WARNING: This post contains SO MANY EXCLAMATION POINTS! This week I’ve been focusing on loving my adventurous spirit and letting her out to play a bit more. I chose this focus because at the end of this week… I am leaving for a special adventure with my Love, and fulfilling my life-long dream of going on a CARIBBEAN CRUISE! I will see snippets of some of the most beautiful places on earth! I will enjoy incredible food! I will dress up all fancy-schmancy (at least twice!) I will experience amazing natural highs while interacting with stingrays, zip-lining at crazy-fast speeds,…

I Am Adventurous! I am excited about seeking out new challenges to open my worldview, shift my paradigm, shake and stir my status quo. With each new adventure, I learn something interesting about the world around me, and about myself. Photo credit: Michael Powell Photography

Healthy! Confident! Brave! Strong! Annnnd a I have this sweet, fat kitty who loves a freshly warmed-up lap! Bonus! Post-workout selfie with no makeup, a sweet sweaty glow, lumps bumps and curves doing what they do as I keep working hard towards my better-health goals. I’ve released 30 inches overall and a few pounds of fat that were causing me pain, through loving myself and gently moving my body. To be clear: Healthy Comes In All Shapes And Sizes.

Days turn into weeks turn into months turn into years. What do we learn in our brief time on the wheel of life? I have learned I am more and more grateful for the little things, the niceties, the goodness of humanity. Little things matter, like “please” and “thank you” Warm smiles and friendly waves go a long way Kindness is beautiful Well chosen words and sincere compliments can mend hurt feelings And love, LOVE- always wins

My parents [rest in peace <3] always reminded me that I’m a Dreamer. Sometimes it was said as a compliment, but not usually. I didn’t care, because I always knew it to be true and never saw it as a negative quality. I think it’s part of my magic. In the wake of the most recent acts of terrorism and the following waves of hatred, fear, intolerance and increased ethnocentrism around the globe- I have to Dream. I have to Dream of a better world. I have to Dream of people from all walks of life, just living day by…

Mantra: Be Here Now My friend Mikey and I used to share the phrase “be here now” with each other as a gentle reminder to focus on the Now instead of getting swept up in rehashing the Past, or paralyzed by fearing the what-if’s of the Future. Just Be Present. Just Be Here Now. If even for just that moment of looking at a text message sent from a friend, we could push pause and put the chaos at bay, no matter where we were at or what was going on around us. And if I recall well, there was…

I Am Positive! I love to fill my heart and mind with positive thoughts, images of hope, and inspiring stories of courage & strength. Taking in little pops of positivity throughout my day fuels me, helps me to stay my course and enjoy my journey. I find that with a positive frame of mind, I am more engaged with the world around me and I am better able to notice and respond to seen & felt needs in a way that ripples out blessing and love. Some days, however, I run into some reeeeallllly nasty roadblocks, and like Superman touching…
