Finding Your Rythm!
Here’s to you all out there who tackle the day with zest! Sometimes, the hardest part of the day is when your alarm clock goes off, the drive to work, or right before your workout. Sometimes we dread the unknown and make a bigger deal out of our task than it is. I am also certain that we have all felt that luxurious point, where you pushed through the doubt and fear and put one foot in front of the other to produce wonderful results. The moment when it all clicks and you feel in the zone. Grateful for waking up and doing the work. Proud of yourself for digging…

Yup, you heard that right. What good does endless stressing do? How do mindless thoughts, anxious movements, or rash actions help the cause? They Dont!!!. It’s not productive to stay stuck in a rut just going through the motions without getting positive results. If this is happening to you in any facet of your life, it can be a great sign, that you are not on the right track or path and need to…

I know a Secret…
How in the world do you move forward when you have no idea which way to go?!? At times do you feel stuck in the mud, or maybe even cement? Frustration would be a relief when you feel so lost in the weeds, that you feel you have no possible way to free yourself from the mire. I have been there periodically and it can weigh you down like an anchor if you let it. Learning to adapt new techniques to overcome that feeling and see your way through, can be as simple as finding little guides or mantras that can help you through the tough times. For some, the…

My older sisters’ were among the very first to grace the grounds along with my grandparents. They took the wonderful drive down I 75 to Disney in their RV from Michigan was still in my mother’s womb. Well, I must have carried the excitement, anticipation oh, and jealousy of not being able to attend this brand new world, because I certainly adopted all of the fascination,…

Paving your path and living your passion daily.
Let’s talk about paving your own path shall we? How often do you feel a sense of déjà vu or watch a movie that resonates so deeply within your heart that you feel as if your words, thoughts leapt onto the screen, and expressed themselves right before your very eyes, period? How often have you looked at yourself in the mirror and said hmmmm……something is just not right and wondered at the moment I wonder what it is?!? A nagging sense of a tapping on the shoulder, saying hey, do you remember how much fun you used to have doing this? I remember when you used to write down what…
