Why Are You So Lonely?
The “fix” is not in another class, more friends on Facebook, more likes, or another way to medicate yourself or dumb yourself down enough to be with others. The fix, if you will, is in spending time with yourself. Alone.

As Hard As It Is To Hear, Parents Need to Know
We are long past making sure no one’s feelings get hurt when it comes to really digging into what is happening to our children. We have important work to do — work that can only be done by grown-ups willing to take full responsibility for what they are bringing to the table.
Healing Begins With Asking The Right Questions About Your Health
When it comes to health, the questions we are willing to ask, matter. A lot. When we begin to wonder what is happening to us and why, we learn through trial and error how to ask good questions without foreclosing on an answer out of fear.
Is Your Cell Phone Using You Or Are You Using It?
How is it that we have traded the very happiness of our lives together for lives dictated by an incessant and interrupting machine? We do it by buying into a reality that says this is how it is now. We do it by allowing ourselves to be talked into things that don’t actually feel good to us.
Is This Helping Or Hurting?
Does what you watch leave you feeling paralyzed in your own life? As you feel this out for yourself, get truly single-celled-amoeba-intelligent about this: move towards what helps and move away from what hurts.
Twelve Tips For Courageous Parenting In The Age Of Technology
For our children to be without imagination and play is the equivalent of imagining birds without wings. This is not natural. Creativity and play is the very heart, soul and essence of childhood. To watch it go missing is heartbreaking and soul crushing.
Let The Body Show You How To Heal
If you can put aside your fears and the need to already have the answer, you’re in a better position to be receptive to what the body wants you to know, and receive some real guidance that will serve you well, as well as serving those you come in contact with.
What Your Body Truly Needs To Thrive Will Stand The Test Of Time
In a world that loves to complicate things, sell us things and promote technological advances as superior to the intelligence of nature, one of the best ways to navigate our way through when it comes to health is to get simple.
Choosing Well For Our Children
Mindfulness has the power to serve as the antidote to our unconscious, habituated and addictive uses of the choices we make for ourselves and our children when it comes not just to screen technologies, but to all the choices we make on our children’s and family’s behalf.
Just This Moment
The “just this” was my way of focusing only on what was right before me — whether that was the lettuce I was picking, the conversation I was having or the observations I was making of the seedlings, — in effect, immersing my mind in the right now versus the “what if” future.
The Courage to Take Up Your Own Health
Our beliefs around our role in our own health and healing are often entrenched and unconscious, having originated in childhood. But without greater awareness, it's hard to see the outdated beliefs that are keeping us from experiencing the full potential of our lives and what is possible when it comes to health and healing.
Do You Know What’s Creating Your Reality?
We have on average 60,000 thoughts each day, with the vast majority of them being negative — what we have been thinking about for years! — and here’s the kicker, aren’t even aware of. Our thoughts are so comfortable and familiar to us that we are mostly unconscious of what is going on in our own minds.
Letting The Mud Settle
The discovery that when all the mud settles — the mud being the difficult and troubling thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations threatening to take over — a sense of spaciousness washes over me, creating the potential for me to see clearly and effortlessly what is real and what is true.
When I Challenged My Worldview, My World Healed
Begin to wonder why you believe what you do. To wonder is to connect with the voice and wisdom of your very own soul. It is to open yourself beyond the conditioning, fears and habits you have adopted.
Do You Know When You Are Overdoing It?
What if instead, you chose to develop a relationship with your energy that feeds and honors its preciousness? From that way of being, you fill yourself first while also paying tribute to an authentic relationship because you are giving from a place of fullness.
Ensuring A Good Fit Between You And Your Healing Practitioner
To claim the responsibility of ensuring you have a good practitioner fit is to say you are worth it. It is to say you deserve to receive the very best support that is available to you. That begins by understanding all health and healing begins with you.
To Trust Your Body Is To Trust Yourself
The good news is that just by turning your attention to what is inherent and most basic about being in a body is the way back to trusting your body, yourself, and all of life.
Pick Your Hard
It’s hard to have a long overdue conversation, and it’s hard to carry what is unresolved. It’s hard to make changes in your life, and it’s hard to not feel good. It’s hard to take the time to discover what your offer to the world is, and it’s hard to work at a job you hate. So, pick your hard.
Self-Care Is Baked Right Into Us
What if the real reason we never seem able to figure out how to care for ourselves is because we have begun to forget the obvious, simple fact that self-care is built in?
The Way Of The Visionary
To have vision when it comes to making the world a better place is to first and foremost know yourself and what makes you tick. Know your fears and foibles, and recognize how you project these onto the world at large.
What If Nothing Was Wrong?
If you can recognize that you cannot always possibly know why things are happening the way they are, you are now in position to decide that you will look for the great shaping and honing messages available to you, while coming to see that everything is happening for you, not to you.
Learning The Language Of Your Body
If you want to self-heal, you will first need to know how to listen to the guidance of your body. No doctor knows more about how to heal you and keep you well than your own healing intelligence. Your body generally provides this guidance through flashes of inspiration throughout the day.
Trying Not To Be Sick
It’s important to point out that we cannot always avoid being sick, no matter how good our lifestyle choices may be. Being ill is an opportunity to see where you have gotten out of harmony with the truest needs of your life.
Where Mindfulness Meets Technology
We are in very uncharted waters when it comes to understanding the impact technology is having on what it means to be human.
Technology In Our Homes
Home is where it all begins. At its best, our home life is what nourishes, protects, and sustains us — kids and grown-ups alike. Given how important this is, how can we create a place that nurtures and protects the real needs of our children?
