Fresh ideas to feed your mind, body and soul.
“Mindfulness is a conscious choice made every day to practice self-awareness, curiosity, compassion for self & others, so that you can witness thoughts, emotions, body sensations, and the surrounding environment objectively – through the lens of love.”

Honoring Your Natural Pace
It’s easy to bypass or dismiss our needs when we’re in a hurry. But what I’ve realized is when I listen, when I honor my pace, I discover what I truly need.

Grief is Not Linear, Nor is Our Human Experience – Cultivating Grace Through Grief
Grief is not linear. It’s a process to be honored, embraced, and felt deeply—just like every other part of our human experience. It’s yours to nurture. Allow it to unfold at its own pace. If you’re struggling, don’t hesitate to ask for help. You are not alone.

It’s easy to get stuck in a cycle of believing everyone else has it figured out, that everyone else is living a perfect life. Comparison is a trap that steals our joy, and when I’m not grounded within myself, I often look outside for validation. But here's the thing — comparison is the thief of joy. When we focus on what others have, we lose sight of the beauty and magic of what’s right in front of us.

Gratitude Supports My Attitude
Today, when I asked the Universe for guidance, I was reminded of the simple yet transformative gift of gratitude.
Cultivating Happiness Within
You are deserving of happiness. My hope is that, through learning what truly makes you happy, you’ll feel a greater sense of purpose and meaning. When happiness comes from within, it means there is an ability to find pleasure through one’s own thoughts and actions rather than an outside source. The great news is happiness is a skill that can be learned, and happiness is contagious.
A Playful Mind is an Open Mind
It’s like watching unwatered, untended seeds no longer be in the shadow of weeds but bloom into the most beautiful wild and free garden I never imagined lived within me.
