4.3.20 School is nearly done (my certificate in Integrative Health & Wellness Coaching) and it is time to get out into the world and serve as a genuine, health coach to actual, private-pay clients! It is kinda scary (truth be told) but it is also very exhilarating! I’ve been wondering just what to say to …
3.30.20 Today I listened to Brene Brown’s new podcast, Unlocking Us, available at: https://brenebrown.com/podcast/brene-on-ffts/ In this initial broadcast she talks about HER discomfort with being “new” at things and this is a sentiment I absolutely share. I mostly hate being new, unfamiliar and bumbling with technology. Every semester, there’s been some new technology to master …
1.26.20 You think by now, I’d have this thing we call passion down pat. And, it isn’t that I haven’t known passion in my life; I have. But, I’m finding that passion is different at my age. When I was young, passion was all about accomplishment, acquiring “firsts” and doing “better than last time” each …
2.3.20 February makes me think of my heart chakra! And, for the month of February, I am contemplating the meaning of OPTIMISM. I am thinking, optimism is like abundance – it is something that appears everywhere in my consciousness. I am optimistic about school, about my health, about the possibility of changing (even radically) who …
1/11/20 The only thing about finding yourself in a place where you don’t want to be (physically, emotionally, spiritually) is that you can either feel sad and stuck or view it as your starting place to where you want to go instead. It’s okay to be discouraged momentarily but if you sit in that discouragement, …

12.29.19 It has been a long month. I guess I’d call this our “new normal” – we’ve turned a corner, for sure. I just don’t know how to describe the new territory. My DH’s 88, he’ll be 89 in April 2020. His Alzheimer’s diagnosis came in 2013 (a few years after symptoms). And, we’ve coped …
12.9.19 Over Thanksgiving week, my hubby, who already has Alzheimer’s disease, had two tiny strokes; they are called TIAs, Transient Ischemic Attacks. These events came and went very quickly. He lost his balance and his right side went weak, his speech slurred momentarily and, within five or ten minutes, he was back to being his …

11.28.19 It’s Thanksgiving Day, the one day each year we set apart to be particularly mindful of the many blessings in our lives and to express our thanks to others who grace our lives with goodness. We gather with friends and family around tables overflowing with culinary bounty, exotic new flavors and old family favorites. …
11.6.19 Have you noticed that everything shifts as the temperature gets colder? Your energy, your mood, even your self-care needs are shifting as the weather gets more and more chilly. And, if we don’t pay attention to those changes, we’re likely to do something unintentionally harmful merely because we’re not being mindful of the changes …
10.25.19 “Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen.” ― Brené Brown Remember when they told you that“80 percent of success is just showing up”?
