In the Nowness of Now and All that Is
I’ve been sick with a horrid cold/flu for the last week which has been quite a grand and welcome distraction from the stress I have felt over selling my house and the sadness I feel having to say goodbye to it. I’ve never left a house I was in love with and I find myself …
Life Update // A Room with A View
I seem to have been on a wild ride of emotional turmoil lately, but as the dust settles, the picture is getting clearer and the view is getting much, much nicer. I feel like kicking myself yet again for not only lacking patience but for doubting the Universe (as we all do in challenging times) …

#MondayMotivation // Trust Your Struggle
I began writing a #MondayMotivation post but couldn’t get motivated. Even I need inspiration now and again and though I did watch a few thrilling TedX talks to help motivate, everything I wrote just sounded contrived and even forced. I’m so inconsistent lately, and I hate it. Overwhelmed by the scale of some things, underwhelmed …

#MondayMotivation // Change Your Expectations & Change Your Life
It’s true that we can all probably watch TedTalks and motivational videos and read personal growth and self-help books until we have that A-HA moment and IN that moment, feel as if we’re changed forever… WE GET LIFE and we’re thriving. Then a few days later, we’ve forgotten all that we have learned and are …

#MondayMotivation // Embrace What Is… Then Think Bigger
I didn’t get a chance to blog all last week, and it drove me insane. Every day I thought about all the things I wasn’t accomplishing instead of seeing exactly what I was, and that’s never a positive place to be, mindfully speaking. If I’m going to be able to make both careers work, I …
You Take the High Horse, I’ll Take the High Road
