I followed a hunch and it led to a pleasant surprise.

Mindful Monday #184 – The Strength Of Your Relationships
I woke up early Sunday morning with today’s wisdom. The sun was not even up yet. When I wake up that early, I make it a point not to check my alarm. If I don’t know the time, I feel it gives me a chance to fall back to sleep. When I know the time,…
Mindful Monday #183 – The Backburner
Wisdom is everywhere. We hear it from our teachers or parents/ guardians when we are young. We gain wisdom with each experience we have from childhood and beyond. We may read wisdom in poems or books or hear it in lectures or conversations. We may even speak our personal wisdom to our friends and colleagues….
Mindful Monday #182 – Significant Relationships
Happy Labor Day! This morning started unplanned and showed me that beauty often emerges from that space. I woke up naturally this morning at 5:30am. I hoped my body would go back to sleep, but I started to reflect on moments and understandings of my year of you. About a month ago, my mom asked…
Mindful Monday #181 – Restore Balance
Happy Monday! As summer winds down we may find ourselves at the start of something new. We may have a new schedule or be at a new school/ career or in a new home or city. Or maybe we are experiencing life without someone like a parent, friend, a partner or a special co-worker. Or…
Mindful Monday #179 – Let Your Conscience Be Your Guide
Our morality and intentions of both our words and actions will be challenged.
Mindful Monday #178 – What is Right?
Breathe in. Breathe out. Breathe in. Breathe Out. We have had a lot of challenging news, over the past few weeks. It feels like it’s all becoming far too common. I was trained in Level 1 of Trauma Resiliency in March, and since then trauma is another lens in which I see the world. I hope…
Mindful Monday #176 : The Right Step
What will you do next? I hate that question because it’s such a Western question to ask. We live in a country of doers where time is valued for the money you make aka time equals money. People are perceived to only have value when they are adding to the bottom line for themselves or…
Mindful Monday #175 – Play Ball
I know I made the right choice. I know I am on the right path. This part of my life is over. Last week, I felt this finality for the first time and I have felt it every day since. I knew I was leaving, since October, and it gave me time to say my good…
Prayers Guided by the Universe
I am moving. It is happening in only 25 days. I left space, these past three moths, for my life or the universe to keep me in Los Angeles. Every time I meditated on it, it was affirmed that it is time for me to move. Even towards the middle of February, I started to…
Mindful Monday #174 – Driven By Greed
It’s an ugly word, with an unflattering meaning, yet more and more people are dancing with G R E E D and getting into bed with it these days. The desire to have power over others via money, taking others power or silencing is driven and rooted in the ego. The Ego’s Mantra, when it…
Mindful Monday #172 – Your Untapped Strength
Happy Monday! I stepped into my 2nd yoga class of 2018. Class provided space for a humbling and empowering realization that I did not see it coming. During the last few hours, on the last day of my silent meditation, which was the first day of the new year, I hurt my right foot. We required…
Mindful Monday #171 – Don’t Lose Your Zest
2017 was filled with several challenges. I wrote vaguely about some of these challenges in a few posts, others I kept private and shared with a handful of friends. I was given a breath before each challenge and I am thankful for each breath I was given. I didn’t have a lot of energy or…
Mindful Monday #170 – Be Your Own Role Model
It’s Monday! By the time you read this I will be wrapping up a 4 day silent meditation at Joshua Tree. Yes, that is right I am currently at a 4 day silent meditation! I can’t believe it either! Something shifted in the fall of 2016. Around that time, I realized I would be okay…
Mindful Monday #169 – Mindfulness at Work
While at work, be mindful of your environment. It may help direct you toward a new path.
