No matter what situation or experience you are having, good or bad, you have a choice. Why? Because you can decide how to think, feel, and act upon whatever happens to you. Every single day we face choices. Get out of bed, or hit snooze? Watch TV or read? Workout or

I recognize that in the face of the world today, and all the insanity nationally and internationally, seeking out positivity for yourself may seem like a selfish notion. With so many people facing adversity, cruelty, devastation, tangible and intangible bad things, doesn’t it make you selfish if you seek positivity and good things? No, because there are limited things we can all do

When we say negative things, we tend to create bad feelings. When we say positive things, we tend to create good feelings. It’s important to keep this in mind when we are talking to other people. But it is also of equal importance to keep this in mind when we are

It takes very little for context to get skewed, or for someone to decide to stir a pot and create

One of the key tenets of the self-help movement has been the numerous concepts presented to us about the “power of positive thinking”. What many take away from this notion is that if you think positive, you will create a better life for yourself. The problem is, that’s only half the battle, so to speak.

Because when we look at the world around us, and all the troubles going on, we might just find that having our own happiness makes us feel guilty.

However, getting the head (thought) and the heart (feeling) aligned can be challenging. One way to get the head and heart in sync is to be more mindful. Mindfulness, or awareness, can take us to all kinds of incredible places. This is not awareness of the outside world…it is awareness of ourselves. It is a matter of

When we are patient, we allow for the time that may be necessary for change. When we do not focus on why we need this thing or that right here, right now…we can better focus on the thing coming to us.
