Change and uncertainty are major stresses for most of us, and two things we’re bound to experience plenty of in this life. So, stop getting all freaked out when the unexpected occurs and shift your focus to managing the uncertainty and thriving despite it. Come on now, you can do this. Start by changing how [...]
Each week I make a to-do list with a naive certainty that everything will come to pass. I act like nothing else will come into my life at exactly 8:30 when it’s time to write the blog post, or that my husband will always walk in at 4:15, or that I’ll find just what I [...]
Want to feel more creative and inspired – raise the roof, literally. Research by the bigwigs from the University of Minnesota Center for Spirituality and Healing showed that ceiling height can affect the thought process. People were more detail oriented when working under an eight foot ceiling and more abstract when the ceiling was raised [...]
My space is cozy and tidy. The papers that are on my desk are in neat piles. A few loose newspaper clippings are scattered about. Three books sit stacked on the corner and box of pens lays along the outer edge of that desk. This is just about right. Too much clutter, and I become [...]

I am a goal-minded girl. I love sitting down at the end of every year, with my pad and pen in hand, plotting and planning all the things I want to accomplish in the upcoming days, weeks, year. But, several years ago, I realized that while specific planning did help me reach some of my goals, at [...]
