Invest in you

You are – and will always be – your best and most important investment. Your body is the beautiful vehicle navigating you through this life – are you taking meticulous care of it and learning ways to make it stronger and healthier, ensuring you get the most healthy years? Are you protecting your

Just get 'er done

Sometimes it’s just more important to get the reps in. I am not the least bit interested in writing today. But here I am. Keys are being hit on the keyboard and soon enough a sentence forms. It’s about getting started, kicking the can – moving forward – even when

Delight in the little things

The sound of the birds. The sound of my cat purring. The pleasure of a cup of coffee. Snow being illuminated by a street light. A short walk with my daughter under the night sky. The view of the river at night from the bridge. Smoke circling from an incense

Another day in paradise

As of this morning, Ontario has been issued even stricter stay-at-home orders. In fact our phones were even hit with an emergency alert at 10:00am to make sure we knew. The events of the past 10 months (and longer for other countries), still boggles my mind. It’s definitely

Control what you can control

I often don’t have a clue what’s going on in the world around me – and that’s by design. I may not control the outside world, but I can control the actions I take each day, and I can set up my environment to better support my goals,

Set yourself up to win

I’ve realized that I’ve been overcomplicating things and it’s getting in the way of me winning the day. It’s more important to create the momentum and the belief in myself, to stack the wins and the successes – then to make things too difficult to accomplish in

Avoiding or in the void?

I’ve been in such a curious place. I thought it may be just avoidance, but perhaps it’s better explained by being in the void. It’s a place of deep surrender. A place to embrace the unknown. To accept what is and what you seem to have no

Speak the truth

People won’t always like it, but being honest – speaking your truth – is critical, especially in relationships. I learned a long time ago, that no one is going to die from telling the truth. Ultimately, people can handle it. I think I do a better job at delivering the truth

Be careful what you focus on

Sometimes things just have to be anchored in the hard way, as in a hard fall on the ice. While out on the trail today, I allowed my energy to drift from the usual peaceful, grateful presence I cultivate to future thoughts that I would categorize as negative in nature.

Keep on keeping on

Keep doing the right things, long enough, consistently. Persist. No matter what. You may not see the results right away, but trust the process – and enjoy the process. Focus on the long game, the bigger picture. You will achieve your goals, you will bear the fruits of your labour, you

I don't need to be right

I definitely love being right, but I don’t need to be. That’s just my ego talking. A distinction that has served me well, while sifting through all of the noise this past year, is that it’s better to get it right than to be right. Think about

Peace begins at home

Everything starts with you. What we’re seeing on the picture screen of our lives is just an out picturing of what’s going on inside. Your energy, your thoughts and your beliefs – they all start with you – they’re all within your control. No one can make you mad.

Find the gold

Perhaps this may seem contradictory to what I wrote about in Who Do You Listen To, but it’s important to remember that sometimes we have to go through some dirt to find the gold – and that it’s up to us to look for it. As I was listening

Who do you listen to?

This past year has really helped me to hone in on who I should be listening to. It was a year that revealed a lot about people and their “come from”, their foundation, their beliefs and values. I must admit that I was disappointed in some of my teachers – their

Keep planting seeds

I’m looking at the year ahead much like I would if I were a farmer or a gardener. If I want to harvest a great crop by the end of the year, I must ensure that I’m planting seeds, watering, fertilizing – and tending to the weeds. It’s

Depth over width

With an abundance of knowledge and wisdom so readily available, it’s tempting to get pulled in many different directions. I’ve fallen prey to that myself. With discipline, over time I’ve learned to choose very wisely and to go deep with specific teachers and wisdom. Of course, you

Every moment you can begin again

You don’t need to wait until January 1st or a Monday – or even for tomorrow. Each and every moment provides you with an opportunity to choose differently and to get back up if you’ve fallen down. It’s crazy how conditioned we are to let a calendar dictate

Thank you 2020

It’s been a truly incredible, memorable and transformative year – for the entire world. Perhaps an unpopular opinion, but I am so grateful for 2020 and all of the gifts that it has so generously provided. It was a year of opportunity and blessings for everyone. Despite the prevalent fear,

Wherever you go, there you are

A new job, a new relationship, a new home – even a new year – doesn’t change anything. Wherever you go, you bring you with you. So work on you first. Do what most people aren’t willing to do – look in the mirror, take an honest assessment of who’s

My daily dose of heaven

As I walked alongside the river today, my heart was so full of gratitude. The beautiful snow, the multitude of trees, the peaceful river, the birds, the sun shining, the clean brisk air. Being out on the trail is my daily dose of heaven. Being in nature soothes my soul,

My body is self healing

One of the things that I am most grateful for over the past 10 years, is the knowingness that my body is self healing, self correcting, and self balancing. As Dr. Morter would say, the power that made the body, heals the body. I have been so blessed with learning

Forgive and release

As I begin my process of reviewing the current year and planning for the New Year, I’m taking time to reflect on all that I want to “leave behind,” all that I am choosing to surrender to Source, all that I am choosing to not carry into 2021. It

You can be right or happy

When you have to be right, ultimately that means that the other person is “wrong.” But at what cost? You could very well be sacrificing your happiness – or your relationship – all in the name of being right. Thank you, Ego. Instead, have humility, have grace, be curious, be open to

The best Christmas ever

My heart is full. As I reflect on Christmas day, I could not be more grateful. My time with Josh and Taylor was more than I could have asked for. I truly feel so blessed. My kids mean the world to me and to have quality time with them is

We pick our nests

It’s helpful to remind myself that I picked the family I belong to and that they’re each here FOR me, to serve in my awakening. It moves me from a victim role to an empowered Creator. I must admit that I have a lot of growing to do
