Did you know? Laughter can decrease stress hormones. It triggers the release of endorphins, which are your body's natural feel-good chemicals, and these endorphins promote an overall sense of well-being. Good, good, and more good!

Tomorrow. Ahh, such a freeing word. It buys us some time. Yet, tomorrow often pairs well with avoidance, and we all know avoidance is just a temporary fix. You've been there before: "I'll get to it tomorrow." "Tomorrow I will tackle x, y, z." "I will get around to doing this tomorrow." We have ALL… Continue reading Just Do It

I either usually know exactly what I want to say when I'm writing my posts, or the ideas start coming to me freely once I begin. But today. Today is different. This post is different.
