Happy Labor Day!!! Its the last holiday of the Summer.  Take this day to work on you....rest, reflect and rejuvenate. Appreciate yourself after all your hard work. Treat yourself to something special, you've earned it!

Picnic at the lake is my special thing to do when I want to relax and reflect. What are you going to to do?

My clients are rockstars! Check out why!

I want to take this time to wish all the mothers a Happy Mother's Day. Enjoy your special day. You more than deserve it. Additionally, in this blog you will also get information on what to do with your photos after a branding shoot with me. I focus on one of my clients, Kelly Jorae of Sacred Waters Wellness Arts Studio and show what she has done with her photos. Hopefully it is an inspiration to you. Check it out!

Don't let the hustle and bustle of Christmas steal your joy. Christmas time can easily become stressful. The joyous days can turn into panic as we try to get everything done in time. Memories of lost love ones or strained relationships comes to mind. Searching for the perfect gift becomes a dreaded trip to stores filled with impatient people.  Especially since we are still in the middle of a pandemic, and the cost of everything from fuel to bread has risen. While you are looking out for others, don't forget to look out for yourself.  I know it is easily said than done, but if the busy Christmas period is starting to get the best of you, it can be slightly comforting to know that many others are in the same boat.

Regardless of the time of year, by taking regular “micro recoveries” of meaningful downtime throughout the day can ease the tension. This could be as simple as sitting outside for five minutes without peeking at your phone, or just sitting in your living room listening to soothing music while sipping on your favorite beverage. These little practices can often boost energy and ease tension. 

Simplicity is always best- Christmas is not about the amount of gifts we get. It is about the blessings of our family, love ones and the quality time we spend with them. Paring it back to what’s important, and approaching things with an intentional sense of gratitude can help to reconnect with the deeper meaning of Christmas. So, keep joy in your heart and stay MERRY.
