How often do you wake up with stanky morning mind? We're waking up first thing in the morning and whatever's in our brain or whatever it is that we feel is what we're going to experience. That's just how our brain works. There's no shame in that. This happened to me recently. And most mornings, I am the goofy one, dancing, and ready to go. But earlier this week, a lot of t...

A couple of months, I started having this weird pain in my hip and as I kept moving through my life, doing all the things that I normally do, my yoga classes, taking care of my kids, the pain got worse and worse to the point where I couldn't really walk anymore.

And they will stay intentions always, no matter how much we want to believe in them until we translate them into action.    In today's episode, I'll share some tips...

Recently, I met with a therapist and we went to grab a coffee. The therapist said that a lot of times people will come to him and he didn't think he is the right fit for them, because in therapy, it's usually about healing trauma and looking backward. But sometimes, what somebody needs is to create a positive vision for the future and manage the mind to set up a plan the next time you no...

One of the things that I deal with a lot is when people are trying to make a decision about whether or not to do something, and especially when those things would require a lot of change in our lives.
