The #JudgmentDetox Continued – How to deal with bad situations
Choosing not to be judgmental is a pretty tall order, especially when there are so many crappy situations out there in the world today. So how is your #judgmentdetox going?! Over the last couple of weeks I've had my buttons pushed a LOT. I've heard about some...
The Judgment Detox
Last week I attended a workshop with Gabrielle Bernstein all about judgment, or, more specifically, how to not judge. It was so inspiring and I always love spending (virtual) time in Gabby's presence and learn so much from her. Everyone who attended has committed to a...
Take away your conditions
I almost wasn't going to write a post today, particularly with it being Valentine's Day. There's already way too many posts out there on love, self-love, love love...it's a little overwhelming. However, I wanted to share a little something that's been on my mind this...

Having fun for fun’s sake

How does it feel to be happy?
Weird question right? How does it feel to be happy?! Obviously I was scrapping the barrel of blog topics this week/ But seriously, if everyone experiences feelings differently, because ultimately everyone's perception is unique, how do we really know what happiness...
