When 2010 began, I believed it would end up being my worst year ever: my personal life was in shambles, work was stressful, and my mom had been diagnosed with cancer. Even though I had a several-years-old practice of choosing a word of the year as my focus, with all of the stress in my [...]
Your Soul’s Road Map: A Vision & A Plan
There is a sweet beauty to serendipity. We meet a new lover by chance. We cross paths with an old friend. We find the perfect dress for that upcoming event. We wander into a nifty coffee shop and discover the perfect writing environment. The spirit of serendipity has brought me to some of the best [...]
Adjusting the Vision. Tweaking the Plan. Accessing Relaxed.
By the time you read this, I will be three days into a week-long digital sabbatical (it ends on May 5th). If things are going as planned, the only posts you will see scattered across my social media spaces will be ones that have been pre-arranged, pre-planned, and pre-staged, with the exception of the occasional [...]
Break Your Optional Rules
In the not-so-distant past, I believed that in order to be loved and to belong in my social world, I needed to twist and contort myself into what people expected me to be. I wore the right clothes (ones that were seasonal and neutral). I drove the right car in the 90′s (a 4-Door Oldsmobile [...]
Burn Like a Phoenix
When I was a little girl, I was taught to never play with fire. But what if I told you that I made the biggest leaps in my life by making the decision to walk through fire? Though I’ve talked about the demise of my marriage and how much I love my day-to-day life, I [...]
You Deserve to Be the Star in Your Own Life
I talk to women all the time who are, well, sick and tired of being sick and tired of how their life is going. They are unhappy, unfulfilled, and just don’t see how life can change. They feel stuck behind the labels they’ve assigned to themselves. Mom. Wife. Sister. Grandmother. They tell me about numbing [...]
Your Heart’s Desires: Making It Happen
We’ve been exploring a variety of facets around the topic of feeling around here lately: allowing yourself to feel, choosing how you want to feel, and using that as a way to create goals that are meaningful. Now, you may be poo-pooing me with the notion that “goals” sound rigid. You may have set goals [...]
Your Heart’s Desires: How You Want to Feel
Let me ask you a question, darling: do you want to just bounce around in life or do you want to achieve or create something? I’ll be honest and tell you that nothing is wrong with simply being, but I am guessing that if you were to push aside the fears and the sometimes-mean voice [...]
Gypsy Writing, Congruency, and You
I believe that confession is good for the soul, so here’s a personal confession: I have some big goals this year around my writing, yet the first quarter of 2013 was spent with me being a gypsy. Now, while I have a gypsy soul when it comes to the exploration of my deepest desires via [...]
Allowing Yourself to Feel
Once upon a time, I was a very unhappy girl. My marriage was incredibly fragile, work was stressful and I dealt with it by shopping and eating. Neither were a good habit to get into, but chips and chocolate and new linens and stuff made me feel better, even if it was just for a [...]
Twelve Ways to Spring Forward with Ease
It seems like only yesterday we were asking all of our clocks and watches to fall back and here we are on the edges of spring already, with our clocks ready to be flung forward. Though our initial reaction may be to just complain about how inconvenient the time change is, how tired we are, [...]
Meditation to Fall in Love with Your Life
If I had to reduce my personal “coping with anything” toolbox down to a handful of tools, I’d have to include clearing physical clutter, a gratitude practice, clearing my head by writing things down, and meditation. So now for some brutal honesty, my dear: in the last year, I’ve fallen far away from any regular [...]
