Yesterday I babysat my 9 month old niece.  Nothing like having a baby for the day to remind you of what’s really important.  A baby reminds you to be in the moment, every moment.

This month I am owning my power.  I am choosing to support people who use their power for good.  I listen to my inner wisdom and take powerful action.  It is powerful action because I make it so.

Each gentle, small step is the beginning of something larger.

Recently, I was out to dinner with my family and I watched a very pretty, young, thin waitress giving my husband the ole twinkly eye and I felt my self-esteem plummet.

In that moment I hung my head and stared at the menu thinking, “I just don’t have it like I used to.”

Sometimes people tell me that they feel peaceful in my presence.  This got me thinking about how I come to this ‘peaceful’ place within myself.

How do you personally cultivate the peace within?
