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...

Are You Living On Purpose?

Mike Robbins,

April 6, 2013

I was recently invited to be a speaker for an upcoming online telesummit calledThe Power of Purpose. While I’m honored to be a part of this program, the invitation had me pause and reflect a bit about my own life and work, and specifically ask myself the question, “Am I living on purpose?” My initial answer was, “Yes, of course I am.” However, as I thought about it more deeply, I could see that there are many aspects of my life and my work that aren’t “on purpose” at all. This realization... Read More.....

How To Do Less And Accomplish More

Stacey Curnow,

April 5, 2013

So many of my clients come to me because they are working all the time and they are exhausted. Every day feels like a little death. Happiness and success are obviously not based on how hard you work. But what’s the alternative? Luckily there is scientific proof that you can actually do much less and accomplish more – and most importantly, accomplish more of the things that will genuinely contribute to your happiness and success. The proof is in the Pareto principle. This principle states that... Read More.....

Stop Putting So Much Pressure On Yourself... Start Pouring On The Self Compassion

Christine Arylo,

April 4, 2013

Why do we put so much pressure on ourselves? Have you ever stopped to look at just how much undue pressure you put on yourself, everyday. To get things done by some self-created deadline, to get a super human amount of things done in a day or month or year, to achieve things faster than a silver bullet? Uh, and given all the stressors and pressures that are out of your control, isn't it kind of crazy that you would ADD unnecessary pressure to your own life? I decided this week that I was...

Compassion Quiets The Mind, Improves The Body, Embraces The World

Guest Author,

April 2, 2013

For most it probably seemed like a pretty insignificant coincidence (if anyone even noticed). For me it was proof positive of the remarkable influence for good included in human consciousness. I was sitting in a breakout session a couple weeks ago with about 50 or 60 others at the “Practicing Mindfulness & Compassion” conference hosted by the U.C. Berkeley-based Greater Good Science Center (GGSC). Immediately adjacent to us were three or four other breakout sessions, with only the... Read More.....
