Oh, Spring! I am feeling the call to do all of the things again. The weather is getting nice and warm. The grass is starting to grow again. The plants are coming back. The sun is shining for longer hours. I'm ready to put the winter gear away. I know it's a mistake- it's too … Continue reading Spring Cleaning. Again.

2022.
Happy New Year! This year I am committing to more writing and have a bit of a plan. Each month I am going to work through a wellness topic, explore different aspects, and hopefully discover some beliefs and habits that can be cleared and replaced with something more in-line with where I am right now. … Continue reading 2022.
Nurture.
Nurture yourself like you would nurture a plant. It's been a while since I've sat down to type up a pondering post but, here I am. I've been in a bit of a weird place lately. One that's felt familiar... always the same, yet always uncomfortable. In my life I find myself oscillating between feeling … Continue reading Nurture.
Growth on Growth.
The energy around me has gotten me this far. Look at how much I've grown. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Now it's time to keep moving forward. I've done the best with what I have and now it's time to grow. It's time to create a nurturing habitat to plant new seeds and cultivate … Continue reading Growth on Growth.

I previously discussed my return to running in the post Remember. While it has been a slow process, I am grateful for the opportunity to discuss it here.

Dawn.
It is a new day and I am grateful. For every challenging day I have, I know that a good rest and a new dawn follow. It may not be a better day, but it is different and I know I am also different. Growth happens during rest and I feel that I have more … Continue reading Dawn.
The New Moon.
I've started paying attention to the Moon Phases in the past couple of years. It's amazing what a difference tracking the Moon makes when you look at cycles of energy expansion and contraction. The idea is that in the time between the New Moon and the Full Moon, energy expands as the Moon waxes, and … Continue reading The New Moon.
Rest.
What comes up when you think about rest? It is a four-letter word for some. I find that rest gets confused with weakness, laziness, and apathy a lot, but rest done well can be a gift and a place of growth. There is no weakness in rest. It is a place to inventory what is … Continue reading Rest.
