Depression is so prevalent in our society with many being on anti-depressants only to find that after a while they don’t seem to help. I am not a big proponent of medications … especially as the first line of defense. There are other steps I would take before I ventured down that path. The first path would be looking at…
“Listen – what you are talking about are memories — just memories. You have to put them in a shoebox and retire them. One thing I’ve learned is that everyday is a new thing; a chance to start again. Give life a chance. Grab a hold of it now.” From the Walton’s Show I am such a lover of the…
Using Music for healing goes back thousands of years; back to the days of King Saul and David. King Saul was the first King of Israel because the people wanted a “human” leader. They didn’t just want to have God as their leader. So God gave them King Saul. David, a man after God’s heart, was his Armor Bearer and…
This past weekend, I decided to dive into my own personal photos to do some organizing. I was recently given a number of boxes of photos from my parents. I actually thought I had all their photos but realized what I had were just the heritage photos and not the ones of our family growing up. So I decided to…
One of the things I learned to do early on in my wellness journey was to cook from scratch. Now mind you I did not grow up where we necessarily did that. My mom worked and my Polish Grandmother did the cooking. Except for a few dishes she was not a good cook. She could make her Pierogi or Polish…
It’s really almost here … the First Day of School. Today is August 20th and many schools have started already. Are you ready? Or are you starting to feel overwhelmed by the routines, scheduled activities and the abundant of papers that will come into your home? Of course our children (and even parents) think all that paperwork is critically important…
“This doesn’t bother me. I’m ok with it.” “I’m doing this organizing project for my husband/wife.” “I’m able to find what I need.” “I know where everything is.” Are these words or statements you have said in the past … or are currently saying? These are statements I hear many times from new clients. But today I want to…
With the weather being warmer and summer right around the corner, it is a good time to take care of some maintenance items for your home. One of the issues I find with clients who have a major clutter problem is not having the understanding that chores are part of their lives. We cannot live in our home (be it…
This is probably one of the most controversial issues in the Christian community. “Is it God’s will to heal me?” I firmly believe it is. But if you don’t “firmly” believe that it is, it will be harder (not impossible) but harder for you to walk in your healing and your divine health when you waver in this belief. But,…
Recently, I’ve been doing some major reflection on issues in my life. There have been days when I feel like I’m on overload and my brain can’t take much more. Being a business owner and a single mom whose sole income supports the household has at times put me in “driven mode.” You know what that means. You keep going…
