8.15.20 This morning I revisited a practice I used to do daily. I can’t give a clear reason for why I stopped, but I got out of my routine and sooner or later, abandoned the practice – too bad, it was valuable and clearly, given my experience this morning, worth renewing. The practice is simply …
8.4.20 Have you heard yourself make that declaration? What was it you did not believe you volunteered to take on? For many of us that phrase is used when a relationship gets stressful. Even when it is someone you love, when the demands and expectations of your role as friend, family member, co-worker or even …
6.27.20 It is hard, isn’t it? It is difficult to isolate for yet another month. We’re headed into our fourth month of this uncomfortable, uncommon, and unfamiliar situation and it is taking its toll on us. CNBC reported, that as of “Wednesday, the nation’s seven-day average of daily new Covid-19 cases was 31,172. This number …
6.1.20 Sunday morning, May 31st I went on an errand. My intent was to follow my heart and bring two simply packed bags of groceries to a middle school in Minneapolis. I had seen the call on social media, for very specific pantry goods, and gone shopping because, that was something I could easily do …
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 …
