Conscious Coupling in the Kitchen, Episode 1: Pecan Butter
I’m kind of obsessed with pecan butter. It’s creamy and sweet, and yet there is no sugar in it. Something about those pecans just makes everything taste sweeter… And since my husband, Ted, likes pecan butter so much (and often polishes off a batch before I’ve had a chance to fully enjoy it), I’ve invited […]
Are you giving up yourself for your to-do list? Here’s how to stop it today.
When was the last time you did something for yourself? I’m talking about getting a massage. Taking yourself out to dinner. Buying yourself something you really wanted.

Beauty in Breakdown: How Your Emotions can Guide you to Make Better Choices
I don’t cry a lot. I’m not sure why. It just doesn’t happen that often. Don’t get me wrong – I get upset when I hear sad stories, or when bad things happen to good people. But most of the time I just get quiet and pensive rather than let the tears fall. I retreat […]

Information about life, how to set goals while not getting so carried away with them that you forget to enjoy the present moment, how to cultivate healthy relationships (I’m still happily married, so that has to count for something….right husband, Ted?…..Ted?….), how to eat […]
The One Question to Ask Yourself This New Year’s Eve
If you’ve been reading my posts for a while, or if you know me personally, then you know I am a big goal setter. I talk about goals, I write them down, I make plans to make them happen, and then, miraculously – they do! Remarkably, I’ve been able to achieve most of the goals […]
How I Helped my Cousin Lose 10 Pounds in 3 Weeks
Despite the title, you should know that this post isn’t about weight loss. It’s not about getting lean. It’s not about building muscle. Heck, it’s not even about getting healthy. In the end, all of these things will be accomplished, but that is not the point of this post. This post is about bravery. It’s […]
