Earlier this week, I had a snack of beets and blueberries. The blueberries came first, and then I enjoyed a few slices of beet.

I can’t tell you exactly why this [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
Step 1: Identify your Money Scripts
Money Scripts are the automatic thoughts we have in regards to money.
Here’s another exercise to help you “stir the pot” and continue to gather evidence as to what your relationship with money is like. (Remember: “Money” refers to all types of financial / material means.)

		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
First, a little background ….
I started out my professional life as a CPA working in the field of wealth management. Through that work, I realized that we each have a relationship with money – and this relationship drives not only our financial choices but also our day-to-day life choices. It is like a mirror to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
There’s a song by Relient K called High of 75. It’s been a favorite of mine ever since it came out a few years ago. I was reminded of this song today as I stepped outside and felt invigorated by the beautiful blue-sky, spring-like weather day.
I like High of 75 for at least two reasons [...]]]></description>

		<title>For the Love of a Sauna</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
I’ll share with you a little known fact – most of my blog entries are written in a sauna.  Yep! My husband says I’m “baking like a potato,” and I love it. It’s one of my “happy places.”
One reason is because I know it’s good for me. My tolerance for the heat has built up [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
In my last blog entry, I invited you on a journey of taking out the “mental trash” – messages that clog our minds, burden our hearts, quash our spirits, and interfere with our ability to lead an authentic life. I suggested you start keeping  a log of these distressing thoughts. This week I’m introducing you [...]]]></description>

		<title>Taking Out the “Mental Trash” – It’s Better Than a New Knee</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
See if you can top this … My Dad got a new knee for Christmas.
The old one had been bothering him for years. For several years, over-the-counter meds and strengthening exercises helped and enabled him to delay surgery. Then he tried injections of a lubricant gel that is derived from chicken combs. And this, too, [...]]]></description>
