Transitions and the 3-phases
Welcome to November! This month I thought the topic “transitions” would be interesting to discuss. We all go through changes in our lives. They can be stressful, life changing, and scary.

Your Thoughts Control You
I am understanding more and more how our health, our wealth, our happiness — our everything depends on our thoughts. The adage “What you think about; comes about” is so true. I’ve known and tried to practice this for years; however, today I have a greater understanding of why it is so important. Lately I have been studying Bruce Lipton, Shamini Jain, and Jean Houston among others. Although they come from varied backgrounds, had their own unique experiences, and enjoy… Read more »
