If your world is filled with darkness, it's time to be the light.
Today, on a tumultuous day for all Americans, we need to remember what matters most. We can't control everything, we can hardly control anything, but we can control ourselves and our own actions. We can control how much love we give, and how much we keep for ourselves. Today, instead of casting hate and worry …

I've been thinking about and practicing stillness this month, attempting to manifest the physical sensations of the emotional state I currently find myself in. For the last two and a half years since I graduated college, our world has been in constant flux. We moved to Atlanta, we traveled to New England and North Carolina …

Even when I'm running late, and feeling disheveled, I feel grateful for the life I have. This morning, I let my alarm go off for nearly an hour, and finally woke up only thanks to sweet Simba. I let the pups out to do their business, and they came right back in after. I herded …

The other is a jewelry box, with sacred stones and spiritual beads that will fill the heart and soul of your daily practice. I'm constantly telling my friends and my …
After I post on my blog, or upload something new to Instagram, I always click through the posts with the same hashtags I used. At first, I think I did this to get more attention on social media. Now, I do it for inspiration. To see what other creative spirits are putting out into the …
If you're anything like me, your relationship with money is broken and it hasn't been your priority to fix it. This weekend I finished a book, Creating Money: Attracting Abundance, one that I'd been working on for a while. When I first picked up this book, I was prepared for practical budgeting advice, lucrative entrepreneurial …
