A sink full of dishes, a never-ending mountain of laundry that needs folding, and a general feeling of overwhelm when you think about tackling it all. This is what we’re going to change. When we were read fairy tales, or watched the Disney versions of fairy tales, as children we never thought beyond the happily ever after.
Do you ever wonder why it is that the goals you set for yourself don’t seem to like getting met? Is it possible those goals aren’t clear enough to aim at? Goals are often set at unrealistic levels, setting us up for failure before we even start.

“Special categories” is code for a few specific items I feel deserve more attention than being lumped in with an entire room. The three categories we’re focusing on here – books, papers, and digital clutter – are all things that easily grow out of control and become so overwhelming that we turn a blind eye to them.
The products we put in our bodies and onto our skin become a part of us. Moving toward a simpler, more natural system for your body will help ensure your overall health. I have teamed up with essential oil expert Lindsay Luker of Good Leaf Life, a “guide to understanding the ingredients & solutions provided by nature to help you live peacefully & naturally”.
Creating a home you love means having the general areas of the home that you spend the most time in be as intentional and chaos-free as possible. The shared areas of the house get a lot of traffic, often with a number of people contributing to the state of the space. These areas benefit from organization specific to their functions.
The greatest gifts of yoga go far beyond the postures we do in classes. This is your opportunity to learn and apply these ancient teachings in your own life. When I trained to become a yoga teacher I was introduced to yoga as a full philosophy. The depth of the teachings of yoga blew me away and I immediately knew I needed to share this information with everyone beyond the yoga mat.
