by Loretta Breuning Too much wellness can be a real problem. If you always feel like you haven’t done enough, you create stress that burdens your body. You undermine the well-being you seek if you constantly berate your diet and exercise choices. You are better off celebrating your healthy lifestyle choices instead.“But I haven’t done enough!” you may say. This conundrum is real. Goals stimulate the joy of dopamine as... 4/16/2024 4:00:00 AM

by Jen Johnson We have all done it at one time or another – in a difficult moment when we already feel emotional pain, we send a second arrow of suffering toward ourselves with critical self-talk. We say things to ourselves that we would never say to someone else, and on some level, we feel we deserve it.Our harsh words may vary, but the themes are often similar—“What was I thinking?”?” “I’m so stupid” “What is wrong... 4/13/2024 4:00:00 AM
by Sherrie Campbell Life is forever challenging for us all. We carry pains and life’s lessons all the way through. None of us are exempt from these sharper edges. We are here to grow.

by Jill Sodini Choosing Quality Instead of QuantityWhen I was working for a health insurance company early in my career, there was a period of time when we used the tag line “live longer better.” I thought this was great because there were endless amounts of studies that said by adopting healthier habits lifespan could be increased or risk of death could be decreased by certain percentages. I later came to realize... 3/31/2024 4:00:00 AM

As an entrepreneur, partner, parent, and human being living in the 21st century, this seems like a perpetual equation that is nearly impossible to solve for. As opposed to the linear strategy and rigid discipline that had brought me so much success elsewhere, I found my answer in what I now lovingly... 3/16/2024 4:00:00 AM

Who cares that my knee still hurts from yesterday?! “GET UP AND MOVE YOUR ASS!” she yells. (She’s always yelling). “DON’T YOU REMEMBER THAT YOU ATE CAKE LAST NIGHT?”I spent more than 30 years believing my Inner Tyrant’s mantra... 3/10/2024 5:00:00 AM

by Stephanie McLeod-Estevez, LCPC There’s something about a fresh start. It holds the promise of what feels possible, perhaps even transformational. It’s a moment in your life when your wish for something more, for something better, is planted like a seed. Yet, you might wonder, can I do it?I believe you can.
