Coloring Mandalas Inspires
Before having a child, you would never find me sitting still and coloring. It just wasn’t something I thought made sense for me to do. Trying to get me to sit and meditate is even worse, I want to do it because I understand the benefits, but I have a list of things I’d rather […]

Celebrate Yourself. Take Time to Be Proud.
A reality check every now and then is a good thing. Oftentimes, we get so caught up in the day to day that we don’t take a moment to reflect on how far we’ve come (well if you’re anything like me). Sometimes I am so focused on what I want to accomplish that I forget […]

You may have heard the saying, “Nothing good happens after midnight,” but surely this does not apply to dreaming. Inspiration often surfaces in your dreams or wakes you up in the middle of the night. When you are relaxed and not bogged down by a million and one things in your daily life, you are […]

Sometimes life throws obstacles in your path and you get stuck. You may have a problem you need to solve or a situation that needs to be worked out. For me, I recently encountered writer’s block.
