Forgiveness is Badass 150 150 admin

Forgiveness is Badass

If you have resentments with people from your past, know that this resentment is not hurting them, it’s hurting you.  Let them go…like a hot coal.  You’d be surprised how much energy you can spend in this emotion.

I’m seeing this with family after living with them.  As I learn more about their past, I learn why they did the things they did and why they passed things down to me that are crazy, and it becomes easier to forgive once I really walk in their shoes, or at least see things from their point of view.

Your job, and my job is to keep the good and discard the bad for the next generation and keep progress going.

Also note that forgive does not mean forget.  Don’t let your boundaries be violated continuously.  Set and enforce your boundaries, but let the anger go, and find meaning by helping others heal their resentments.

Charity Water

Charity Water is a non-profit organization bringing clean and safe drinking water to people in developing countries.

The video below pulled me in on a Youtube Ad (wtf?), and I’m happy it did. I decided to donate a small amount monthly and want it to grow over time. This is actually the best money I’ve spent in a while…as in…I’m really happy about this purchase.

Join me in supporting them! But before you do watch the videos below, check out their mission here and if you feel inspired like I do, donate here.




Why Water?



How to get out of my head! 150 150 admin

How to get out of my head!

There can be a tendency to be stuck in your head – especially if you’re a really logical and analytical or if you habitually go there.

You know what I see people do? If there a person that’s stuck in their head and trying to figure it all out on their own you’ll see this a lot from them ? That’s a “roll-eyes” emoji, but I mean it more in the sense that it’s a look I see when someone is trying to think up a solution or a response instead of sitting with the feedback for a moment and responding from the heart.

This can lead to recurring problems that you can’t seem to solve. That’s because some problems just aren’t a good match to solve at the head level. And some problems aren’t a good match to solve at YOUR head level.

“Problems cannot be solved at the same level of awareness that created them.” – Albert Einstein.

If you’re this kind of person, you might also feel the limitations of this approach. You might see people having way more fun and flow and having better results all around the board, and you look at this logically and it’s like WTF? How?

Head: logical, analytical, step-by-step, systems, equations, formulas, repetition

Heart: Fun, flow, creativity, teamwork, co-creation, funny, heart-centered events, deep dives, explorations, sharing, surrender and trust

Volunteering is a great way to get into your heart. Take a day feeding the homeless or helping animals. Have an intention to spend your time genuinely caring and having fun with others (flow).

Going to a heart-centered event. Something that would seem fun to you. Genuine. Fun. To. You.

Dive deep into your interests shamelessly.

Hanging out with other heart-centered people can help you shift too!

Feeling gratitude now can put you in a heart-centered mode.

Co-creating anything cool with others who have an intention to also create something cool…maybe a project or an experience or a group call or workshop.

Understand that I’m suggesting that you swing the pendulum here towards the heart – not leave the head out all together forever. Head is too great to leave out! ? ?

If you’ve been exclusively head, then switch to the heart mode. When you can get the head and the heart in sync and dancing together, there can be some magic! I’m talking Careless Whisper magic. Have some great sax like that song.
