Owning Pink | Get your mojo on

By Guest Author

There was a moment. A moment of such profound, terrifying beauty that it rattled the core of my life. At the time it happened, I was too far gone with anxiety and sadness to know the direction it would propel me. I couldn’t know the impact, significance or timestamp it would place on my heart. All I knew was I was in the middle school auditorium at my 12-year-old daughter’s’ dance recital on a Mother’s Day weekend and I was losing my shit in a public, sobbing, gulping, nose-running mess. As discreetly as it could, my heart cracked open and tears ran down my neck onto the soft, blond curly hair of the baby I clutched to my chest...

From My Hands & Heart: How Craniosacral Therapy Can Benefit Your Health

By Monica Wilcox

A week ago I had never heard of Craniosacral Therapy. Today I’m lying on a massage table getting my first session. Serendipity: the gift that keeps on giving. The therapist, Kate Mackinnon asks me a few questions. How am I feeling? Great, minus the stress of introducing your novel to the world. Any aches or pains? Would my daughter’s social studies grade count? Any surgeries or traumatic physical events. Well, I threw my upper ribs out doing P90X, I’ve delivered 2 kids and I had this freakishly embarrassing waterskiing accident in the early ‘90s that cleaned out my bowels, bladder and uterus. I eventually ended up in surgery to...

6 StepsTo Authentic Self Confidence For Women

By Dana Theus

Why would anyone follow a leader with no self-confidence? They wouldn’t. Do women struggle with self-confidence more than men? Yes. Then why are we surprised when there aren’t as many female leaders as male leaders in our businesses and society? We shouldn’t be. Now, I know very well that moving women in to more leadership positions is a bit more complicated than this and I’m not trying to suggest an easy fix to women’s inequality… but I am saying that for too long women have “bought” the stories society has told us about how we “can’t lead like a man” (which, by the way, research says is true) and that “leading like a woman...

What Needs To Die?

By Danielle Dowling M.A.

What in your life is so inflamed + aggravated that it gnaws at your psyche? What keeps you up at night bleary-eyed + restless? What keeps you contemplative in the shower? Zoned out behind the wheel? What in your life is dying, fading, falling apart so that something else can be manifest? And why don’t you let it die? Whatever it is, is clearly over. Done. Finito. Yet, we cling, white-knuckled, to any remaining scraps. This is our ancient fear of change run amuck. And we tell ourselves this present decay must be better than the unknown that is waiting on the other side. Like a scavenger dog we sink our teeth into the...

An Eggy Book Launch - Happy Birth Day Mind Over Medicine!

Lissa Rankin,

May 6, 2013

Today is the birth day of my third book, Mind Over Medicine: Scientific Proof That You Can Heal Yourself. Normally, I’d follow that sentence with a “Cue trumpets, let’s do cartwheels, “can you say PAR-TEE?” sort of comment. But on this very exciting day, I find myself oddly calm, peaceful, and contemplative instead of bouncy cheerleadery. Launching a book is a funny thing, and I’ve found myself reflecting lately about why we authors do what we do. Most people dream about one day writing a... Read More.....

“It’s All In Your Head” ~ A Psychologist’s Take On Mind Over Medicine

Leslie Carr,

May 5, 2013

When Lissa Rankin first told me that she was writing a book about the impact that our thoughts, feelings, and beliefs can have on our physical health, I was enthralled. Million of neurons began to fire while I recalled what I’ve learned about this subject, and I felt like my brain had been set on fire. I hope that doesn’t sound too dramatic. Well I just finished reading the book and I need to tell you: the woman delivers. The information that she covers here is not only vitally important, but... Read More.....

A Meditation For Healing Addiction

Gabrielle Bernstein,

May 4, 2013

Let’s face it: in some form or another we all suffer from addiction. These days we often turn to drugs, alcohol, food, sex, work, the Internet and many other addictive obsessions in efforts to avoid feeling our discomfort. If we’re not addicted to the drugs, cigarettes or the typical vices then we are subconsciously addicted to fear, rejection, victim-hood etc. In some way we’re all addicted to negative patterns. When we’re addicted there is an imbalance in the pineal... Read More.....

Choosing To Be Happy

Marcia Wieder,

May 2, 2013

Is happiness a personal choice? Absolutely! Here’s how I changed my entire existence in one day and with one thought. I decided and chose to be happy. Please don’t read this or write it off as being sappy. I am absolutely 100% serious about happiness. There are a lot of books out on this topic right now. I have never read any of them. “Why would I need that?”, I silently thought. But I noticed I was moody, sometimes happy sometimes far from it. I saw that my state was often based on what...
