Quick Ways to Reduce Stress in the Moment
Stress is our favorite antagonist. We like to blame it for cancer and chronic illness. We complain that it tears apart our marriages and our friendships, undermines our productivity, and quite literally keeps us awake at night. We stress about how much stress we are under. But, when we get clear on all this, we [...]
The Power of Friendship
Just got off the phone with a good friend. We compared notes about writing assignments, commiserated about book sales, talked about her dogs and my kid and even lamented that the weather in Charlotte is too hot. The forecast where I am too cold. That’s all. We didn’t figure out how to stop oil from spilling into [...]
Clean Out the Mental Clutter and End the Self Sabotage
With spring just a week away, it’s time for a little spring cleaning. But, this time when you sort through the closet and clean out the drawer, tossing out all the worn items or things you no longer need, take a minute to also clean out that mental clutter that’s keeping you from enjoying your [...]
Clean Out the Closet and Ease Your Stress
For the last year, I’m embarrassed to say, my nemesis was a closet in the hallway. The one where the dishtowels were folded and then jammed between a file box and the wall, below the children’s Motrin, which was next to the paper plates, of course, and the and the nail polish and the blender [...]
Cross-talk can fire up our brain function
About a year ago, I mixed things up around her. In a big way. Well, sort of. I mean it felt like a big way. I moved my computer mouse from the right side of my desk, where it could be easily reached by my dominant right hand, to the left side of my desk. [...]
Creativity adds life, energy to the same old routine
My daughter has this ongoing project where she takes trash, bottle caps and bubble wrap, pencil shavings, scraps of ribbon, and tin foil, packing peanuts and popcorn kernels and just about anything else she can find to create a world on a flat of cardboard. With a glue gun, singular pockets of an egg carton [...]
Slow your “life rhythm” and healthy eating habits will follow
Last week I was watching my kids compete over who could make their ice cream cone last the longest. As adults we would usually find ourselves gobbling down that ice cream as fast as possible between work, school, gym, carpools, and countless errands. Well grownups, we are missing out. Not only are we missing out [...]
Six ways to stay grounded
I no longer strive to keep it all in balance. What I’m going for is groundedness. A way to stay connected to myself and my inner source even when day around me ebbs and flows with errands and stresses and opportunities and unexpected demands. Even when things are out of balance, you can find peace [...]
How to make resolutions you can keep
Tired of feeling like a failure every time you set (and break) your New Year’s resolution? Statistics tell us that most of people give up on their resolutions within a couple of months. But, you can stop ripping yourself over failed resolutions, and make positive lasting changes in 2013 by thinking of your resolutions a [...]
Author of Wojo’s World offers some insight into the funny business
On Monday, author Michele Wojciechowski wrote about how she can find the funny in even the difficult moments in life and that kind of humor is the secret to coping in crisis. In this Q&A she offers some thoughts about humor, how she writes it, experiences it and how we can all find a little more to [...]
