I blogged over a year ago where I had a song attached by my friend Blu Sanders.  Somehow it’s coming back around with everything that is going on, on our planet: Tragedies at our Universities, Occupy Wall Street (Where people aren’t listening) and Big business atrocities.  The song is called World without hope and there’s no way I could keep going without it! Remember that the more you focus on something the more you have!!

So know that there is hope and we as people can continue to make a difference if we hold it close.

Finding Fun! November 14, 2011

I know that at the beginning of a relationship finding fun is a no brainer.  Everything we do is fun and new and exciting! In some cases just reading the telephone book together is an awesome thing because… let’s face it. It ‘s NEW!!!  But what happens years into the relationship when the bills are calling and the kids need something and you are overworked…. How do you find time to allow for the intimacy and carve out some time for fun…?  So do you make a date night that’s sacred? Do you lock the door and have the kids watch a movie??? Go for a walk somewhere you have never gone before?  Do something new!

 

These moments are integral in fostering the intimacy between two people.  If everything else comes before the two of you, you will lose contact and forget the reason you are even together in the first place.  When life gets ahead of you as it most certainly will, Stop and ask yourself, “What is going on for me right now?”  Bring yourself back into the moment and ask if you are living as authentically as you can, as connectedly as you can and as fun as you can. By taking a deep breath in through your nose and out your mouth you will center yourself.  Then you can ask yourself not only what you need, but what you want in that moment.  For when we lose the fun in our lives (no matter where we are, in or out of a relationship) life loses it luster.  So go out and PLAY!! Carve out some time in your crazy schedule for some silliness!

10 Steps to a Healthy Relationship! November 9, 2011

 

So I have been working on a seminar for December…. That said I’ve titled it, “10 Steps to a Healthy Relationship!” I wondered if the titled seemed to trite but each point has myriad discussion topics.  Which got me thinking… What are your important guidelines to a healthy relationship? What do you need in order to facilitate good communication? Let’s talk! What is your healthy relationship like? And more importantly where is your relationship being blocked and how do you need help? Where can we, together let the flood gates open to a Wonderfully supportive relationship?

How do you unplug? October 26, 2011

As I sit here listening to the clock tick and the birds chirp, I wonder how do people unplug?  We, myself included run around during our day strapped to our phone.  Not but 10 years ago we were able to leave our home/office and be relatively untethered.  But now between texting, IM’ing, Facebook, Twitter, blogs, LinkedIn or any social media for that fact (along with all the different  pieces of technology we use) we undergo a barrage of static energy.  For our business and our relationships to work we have told ourselves this is how it needs to be.  But I want to know: What do you want it to be?  How can we find that happy medium where our business and intimate relationships can thrive? How can you unplugged? Turn off? Put down and walk away from this stimulus?

You know how when your on vacation and you decide to turn off your phone and computer it can take at least a few days to realize that you aren’t running late for something? You know that feeling: “I know I should be doing something”.  How do you allow it to dissipate?  It amazes me how long it takes that anxious feeling to go away and it’s even stronger when you work for yourself! What can you do to unplug, step away and put down the gadgets?  Is it taking a walk… without them? Meditate? How do you give yourself permission to not respond?  I have really been enjoying getting out in nature and going for a walk… Heaven.  This stress level can and to myriad illnesses as we know. So let’s start a dialogue on what we can do to let in the air, Love and space!

What do you do?

Feeling Uninspired…. August 22, 2011

Get out and take a walk!

I was just about to post on my personal Facebook page that I was staring at my blog feeling uninspired to write, without any ideas….  So I though I would write about, just that!  How often through out the day do you stare at your work space feeling uninspired?  I know for me when that happens I get up and do a myriad other things.  Like clean my desk for the umpteenth time or clean part or all of my apartment. If this doesn’t work I take a walk, get out.  As  a writer of a few different projects the idea, for me is to ultimately just sit down and write.  It doesn’t matter how long as long as I do it.  As a blogger I figured write about how I’m feeling right now.  I don’t know about you but I get inspired when I hear about a friend who allocates a specific amount of time each day and just does it! Or the illustrious Deepak Chopra who has written many of his mountain of books right on his phone!  I have to remember, for me…. baby steps.

So my question to you is: What do you do to stay inspired?  How do you keep from getting the dull drums?  For me at the end of the day it is about living life to its fullest and as I always say, “Look up and look out!”

What are the signs of Procrastination… August 17, 2011

Everyone has moments where they procrastinate, but do you know what the sign’s are?  I read a great article today that got me thinking. Do you know what he’s in your way of completing tasks? What are your blocks? Do you know how to set time sensitive object goals?  Here is a great list of signs of the procrastination.

Compulsive procrastinators may not have all the signs listed here, but if you identify with many of these characteristics, you are probably a compulsive procrastinator.

  1. Disappointment is a way of life. We constantly disappoint other people and ourselves by not keeping our promises.
  1. We have enormous difficulty getting started on new projects, or transitioning from one project to another.
  1. We have a very poor sense of time, chronically underestimating or overestimating how long a task will take us to complete.
  1. We have difficulty organizing projects by breaking them down into steps; we don’t know where to start, even when we’re willing to start.
  1. We are surrounded by clutter and disorganization in our homes and work spaces.
  1. We are regularly late for appointments.
  1. We are acutely aware of what we should be doing, or think we should be doing, and oddly out of touch with what we actually want and need.
  1. We feel uncomfortable saying “no” to requests from others, and instead express our resentment through the passive resistance of procrastination.
  1. We suffer from Demand Resistance, causing us to do anything and everything except the one thing we most need to do.
  1. We are short-term thinkers, focusing on short-term pleasure while ignoring long-term well-being.

If any of these possibly relate to you a great way to manage them is to work with a Certified Life Coach!

Summer Heat…. July 24, 2011

Little Sahara

With the mercury rising and most people up in arms because of the heat, what opportunity can you find instead of an obstacle when going about our daily routine.  I have to admit I’ve made many a joke when talking about the increasingly rising temp…i.e. “Another naked day in NYC!”.  But I really do LOVE the heat!! I have found that it slows me down.  I stroll instead of walk the mock speeds I tend to do.  Which in turn gives me the opportunity to look up and look out (that phrase I love so much) a bit more than I usually do.  I get some vitamin D and feel a bit more apart of the world.  And isn’t it being part of something, what it’s all about?

Instead of thinking, “This heat is gross!” You can think, “How fun to wear shorts!” or “I’m so glad we have…what ever kind of seasons you have!”.  Then I start to wonder where else I may be seeing an obstacle instead of an opportunity? Work or relationships?  So, where might you being seeing obstacles? What can this luxurious heat be teaching you other than, “It’s really nice to go naked!”?

Enjoy!

Alone vs. Lonely February 7, 2011

We live in a coupling society… So I ask you how does one go through it alone with out feeling lonely? When is it good simply to be alone? There comes a point in time where everyone hears from all sides, be it friends and family and even people that we don’t know, “Why are you not in a relationship? Your so wonderful?” And then we start wondering if there is something wrong with us because we aren’t coupled.

So I invite you to look at yourself… Actually I challenge you to look deeply. How do you treat yourself and others around you? Are you as anabolic as you can be? Meaning: How joyful, loving, Compassionate and Passionate about you and those around you. “Absolute Passion is the highest for of Consciousness” Hence you treat yourself and others with the utmost love and respect! So as you are out and about living your most authentic life you meet your mate that resonates with who you are. So I’m saying in terms of being alone and happy verses being lonely look within… How anabolic are you?
