When things seem to be going upside down, take a little space. Yesterday I noticed that my digestive system was kicking up a fuss and I felt like I was growing to a new pant size. Not much fun! This is one of my body’s amazing ways of getting my attention. I had had a [...]
What if life could truly be easy? That lightens me up just thinking about it! As I read Jennifer Jeffries’s book “7 Steps to Sanity,” she suggests that we “chill out” as a major way to create ease in our lives. Her major option for “chilling out” was surprising and refreshing.
