Living Life On Purpose
“Doing something on purpose” had a negative connotation to me. Giving a whole new spin to this idea, my beloved teacher allowed me to revisit my perception/understanding of this phrase.
Lifting the Holiday Spirit
Self care is always a good idea during holiday season.
We know that taking care of our bodies, minds, and spirits can allow for a more positive time. However, it’s very easy to fall into any number of “potholes”(stress, to do list, etc.). When we focus exclusively on the “pothole(s)”, we squeeze out life, joy, and fun. The holidays start feeling like “a race to the finish line”.

So, let’s reframe.
