person and there is no escaping from it. It sounds dismal and negative. It sounds like a punishment…

What a year!
This week marks the one year anniversary that a global pandemic was announced. We were sent home from work “for a few weeks” and we really thought it would all be over then. Here we are..the world indelibly changed: How we shop, how we work, how we socialize and even celebrate. Looking back, I didn’t…

Perserverence and Ego
This week, I’d like to share a story of perseverance paying off, and how I had to get my ego out of my way. So nearby to where I live, I had heard there was an owl that lived in a tree in a cemetery. I saw pictures and ever since, have been determined to…

Knowing your worth
I’ve been talking alot this week about knowing your value. Since going back to my Barre Blend workouts and doing the accompanying daily affirmations again, it’s really had me thinking about this topic. There is such a misconception out in the world that if someone values themselves and therefore carries themselves differently that they’re either…

Older and Wiser?
I had a milestone birthday this week. I turned the big 5-0! Turning this age was not what I was anticipating. I’m not sure what I was expecting…but I was surprised with how I felt about it. I will spare the platitudes: age is just a number and all that nonsense (although it really is).…
