Hey there! Hoping you’ve had a great week, and are as excited as I am to welcome in the weekend ahead. This week, we talked about distractions, and ways that mindfulness can help you to manage your attention span, especially when it comes to the pull of the screen. Now, I do realize the irony

This week, we talked about those times in life when everything you can possibly imagine having to deal with demands to be dealt with. There isn’t one thing that’s

Ah, summer. More daylight, warmer temperatures, weekends soaking up the sun and lounging by water of some kind or another…so relaxing isn’t it? If you’re not laughing already, know that I am. I mean, if your summer’s been feeling like this, I’m happy for you. I really am. Really! For a lot of people I’ve
