Welcome to the unofficial beginning of summer! All the summer feels - BBQs, swimming pools, parades, constant activity, excitement, and spontaneity. For me, summer yang (fiery/assertive/active) energy screams Growing with the Flow!  In the same way, we rested,...

Do you remember when cruise control in vehicles first became a thing? When I used it for the first time, it was wild! Think about barreling down the highway without touching the gas pedal. The car can accelerate or at least stay at a steady pace super cool and...

Whoaaa, this eclipse season has been super interesting - thank goodness we are already a week in! Lunar Eclipses are viewed as being deeply transformative times that can bring abrupt and sudden change. I have been working on this blog for several days and staring at a...

I'm excited to share the challenge I started last week…#40 Days of Devotion. I already feel the power of sitting in stillness with gratitude and prayer. Practicing stillness in the mornings is not new to me, but adding intention, prayer, and gratitude makes a marked...
