MIND. BODY. SOUL.
We all have them. It could be a pen, a necklace, an old stuffed animal, or even a movie. Little bits of comfort that make us feel either at home, calmer, and/or just comforted. It's helpful to have these things, especially in our most stressful environments - such as work. And sometimes it's nice to ...
Ever notice how one line from a song (or poem) can tug on your heart strings. It reminds you of something past, or something you once had. It could make you smile, or nostalgic, and perhaps even hopeful of something to come. Every time I hear the song "here's to the night" by Eve 6, ...
One of my favorite things to do on a relaxing day is go to a bookstore and peruse the newest fiction books, especially the thrillers and suspense novels. Typically I'll walk out with one new book, especially to support the local book retailers despite being able to buy online for cheaper. It would be a ...
When you're past your mid twenties, time just continues to fly faster and faster, with each passing year. It's both a blessing and a curse in my opinion. In your 30s, it's like lightning speed (at least it seems that way, so far). With my next birthday literally around the corner I can't but reflect ...
More and more often I see folks denying themselves their paid vacation time, especially the younger folks. And there are others who go on vacation but log on each day, and basically work, just from another location. Does this sound right? No, no, and no. Reasons I've heard and felt myself at times for not going ...

Written by contributing blogger, Daniela Forte. I have held space for everyone. Been doing it since I was a child. I didn’t realize this until recently when someone pointed it out. I thought, “Shit, I’ve let everyone in!” Were you a good person, you had a space, a bad person you had a space too. ...
Sometimes we need a breather. Even for 5 minutes to take a walk around the block. Sometimes we need a whole day or weekend. Whatever it may be, I've learned music helps me boost the emotions or mood I need or want just a little bit more. Next time you go to let go, try this ...
Each of us are unique...and it would be damn boring if we weren't. No one wants to be telling the same jokes or having the same level of intelligence...we would not get as far in life or in society if we were. Could you imagine not having Einstein? What makes you, you? I know I have some ...
Where do you start? Life is just plain complicated. We run around in circles sometimes, trying to get the result we want by doing the same thing over and over. Sounds a bit like insanity. We wish we could simplify our daily lives. Make our future clearer. Find a way to solve our issues with ...
