One of my foremost goals in wellness coaching is to empower people to take responsibility for their own health and happiness.

I very much love my iPad. I’ve already downloaded several books—this may become a problem because I love books, and it’s way too easy to just click them into the palm of my hand. They are cheaper to download than buy though! The case for the iPad can stand up on its own, so when …

I woke up yesterday morning feeling deprived and restricted, which was totally irrational because I hadn’t even started PIP yet…and PIP is not all that restrictive.

There is a great park near us where you can rent skis (and they have a tow rope). It’s $8 to ski (plus rentals if you need them), and a really awesome place to learn. I’m so glad Joe was into it–he was an extremely patient and helpful teacher. And I just skied around them …

Random things for today. 1. I have been getting a lot of emails from my workshop participants who want an electronic copy of the smoothie recipes. So I posted the smoothie workshop recipes in a new page tab (see above). There are also a bunch of other ones if you click on smoothies/juices in the …

I slaved in the kitchen yesterday…and I can tell you that it won’t be happening again anytime soon! There are two reasons: 1. Joe got home and was ill, and I had eaten way too many kale chips out of the dehydrator all day…so we both took two bites of dinner and stopped (even though …
