When we're rooted in fear, we become unbalanced. Fear is self-induced and even though we create it for ourselves, we have an awfully hard time ridding ourselves of it. It's like a virus that creeps into all realms of our life and the only way to get rid of it is to be mindful of [...]
Answers are presented to us when we're ready to receive them - not when we THINK we're ready, when we ARE ready. We can think one thing, but we may be another. There are so many things, too many to actually count in my life that I've prayed for time and time again and waited [...]
Loving yourself is the hardest most difficult thing you're ever going to have to do in life. Some of you may think "yeah right" or try to dispute that, but it's true.

Sometimes we mistake the things we want for the things we need. There's a big difference and when you're in the moment of lusting and craving [...]
Today, ask yourself this one question. What has been draining your happiness? A relationship, job, situation, friend or a bad habit? If something doesn't excite your soul, let it go. Release the need to please everyone and make everything right. You can leave your wake of love and kindness behind you as you follow your [...]
