Today I talked about not feeling confident that my life purpose is on track which had made me feel uncertain about myself today.  But understanding that the road we follow in our lives does not always follow a straight line allows me to much more readily accept my life course. Because the times when things don’t seem to go our way can easily convince us that we aren’t doing anything positive in our lives. But in actuality, it's these times that will be our best teachers today.

In so many ways, our world is more connected now than ever before. We can connect on the Internet, through our phones, and travel to any place we’d like to go. Since we’ve expanded our digital connections, we’ve also lost a sense of connection in many ways too. Many of us end up living alone or in communities where we don’t even know or speak to our neighbors. Life is so busy that we often forget the simple acts of talking to one another, meeting strangers, and building community where we are.

Did you know that spending hours on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok could increase feelings of anxiety, inadequacy and fear of missing out. But done right, there may be advantages to the connectivity we have with social media.

Do your finances stress you out? Because that simmering worry can weigh any of us down and tax our health more than we might realize. If so I want to share with you a few simple strategies that we can all use starting right now, today, to receive a little more peace of mind. 

While there isn't any scientific explanation for why deep breathing works as a way to combat stress and anxiety it can be one of the fastest way to calm down and keep those anxious moments at bay.

While anxiety can have detrimental effects it may not be entirely negative. Anxiety also creates healthy stress that can motivate people to fulfill tasks, accomplish goals and achieve their best results. 

The first step is to understand what anxiety, stress, and worry are and the ways it can impact our minds and bodies. Then we can understand some of the best strategies to manage it.

Are you feeling worried, nervous, or on edge and don’t know what to do? For some, anxiety might seem to happen suddenly. They may feel calm one minute, and then seemingly out of nowhere have a strange unexplained wave of nervousness come over them. Maybe they can pinpoint exactly when their feelings of anxiousness and nervousness will start, like when they have a big presentation coming up or an interview for a new job. Or perhaps the symptoms are so generalized and vague that it’s difficult to tell if what they’re experiencing is anxiety or something else. No matter how we experience it, anxiety can be uncomfortable and present challenges in many areas of our lives.

By now you've started to feel and possibly look a little different. Maybe you have more energy or less bloat. Maybe that tight yoga tank is fitting a bit better or your friends are saying that you skin glows. acknowledging our success is a surefire way to stay he course because it's proof that we are able to make healthy changes and continue to do so. This week is all about celebrating how far you've come without reverting back to old habits. 

If you've been testing yourself in the kitchen lately give yourself a break. Take a couple of days off and enjoy time with friends either throwing a potluck or going out to eat. You'll find new found energy for creating in the kitchen when you return.

Going grocery shopping can feel like a big, annoying chore, OR it can be a highlight of your week. Finding the grocery stores, farm stands, and little ethnic food shops that help you connect to your food will not only make the shopping experience more fun, but will also inspire you to make smarter choices. 

Are you roasting the same vegetables or topping your salad with shredded carrots again? Why not choose one fruit or veggie you never incorporate into your meals and prepare it. Don't just let that kumquat stare you down friends! If your not sure what to do with it, ask your local grocer or farmer how they prepare it.
