Whether you buy into this notion or not, that doesn’t make it any less true. Yes, I recognize that this may come across as hooky-spooky craziness, but let me present you a different perspective. Do you like our present reality? I know that it’s entirely possible that you do, and if that is so, rock

Yes, there is some pretty awful stuff happening in the world around us.

Unless you are living under a rock, and to some degree I kind of envy you if you are, you see the travesty happening in the United States Senate currently.

Sometimes letting go is challenging because deep emotions can be connected to the thing you need to release. No matter how logical you might style yourself as being, nor no matter how hard you try to not hold onto emotions, this can be complicated. Yes, I have written many times that we are all able

It is on this day that those who practice Judaism ask God to forgive them for all the sins they may have committed during the year, and once again inscribe them into the Book of Life for the New Year.

Positivity can be found anywhere. How does the game Cards Against Humanity have anything to do with positivity? Believe me when I tell you, it can generate massive positivity. If you’re unfamiliar with the game, you are dealt out a number of white cards with various words and phrases, some benign, some…various degrees of raunchy and/or gross and/or nonsensical.
