Why Make the Tweaks?

“Success comes from taking the initiative and following up…persisting…eloquently expressing the depth of your love.”                                   ~Tony Robbins In a world of big ideas, sensational movies, swift moving internet connections, the ‘wow’ factor of TV commercials, and increased intensity everywhere… Do our subtle, small consistent daily efforts count? It’s a Resounding Yes! I’m talking about the little steps we take everyday to do what we set out to do. Or, each time we choose to shift our attitude from being right to forgiveness. Or, when we put our focus on what we choose to focus on, rather than let our mind run wild with a story. Each time we keep our word to ourselves and to others, these mini-moments of impeccability count. The incremental efforts

Holidays Don’t Create Stress

We have ability to cultivate and share our inner PEACE.

Tips for Women in Relationship

“In the absence of love, we begin slowly but surely to fall apart.” ~ Marianne Williamson In relationship, both men and women sometimes feel unheard, not seen and misunderstood by their partners.
