Shine On

Unbox yourself. Let your hair down. Untame that wild beast within you. Dance and feel into your body. Shake your hips and move your arms and legs and belly. Let it jiggle. Let yourself sweat. What does it mean to be YOU? Cause I’ll bet it’s not sitting slouched over your computer scrolling through your Facebook feed. I’ll bet it’s not hunched in a chair with your phone two inches to your face. I’ll bet […]

Living the Simple Life

I’m going to be real with you. I haven’t been publishing blog posts or on social media so much, because well it has felt better not to. Some days I’d have the inspiration to write an article, but then be too meticulous about how it reads and scrap it. Other days I’d take a picture of a pretty plate of food with the intention of publishing it somewhere, but then get caught up in the […]

Intermittent Fasting and Listening to Your Body

Have you heard about intermittent fasting? Though it may sound like some prolonged food restriction, it is truly much simpler. The amount of time you “fast” depends on your body and gender and just how you feel, but is generally somewhere between 12 and 18 hours over the course of a day.

Practicing the Art of Self-Love

It’s hard to practice self-love when you don’t truly love yourself. Many of us look for ways to change who we are or what we look like. We constantly say to ourselves that we are not good enough. Instead of looking at what we already have and already are, we fill our heads with thoughts of doubt. I am not skinny enough, I need to change my diet. My hair is not long enough so […]

Colorado Energy and A.W.E

We planned this trip to Colorado one week in advance. We reserved for the A.W.E. seminar, booked our flights, and were ready to experience the full energy this weekend had to offer. Well, life never turns out how you expect it to, and this weekend was no different. There was a lot we learned, plenty of beautiful and wild things we saw, but nothing compared to the time spent in that room with Donny Epstein, […]

What I Learned from a Month of No Alcohol

I entered this month determined something drastic was going to change. I was ready for a dramatic improvement in my overall well-being. This is it was all I could think about. Removing alcohol is the change I need to reach complete happiness/fulfillment/acceptance/etc. And so I forged ahead with no second thoughts into this dry month of January. What I came away with, however, was much different than what I expected, and quite enlightening to say […]
