How do You Want to Feel this Holiday Season?
Happy Holidays! I love the Holidays, yet I’m always amazed at how quickly they seem to come around each year. I attribute this “time distortion” to my full life and the many choices I have in what I do and experience on a daily basis. I love having a life rich and abundant with so many possibilities. And…those many possibilities can be overwhelming if I lose my focus on what it is I really want.

Balance and Simplicity
Balance and Simplicity bby Jackie Foskett, CH This morning as I was having my meditation-connection time, I picked up a book called “The Woman’s Book of Soul” by Sue Patton Thoele. It’s a collection of meditations I sometimes refer to when my intuition guides me. Today, I turned to “Culling Complications, Welcoming Simplicity”. As soon as I read it, I knew it was the theme to write about for this article. As I want to keep with the theme of simplicity, I will keep this short and sweet, so perhaps you might spend more time…
