The opportunity to learn is always present.  When we are aware of it, man, it can be pretty loud and sometimes harsh.  Even when we are not aware, it can be pretty harsh. I have many opportunities to learn to allow what is and to live ‘as it is’ from the truth of who and […]

I’d like to wish each and every mom, mother-in-law, acting mother, like a mother Mom a Happy Mother’s Day. There is no love like a mother’s love. Our world is better because you are a mom. Only a mom knows what it is like to give up almost everything to love someone with everything they […]

My mind has ducks and ‘quacking’ up on it.  There are two ducks out front waddling around the neighborhood.  I assume a Mr. and Mrs. looking for a place to nest. I have a big mother/daughter (extra long) weekend planned, so, as I think of the fun that is about to be had up in […]

Today I find myself between my 25th wedding anniversary and my 56th birthday celebration! I was married in Hawaii 25 years ago and stayed there for 3 weeks.  It was a wonderful, beautiful, spectacular and loving time.  There was a double rainbow at our ceremony on the beach at sunset.  We did whale watching, hiking […]

You are so worthy!  When you know what your value is and share it, we all win… ! There are things that you are good at.  There are things that bring out your uniqueness.  There is you being you.   This is your power.  My hope is that, today, you decide to own everything about yourself.  […]

I have gotten pretty good at looking in the mirror and liking and being proud of the person looking back.   I remember the first time someone suggested for me to do so – I thought they had lost their mind…  I thought – wow are they crazy.  There is no way I can do that. […]

It is a beautiful spring day outside today.  The sky is blue with puffs of fluffy white clouds hanging out.  There is just enough breeze to know that it is present but not to make anything uncomfortable like hair blowing in my face (that is better for in the car with the windows down driving).  The […]

My daughter gave me her ‘Fitbit’.  Ha.  When I ran Beachin Bodies [‘Make Yourself a Beachin Body!’], my monthly newsletter was called Fit Bits. Now, there is a ‘Fitbit’ on my wrist and it does excite and encourage me to move more.  I find myself at night, that if I am close to the next full […]

I had noticed that recently my mind and my body were begging myself to lie in bed in the morning and just allow homeostasis to find itself within me.  Balance, calm, a feeling of being in sync within.  To not rush.  To not jump up and start the day immediately after I open my eyes. I […]

I feel an evolved heartbeat of myself beating on.  I feel the joy and vibrancy within.  I feel the letting go of some of my struggles and challenges as I still acknowledge them and participate in them as much as possible; fully and truthfully. I see myself moving my body more.   I see myself speaking my truth more in whatever […]
