“To attract positive things in your life, start by giving off positive energy.”
Stress can be a very dreadful and a difficult situation that is why it should be given enough attention as soon as possible so that it would not lead to a more serious and chronic situation as what I have disc
It’s that time of year again! The outside temperatures begin to plummet and the inevitable runny nose and coughing soon follows. Although there is no know cure for colds and the flu, there are ways to prevent the symptoms from occurring. One of the main ways to naturally prevent the cold is by b

We say things like, “It’s my time to shine,” and “Don’t hate the player, hate the game” and all those other fun quips and adages. But at the heart of each saying is the same message: “Get off my back!”
We all have our own style, signature and colored lens
Every year when the holidays roll around I think of the first few years we were married, and the first year or so we had our first child and remember how hard it was during the holidays to have little or no money. I know, Christmas is not about the gifts, but there is an aura of frenzy and prese
Whether you’re at stay/work at home mom. A work outside the home mom. A single mom. A married mom. A mom in a commune. Motherhood’s a big, sloppy, glorious job requiring full on manual labor from the heart.
We all have a million things we want to do, need to do, try to do and we expect ou
HURRICANE SANDY IS TAKING THE EAST COAST BY STORM. It’s important that you stay safe, but being stuck at home doesn’t mean you’re sentenced to days of boredom. Use this as an opportunity to relax, unwind, and accomplish the things you never have a chance to do. Here are 10 ways to keep you
When my husband and I conceived our children, there was no pressure. Our first baby was conceived unexpectedly on vacation while we were still in our planning to plan to have a baby phase.Our second daughter was conceived on the second month of “trying” and our third pregnancy was completely
One in eight women will be diagnosed with Breast Cancer at some point during her life.
That’s a terrifying statistic. I don’t want to worry that my little girls may someday be among those 1 in 8 women.
At a family function earlier this year, my cousin and I were talking about her
As moms, we often let our health be the last thing we keep tabs on. We keep track of immunizations and health checks for our little ones, but we let ours go by the wayside.
So, what should we be doing for ourselves at each stage of our life? As we get older, do things change? Well, I set out to g
Matt and I will be celebrating our 11 year wedding anniversary this June 30th. I’m as crazy for the guy as I was the day I laid eyes on him. I remember seeing Matt in early 1998 and thinking to myself, “That’s the kind of guy I want to be with.” Fate had its hand in securing that later that
If you are like most of the rest of us, finding time in the day to go to the bathroom is hard enough without trying to schedule longer periods of time for anything else. You hit the floor in the morning and seems to be on a hamster wheel until it is time to fall into bed exhausted every night

Ever get in a funk? Feel a little depressed and feel like you just can’t get out of that hole? I hate when that happens and believe me when I say, after this past month, I know the feeling all to well. But I am, by nature, a glass half-full girl and you can’t keep me down for long.

I knew that ashram living wasn’t going to be easy for me. Out of everything I expected to experience during the course of my trip – the meditation, curriculum, 4-5 hour yoga classes, traveling through a foreign country alone, it was the two meal a day schedule that shook me up the most.

Want to know the number one reason more people don’t meditate? They simply believe they don’t know how. Or they think they’re doing it wrong. One of the most common complaints from meditation-phobes is that they’re easily distracted: They sit down and close their eyes, and all they can t
Life is crazy. No longer do we have hours to ourselves to while away, pondering the meaning of life. So it’s important to make the time to do something to reconnect ourselves with our bodies and with the present moment. I, like many women, do this through yoga.
Most of the time, however, I find m
