It's easy to stop paying attention to your physical exercise from time to time. It's normal to let a few days go occasionally but when it become a week or two, it can hurt, both literally and figuratively.

I'm from a long line of worriers. It's very familiar terrain for me. Large and small worries pop upbut I've proudly learned how to tame them. In part, it's a project of turning the fears into facts.

When there are concerns or worries in your mind, it's a good time to clean house. Literally. I tell my clients when they say life feels chaotic and overwhelming to organize and take stock of their stuff in their home.

One of my darling clients was a game player. She played her cards in romantic relationships but it wasn't helping her find the love affair she wanted.

I didn't want to write today. I actually forgot to do it until the evening. Then I started it but blew it off to do other things. Then I was reminded that just doing it, getting it done, going the extra mile would make me feel better not just in this very moment but the next day.

Struggles are inevitable, part of our human experience and existence. Each person’s dark days are dark, no need to compare who has it worse or better. People suffer about everything...

Let's set the record straight about judgmental thoughts -- not all judging is harsh and malevolent!
It’s truly a universal human behavior. We assess, consider, decide, and arbitrate about people, situations, and everything all the time.

Clients share that they aren’t fulfilled with their life. In our early discussions, I put together a picture of what they are doing in their days. Some are aware that they are pushing off activities that are meaningful to them but they don’t know how to change it.

We are closing in on the holidays. Let’s consider how we want this time to go down. People often feel very stressed during this time. It’s unfortunate and unnecessary.

People create hurtful experiences for themselves with self-inflicted negative thoughts. These thoughts are basically cruel indictments. It's a common human tendency and I hear it from my clients.
