Funky Town

Everyone visits Funky Town at some point. I’m not talking about good times & Uptown Funk where Bruno Mars gets his groove on: I am talking about tough times when we really need to get ourselves out of the mental muck. For some, this is more prevalent around the holidays, so maybe this is a […]

Blossom

All life goes through phases. From tiny little seeds pants root, grow, bud, blossom, pollinate, wither, fruit, fall, change colors, lose their leaves, crumble back to the earth. Like plants, we change throughout our lives as well. We grow. Our beauty, just like the energy contained in a flower, comes from within. A tight bud, […]

Rainy Days

When I’m having a good day, I want everyone to be in the same mood I’m in. Often, in day to day interactions, it bums me out when I’m feeling cheery and others around me are moping about whatever. Sometimes, it even makes me feel angry. I want everyone to be in the same mood […]

Envy No One

In my early twenties, in a conversation with a wise friend who is 20 years my senior, I started whining about the life I didn’t have. When I finished, she patiently pointed out that envy and jealously weren’t my most attractive traits. Then she said: If everyone in the world had to put their troubles […]

Seek the Silver Lining

When life gets tangled up and messy, we need to seek our personal silver lining. It’s an ongoing mental exercise to continually seek the the positive when its seems like we’re mired in negativity around us. But, if we start to change the way we look at people or situations, things we are looking at […]

Maintain Inner Peace in a World of Turmoil

Nobody can give us inner peace. It would be nice if we could buy it by going on a retreat or vacation, but this is not a reality. While we might enjoy a peaceful vacation with no arguments in a beautiful peaceful setting— this doesn’t mean that we experienced peace in our mind. It’s hard […]

Rethink What You Think Matters

Some things do matter. Illness and Death are big matters. Having an income matters and it’s very stressful when money seems to be flowing in the wrong direction. But other than these, not much else really matters. What you said or neglected to; how you acted or didn’t; what your wore; that expression on someone […]

Silly is Serious Business

Whenever you have a moment to be silly — do it. Yes, if you have children they’ll be mortified but you’ll be better for it. Being silly is serious business. It is good for you. Being silly has been proven to be healing in a variety of illnesses, particularly those involving autoimmunity. Getting your silly […]

It’s No Wonder…

It’s not surprising that  as a culture we deny that everyday we are alive, we’re all getting older. Pick up a thesaurus and you’ll see that some of the synonyms for old are: ancient, decrepit, tired, fossil, broken down, depilated, enfeebled, exhausted, antiquated, absolute, archaic and geriatric. These words don’t describe how I feel nor […]

Reaction

The dictionary defines reaction as: 1) an action performed or a feeling experienced in response to a situation or event; 2) a persons ability to respond physically and mentally to external stimuli; 3) an adverse physiological response to a substance that has been breathed in, ingested or touched. Overall in daily life, I’d define most […]
