I have always said that a life goal would be to own a wellness center for people to come and heal their minds, bodies and spirits. A place where they feel safe, accepted and appreciated. Where they are free to just be or transform themselves and their lives in the ways that nourish them.

Being happy is a daily life goal and it shouldn’t be a challenge to do what I need to do in order to make happiness a constant in my life.

When we honor our approach to time we are better equipped to allow other the space to honor their approach as well. This practice also provides a precious opportunity for something we are passionate about at The Swell, conscious communication!

I have made it a priority to spend time with those that are most precious to me and to be fully involved in whatever time we’re able to spend together. I’ve found that in doing so, inevitably all the goals that I aim to achieve, are. 

I know that I feel optimally well in mind, body and spirit when I move my body. The satisfying feeling from physical exertion and time spent in purposeful practice whether it be yoga, hiking or exercising never fails to rejuvenate and uplift me.

Understanding that we aren’t powerless to bear the things others say we can’t change is the critical first step. All change has come from some sort of discomfort, unease or dis-ease and a longing for something different, something more.

During this day’s meditation we are taught that we are able to turn our wounds into wisdom and we have the ability to take any situation and find an opportunity for change, healing, forgiveness, awareness, etc.

I find that when I’m able to maintain my vigilance in the quality of my thoughts and to where and whom I channel my energy I am better equipped to stand squarely in whatever it is I am doing and with whomever I am doing it.

It is said that when we are naturally tuned in we feel aware and alive. This present-moment consciousness can help to spark our creative tendencies and help us to sit more fully in our truths, passions and pursuits!

We are committing to creating healthful habits for ourselves now so that we can enjoy a more comfortable existence in our older years. Growing old is inevitable, but whether or not we are able to do so with as much ease, grace and peace in mind, body and spirit is definitely something we have full control over!
