Yesterday, I realized I had spent my week longing for the things that “would make things better for me” or “make me feel better” – less stressed, happier, content, get my energy back to where I wanted it to be. The stress of the week – the energy being expended out vs taken in –…

Bull By The Horns
The zodiac is always one of those things I can take or leave. Like anything, you can find yourself in it if you look hard enough. As I have been reminded for most of my life – I’m a Taurus born in the year of the Ox (per Chinese zodiac). Bull + Ox = uhm,…
