Don’t wait. Today is the very best day, now is the very best moment, to chill out and breathe. Talking with friends this week, I realized that many of us are waiting. We’re waiting for some other day to give ourselves a break. We’re waiting until our next vacation to really let our hair down…

If you were own boss, how many hours would you choose to work? My message today is simple: Stop working so hard. Treat yourself with the gentleness you reserve for a small child (you wouldn’t yell at a 3-year-old because they don’t know algebra, would you?) Take ample breaks. Leave your work at work. Tap…

Do you suffer from work stress? Take these steps to make today and the rest of the week even better. Work stress can be a drag. Especially when it continues day-in, day-out, right? We’re not alone in thinking so either. In a recent Gallup poll, 80% of those polled reported some form of workplace stress.…

Freedom is a state of mind – where’s your head at? Not that long ago, my life was like a prison. Toxic relationships, road rage, no time for myself, plus the stress of working as a 911 operator all added up to “no fun!”. Tension headaches, acid indigestion, a short temper, and a generally bad…

Today is a great day to check-in with your fear and see it for what it is. Tell-tale anxieties? Limiting beliefs? They’re no match for present moment awareness. You’ve decided to make a change, pursue a new endeavor, reinvent an aspect of your life. The vision for this new way of being inspires you. Maybe…

What do you do when the pathway becomes thorny? When the underbrush is too thick to pass? Do you keep pushing, tensing, bracing yourself against the pain, hoping that the end is near? Or do you practice an easier way? Our organizations praise hard work. Long hours are applauded. Productivity is a buzzword. And even…

If you’re anything like me, you have a thousand things going on. So many things that it sometimes seem like the full-time job is background noise, and then we’re off to the races! No time to delay, it’ll be bedtime before you know it! Inundated by a laundry list of tasks for completion, it can…
