Urg…those negative emotions. Sometimes they can seem to pop out of the blue and put a damper on what was an otherwise good day. So what gives with the negativity we can experience and how can we let negative emotions go when they appear?

Some days it can appear like there is no shortage of people to judge (including judging ourselves). But when we judge, who exactly are we judging? When we…

If you do you are certainly not alone, but it doesn’t have to be that way for you or anyone. It’s time for a MindShift Moment.

The belief that you are unworthy is simply another illusion that you and many others have been conditioned to believe is true. No one is more worthy than another. We are…

Have you ever played golf? I played several times many years ago but never really go into it. I would get bored easily and found I was far more interested in being out in nature and driving the golf cart than swinging a club against a little ball. But I did pick up a few things and one was to…

Science is helping us to unravel the mystery of life, the universe, the how, what, where, when and why of all that is, but there is…

When you expect a hassle don’t be surprised if you get a hassle. Why? You have already…

Do you have a person or perhaps more than one person who really gets under your skin and pushes your buttons? I’m not talking about a person who is physically, mentally or emotionally abusive. That’s a topic for another day. I’m talking about that person who rubs you the wrong way. They could be a…

Several years ago, I was invited to attend a workshop focused on goals and how to be what you want to be in life. Along with various speakers, there were exercises throughout the workshop for the attendees to participate in if they chose. One of the exercises was to …

Sometimes people come into our lives for a lifetime, a short time and perhaps only for a brief moment, yet no matter the duration some of them can stay in our heart forever. My ex-father-in-law was one of those people. I first met Phil over…

Often we will look to other people, places, objects, lifeforms, experiences, etc. to bring us happiness. We can believe that by liking/loving these things, that very act will make us happy. We can believe that once another person likes/loves us that we will be happy. But is that true?…

Do you feel you are more or less important than another some or all of the time? It’s understandable if you do. Our world systems and our culture are filled with…

At times, life can get crazy busy, stressful and overwhelming. When this happens, our first reaction to deal with what is happening is often to react impulsively without thinking things through. This happens because…

I was watching a video the other day that talked about how young children are in a constant state of creativity. Whether it’s playing dress up, colouring, playing in the mud, or telling stories, little ones are always creating. The video then went on to say as we grow up we stop creating. Instead, we…

As you go about your day, it seems logical to believe that what you deduce about something you observe or experience is indeed a fact.

But is that true?…

For many, the change over to a new year brings with it a desire to set a goal; an intention at the individual level. For example, lose weight, quit smoking, declutter, get in shape, be debt free, etc.

But what if this year,…

When life doesn’t go the way we want it to, it can be helpful to be open to receiving wisdom and guidance from nature. It’s wisdom never ceases to amaze me. Here’s an example: A few weeks ago,…

Every day, we make countless decisions. From what can appear to be small and insignificant decisions, to large and potentially life-changing decisions. Making decisions is a part of life here on planet Earth and for the most part, we like to…

Do you pride yourself on being independent? I know I tend to. It certainly appears that to be independent in the 21st century is now a societal expectation and those who demonstrate it are often congratulated as if they have reached a milestone in the game of life. Independence is worn like a badge of honour or a trophy. But…
