I’ve been car dancing for as long as I can remember. It is a safe place for my inner rock star to emerge. So when friends Katie West of the Levity Project and Lance Ekum of the Jungle of Life asked folks to participate in a car dancing micro-movement by sending in a short video clip of ourselves car dancing, I couldn’t refuse (I’m on around 3:16 in the video). Katie is using the video as part of her mission to create social change through laughter, play and celebration.
That certainly is feel-good living. Watch the video below or click here to view the video directly
Note: I wasn’t actually driving when I shot it – too dangerous when you’re alone in the car! Enjoy and feel free to pass it along. Who couldn’t use a little more fun, lightness and car dancing in their life?
Have you recently become the caregiver of an aging or ill person? On this episode of Feel Good Living TV, I interview Hingham-based Elder Law and Estate Planning Attorney Leanna Hamill about her new program designed to help you feel less overwhelmed if you’ve recently found yourself in the position of caregiver. Leanna’s program will help you identify the action steps you need to take to make sure everyone involved is taken care of, including you as the caregiver.
Leanna works with families primarily in Eastern Massachusetts. If you are not in this area, I encourage you to read her blog or get in touch with her and she might be able to refer you elsewhere. Her blog offers a lot of valuable information about Elder Law and Estate Planning. Plus, Leanna is a great person to work with – compassionate and caring.
The interview is 10 minutes and provides a bit more information about her “Overwhelmed” program, which you can read more about on her site Hamill Law Office and then click the tab “Overwhelmed?“ You can also call her at Phone: 781.749.2284.
When you and your family are well taken care of, that is feel-good living.
Have you ever been so sick you ask yourself, “Why am I sick?” or maybe it’s more like a desperate,”Why me?”
I spent the last few days with what was either the flu, norovirus or some other illness I wouldn’t wish on anyone. Not “feel-good living”.
