Day 2 of the lovely spring cleanse has come and gone and it seems it took the spring weather with it! I mentioned in my Day 1 post that I felt hungry all day. While the hunger has subsided a bit and I’ve gotten used to an empty stomach, the feeling is still there. It can be good to understand… Read More

I totally OD’d on chocolate last night. As a health and wellness coach, that’s not at the top of my list of recommendations. But this wasn’t any old chocolate.

So I diced them up, threw them in a… Read More

I woke up this morning ready to get back into my routine and craving my usual morning smoothie. Panic-stricken that I had no ingredients in the house, I… Read More
A couple of months ago, I attended a yoga class at Jivamukti where each instructor begins class with a story or devotion. That night, the instructor told the class about her experience seeing Amma just a few weeks earlier. I had never heard of Amma but I listened intently as she spoke of her intense spiritual awakening from a simple… Read More
Since February I have been working with life coach and motivational speaker, Gabrielle Bernstein (https://www.herfuture.com/). When I had the chance to hear her lecture at Sheila Kelly’s S Factor (https://www.sfactor.com/) last weekend, I couldn’t wait. I knew I would be great on the pole.
