friend asked on social media today to share affirmations that have helped me most in life. Her affirmation, “I am enough” encouraged her to start a new business that is blossoming
I pondered the question, as I love to write quotes and have pages of them. But it only took a few moments of meditation to find the one that I wanted to share with her and with you today.
“Find a way to love.” Continue reading “Find a way to love”
Boundless energy
Did the title catch your eye? I meet people in my practice every day who wish for more energy. When we watch a child playing with wild abandon, I believe a common comment is often “if we could only bottle that.” Continue reading “Boundless energy”
Acting grateful
Gratitude, we hear a lot about it. Sometimes when I hear a term often enough, the word becomes familiar and maybe I don’t think a lot about its meaning. “Yeah, thx man,” might not be plunging the depths of the beauty of gratitude but might be where many of us spend our gratitude “quotas.” Continue reading “Acting grateful”
What’s important to you?
I was talking with a group of professionals recently and had an idea. I asked them to think about what’s important to them. I passed out paper and I gave them their assignment. Continue reading “What’s important to you?”

Mindful practices to keep you living life in the present
Often when I talk about meditation with people, their eyes sort of glaze over… like I’m suggesting they do “ONE MORE THING” in an already too busy day.

Leading from wherever you are
Positional Leadership–Leading from wherever you are
Leadership is not about a title or a designation. It’s about impact, influence and inspiration. Impact involves getting results, influence is about spreading the passion you have for your work, and you have to inspire team-mates and customers.

My tribe, my place, my purpose
Our day to day world is filled with conflict. Our media is filled with bad news, crises, battles, scary dark stuff- all filling us with fear. What do we do when we are afraid?
Often, we are a bit more likely to feel like huddling in the darkness (if we don’t physically crawl into the closet and hide.) Continue reading “My tribe, my place, my purpose”
Why do I teach meditation?
Meditation is a tough word. It’s had bad marketing. People think of it as something hard, something unattainable. People judge themselves on their ability to do it or not do it. Often even meditators judge themselves because they don’t meditate regularly, often enough or long enough. That’s a shame. Continue reading “Why do I teach meditation?”
