Learning how to speak through your heart, but not too much. Knowing how to use your intellect, but couple it with heartfelt compassion. When to speak and when to listen, how to keep these things balanced is part of the Art of Communication. It is an Art, one of the finest. We can so easily talk incessantly, I've been held hostage by those types far too often, and in my younger days, I think I WAS one of those people. We can use our heads all day at work then forget how to be a loving communicator when we get home. Let's make a commitment to study this art today, listen more, interrupt less. We'll come back to this one, it's huge.

Until then, Namaste.

What can you become, what do you want to be? All things are possible, if you just believe. This week, our guest will be Carol Brackoneski, who is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker from Connecicut. Carol believes in and encourages her clients to do affirmations and other wonderful tools such as yoga, meditation and visualization. Get your pen and notepaper ready, this segment will be filled with lots of great information!

If you don't get massage on a regular basis - start now! The benefits are endless. Ask me if you have any questions but I think I've said it all. :)

Namaste.

Today I'm not talking about the kind you should have in the bedroom ;) I'm talking about all the other areas of your life. Mostly the work you choose to do. Are you passionate about what you do? Does it excite you? If you had one year to live, would you still be doing it? If you're not someone who is living their dreams, taking steps in this direction may feel like taking steps off a cliff, literally. The cool thing about this cliff though is that the Universe, God and all the angels are there to catch you. Go ahead, fly! Until then, Namaste.

Synchronicity is so great because it tells us that we are not alone, that there is a divine plan in this universe. When I have questions and they are answered without my asking, that's synchronicity. When I think of someone and then they call or I run into them, that is synchronicity.

One example happened not too long ago. I realized that I felt a connection to the elephant, in Feng Shui it means 'wisdom' and my attention got hooked for the moment on elephants. Wouldn't you know, that same day my husband brought me home some bamboo and the potted structure it was in - was an elephant!! I think something and it appears. The Secret, The Law of Attraction, Synchronicity - they're all the same to me.

Try this game today - think of someone you know and then see how long it takes to hear about them, hear from them or run into them. Or if you call them, I bet they'll say, 'I was just thinking about you!' Have fun with it :)

Until next time, Namaste.

Is it so hard to have serenity? In the midst of extremes like chaos or depression it can be the most difficult thing to come by. I strongly encourage structure. Structure in our lives helps to invite serenity into the spaces.

Structure could include taking 15 minutes each morning to meditate, or if you are a beginner, start by just sitting in uninterrupted silence for 5 minutes.

Other things we can do to create structure and invite serenity into our lives: keep our checkbooks balanced, call a friend everyday, take walks regularly, be a good listener all of the time, plant a garden and take care of it, clean your bedroom, or take a bath every night.

It is by taking good care of ourselves, which is loving and kind, that creates more love in our lives. Love equals serenity. Give it a try ;)

Until next time, Namaste.
