Mindset

Day 300 of meditating without skipping a day! Just a couple more months and I will have accomplished my goal of 1 year solid. I got a bit of a late start with this goal, so when the new year comes around I will just overlap my goals. Okay, to be honest, I have already…

I was recently thinking about creating a hummingbird garden in the backyard that would double as a meditation garden, I was thinking it could be a place of calm peace for me. But then it got me thinking about how creating that space in ones own mind is even more important because then we carry…

Fear and Anxiety are a constant for many. I have found for me one thing that can cause it is holding on tightly to what we have and striving so hard to make what we want to happen. Surrendering to what comes in life is a challenge. I have always been a MAKE things happen…
