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...

The True Power Of No

By Midge Greentree

I'll always remember my first, real, big no in the work world. A new supervisor, who wanted to look good on paper, who wanted to impress, I guess, began suggesting that I conduct my business in unethical ways. Soon, the suggestions became recommendations. And then came the closed-door directive. I didn't actually say no – I didn't actually say anything. I was actually quite dumbfounded and completely dumbstruck. I just remember leaving that room and meaning no, knowing it. Still, I called Pops for some advice, because I was twenty-something and new at this career thing, and Pops had seen and done it all, I was sure. Sure enough,...

We Are Not The Names They Called Us: How To Get Your Glow Back

Monica Wilcox,

Do we come of age in a singular moment or is it a gathering progression? I’m not talking about the ceremonious physical coming of age that entitles one to a plastic coated card. I’m referring to the life rendering psychological event; that moment your candy coated, rainbow sparkled life gets blown up by a bazooka named Hard Reality. We climb to the glorious peak of our youth only to be pushed over the cliff; plummeting at shocking speed into the pits of adulthood. I wonder if it’s... Read More.....

Where Defensive Driving Meets The School Of Life

Sarah Haykel,

I got a speeding ticket. No, it's not the first time. I often leave the house just a minute or two late, and by the time I get to the car it's about three or four. Ugh. Then I go into rush mode. This particular day it was a Sunday. A Sunday nonetheless. I was headed to a volunteer photo shoot and the photographer was on a time frame. I planned to leave the house with plenty of time, but there I was rushing again. OMG, I am going to be "late" and now I will mess him up. (Expletives... Read More.....

Free Yourself From Emotional Debt: Moving Beyond Pain From The Past

Ashley Ryan,

March 29, 2013

“He who is brave is free.” ~Seneca We all know what debt is. Some of us, most of us, still have a few we’re paying off. Student loans, car payments, mortgages. But what about the unseen debts, debts that are invisible to the naked eye but instead live within our hearts? There are many invisible debts we pay—debts that are alive within us from the past: The father who walked out when we were little, whose approval we’re still seeking. The mother who was over critical, so we overwork... Read More.....

How To Deal With Yourself When 'Screwing Up' On Your Spiritual Journey

Michael Mackintosh,

March 28, 2013

On our spiritual adventure, we will all have moments where we do exactly the opposite of what we said we ‘should’ do. Maybe it’s eating a certain food you’ve promised you’d give up. Maybe you got angry again. Maybe it's something sexual you’re embarrassed about. Maybe you promised yourself to speak up and instead kept quiet about something important to you – only to beat yourself up about it later. Maybe for hours. Or maybe you’re just not getting up early to meditate or even have a... Read More.....
