Silence
Day breaks, I open the window to see the warm morning sun rising. I unroll my favorite mat and grab my soft pillow. I sit on my satin pillow and cross my legs, I place my hands in prayer and rest at my heart.
I close my eyes and start going inward
Start noticing my body settle and release on my mat.
Checking in with self
Connect with the
Present breath
Silence
As I sit in meditation today I become aware of my thoughts which is many.
I arrive back to my breath and just focus on my in and out breath. The flow and rhythm,
I start to deepen my breath for a few rounds. I try and let go of all the unwanted clutter in my thoughts as I exhale. I take a moment to appreciate all I have and am blessed with.
I pray for all my loves.
I appreciate all my many blessings. I am grateful for my lessons learned and still learning. I end with my breath work.
Being Present
Silence

Happy Sunday!

Welcome November 🍁

This month is full of gratitude.
My favorite holiday Thanksgiving is coming soon.🌻
With the full moon on Wednesday we are able to let go of whats not serving and become open to new.
Starting this month off with many blessing.
When I sit in meditation or practice yoga I am actively grateful. What a power it is to be able to feel the joy and happiness from being grateful.
Every morning as I am starting my day I take a bit of time to appreciate all my blessings. I take a moment and pray for all my loved ones and those that challenge me. I am grateful for all my lessons that I’ve learned so far and the ones I’m learning now. Then my day can start off with an open page ready to receive.
It’s so important to acknowledge all that we are grateful for because we are so lucky to have all these blessings in life. Being grateful and practicing gratitude is a beautiful way to stay healthy in your mind and in your heart.
I am so grateful for you all!
So many Blessings!

Happy Sunday!

Today, I wanted to take a few moments and share from the book that Deb and I are reading
called the Daily Stoic by Ryan Holliday. This book has a simple daily reading that encourages
us to think deeply about how we live our lives.
This reading is titled “The Fountain of Goodness” and starts with a quote from Marcus Aurelius
who says, “Dig deep within yourself, for there is a fountain of goodness ever ready to flow if
you will keep digging.”
It goes on to read, “Today, we could hope that goodness comes our way—good news, good
weather, good luck. Or we could find it ourselves, in ourselves. Goodness isn’t something
that’s going to be delivered by mail. You have to dig it up inside.

“Breathing in, I see the element earth in me, the element air in me, I see clouds, snow, rain, and rivers in me. I see t...

“Breathing in, I see the element earth in me, the element air in me, I see clouds, snow, rain, and rivers in me. I see the atmosphere, wind, and the forest in me, the mountains and oceans in me. I see earth in me.”
Breathing out, I smile to the earth in me. I am one with Mother Earth.”
- Thich Nhat Hanh

Pranayama
Breathe
Our life force
Breath work is so important for us to maintain, it releases toxins, increases energy, boost immune system, strengthens lungs, helps with chronic pain, improve sleep, helps with digestion and increases Self-Love.
Practicing Yoga or Meditation will increase your breath work every time.

Happy Sunday!

You may have heard the phrase memento mori—“remember you will die.” It is a Latin phrase used in Ancient Greece and Rome and was quoted often by the Stoic philosophy. On the surface it sounds heavy, maybe even grim. But really, it’s not about obsessing over death. It’s about using the truth of mortality to shape the way we live.

When I think about my own life, memento mori reminds me that my time here is limited. That awareness makes me pause before getting caught up in things that don’t really matter—small frustrations, pointless worries, meaningless arguments. It nudges me back toward what actually counts.

And then I think about the people closest to me—my family, my friends. Memento mori means remembering that their time is also limited. Suddenly, that conversation with my spouse, that call with a friend, or even just sitting quietly with someone I love feels different. It feels more precious. More present.

So the real power of memento mori is this: when we remember death, we’re called to live more fully. To speak more kindly. To act with more patience. To let love and gratitude show up in every interaction.

It doesn’t mean living in fear of the end. It means living with clarity about what matters now. Because if today were the last day—for me, or for someone I care about—how would I want to spend it? How would I want to show up?

That’s the invitation of memento mori: to let the awareness of death guide every thought, every word, and every action—so that life, right now, is lived as deeply and meaningfully as possible.
