Striving Toward Non-Striving with Mindfulness and Awareness
How do we know when to act and when to let go? When to push for something, whether it’s toward a goal, an achievement, an aspiration, and when to relax and find ease? As humans we are conditioned to stay busy. When we are not doing anything we feel like we are wasting a day. For example, we work so hard to be able to go on vacation and take mental breaks, yet as quickly as we get time away, we feel guilty or uncomfortable doing nothing. When we are not moving, are minds are busier than ever searching for what we could do to feel “productive.” How do we know when to move and when to just be? Mindfulness training and awareness are the keys to finding balance between striving and non-striving.

What You Give, You Get: Embracing the Universal Law through Intention and Positivity
One of the primary laws of the universe is “What you give, you get.” I like to look at this as the power of reciprocity! An easy way to start working with this law is to set a morning intention each day. I set mine around something positive. Today my intention is to be kind, creative and full of light energy to share with those I meet. This is the first step in my day to send positivity out into the universe.
