Why I still make choices I know aren’t good for me

Food Addiction and Procrastination I just got back from a trip to South Carolina. It was so nice to get away with my friend, enjoy the sunshine, time away, and a change of scenery. We went to the Myrtle Beach area. And I hate to say it, but I didn’t make the best choices when […]

Give to Gain: The Power of Sustainable Giving

Celebrating International Women’s Day Tuesday, I had the honor of speaking at a company in Tolland, CT, that was celebrating its female employees for International Women’s Day. The audience was about 35 women (on site), (4 brave men showed up), and others joined in virtually from around the world. The theme of the event this […]

Give to Gain but Self-Care First

V-Day Prep As Valentine’s Day approaches, I find myself thinking less about cards and candy—and more about the quiet, meaningful ways that we love, give, and show up for others in our lives. This past weekend, I spent three hours with the kiddos watching them make Valentine cards for one another. Construction paper, markers, stickers, […]

Some stress is good for you

A First Time Experience Last week, I did something that challenged me—physically, mentally, and spiritually. I completed a three-day water fast. Yup. I did that. Not something I’ve ever even wanted to attempt in the past – mostly due to fear. Here’s Why As we age, our values evolve. Our beliefs shift as life teaches […]

Sometimes the Gravy Just Shatters

Managing Expectations: A Holiday Survival Skill Many years ago, it may have been my very first holiday after being married, I was preparing a meal and was determined to get everything right. You see Paul’s parents were coming over for dinner, (a rare occasion), and I wanted to really wanted to impress them. I had roasted […]

When someone doesn’t share my perspective

Perspective Is Everything—Especially During the Holidays This week, as we’ve been choosing paint colors and design features for our new rec room, I’ve been reminded again just how different our perspectives can be. What feels like a warm blue to me looks cold and unappealing to Paul. How can I get him to see it the way […]

Do you find it hard to trust?

Do you trust easily or is it hard for you? I don’t know about you but I get so angry at all the scams constantly bombarding us these days, but I’ve gotten pretty good at spotting them and intuitively knowing who I cannot trust. Now, scams are one thing, yet trusting people in your life […]

Choosing balance not perfection

Finding Balance in the Busy Season Fall is in full swing, and wow — has it been a whirlwind. Between the trainings I’m preparing and delivering (five classes in the next four weeks!), the hypnotherapy course I’m taking, and the home projects piling up — new windows, bathroom and kitchen renovations, and estimates for finishing […]

Peace begins within

A 40-Year Journey This weekend, Paul and I took our granddaughter, Molly Mae, to a very special place — the Peace Pagoda in Leverett, Massachusetts. Paul’s sister, Jacquie, was a Buddhist nun for about 15 years and traveled all over the world walking and working for peace. Forty years ago, she helped establish this very […]

Sacred Space, Clear Mind: A Lesson from Moving

Creating Sacred Space for Mental Health It’s been three weeks since Paul and I moved into our new condo, and little by small, it’s starting to feel like ours. It’s weird, but those first two weeks felt more like a vacation—like we were staying in someone else’s home. Everything felt unfamiliar. Our routines felt off. And […]
