David Lynch once said “the thing about meditation is: you become more and more you.” I love this because this has been my exact experience. I loathe categorizing people, but I’ve found that folks typically fall into three camps when it comes to meditation, as follows: (i) they love meditation and do it all the… Continue reading Ommmmmmmmmm.

There is almost nothing than I miss more than travel. Really, I mean that. My heart yearns to get the fuck outta dodge. I recognize that some have felt comfortable traveling during this time and it is not my intention to shame you. It is a choice that I’ve made for a variety of reasons.… Continue reading Let’s Get Out of Here…

I’ve never been a fake smiler. Truly. I’m not posturing or trying to impress you when I say that. It’s the truth. I’ve just always been one of those people who reserves smiling for when it counts; when it’s genuine and quite frankly, when it matters. The problem is that a lot went to shit… Continue reading Smile Though Your Heart is Breaking…

The last year or so has been challenging for so many for so many different reasons. I’ve shared more than once that outside of everything else, I really struggled with the notion of how selfish and self-directed I saw people become. Or maybe they had always been that way and I was just able to… Continue reading Help Me, Help You. Help You, Help Me.

Someone I am connected to on social media posted an interesting question last week. She asked what habits we’ve put into practice that have materially changed our lives. I responded to her post advising that I make sure I get time outside every single day. It doesn’t matter if it’s snowing or raining or windy… Continue reading Fresh Air. Do Care.

We always say that money can’t buy happiness but then we push ourselves to work a trillion hours. Not everyone. Some of us are smarter than others and some of us are just plain old lazy. Generally speaking, we don’t often advocate for our own work-life balance. Not even a little. It’s tragic really. I… Continue reading People Needing People.

Walter Reisch, a director, once said “Tired minds don’t plan well. Sleep first, plan later.” I would love to tell you that this isn’t true because of what an abysmally shitty sleeper I am, but it is. Sleep is critical for the body to function well. It allows for a very necessary reset. When we… Continue reading Tired of Being Tired? Me too.

I was doing a little online perusing lately and stumbled upon an article entitled “10 Scientifically Proven Ways to Be Incredibly Happy” (https://www.inc.com/jeff-haden/10-scientifically-proven-ways-to-be-incredibly-happy-wed.html). I want to disclaim that the article was written in 2013. However, who the fuck cares? Like science proven these factors? That seems awfully legit to me. Of course, we are living… Continue reading Let’s Get Happy…

Do you ever wonder how we got here? Not Friday, though there are some weeks where that is a mystery too. Do you ever ponder how we’ve dug ourselves into the societal patterns and ruts we cling to so fervently? Aleksandar Hemon who wrote ‘Nowhere Man’ and ‘The Lazarus Project’, penned the following: “If you… Continue reading Eat the Ice Cream.

I’ve heard too many friends tell me that they’ve given up on the idea of having what seems to them an ideal relationship. I use the caveat of personal preference because we are all so different and the crazy part is that it doesn’t really matter, because the shift away from that “goal” is universal.… Continue reading Should you make an investment or not?
