I have a very personal connection to the world of Motor Vehicle Accidents (MVA). Like up-close and personal. And when I think back to my time living in that world of hurt and fear, I wish that I had known then what I know now. My goal with this blog…
If you want to leave the world better than you found it, you have a fundamental responsibility to find your Edge. Kirra Michel is my favourite Peloton yoga instructor. She does these advanced classes that are just wonderfully challenging, and half the time I can’t manage most of them so…
95% of the time I spend using Highlighters in this office is NOT to underline important information. No no, but rather to produce that soul satisfying “pop” sound they make when you handle them properly. And all just for the purpose of putting a smile on my face. I can…
I’m grumpy. It’s been a week. Controversy, convoys, conspiracy correlations. I’m fed up with it, and I’m done. Except it’s not necessarily done with me. One of the most powerful lessons I ever learned as a healer was that feelings are vibrations in the body. At first, I thought that…

You know what the BEST thing about cold weather is? It’s the sweaters. Who doesn’t love wearing a good sweater? Whether knit, pullover, zip-up, hoodie. They’re all good. As we get further and further along into deep freeze territory, my collection of sweaters are seeing increasingly more and more usage.…
Ah, the sugar rush of Halloween. It doesn't just last one day, or a week... admit it, there's a pillowcase of candy in your kid's bedroom that you're going to raid for months after trick or treating ends. Don't have kids? Ah, well that's better... but you're an adult. You…
I’ve said before that growth is my only goal. In my opinion, having the full human experience means that we immerse ourself in both the comforts and discomforts of life, and allow ourselves to really feel all the feelings we have (including the negative ones). As kids, we’re obsessed with…
