In Love with an Idea

The other day, I met a friend for coffee. We were talking about life, our families, and that both of our youngest had graduated. We are both moving into new phases of our lives, and as conversations go, we got into some serious discussions on things. She asked me a question which I haven’t beenContinue reading “In Love with an Idea”

Congratulations are in Order!

So, it’s been a busy time this past while! My youngest son graduated high school and I received my diploma from the International Association of Counselors and Therapists as a Certified Hypnotherapist. I also felt the call to listen to my body as I was feeling a bit run down and I knew I neededContinue reading “Congratulations are in Order!”

Thumbs Up for The Fall Guy

Hubby and I went to see The Fall Guy in theatres this past week. If you enjoy action, a bit of romance, and comedy then this movie is for you! What I really loved about the movie is the way they portrayed the relationship between the main characters. In one scene, the hero is cryingContinue reading “Thumbs Up for The Fall Guy”

Congratulations to Me!

This weekend is the final weekend for my hypnotherapy course, and I’m a little sad that it is ending. I’ve had a great time with my classmates and we have a fabulous instructor. I’ve truly enjoyed all I’ve learned, and it has given me many tools to continue helping clients transform. The bonus this weekContinue reading “Congratulations to Me!”

Motherhood Transitions

My son’s graduation photos were delivered and it’s another reminder that in a couple of short months, my youngest will graduate from high school. I’m the proud mother of 3 other high school graduates, and 2 have already graduated from post-secondary programs. This year, I went back to school to study hypnotherapy. As my programContinue reading “Motherhood Transitions”

Cooking with Mama!

I find it time consuming to post the “how-to” videos of food prep on various social media, and after posting a video of the soup I made the other day, I figured I’d share my go-to recipe for a soup base that you can add any sort of meat to if you like. The aboveContinue reading “Cooking with Mama!”

It’s Personal

I haven’t known what to write for a while, nor have I made the time to. We’ve had a personal situation here that I won’t write about, but sometimes life is like that. We have stuff going on in our lives that makes all the other stuff we feel is so important take a backContinue reading “It’s Personal”

It’s Ok to Not Feel Okay

Have you ever found yourself trying too hard to make yourself feel okay about a situation when you just don’t? I’m sure most of us have. And it’s okay for us to feel not okay with something without it pulling us down into a spiral of negative emotions. It is possible to remain calm evenContinue reading “It’s Ok to Not Feel Okay”

Things Change

Life changes all the time. Sometimes it feels like change is slow, especially when we’ve been working toward a goal. Then we have the sudden changes that we aren’t expecting, and life asks us to pivot on the spot. Change can feel hard because of our attachment to things. For example, I love teaching Qigong.Continue reading “Things Change”

Post-Valentine’s Post

Valentine’s Day isn’t something I celebrate much anymore as my partner/husband and I celebrate each other in small ways all the time. This year, we did what we love with the people we loved – taught Qigong class with our long-time and new students. Then we decided to go out to eat at a placeContinue reading “Post-Valentine’s Post”
