    Doorway of Life

    Today you probably walked through many doors…whether it was on the way to take a shower, leaving the house, stepping into your vehicle, or entering your place of work or school (or more). For a moment, imagine a door…or an entrance way. You have one below if you need your creativity jogged today. Now, from your imagination, journal or ponder these questions: 1. Describe the door or entry way from your imagination. What materials make up your door? i.e. wood, glass, steel, etc
    Blueprint for Resilience

    Blueprint for Resilience

    Humans, as well as animals, are born with a blueprint for resilience. We are born with a predisposition to survive in order to keep the species thriving. Part of the program is to enable an organism to fight, flee or freeze, depending on the type and frequency of challenges and threats in its life. During the formative years, we become skilled at responding to certain types of threats. When humans and animals are repeatedly exposed to the same kinds of threats, their survival

From bench sleeping street performer to fire-e

    Bravery Is In the Eye of the Beholder

    This morning I was felt inspired. I read a blog post by the wise young soul Hannah Brencher who wrote about the anatomy of brave. You don’t actually get to stand beside someone and tell them whether or not they’ve reached a level of bravery. You don’t actually get to determine what does or does not make a person brave, or lovely, or worthy, or good. That’s not your right. That’s not your calling.Here is the truth about bravery. Here is her essence– she can’t defined by a meas
    Team Building Isn’t For Everyone

    Team Building Isn’t For Everyone

    Team building … It’s not for everyone Team building experiences are savored by some; dreaded by others. Attempting a challenge, big or small, can be exhilarating, satisfying and scary, all at once. This spread of reactions is what keeps it interesting, each group unique.
