We’ve all been through a lot since the beginning of COVID. With something that seemed like it should have just been a passing concern, or maybe just 2-3 weeks of lockdown and then going back to normal, it’s been an ongoing, chronic stressor that has taken its toll on everyone. If you are someone that […]
Narcissism has become more and more of a cultural buzzword to the point where I think a lot of people are basically just confused now or throwing the word around. I even heard it on a TV show last night where the superhero villain is talking about his narcissism and how he’s alone because of […]
You could say that some of us are more naturally inclined to give and others a little more inclined to take. With practice and over time throughout the lifespan this tendency can grow and either develop further or possibly lessen.

Stress is one of those strange things that we all know what it means to some extent just from experience, but what is it really? Does it feel like anxiety, pressure, fear…heaviness? …What is it? Why does it even happen? Stress can become a habit, a way of living, or it can be maybe something […]
It can seem like life is a tough struggle sometimes. We don’t always know why or for what reason, but it can seem hard. The things that used to bring you joy just don’t anymore and it seems like everyday is a new problem to manage or deal with. It may even seem like life […]
What does getting organized mean to you? Does it mean strict, stringent structure? Or something else? And why does it even matter? Organization in my opinion, in its essence, means creating a balance. It is creating a balance between a sense of structure and timing, and also an openness and flow to living. Organization means […]
May today there be peace within. May you trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be. May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith in yourself and others. May you use the gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you. […]
