During this pandemic of the Coronavirus, we are all being asked to dig a little deeper than we have been. What do You Control? There is so much “out there” we want to control, try to control, such as those we love, our work, our income, our homes, the economy, other people, just to feel […]
“I feel so alone,” a friend of mine said. “I’m cutting myself off from my partner and other people. I’m trying to sell this business and don’t know what I’m going to do with myself after. My family is wanting things from me, but they never ask or seem to care about what’s going on […]
Don’t you love the words, “let go”? They bring to mind that old commercial in the 80’s of the Nestle Tea plunge, where the guy falls backward into a pool of water with eyes closed and a big grin on his face. Totally trusting, totally carefree. And isn’t it interesting that we could all live […]

At first, it can seem like your world’s been turned upside-down. Everyone and everything annoys you. At the same same time, you’re trying to reassure yourself there’s nothing really wrong and why can’t you be nicer? Or maybe you’re trying very hard to get yourself out of the funk you’re in by being grateful for […]
I know, I know. In a world that values action, inaction can seem like self-sabotage. At the very least, it feels incredibly wrong and indicative of losing out in some way. Inaction is uncomfortable.

Her mind had been ruminating over some big questions lately, regarding a new home and career. The future loomed large, but instead of researching answers, she found herself spending a few hours googling beach retreats.
