resolutions

Each new year represents a clean slate and a time to create course corrections to those areas in our lives that aren’t meeting our expectations.  This is why we create things like new year’s resolutions and create promises to make this upcoming calendar year better than the last.  Whereas these intentions are great, there is at times a reluctance to implement these changes in our lives because it typically represents moving out of our comfort zone. 

Often, January is filled with resolutions you don't intend to keep. But what if I told you there were resolutions you could make now that would forever change the planet? Well, if nothing else this new year, I challenge you to keep these five sustainable resolutions. Let this be the year you dedicate to helping the earth in ways that make a big impact. 

With all due respect to the fantastic goal gurus out there, this year I start different, and I start new. Here’s how, and 10 reasons why![MOU1] 

Cancer Full Moon—Jan. 1, 2018

Happy New Year! Happy Full Moon in Cancer! 

In astrology, the Moon represents the storehouse of all the emotions from all the experiences we’ve ever had.  And because the sign of Cancer represents home, ancestry, and lineage, it is where the Moon has the strongest link with our past. 

Body positive. We’ve heard this term being bandied about for the past few years, and 2016 was no different. Though we’ve heard reed-thin models gushing about body acceptance and famous (and drop-dead gorgeous) celebrities blathering about accepting your true self – what is exactly does it mean to be not conventionally good looking and still being body positive? It’s easy for the rich and famous to say these things, for they fit into the mold of society’s definition of beauty. But what about us mere mortals? With our jowly chins and jiggly bellies, not so great skin or too tall a height?
