Lower Your Stress, Be In The Moment!

One of the biggest contributors to our feeling stressed and overwhelmed is our inability to be really present for the moments of our lives.  Most of us have learned to be very good at multitasking.  We’re rewarded in many ways for doing more than one thing at a time, but when we do this, we’re … Read More

How often do you play?  My husband and I were out for a walk the other morning, and came upon this swing, hanging from a large tree in a field.  It made me think of how often we, as adults, take life so seriously that we forget how to play. Our lives get way out … Read More

What Do You Love Doing?

How do you choose to spend your time?  We all have things we have to do, like earning a living and taking care of responsibilities.  But do these things take up all of your time?  How long has it been since you’ve done something you truly love?

Finding an Inner Calm in the Midst of Turmoil

Sometimes life just feels a bit chaotic — too many things coming from too many directions!  There are people that thrive on lots of things happening all at the same time.  I’m definitely not one of them!
