Summer dresses are a constant staple in my wardrobe during these warm months. They are an easy go-to, but sometimes I just want to make them a little edgier.
Summer Dresses: How would you style yours?
The Soothing Benefits of Chamomile
Life has been a little bit stressful lately. Stressful in a good way though – a lot going on, both in and outside of work. I have a tendency when I get stressed to grind my teeth while I sleep. It’s something I’ve tried various treatments for (including mouth guards) but I was looking into alternative options recently and that’s when I discovered that chamomile is so much more than just a flavor of tea… Read More

Beauty: Do you know how many benefits Lavender has?
The benefits of lavender have been at the forefront of my mind lately… maybe it has something do with our home office being surrounded by the beautiful buds. It’s one of my favorite scents — my mind is soothed and I feel like I’m up in clouds every time it touches my senses.

Monday Quote
“Each of us has the power and responsibility to heal ourselves, to be our own medicine man or woman. Awakening our innate powers of being, loving, knowing, seeing, and healing involves ongoing work at all levels and in all dimensions of our self.

– Gabrielle Roth from Maps to Ecstasy: A Healing Journey for the Untamed Spirit
Yoga Essentials: What to Pack for Your First Yoga Class
Yoga essentials for beginners: When I first went to yoga I wasn’t really familiar with what to wear or with what essential items I would need for my first class.
Yoga Mat Bag DIY
Yoga mat bags are a necessity if you are someone who walks or commutes to yoga class. The mats can be slightly awkward to carry on their own and never fit properly in regular shoulder bags.
