The Path to Joy

Practice, practice, practice!

My grandfather used to like that old joke where a man on the street asks someone 'how do you get to Carnegie Hall?' And the reply is 'practice.'
 
Practice is the only way I know of to change how you think. 
 
In today's episode, I had to really practice the question: what if it all worked out for me?

Oh, I Could Get Used to This!

Today's episode reflects on my first few days in Costa Rica -- the quiet, my friends, is just amazing. Between the quiet, the slow pace, and the humidity forcing me into sloth-mode, I could definitely get used to this!

Letting the Emotion Pass Through You!

Despite 'vacation,' today, I am just mad. As my favorite children's book character, Fancy Nancy, would say: 'Furious. This is a more sophisticated word than angry or mad.'
 
And I'm going to accept it and just let it flow through me. Because sometimes we are just plain mad!

We are on the precipice of a big trip and I'm ready! There's this moment -- when you've done all the work and everything is packed and ready -- but right before the trip truly begins. Oh, it's a good moment!

A Sea of Beliefs!

Today, I share some musings about beliefs and how to shift the nature of your thoughts: what if we can't fully eradicate old, negative beliefs but we can make them a small percentage of the overall 'sea' of beliefs??

It's a Sure Thing!

Today’s episode is about a feeling -- a sure feeling. Like you know something is eventually going to happen. I have to say, it’s a pretty great feeling!

Happy Birthday, Paul Bloom!!

I was recently celebrating my uncle's 75th birthday (it would have been my dad's 75th too:) So, today, I share some stories about 'the twins' (my uncle and my dad). And reflect on the curious nature of grief -- it's never really what you might expect. 
 
I know this episode sounds a bit depressing but I promise it's not. I loved writing these stories down and I think you'll enjoy them!

Leaning Into Summer!

Summer, at least for me, is filled with lots of travel and fun -- but also a complete lack of structure and routine. This summer, rather than fight the 'free for all,' I am working on leaning into it!

Driving Around in my Minivan!

Don't worry -- today's episode isn't really about my minivan -- I just had Chuck Berry's 'Driving Around in my Automobile' stuck in my head! This episode is really about some college touring I did recently (not for me, although I'd love to go back) and how magnetic the energy of 'the world is at my fingertips' truly is!

The 'Stream' of Consciousness!

This is the second episode inspired by the new movie ’Inside Out 2!’ I was so tickled by the brilliant concept of an actual ’stream’ of consciousness that I decided to embark on my own stream of consciousness experiment. So this is it friends! Today, I share with you one hour of my own random, ping-pong-ball-like thoughts!
