Bunny Slippers aren't merely cute and cozy footwear. They represent a state of being; an allowance, an acceptance of the body and minds need to relax, rejuvenate, and heal.
Today I want to explore the joy, ease, and simplicity of focusing on one goal, on one single priority while supporting yourself with truly renewing downtime. Because you can’t have the focus without true renewal, it's a two-way street.
Routine and ultimately boredom is an inevitable price we pay for success. However, the good news is that boredom doesn’t need to overshadow our entire lives.
Here I am 4 weeks into my New Year’s Namaste Challenge of not consuming caffeine nor TV while increasing my meditation from one 10-minute session each morning to two 20-minute sessions per day. I haven’t missed a day or a habit yet.
In this blog, I explore the value of NO and how it empowers us to create a life with space for our Yes’s.
My happiness hack is a process I use to redirect or reframe what I call the wishing-wanting-if-only thoughts when they pop into my mind. The first practical step is moving back into gratitude and, in turn, re-noticing the abundance in our lives. However, I like to take it a step farther…
In this blog, I discuss the incredibly inspiring memoir, Can't Hurt Me: Master Your Mind and Defy the Odds by David Goggins.
Staring January 1st, 2020 I will be challenging myself to go without caffeine and TV while increasing my meditation to two 20 minute sessions each day. In the blog, I explain why I’m doing this and how I plan on accomplishing this 10-week challenge.
The first step in either adding or subtracting a habit, according to James Clear author of Atomic Habits, is a process of self-discovery called the Habits Scorecard. This exercise is the first coaching tool I use if my clients are seeking a general up-leveled life.
Dr. Daniel Amen uses brain SPECT imaging to determine which parts of the brain are possibly under-functioning, over-functioning or even damaged. Then he tailors his treatment to each patient’s scan results treating such issues as depression, addiction,concussion, and traumatic brain injuries just to name a few.
In this blog, I talk about the WOOP or wish, outcome, obstacle, plan. WOOP is a systematic way to increase motivation and change behavior. It’s based on 20 years of research in the science of motivation, and it presents a unique and surprising idea: the obstacles that we think most impede us from fulfilling our wishes can actually help us to realize them.

Today I want to talk about a method of organizing and prioritizing your day, week even your life. President Dwight D Eisenhower created this tool aptly named the Eisenhower Box. Eisenhower’s strategy for taking action and organizing tasks is relatively simple. Using this decision matrix, you will separate your activities based on four possibilities.
As a wellness coach, I help my clients to set priorities and implement positive lifestyle changes. For the most part, my clients want to either add a healthy habit or subtract an unhealthy habit from there life. They are seeking from our coaching relationship whatever combination of support and accountability it will take to assist them towards their lifestyle goals.
What are the habits you want to add or subtract from your life that keeps alluding you despite your best efforts? Or, what's that habit on your nightly checklist you keep circling instead of crossing off? Well, whether it's meditation, journaling, exercising, or eating more fruits and veggies, what's worked for me is a tool Jerry Seinfeld popularized. His foolproof method to add a habit is his calendar system.
One of the tools I highly suggest they adopt on their wellness journey, and that I use faithfully is a nightly checklist. A nightly checklist is simply a spreadsheet that at the top lists the days of the week and written under each day are the habits you want to track. Every evening, either cross off what you've completed or circle what you missed. When you have a day where all your habits are X’ed, X the whole day, that feels great!
Our healthy daily habits are the most important way we show up for ourselves. Think about it; we don't know what the tree will look like that will grow from the seed we plant today. But we know for sure we won't have a tree in the future if we don’t plant that seed. So, when you show up for yourself by keeping your wellness commitments, those daily habits put you on a path towards your healthiest self.
Think about it, if all it takes to be a nutritious eater or a regular exerciser was to read a book or join a gym, respectively, wouldn't everyone be fit and healthy? Who doesn't have at least several diet books growing dusty on their shelves and who hasn't purchased a gym membership that got little or no use.
If you want to feel as if you are naturally waking up before the sun rises without jarring yourself awake when your alarm goes off, use this bulb. There is nothing like peacefully waking up because your room is brighter. I can't recommend it highly enough. Other bulbs do the same thing, and there are even “alarm” lamps you can purchase; however, this is the only product I’ve used, these bulbs have lasted well over a year. I can’t say enough about them.
