Empowered Wellness for Body, Mind & Spirit
I feel as if I have been cocooned in my writing project for the last year. It is my first full length book entitled ‘Yoga and Mediation for the Spiritual Seeker – A Guide to Knowing and Loving Your Whole Authentic Self.’ This project has been an interesting journey full of disappointments and self-discovery – a …
Image from www.Pixabay.com When speaking about emotions, we may say that the opposite of love is hate. Vibrationally however, the opposite of Love is not hate but Fear.

I was going through my folders and perusing things that I’d written many years ago. Just like going back and reading old journal entries, doing this helps me to reflect on how my thinking and writing has developed and grown.

Since re-listening to Amy Cuddy’s popular TEDTalk last month (‘Your Body Language May Shape Who You Are’), I have added one more thing to my morning ‘prepare-to-get-out-of-bed-and-start-my-day’ routine. It’s the Wonder Woman, a posturing offered by Cuddy as a power pose. I adapt it in a yoga-like way and use it to tap into my …

As I was doing some research to prepare for my upcoming online program, BE the Change – Transformation through Fearless Self-Care, I came across this Psychology Today article entitled ‘It’s Time for Radical Self-Care’. The premise that self-care is radical arises because we are taught and expected to take care of others first and put ourselves …
I recently read the piece below on social media (unknown author) and felt it was worth sharing here. I loved how it delivered a powerful message through such a simple relatable analogy.
