Nurturing Body, Mind, Soul and Spirit
This is world is kind of crazy. I feel like we’ve progressed in many ways and regressed in many others. I look back on the whole George Floyd tragedy last year, and this era of cancel culture. With George Floyd, a great majority of people were appalled by what happened to Floyd, but there was […]
The hardest part of love is knowing when to give up on it. Not because you don’t love the person, but you’re not receiving any love in return. In some cases, love doesn’t end in a fairy tale. We fall in love, we get hurt. Some people leave the relationship. Others stay in hopes that […]
Growing up I would definitely say that I was a stoic person. I don’t think anyone could see my emotions because I spent a good amount of my life hiding it from other people. If I was sad, you wouldn’t know it. If I was ecstatic… you still wouldn’t know it. I had (sometimes still […]
The best part of Permission to Feel, the book by Marc Brackett, is that he really wants us to be comfortable with our emotions in a world that usually doesn’t allow us to be. We see emotions as a hinderance to our well being. I good question to ask in that assertion is why do […]

Borg in the early 90s. It’s a classic work because I definitely found it relevant in my spiritual life. The book starts […]
In some relationships, we don’t necessarily like how we are being treated. Then you do a Google search for quotes that say something like you treat others how you want to be treated. What does that really mean? Teaching someone how to treat you is a practice in setting boundaries. It’s letting someone know what […]
I’m very much an advocate of learning. Every process of life is a learning moment where we should take the time to learn its lesson. The biggest way we learn is by making mistakes. It’s really not until we fail that we realize how to put the pieces back together. The problem is that we […]
There are always going to be manipulative and narcissistic people out there. The point of this post is to make sure that you are not a victim. The only person you can blame is yourself because if you have no standards, then you have no self worth. It brings us to the situation of what […]
