I feel awfully at peace today. It just popped out of nowhere, really. How does one get to a place of peace? For me, it can come through a few ways, but today it came from feeling aligned with life. It feels like the place I am in and what I see in front…

8 instead of 0.
The other night, I found myself looking at life from a limited view. Life has its cycles and many times, those cycles feel like a circle. Going in circles in life is frustrating. In emotional reality, going in circles in life is just going through the motions without addressing and feeling the emotions. Circling…
Planning.
Yesterday, I started to plan for my final semester of college (I can't believe it started today!). I've always loved planning things out and maintaining organization. It always seems to bring me a sense of peace, a sense of control, and de-stresses my life. However, a thought crossed my mind as I was…
Good news.
How do you deal with good news? Whenever I hear or experience something good, I try to do two things: Embrace the moment (stay present). Reflect on why it made me feel good. I have previously struggled with both of those things, but in the past few months, I've dealt with success well.…
How patience becomes easier.
"Patience is a virtue." As I've discussed before, I have been in a period where I've had to wait for things to come. I knew they were coming (and they were good things), but I couldn't do anything about them because it wasn't time yet. Now that the time has come for these things…

Your heart is an important item - physically and emotionally. Your physical heart is there to help you be able to live and function. Your emotional heart is there to help you make decisions and feel what is important. In both ways, I feel as if I haven't done a good enough job…
Bound and determined not to be bound.
As I continue to reflect on my goals/reminders for myself in 2020 and look at my current to-do list, things can become stressful. I don't handle stress the best, but I start to handle it better when I take a step back... So that's what I did today. The step back I took today…
2020: Reminders instead of resolutions.
2020 has arrived! I am super excited about the upcoming year, as I have a lot going on that I can't want to be a part of. When I was thinking about my personal, health, and work goals for 2020, I started to write them as resolutions... things I wanted to "change" or "add"…
