Are We Really Caring or Do We Pretend to Care?

Are We Really Caring or Do We Pretend to Care?

Healing, Lifestyle, Nature, Relationships
On a trip home from Ottawa, an experience reminded me of the importance of caring. My husband and I had stopped at a comfort station along highway 401 near Toronto. It was a busy Sunday evening with lots of traffic, so lots of people in the restaurants and bathrooms. Upon entering the washroom area, a loud sound of rushing water came roaring all the way down the long row of bathroom stalls. I couldn’t tell where the water noise was coming from but it sounded like a toilet stuck in flush mode. Maintaining our clean water supply is important, so I naturally started looking for the cause. As I walked by each stall it became clear the culprit was the end toilet. I looked in and saw gallons of water…

3 Healing ways for Seeing the Truth and Letting Go

3 Healing ways for Seeing the Truth and Letting Go

Healing, Lifestyle, Nature, Relationships
As we move through life it's incredible how often we are tested and struggle with trying to assist or simply letting go. The truth is we can create more problems by jumping in and trying to help out, take it from me. Especially with the folks we care about, our children, our partner, our parents, friends and clients. I was always willing to jump in and help but I have finally learned a huge lesson. You can never fix what people aren't willing to change No matter how much we desire to help another person, the choice to take action or not will always be with them. Here are three ways I determine how much a person with problems, issues or complaints really wants to improve. 1. Are they taking responsibility for their part in problems? Or…

My Purpose In Life – What Am I Here To Do?

My Purpose In Life – What Am I Here To Do?

Lifestyle, Nature, Relationships
Finding My Purpose In Life - What is the job I am here to do? It's a topic clients often want to talk about in sessions. Many say "I want to know my purpose in life and what I'm supposed to do". They are unsure of what is to be their next best step. We can have purpose in everything we do, from everyday chores to efforts we make for the people around us at home and at work. Do life events push us forward or pull us back? We've all gone through tough times where we had no idea of what was ahead and everything seemed wrong. Eventually something happens that shifts us in a new direction. It may be good or bad, right or wrong, up or down,…

Spring’s Potential – Things To Enjoy

Spring’s Potential – Things To Enjoy

Lifestyle, Nature
Spring has always been my favourite season. What I love about Spring! Fresh air! During winter we stay warm by covering up and staying indoors with windows closed to keep out the freezing cold. It's a treat in Spring to step outside in fewer layers and enjoy a breath of fresh air. The warm winds of change feel delightful as we stroll about. It's exciting and enlivening to smell a natural lovely scent while walking outdoors, lilac blooms are my personal favourite. Spring flowers and all the beautiful greens are a feast for the eyes Trees are budding and their delicate new leaves unfurl in various shades of green with a few reds too! On the ground the bulbs pop up with vibrant blooms and in the woods delicate spring flowers appear. The…

Goal Zero Portable Solar Power Products Nomad 7

Goal Zero Portable Solar Power Products Nomad 7

Great Products, Nature
A Goal Zero Nomad 7 Solar Panel now lives with each member of our family. When electric power goes out for more than a few hours during a winter storm, we start feeling vulnerable and cold with no lights or heat. If we continue using our cellphones the battery power gets low and that can be uncomfortable. Most of us feel rather shut-off from the world without our electronic devices. After last winter's long power outage during the ice storm I chose to take action. While walking outside during the power outage, it was impossible to avoid hearing the load roar of gas generators at a few homes. So I decided to seek solar power solutions since they are silent and there's no smelly exhaust! I found the line of Goal Zero Portable Solar Power Products. They make…

Snowflakes Falling In The Night

Snowflakes Falling In The Night

Nature, Relationships
In recent weeks there's been an ice storm, tons of snow and extreme cold. This week has seemed a breeze as warmer winter temperatures make life easier. Plus when the sun shines it's really quite beautiful outside. This evening while out for a walk I was happy to witness lovely huge snowflakes slowly drifting down from the dark sky above. My husband laughed as I opened my mouth, stuck out my tongue and tried to catch the big fluffy snowflakes. It's fun to feel the cool tingle as the snowflakes instantly melt in your mouth!  What I most appreciated about the snowflakes was the flood of childhood memories that rose up in that very moment. I remembered so many times I had done the exact same thing as a child,…
