OK, now you really think I'm nuts. Smell of Facebook? What's that about? And why would you give up smelling (or reading, I guess that's more accurate) Facebook in the morning? If you are like me (and I know a lot of people are), you sleep with your phone not too far away. I confess … Continue reading I Love the Smell of Facebook in the Morning … But I’m Giving it Up

Summer Body Shaker with Erin!
I've come to the conclusion that Erin Postle is one of my favourite people. She's a former high school counsellor who became a weight loss coach, nearly bankrupted her family, then went on to achieve health and wealth with Isagenix.

30 Day Challenge: Sleep
Last night I did something I haven't done in decades. I crawled into bed, read Facebook for a few minutes, turned off the light, and woke up again over eight hours later.

What does the Shofar have … Continue reading #BlogElul 17 – Awaken

A New Year
Happy New Year to all my friends and readers, which are probably completely overlapping sets. Here's wishing everyone a healthy, happy, successful 2012, in which you conquer your Lizard Brain, achieve wonderful things, and the Maya calendar quietly rolls over.

Goals Change
This time of year people seem to spend a lot of time thinking about their goals. Must be that looming January 1st coming up. A new opportunity, for sure, a fresh year. But also a moment when you need to face what you achieved in the past year, and what you didn't. The Resistance generally … Continue reading Goals Change
