Is Your Life Balanced or Do You Need an Alignment?
June 25, 2008
Last Sunday, on Father’s Day, my husband, Ken and I went bicycling in Granville, Ohio. This is the home of Dennison University. It was a beautiful day and the bike paths were great. It was renewing to be out in nature ‘away from it all.’ I’m so glad that we took the time out of our busy life to schedule some time for fun. It was well worth it!
Is your life balanced or is it out of balance?
When is the last time you actually scheduled some fun or some leisure time?
Are you able to sit and do nothing or are you always busy doing something?
Do you feel burned out because you work too much?
In today’s world, most people (women especially) are so very busy. They are busy sending emails, answering emails, texting, blogging, returning phone calls, paying bills, parenting, shopping, doing laundry, cooking, cleaning…………sometimes, it can be challenging to balance it all. Does it feel like life is going so fast and that you are not getting to spend time on people or things that matter most?
Living in the Present – Life Coaching Tips
June 17, 2008
Have you ever had to be in silence for a long length of time?
Would you be comfortable or uncomfortable to be in silence? How long could you do it?
What are you NOT seeing every day because you are moving too fast?
I recently had the pleasure of attending a Leadership Retreat in northern California. On the first day, we were asked to be in silence for 24 hours. Yes, I did say 24 hours! If I had been asked to do this before, it really would’ve been a struggle for me. At this time in my life, I so welcomed it and enjoyed it. I lay in the field and watched the tall grass and flowers blow in the wind. It was like a beautiful dance of colors– purple, pink, gold and green. As I felt the warmth of the sun, I found myself dozing off a couple of times. It was so relaxing. It was a great relief from the fast pace and stress of everyday life. By slowing down, I was able to enjoy all of the beauty and peacefulness in the present.

Empowerment: to give power or authority to …
Giving power to who you are is one of the best and most freeing things you can do.
Do you have a memory (or not) of when you stood so strongly and confidently in who you are and what you had to say? Was it a time when you didn’t “worry” about what anybody thought or what their opinion was? It feels great, doesn’t it? Wouldn’t it BE great to BE this way all of the time?
Getting Fired Up About Your Life
June 8, 2008
Are you living a life filled with PASSION? I’m not talking about sex! I’m talking about having a life filled with things you love to do—things that bring you joy. Are you excited to get out of bed each day to live your life? If you answered YES, that’s great. If you answered NO, if not now, when would be the time to create the life you desire? Wouldn’t it be fantastic to be ‘fired up’ about your life?
If you are just going through the motions of every day living and the years are flying by, I challenge you to create a VISION of how you would like your life to be. What would your ideal day be like? Your ideal week? Your ideal year?
