One minute to zen

Stop what you're doing. Take a breath. Take a rest.  Savour 60 seconds of stress relief. As often as you can.

Always Looking Up

I look up every chance I get. First thing in the morning. On my run. On my way to work. In between classes. Out for a bike ride. From the skylight in my office. On the front porch before I go to sleep. https://youtube.com/shorts/0gMq9BNKvOA?si=4t_RZAoPOFph44ME Connected to Something Bigger The sky connects us to something much... Continue Reading →

The peace you’ve been searching for

Bring yourself back to the present moment. One long deep breath at a time. Herein lies the peace you've been searching for. All day long. Related Post: Just Breathe.

Expanding Time

I was thinking about time tonight. Itโ€™s a never ending circle that starts and stops at the same place. A perpetual loop heightened on a Sunday night. And the only way to slow it down is to breathe in each moment. To notice each ephemeral hour. To rest gently in the embrace of time.

Let peace begin with me

So much happens in the course of a day that is beyond our control. 100 ways to respond.  Only 1 way that feels right. Overslept. Choose peace. Ran out of coffee. Choose peace. Stuck in traffic. Choose peace. Missed a deadline. Choose peace. Technology overload. Choose peace. Nonstop meetings. Choose peace. Bossy coworker. Choose peace. Burnt dinner. Choose peace.... Continue Reading →

The Art of Allowing.

Today vow to allow life to happen on its own terms, not your own. Sometimes your greatest power is in letting things go.

YOU HOLD THE KEY

POWER OF LIGHT Even though we often have little control over the โ€œoutside forcesโ€ in our lives, we can always make a positive difference -ย from the inside out. Start here. Right here. Right now. Be still. Breathe in gratitude. Be thankful for this very moment. Start small. Notice your passing thoughts. Let go. Awareness empowers.... Continue Reading →

Fear and Anxiety Solutions

FEAR ->Forget Everything And Run. Each time we feel threatened (threat is the fundamental definition of stress) our first instinct is to "fight or flight".ย PUFF UP or Shrink.ย  This perpetual "fight or flight" response loop eventually creates a host of secondary problems, above and beyond, the original stressor (or oppressor). It does not matter howย we... Continue Reading →

Nature soothes my soul

This photo was taken on one of my daily hikes up Blue Heron Hill. One of my favourite places to go at the end of a long wintery day. Each breath. Each step. Shifts me higher. To a place of perfect peace. At one with the great big beautiful sky. A divine connection. No words necessary.... Continue Reading →

Writing in One Word

In one word describe how you feel when you write. Writing makes me feel ALIVE! For me, writing is all encompassing. The words are the beat of my heart. The words are the oxygen I breathe. The words are all that I touch, feel, and see. For me, writing is all encompassing. I am the... Continue Reading →

Hold on. Stay strong.

Trust that you are exactly where you need to be. Good or bad. High or low. East or west. Be still. Have faith. Hold on. Stay strong. What you seek is seeking you. https://youtube.com/shorts/6mDigR8RVXU?si=NSu3TDp6aspumwv5

See the light.

Look for the good and you will find it.๐Ÿ’ซ Related post: Shine your light.

Be here now. Be happy now.

99% of blaming, worry, and rumination is a figment of our imagination (aka our ego). Remove the barriers to your joy.ย Trust this moment. Release judgment. Be still. Let go.. Happiness is patiently waiting for you.

Gratitude multiples our treasures.

This rollercoaster life. Life is full of highs and lows. Wins and losses.ย ย Joys and sorrows.ย ย Celebrations and defeats.ย Too much and too little. Make the shift. Nothing shifts us from scarcity to abundance more quickly than aย sudden moment of appreciation and gratitude. Multiply your treasures. Take a moment (this moment) to look up andย breathe in all that... Continue Reading →

The Sweet Spot

Nowhere else to be That moment in the day when you realize you have arrived. And the most interesting part is that you haven't gone anywhere. Instead, you finally come home to the present moment. The here and now. The sweet spot. The only place there is.
