Achieving Health & Balance in Body, Mind & Spirit (or at least working on it!)
I just finished cleaning the area under my kitchen sink and it feels good! We all have corners of our homes that begin to accumulate things and we don’t pay attention to. One day we look at this corner and think, “How did all that stuff get there?” The shelf liner under my sink was [...]

I got a wonderful reminder email from Daily Om about enduring discomfort when we try to change our habits. (Click on Daily Om link above to read.)

Last Saturday, I went to do a run with my younger son’s cross country team from Golden Valley High School. They were doing “The Beast”, [...]

Think of your car-you only fill the fuel tank when you need fuel for your car. [...]
