Working out regularly takes energy and stick-to-it-ness. It also takes some patience and understanding. Pursing any goal requires dedication, belief and grace. It’s impossible for every step we take to be toward our dreams. We sometimes take the long way. Detours offer scenery, new opportunities…
Happy Valentine’s Day, my dear friends! I hope you find time today to express your love — through your words, thoughts and actions. Treat yourself to something special. Delight your friend, kiss your sweetie, surprise a stranger. Take time to reflect on all the love in your life. Nosh on chocolates, eat nothing but veggies…
I have spent a ton of time in the kitchen since completing Whole Living’s cleanse last month. I am trying to find the space between maintaining my focus and making smart choices while living this busy, social and (sometimes) stressful life. It’s a process. My latest obsession is finding new recipes. Here are a few gems on my Recipe Lust list…
There are many bloggers who name a word for their year. When I created my 12 Intentions for 2012, I was seeking something similar — a focus, a thread, a theme, to weave in and out and through my year. In 2010, my word was nurture. It was serendipity in 2011. As I started reading Style Statement, I came upon two words: my foundation and my creative edge…
Happy February to you, my lovelies! I am so thrilled to begin a fresh month, especially since we get a bonus day on the 29th. How did your January shape up? I completed the Whole Living Action Plan as I intended and finished reading Style Statement.

This how I feel about my experience with Whole Living’s 2012 Action Plan…

My week went by quicker than I expected and I can’t believe the last days of January are upon us! Since I started on January 1st, today is my last official day of the Whole Living Action Plan. I’m looking forward to…
I recently attended a goal setting session at my local lululemon. I went with my friend and an open mind, hoping to learn something new. The event began with introductions, then a brief visualization of where we hope to find ourselves 10 years from now. I’m trying not to judge myself too harshly, but it kinda seems like I want it all…
Hello, sweet friends. I hope this finds you happy, healthy and enjoying the last full week in January. 2012 is off to a delightful start — a perfect blend of focus and downtime, with lots of new discoveries. With just a week left, I’m working diligently on my goals for January…
Happy Friday to you, my lovelies. Are you looking forward to the weekend? I try to mix fun to-dos with necessary chores to keep my weekends happy & productive.
