As a gift for you from me I decided to share with you powerful basic guided principles and life lessons I live by. Some I do everyday, Some I still have hard time doing but remind myself daily to improve. I hope you will find value in it.

Retreat: From a Sedentary to Active Lifestyle in 1 Month Balance In Me retreat
We all know the importance of living an active lifestyle but how many of us really put time and effort everyday to create a balanced life. I have shared many things with you here on my blog and one of them that is crucial to my development, is HEALTH.

5 Ways To Be A Conscious Parent
Do you know that we are at a crucial point in the history of our planet?
I have seen more and more people connect with their authentic selves than ever before. I have literally come across people that are becoming more aware of the need for a spiritual way of living.
It is even more important if you are a parent to work on yourself and reach place of higher essence and become more ‘conscious’ of how you live. As parents we have an important role in shaping the thoughts, behavior, and attitude of our children. It starts with US.

Connecting With Your Authentic Self
How do you fix something if it’s broken?
For example, if you’re fixing your home you want to know if there are holes in the wall, if the roof is falling apart, if there are rats in the basement.
Just as you would know if something is broken or NOT broken in your home.
How would you know if your life right now at this very moment is giving you a sense of fulfillment or not?
My good friend Jeremy Noel Johnson asked me to do a collaboration project in both our blogs, a video segment on the specific things we are doing in our lives that makes us the most happy and gives us the most fulfillment.
“A Whole New Mind: Why Right Brainers will rule the future.” By Daniel H. Pink (Book Review)
“Lawyers. Accountants. Computer programmers. That’s what our parents encouraged us to become when we grew up. But Mom and Dad were wrong. The future belongs to a very different kind of person with a very different kind of mind. The era of “left brain” dominance, and the Information Age that it engendered, are giving way to a new world in which “right brain” qualities-inventiveness, empathy, meaning-predominate. That’s the argument at the center of this provocative and original book, which uses the two sides of our brains as a metaphor for understanding the contours of our times.”
The left brain analyzes, the right brain intuits; the left brain thinks, the right brain feels; the left brain is logical, the right brain is emotional.
I have always been more right brain so when I saw this book shelf in success magazine I was immediately drawn to it and knew I had to read it right away. No excuses! Thank God to my sister Mariz Brown who purchased it before I did. I borrowed her copy. For that I thank You Mariz I owe you; this entire blogpost is dedicated to you.
Once in a while you will run into a book that will literally change your mindset and this book is no exception. I truly enjoyed how well-research this book was and how thorough it was backed up my studies and given solution.
Dan important and powerful work and thesis provides us with a clear insight that we are shifting again into a new age- a new age of commerce, living, and learning.
Let’s take a look at the new era were heading to as the era of ‘high concept, high touch’. Hence, called THE CONCEPTUAL AGE.
Accessing Your Inner Happiness & Dispelling The 2 *Biggest* Myths
I heard this recently “success is a moving target.” Ultimately, the primary ingredient that will matter the most in the end, are the quality relationships you have with the people you love. So I would suggest defining what success means to you when accessing your true inner happiness. I think it is always the feelings we have about ourselves that matter.
Communication Breakdown- Is your FILTER Clogged?
We’re human; “Spiritual beings having a Human experience” but human none the less. And, as humans it’s natural that our experiences affect the way the act and think. The things that happen in our childhood at home and at school all change the way we perceive things.
How did your parents speak to one another? How were you treated in school? What is your cultural background? Have you ever been in a bad car accident? Did you lose a parent as a child? Maybe you’re parent who has lost a child.
No matter what has happened to you these experiences shaped the way you perceive things and the way you communicate today. In a sense you have a “Filter” through which you see the world. The question is are you aware of this? What affect do you think it has on how you talk to others or how you “HEAR” others when they talk to you?
So often people argue and fight because they are so dedicated to “their” truth, not THE truth but their truth, what they perceive as the only reality. In their heads they know they’re right and can’t understand how anyone would disagree. Because of this (peoples lack of appreciation for one another’s filter) people tend to take arguments more personal, marriages fail, friends stop talking to one another and even wars are waged!
