My approach engages parents and client to provide a healthier foundation for them to learn, live, and grow. You'll sleep better.

A lot of people I hear from these days needing my help are going through a ‘round 2’ of anxiety, stress, feeling overwhelmed, and having vaccine/mask/social distancing/missing out on life traumatic stress.
These are tough times to be sure. If you are on social media(s) and read a paper, watch news, etc then you’re bound to be both informed, a good thing, but also stressed out, a normal reaction and one that can be managed in a healthy way if you have the skill sets and strategies.
Stay tuned for more detailed, specific actions you can take to reign in what’s keeping you from joy and thriving in your life.

Hello and happy Friday and last day of January! In case anyone does not know, the handsome Foxhound above is JoeJoe, best friend and therapy, or therapeutic, dog.
He brings me and many others great joy! Focusing daily on finding joy in life is a choice and a mental activity. Positivity over negativity, optimism over pessimism, a smile on your face over a frown. It actually can be that simple.
The point is that you make it your own. Define it, what does being joyful mean to you? What brings you joy? Who brings you joy? Instead of pushing your daily joy aside and back burnered, make it a priority to choose it by being in positive, healthy relationships, getting some daily exercise of any kind in, and keep mindful of the bountiful joy around you.
Last, be connected to others, both people and our loving pets. Happiness is a very good thing!

Hi everyone! Hope your Sunday is going swell.
I recently read a blurb in the Oct '17 GQ, written by Dan Harris, Nightline co-anchor and co-founder of the 10% Happier meditation app. The title was "Kill Your Rage with Awareness".l
I tried it, followed the simple instructions, and lo and behold it made a difference, or rather is making a difference. Been practicing this now for about 8 days, and my take is it works. Here it is should you want to experiment, and let me know your thoughts! Thanks and namaste...!

"Close your eyes and look at what's happening inside your own skull, and you'll see that it's a mess of urges and impulses. That sheer knowledge helps you when you're ambushed by anger. You'll think, 'I'm feeling anger right now, but I don't have to ACT on it'. It's a game-changing skill. That self-awareness allows you to see the storm off the coast, to see your anger before it owns you.

And of course, JoeJoe conked out on the office daybed after his hourly meditative practices...

Hi again! First, I clicked on the wrong picture and accidentally uploaded a video showing squirrels decimating our elm tree in the backyard, and the garage being prepped for painting! So sorry about that, if you like the furry varmints then enjoy!
It's been a while since I posted on my practice site, so I'm making a commitment to post weekly. This is the first, and it's on stress management, a topic I believe we all can relate to. If you're alive, breathing, and in any way interacting with at least one person daily, then you have stress in your life.
Here are a few pointers on reducing and managing stress:

--Learn how to say the simple word "no". Stick to boundaries and limits that you set whether personally or professionally. And know it is just fine to not take on more than you think you can handle.
--Avoid volatile topics. This can apply to so so so many things, especially in these times we are living in! This doesn't mean stay away from people, conversations, the television, computer, etc. Just step back from any news or information that causes you upset and stress. It is okay to do this!
--Do not overextend yourself. Back to saying "NO"! When you over scheduled and trying to keep up with all your commitments, then stop, sit down with your schedule/calendar, and make some adjustments. You do not have to be rushing around 24/7. Down time is required if you are going to be at your best mentally and physically on a daily basis. Practice mindful calmness and breathing. Again, it is okay to do these things for yourself!

These are just 3 strategies among hundreds that you can take and make your own. The key is always to be true to yourself and authentic, believe in your innate goodness, and practice positivity and manage your stress! Take care everybody, and have a great day!

Hi on a warm, relaxing Saturday. Several actions to take to keep your for shifting from a 'Human Being' to a 'Human Doing' follow:
--Put your mental, physical, and emotional health first, and take good care of yourself every day.
--Calm yourself and meditate on positives every morning before beginning your day.
--Sometime during your day, go outside and soak up some nature!
--Frame yourself in service to others and come from a place of genuine caring and service.
--Gratitude. Act grateful for the big and small things. Smile more; say hello to people; give a wave to that person who let you cut in front of them (while using blinker!!!).
--Use your blinker always!! (a soapbox issue!)
--And always remember to live, love, and enjoy every day and find something to be thankful and happy for, and tell someone.
Here's to positivity and thriving in your life!!
