  • Day 107 – A Wonderful Life

    Volunteering at Hospice is a humbling experience. You see what is important in life. People. Relationships. At the end of life, the most common sentence I hear is: ”What a wonderful life I’ve had. I wish I realized it sooner.” It is the languaging that dictates behaviour. Would of… Could of… Should of… When people…

  • Day 87 – Stop. Pause.

    When life hands us lemons, it can be overwhelming.There is always time to stop and embrace the pause. A deep breath and some self-audit time. Is this important? Is this an emergency? Do I and can I take time to stop and pause? When we lead with logic and balance life’s lemons in this way,…

  • Day 69 – What I’m Loving

    I love to pause each day and embrace all that I love in the present moment. The summer affords us so many beautiful places, spaces, people and things to embrace. I am loving sitting on our dock and enjoying all that Mother Nature gives us. The ripples in the lake, the direction of the wind,…

  • Day 65 – Inspiration

    I become inspired each day. I allow my senses to be fully open to receive. Observation. Silence. An acknowledgement with no conversation. A quiet smile. Each day offers us the ability to offer or be inspired. You will find what you are searching for — stop looking. A self-directed, open mind will take you that…

  • Day 62 – Sounds

    When you awake each day, what sounds do you hear? When we can embrace calm into our lives, it offers us so much. When you sit with yourself, equanimity is present. Mental calmness. Composure. A moment in time. The sound of nature. A bird singing. The rain drops. Silence is where you will find what…

  • Day 59 – Memory Lane

    I love to reminisce about my life. I think about all the wins – how hard I worked to get them. I have learned from all the failures. I have grieved all the losses. I have been educated about the trauma. When we spend intentional time thinking about our life and all the memories (good,…

  • Day 55 – Joy

    When you can find the joy your heart is leading you to seek, it’s truly welcoming. A joy that has sat within you for a long time. Awaiting to rise to the surface. To enjoy each moment. Time for self. Time with self. Peace. Quiet. Surrender. Find the white space in your day — it’s…

  • Day 52 – What’s the Rush?

    Time. We all have it. 24 hours a day. 365 days each year. Why do some people manage time so beautifully and others never have enough? Is it obligation? Inability to prioritize? Lack of seeing the realness of what is truly important? Enter the thought of having a magic wand. You have limited time left…

  • Day 46 – Snippet

    I love to write. It’s a daily habit of pause and pure enjoyment. Blogs, newsletters, posts, articles. No obligation, a free space of self-directed, self-love. True expression in snippets. Tiny bits of words, thoughts, emotions in meaningful alignment. Self-Care is the start and continuation of a beautiful journey of discovery. Enjoy every moment. ❤️

  • Day 39 – Inside Job

    When was the last time you embraced silence? The visceral level of hearing the dreams held in your heart. All that we seek is truly inside our heart. For some people, it has been buried deep, locked out and a huge barrier is blocking the life they wish to see, have and BE. Pause in…
