#anticipation Technically we are in spring. BUT, to me, we are in the “anticipation of spring” season. On the precipice. RIGHT NOW! The days where all things are transitioning rapidly from bleak to BEAUTIFUL! The fickle weather confusing us, and the earth, to know just how far to emerge each day from our cocoonish mindsets and modes of hibernation. Doesn’t… Continue reading Things I Have to Have: The Anticipation of Spring
Three Good Principles for Life
I keep bumping into a few core themes as I brainstorm, get inspired, and write these newsletter articles. These three thoughts keep grabbing my attention, principles and standards that resonate with me and how I try to approach and live life. Not only do they reflect how I wish to BE, but also how I… Continue reading Three Good Principles for Life
Things I Have to Have: iPhone Timer App
“I should time myself doing this.” Timing things I do helps me BE FULLY PRESENT. Allowing for no distractions, no aimlessness, no getting side-tracked, no wondering where the time went. While it might sound kind of rigid, maybe even robotic, it forces me to be singularly devoted to what I’m doing. When time is up, I truly move on. Knowing… Continue reading Things I Have to Have: iPhone Timer App
The Practice of Being Present
At one time or another, we have all said, “What just happened?” or “I don’t recall, I wasn’t paying attention”.

Things I Have to Have: Peeps and Cadbury Mini Eggs
For a limited time only! As someone who observes Lent and Easter, I thought I would give up sugar for Lent. While that’s a healthy idea, I realized, it wasn’t going to bring me closer to God. So I opted for something more in that direction. This meant sugar was back on the table! I haven’t had… Continue reading Things I Have to Have: Peeps and Cadbury Mini Eggs
You Are NOT Alone!
Is the most powerful voice the one in your head? (Yes!) Does it speak to you all day, every day? (Yes!) And not so nicely most of the time? (How did you know?) Harsh tones of judgment and self-doubt? (Almost always!) Causing you to stay stuck? (Often!) Are you going to ALLOW this? Allow the easy… Continue reading You Are NOT Alone!
Things I Have to Have: Coconut Oil
It’s not just for cooking anymore! I use coconut oil each morning as part of my oral health care routine. Hear me out! Before I brush, I swish a spoonful of coconut oil in my mouth for about 10 minutes as I make my bed and get dressed. It sounds odd, maybe even gross to some, but it’s naturally… Continue reading Things I Have to Have: Coconut Oil
