TAKE your Time, There is never enough.
“TAKE your time, there is never enough”. I heard those words at the end of a talk I attended recently. It started me thinking. We use “Take your time” often to remind people to relax, slow down, to not stress but what about another interpretation…to TAKE your time…to own it and make the most of it…

I have taken a few weeks off from writing this blog. It was something on the to-do list that just wasn’t getting done so I took it as a sign to step away. I have been sharing my inspiration with my classes but wasn’t finding the focus to sit and write them down. So I…
Read MoreConnect to your strength below the surface
Life is like the ocean. There are calm days and rocky ones and all types in between. When our “ocean conditions” are rough we can get swept up in the turmoil on the surface or we can make the choice to go deeper. Two quotes together inspired my message last week. “In quietness and calmness…
Read MoreLittle Moments Build a Joyful Journey
Vacations are like miniature versions of our life journey…there is a beginning, middle and an end…there are some big, wonderful moments along the way and many many small moments. The more PRESENT we are on our journey, the more we get to connect to the joy from not just the big moments, but…

It’s been a couple of weeks since I have last written. I have been struggling with not only the time and focus but also the desire to write my thoughts. I write when I have something to say and I have had that less in these recent weeks. However, it feels as if the desire…

I find myself conflicted on the principle of New Years Resolutions. I believe that the journey of self exploration and growth is gradual and continual and when we resolve ourselves to something…it has to come from within our hearts…not because the calendar tells us to. However, I do respect that these times allow us to ask…
Read MoreLet your worries be “Up in the Air”
The holiday season finds us all a bit on edge I imagine. I know it finds me that way. So last week, when I was asked my suggestions for staying calm during this time, I took a step back and embraced the frenzy in order to find inspiration. What I realized was that life was…
Read MoreInhale to find your Inspiration
As I continue on my Anatomy journey there are so many amazing things about the physical body that inspire me. Last week, we learned about the bones and joints of the Axial body (including the Spine and Ribcage). We also read a bit about the Anatomical process of the breath. Amazingly, taking air into the…
Read MoreNourish yourself so you can Serve Others
I recently read an article written by Tim Cook, CEO of Apple. In this article Tim explains how he tries to hold himself to the words of Dr. Martin Luther King who said “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is “What are you doing for others?” This quote inspired Tim to come forward and share…
