I have said it before but I think it’s a good reminder periodically, but YOU are not me. I am not my friend or sister, and nobody (and no BODY) is the same. I find this especially necessary to say in relation to fitness and health. As a person who has been on their own […]

The smallest good deed is better than the grandest intention – Unknown Along the same lines of the quote above, I also heard recently that “actions scream while words whisper”. Both resonate strongly with me, as I (personally) agree very strongly with their sentiment/message. While of course words are/can be meaningful, it is in how […]
Sometimes it takes feeling a little pain/discomfort to remind us of WHO we want to be and HOW we will get there. This happened to me just last night/this morning. Yesterday I went golfing in the afternoon with a friend. We may have gotten into some beers while we had our round, and then continued […]
While I normally do a monthly debt recap … I thought it would be a bit more fun to reflect about ways I am changing/shaping my life to be 1. more economical and 2. more in line with the various values and beliefs that I carry. One thing that’s been ongoing, and I have written […]

Some of my favorite memories, places and items are those which have been around much longer than myself. Some of my faves: Angkor Wat, Cambodia – This was an absolutely breathtaking site to behold. While most people […]

Enjoy NOW
Yesterday is ashes; tomorrow wood. Only today does the fire burn brightly. – Eskimo proverb In today’s modern world, it is not uncommon for people to live in the mindset of “later” for things, experiences or opportunities. “Once I am ready to retire, I will cash in those vacation hours at work” … “Next weekend […]

Intentions
If we could learn how to balance rest against effort, calmness against strain, quiet against turmoil, we would assure ourselves of joy in living, and psychological health for life. – Josephine Rathbone Balance. This theme has been coming up a lot across my clients, and in myself, so this coming year I have set an […]
For years I wanted to be older, and now I am. – Margaret Atwood There’s some truth. I remember thinking when I was young(er) about how much I wanted to “grow up” and do all those “adult” things that seemed so fun! I can’t really say if things turned out how I expected, or anticipated, […]
