You shouldn’t wait to begin the journey of self-exploration and compiling your wisdom and advice for the people you love. Knowing your authentic self is the first sep in loving yourself, which is the first step in loving others well and changing the world.
You are enough
May is Mental Health Awareness Month with the theme “You are enough.” The messaging fits a series of videos I’m working on about identity, existentialism and existential crises. Stay tuned for more.
You are the love the world needs
It’s not news that things just seem more and more depressing and disheartening out there. I posted this video a couple weeks ago after yet another mass shooting in the U.S. Only when we can love ourselves can we love others, and it’s what the world needs now. (Thanks, Burt Bacharach!)
In-person laughing yoga
I am collaborating with a local acupuncturist and healer to offer in-person laughing yoga the fourth Saturday of every month.

And I am always available to lead private groups in-person or virtually for employee health and wellness, women’s weekends, retreats, parties or what have you. Just let me know.
