Be A Tree

Today was spent having our annual campfire in the middle of our garden burning sticks and winter mess around the yard. It was fitting that after a day spent out in the trees and brush, my favorite nature columnist, North Cairn, would write about what we could learn from trees. After reading the ideas she . . . → Read More: Be A Tree

Hugo – You Should Go

For St. Patty’s Day today my husband and I caught Hugo at the local cinema. This was, hands down, one of the best movies I’ve seen in a long time. A whole new side of Martin Scorsese you shouldn’t miss.

There is only one word to describe the story – kindness. This movie displayed . . . → Read More: Hugo – You Should Go

Store It In The Heart

Being a Type A personality and having a lot of them for friends, this little gratitude “burst” hit home for me today.

How Time Flies

Yesterday the family got together to celebrate our dad’s 80th birthday. There are 18 of us, so a family gathering is always a party. My sister remarks how quick this year is going by.

The Benefits

“Lie still in savasana. This is where you get the benefits of the pose!”

How many times in the last 19 months of yoga have I heard that statement? At least once a day. I’m still not good at being still. My body is deceiving because I can lie there without moving a muscle. . . . → Read More: The Benefits

Is Your “Yes” On The Table?

Currently I’m reading a new series by Karen Kingsbury. The book I’m starting with is called “Leaving”. The title intrigued me do to my recent battle overcoming loss. In this book, a young man had a challenging job offer put before him. After the interview, walking out to the car, he’d all but decided to . . . → Read More: Is Your “Yes” On The Table?
