Why You Must Take a Break

Why You Must Take a Break

By Polly Campbell on August 15, 2011

I  know, I know, with kids and work and soccer practice and all the expenses of life, it might be tough to get away for an afternoon, let alone a week. But, do it anyhow. Make the time. Vacations – a break from the regular routine – contribute to peace of mind, good health and [...]

How curiosity adds fun to familiar relationships

How curiosity adds fun to familiar relationships

By Polly Campbell on July 20, 2011

Remember in the beginning when you were so connected you could finish each other’s sentences? You knew just what your partner was thinking and you hung on every breath thinking he or she was the smartest, bestest thing out there?

Allow For Freedom Of Mistakes

By Polly Campbell on July 4, 2011

How to find the flow

How to find the flow

By Polly Campbell on June 1, 2011

One thing about flow – when you’re in it, it just feels good. Life just moves easier. You feel creative, inspired, energized; good things swarm into your life and when the difficulties appear the right people and things literally flow in to help you move through them. Sometimes those feelings of flow may last only [...]

Giving to others makes room for goodness in your own life

Giving to others makes room for goodness in your own life

By Polly Campbell on May 25, 2011

When looking at the growth rings of ancient trees Bigwigs can tell a lot about their history. Times of drought and war and volcanic activity and storms are all reflected in those delicate rings and the spaces between them. Abundance too is obvious and reflected by the tree’s growth. Each ring – the year of [...]

The Nature of Desire: Why it’s wise to want

The Nature of Desire: Why it’s wise to want

By Polly Campbell on May 9, 2011

There are things I want. Things I wish for. I desire more financial abundance. I desire to live with a greater sense of peace and patience. I want to find a way to contribute to the world in a bigger way. I want to drop another 15 pounds. A new stove wouldn’t be so bad [...]

Stop the self sabotage and step into your greatness

By Polly Campbell on May 2, 2011

We sabotage our greatness in plenty of ways. You know when it happens. You’re in the midst of  one of those great weeks, about to hit the top rung on the ladder of life,  everything going your way, when, all of sudden, the rung breaks. You lock your keys in the car, or people stop [...]

Make it up and make it real

By Polly Campbell on April 6, 2011

I’m big on visualization. I believe (and have seen it work in my own life), that if you acknowledge where you’re at in life, but focus on where you want to be you can pull the energies, people, things, and any other components you need to get there into your reality. I found Mr. J [...]
