Welcome to the new blog and a bit on what to expect.

Thank you for visiting my new blog, Let it Flow. Here you will (soon) find the posts I’ve written over the past year, and future posts will remain similar in content. I will be forwarding the old feed to the new feed later today so you do not have to re-subscribe. If it [...]

How do you handle life’s curve balls?

By definition expectation is: “the act or state of looking forward or anticipating”. When I think about my own expectations I tend to create futuristic stories about what my day will look like tomorrow, plans for tonight, or what I’ll do over Memorial Day weekend. These expectations usually occur when I’ve planned an activity or [...]

Friday Quote and Blog Changes/Updates

They say that time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself.
- Andy Warhol

And so this blog will change because I’ve decided to change it. It’s been a year and it’s time. I’ve been working on a new blog site/design and URL which I’m hoping will be published shortly after returning [...]

Music Motivation - What’s on your workout playlist?

I am very much looking forward to returning to this peaceful center in the Berkshires for some time to just focus [...]

Friday Quote and What Puts a Smile on Your Face?

A day without laughter is a day wasted. - Charlie Chaplin (1889-1977) English-born Comedic Actor and Director
What a perfect way to end the week, I thought, with a list of what makes you [...]

"Says who?" You Do.

Rules, belief systems, choices. These can cause blockages for us in everything we do. Thinking things have to be a certain way, believing we have to look a certain way, thinking what society says goes and there are no other choices.
Couldn’t be more wrong. Was just reading blog updates from my friends [...]

How Yoga and Meditation Can Aid Weight Loss

I get asked this question a lot “Will yoga or meditation help me lose weight?”
Simply put: No.
In order to lose weight you need to burn and/or decrease calories - modifying your food intake and incorporating exercise is the way to do that. Meditation, typically a sitting practice, will not expend a lot [...]

How would you answer the question: "What do you do?"

A week or so ago Naomi over at Ittzybiz challenged her readers to answer a few questions about what our small business is all about. It started when one of her own readers emailed her that same question. She asked us, “How many of your readers know what you do?” The question [...]
