The other day, for the first time, I voiced the words I have written about my thoughts on feeling as if there must be more purpose to my life than what I am currently doing. It is not a matter of being dissatisfied nor is it a sense of being lost. It’s not a midlife…

Some months ago I had a six month plan to write a series of articles on how to find peace & calm in our busy world focusing on meditation. Part of the plan was to interview women in the field of spirituality & wellness. However, this did not really happen because I realized that I…

The days are getting warmer even though it remains cold outside. Spring is coming. Just this morning we were reminiscing on the fact that it seems like we just saw the leaves fall off the trees, and now the soft green buds are forming in preparation for the spring blossoms. When I see this, I…
