Before you start this email - reconnect to yourself—> the breath, visualize the breath from the crown of your head to your root and feet and then take the exhale and follow from feet to crown. Release any physical holding or tightness. Scan your physical, mental-emotional, and spirit bodies for any messages. Then finish this sentence: I embody play as ________… We all embody play differently. Myself, I embody play as movement. You need play intentionally in your life to promote overall...

So, Reader remember when I said I was getting a space!!! It’s real. It’s happening in real time. Then I got amped, did some promo things and I had momentum! Then life happened ( I got sick, a child got sick, lost some sleep, nutritionally I was wonky) and I completely got de- railed. Has this ever happened to you?!!!! One moment you are SO crushing it / in the flow and then you get “ka-blammo’ed”. (This is a straight up kids graphic novel term 😆). Frustrating. Two things that I do when this...

Wow, Reader, January has been fun and now you're on to February. Though there is some definite "hallmark greeting card love" going on, this is ALWAYS an opportunity to: LIVE IN LOVE. What does that mean to you, to LIVE IN LOVE? For me, its realizing that the love begins inside rather than outside. More specifically, loving all the parts of myself - the growth and the evolving parts - as well as the stuck and hard to look at parts. Being willing to open to the inner listening to reveal,...

So excited to share this, Reader! I committed to renting a healing space to see clients in Palos Verdes (if you are local - it's 777 Silver Spur Rd). I am sharing the space with two awesome healing women, Noelle and Colleen (a chiropractor and an acupuncurist/ healer - I put their info up on my website). But like, once I committed with my whole body YES! I also had the "TRY WAIT, SLOW DOWN, is this it!" self talk happening. Has this ever happened to you? Your intuition said go for it - then...

Exhale and SMILE, Reader! Here you are in another day to LIVE in LOVE or LIVE and LOVE. 😂Have you ever tried to astonish / delight / surprise a 12-13 yr. old boy? Well, I can tell you that being able to sing some classic METALLICA songs - helped my son and I have a JOYFUL and super fun CONNECTION! (how is Metallica his jam BTW and also 🙏to my 7/8th grade crew of boys I loved hanging out with at St. Lawrence Martyr school!) How can you bring joy into your life this week? What are you already...

I’m going to tell ya, Reader, though I don’t ”need” my phone - it was sure nice on vacation for my phone to accidentally take a snorkel! I GOT to miss calls between 29 December and 3 January. What that let me do was - check in on my inner call system. What have I learned this past year? What am I composting for behaviors / mindsets? (mine: up late reading, rushing around, negative thoughts, not listening well, reacting > creating) One of my favorite tools for checking in with my learnings and...

I have been seriously down my "up too late reading" rabbit hole. This is one of my kryptonites! I don't need to watch TV or do something on my phone, but reading my fantasy fiction novels - that gets me. So I am uncomfortably tired lately. Which I don't like because then I am also "uncomfortably emotional" for the rest of my family. I am sure that's not their favorite. How about you, Reader? What's your kryptonite - and specifically do you have anything that keeps you from getting good sleep...

Hiya and happy new moon and almost solstice!!! I feel like the world is vivid and so exciting for Christmas and the holidays. In my house of young boys, 8 and 12, its very magical and sometimes super LOUD! Whether its their joy on the trampoline or the Alvin and the Chipmunks songs (or now my older one is into some Metallica now)on Alexa at full blast… You get the picture. Life can be loud outside our mind. But inside it doesn’t need to be. When life is loud, I got to find a way to turn it...
