On your Journey is the Joy
I found my inspiration last week in a small package…my six year old Son. He was struggling with kindergarten ending and camp starting. All of those changes; transitions were a lot for him. I realized that the milestones…the big moments….like the last day of Kindergarten; are only important because of all the days leading up…
Read MoreIt’s your Attitude, Not your Aptitude that determines your Altitude
As I have mentioned, we recently adopted a puppy. I was anxious and fearful leading up to her arrival and began to feel relief once she actually came. Now, a few weeks into the journey, I have been inspired by all that I have already gotten back from the experience. What you put in…
Read MoreBloom where you are Planted
This winter was a challenge here on the East Coast. I found myself getting angry and frustrated quite easily. Once Spring came, my mood lightened and I had very high expectations for a glorious, warm, sunny season. Unfortunately, for the last 6 weeks or so, that had not been the case. Finally, there was a…
Read MoreFind Gratitude for Sameness and Find Your Inspiration
I just got back from a trip to beautiful St. Martin. It has become our yearly little getaway, my husband and I…an opportunity to reconnect, relax and be together. It is a strange experience to go back to the same place several times in a row. I felt it very strongly this time as we…
Read MoreBe a Bucket Filler and your Bucket will always be Full
It all started a few weeks ago. I overheard my children arguing and my son, through his tears, called my daughter a “bucket dipper”. I stopped and tried to process what that was…name calling is a punishable offense in our house typically. I asked him to repeat it so I could make sure I heard…

Recently I have been inspired by the Breath (So Hum) and the Gaze (Drishti) as tools to help connect us more fully in our Yoga Practice. This past week my hope was to use these techniques into action together to practice the goal we all seek to attain; To be present in our LIVES…
Read MoreSo Hum. I Am That.
I had a So Hum kind of a week last week. The kind of week where it feels as if you have a million balls in the air with no chance to catch them all. And drop a ball I did. I missed an important meeting with my daughter’s teacher. Even after I realized and…
Read More“Embrace your Place” to be happy
After returning from my sunny, warm vacation, I could feel the never-ending winter getting to me. Last week when my daughter asked me if it was EVER going to be warm again, I had that tiny inkling of doubt myself even as I answered, “Of course it will”. Being angry and frustrated about the weather…
Read MoreTurn your Happiness Inside Out
Last week I learned of two different young people, both seeming to have promising futures, who had taken their own lives. I experienced a wave of emotions from sadness to panic and even curiosity at why any young person with their whole life in front of them would feel that ending that life was the…
Read MoreFind Your Great-Fullness
Gratefulness is a word we use often, but how do we truly cultivate it in our hearts? As I began to think about it, I took apart the word gratefulness and discovered that by playing with the spelling a bit it can be broken up into Great and Fullness. How do we cultivate Great-Fullness in our hearts,…
