Are You Thriving or Surviving?
Do you wake up every morning excited about the day ahead of you? Or, instead, do you start your workday as I did for many years, with a sense of dread?
Are You Saying Yes to Too Many Things?
I am sooooo guilty of this - of saying yes to too many things. Coaching programs, mastermind groups, webinars, Facebook lives. It seems like each day brings new opportunity to learn how best to improve my health, solidify my relationships, grow my financial planning practice and deepen my spiritual life. Each offer seems like THE one thing I need to actualize my potential and be fufilled!
What are you holding on to?
If the pandemic has taught us anything, there is no such thing as certainty. The best we can do is anticipate the future - and be prepared to pivot when that future arrives and is nothing like what we anticipated!
Root Down to Rise Up
"Root down to rise up" is an instruction given often by yoga teachers. It uses linking language to connect two body parts, something I learned about during my yoga teacher training in 2012. By following this direction, the student enhances his or her pose by grounding or anchoring the lower body, allowing for greater freedom in the upper body. Without a firm foundation, however, the balance and alignment the body needs is compromised.
Empty Your Cup
Empty your cup so that it may be filled. Emptiness is the starting point, when you are in a state of confusion, anger or blaming.....being empty is an opportunity to be filled. - Bruce Lee
What Are You Struggling With?
This September is different than in any year in history. 2020 has shown us that we must continue to learn and manage change, no matter what circumstances life puts before us. This, however, is easier said than done. Much if not most of our stress and emotional pain comes from our resistance to life as it is.
