A compassionate, mindful way of life.
Hello, my friends! Happy summer and happy JULY! My apologies for skipping May’s roundup, but I just wasn’t in the right headspace to sit and write.

Hello, my friends! How’s everyone doing? We survived a hot month and another 31 days of this pandemic. I almost didn’t write this month’s post for two reasons: (1) my time management skills have not improved 😉 and (2) it’s just been emotionally rough for me these days.

Happy Summer and happy July, my friends! How are you? How are you holding up? I don’t know about you, but June felt both long and short. It flew by in some ways and stood still in others. Maybe it’s because of the lack of normalcy and heavier emotions, but I’m ready to start a…
