May 13, 2010 Angie 0 Comments

Enough already with the battle cries and the dragon slaying and the minotaur gutting. Time to have a little fun and play  around with what’s really important. Today, that happens to be the warm cozy campfire, which is the result of Danielle LaPorte’s hot new package of technological genius she calls The Fire Starter Sessions. …

My Guys in Action

May 4, 2010 Angie 4 Comments

As you may have figured out from other posts, the male species is a bit sparse around our place. So in addition to the claim I’ve staked in Hunky Farmer Boy, there’s a wee bit of a claim staked in another middle-aged male. I should probably introduce him to you. Actually, you met him a …

Brains and Golf and Cops–Incredible Opportunities

April 16, 2010 Angie 0 Comments

In making the decision to move away from the (in)security of employment and a set paycheck, I asked myself exactly what I think I can do to earn a living and continue to pay for the things I desire (or desired and acquired without payment in advance. That would be known as debt, and it …

The Strong Life Test: Teacher-Motivator

April 8, 2010 Angie 2 Comments

Yesterday Danielle LaPorte’s new digital book experience, The Firestarter Sessions became available for pre-release purchasing. Since I’m more or less a “spend every penny you’ve got” sorta gal, and since I had just made a small, yet adequate deposit into the massage business bank account, AND since I could justify/rationalize it as a business expense, …

The Prayer is the Feeling, Not the Words

April 3, 2010 Angie 2 Comments

When I was a kid, say about ages 6 through….oh….37, I had a relationship with prayer that was….uhm…..less than spiritual. Actually, me and a girlfriend would usually sit together during church and (forgive me Father for I knew not what I do-ed) <embarrassment ensues> time them….with a watch….with a second hand, which wasn’t necessary because …

Who Decides Right and Wrong?

March 26, 2010 Angie 0 Comments

Sometimes it becomes necessary to analyze core beliefs as part of a pathway to wellness. Spiritual beliefs can have either positive or negative effects on our health. Therefore, this blog occasionally addresses spiritual beliefs. A couple of days ago, I posted a comment on Facebook that triggered the question who decides what is right and …

Bookstores, Health Food Stores, & Greenhouses

March 24, 2010 Angie 0 Comments

Everyone has at least one. I happen to have three of which I am aware. It’s my power place. Okay, in my case, PLACES. It’s that place you can go where the world seems perfect, no harm can come, and time is irrelevant. It is a place that has a Zen-like serenity that nourishes your …

Black and White and Absolutely ALL OVER

March 4, 2010 Angie 0 Comments

Most of my life things have been pretty much black or white, right or wrong, either/or. To some extent, this is still the case with me. I’m a pretty black and white sort of person. Right is right and wrong is wrong. My version of right, or at least the one I had learned somewhere …

The Spirituality of Wellness

February 10, 2010 Angie 0 Comments

It’s been a few weeks since I last blogged. The reason certainly isn’t because I don’t have anything to say. The reason seems to be more a case of not knowing exactly how to make my thoughts align with the overall purpose of my website and my business, which is wellness. I have had many …

Vision 2010: Intentions for a New Year

December 27, 2009 Angie 4 Comments

I recently saw a post that suggested the use of intentions for the new year rather than resolutions or goals for the new year. I like that. I tend to believe intentions are a very powerful force. They are not some lofty pie in the sky wish list, but rather something truly…well…intended. Danielle LaPorte’s blog …
