How I Learn to Let Go and Love the Holidays
This holiday season I’m being prompted to do more with less. I find I have no interest in spending a lot of money on gifts, nor have I bought into the ‘crazy busy’ intensity of Christmases past. It’s been this way ever since my daughter Teal died in 2012. The only thing that really matters […]

What Sarasvati Wants You to Know
Have you ever heard a really good song — one that filled your soul and lit you up, so you truly felt better for hearing it? Or read a book that was so rich you couldn’t keep from sharing it with your friends? Perhaps you saw a movie that changed you in some way … making you feel […]
