January 3 “Today I will remember who I want to be.” Stuart Sandeman says that we all have a version of ourselves that we aspire to be: kinder, more patient, more energetic, etc. What happens, though, is that “life gets noisy”. We get stressed out, we’re pulled one way or the other, and/or we reactContinue reading “Daily Intention Setting: Day 3”
Daily Intention Setting: Day 2
January 2. Day 2: It’s getting late in the day. I got home not that long ago. I ate dinner and now I’m in my pajamas. I’m tired. But there’s something a tiny bit different today. I’ve set down a stone or two – and I feel lighter. I’m not carrying the weight like IContinue reading “Daily Intention Setting: Day 2”
Daily Intention Setting: Day 1
January 1. Happy New Year. Happy New DAY! I’ve been saying for a long time that resolutions are great but they don’t have to begin on New Year’s Day.

Hello Again . . . and Again
I know, I know. It’s been quite a while since you’ve heard anything from me. It’s been quite a while since I’ve had a chance to breathe much less write.

Becoming “Soul-Centered” – Conclusion

Over the past 8 weeks, we’veContinue reading “Becoming “Soul-Centered” – Conclusion”

Becoming “Soul-Centered”: Week 6 – Authenticity: Communicate Honestly
Wow! We’re 5 weeks in and things are really starting to roll! I absolutely love my mantra meditations and being able to go inward and just . . . be.

Becoming “Soul-Centered”: Week 5 – Intimacy: Connect to Your Soul
Welcome to Week 5! Now we’re on a roll!
