A client recently sent me an email asking me if I was always “on,” always up and positive every day. She described how she wants to live that way, but sometimes she gets down and gets swept up in the drama and emotions of life. She wanted to know how the “masters” live. Well, I’m […]
We get so caught up in the drama of our lives—the planning for the future, the worry, the thinking of the past—that we forget to notice the beauty of the moment. We absolutely should have wonderful plans for our future, but we only live our lives one moment, one breath, one heartbeat at a time. […]

Jimmy Buffett wrote: “Changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes, nothing remains quite the same.” Oh, how right he was. The only constant in life is change, and we all intuitively know this. Yet, change is something we offer the most resistance to and experience the most pain from when we resist it. Marriages often end […]
When you’ve made a mistake, it’s easy to think negative thoughts about yourself. When you are sick, it’s easy to think thoughts of sickness and disease and how the timing of it is not a good thing. When you don’t have enough money to pay the bills, it’s easy to think thoughts of poverty, scarcity, […]
