There are good days and bad days. Days when you will feel on top of the world and days when you feel like blah. So with this said, where do you find inspiration when you feel like you have none? I think that when you look for that inspiration outside of yourself, you may find that you may be a bit disappointed because you look onto someone or something (and with this I’m referring to material stuff)  to give you what you think you will find outside of you. It is when you stop

It is normal to be disappointed when something didn’t go right or when something that you wanted didn’t go through. Disappointments are a part of life. However, in order to grow in well-being, it is important to be able to view the disappointments in another light. I truly believe in the power that our mind has on our mental, emotional and physical health. I believe that with our mind we have the capacity to cure ourselves if we wanted to. The mind also has the power of makin

Needs are needs and they are to be acknowledged and respected. We all have a need to be loved, to be needed, to feel connected and a part of something, etc and these are all natural needs. Nothing wrong with them, except when we allow our needs to take over and rule our way of thinking, feeling and behaving in ways that compromise our well-being. This is why I wrote for the title of this post “beware of your needs” because no matter what need it is, that need, if it’s not in

This is an extremely important topic because many times we overlook how we are feeding the emotions we are feeling. So, if you or anyone you know is constantly feeling the blues, feeling overwhelmed or feeling empty, this post will be of value for you. If you are constantly feeling any “negative” emotion, have you considered the fact that perhaps you are unknowingly feeding that “negative” emotion? The reason why I write the word negative in quotation marks is because I don’t

Hunger….is something that we try to suppress because let’s face it, hunger is uncomfortable. No, I’m not referring to physical hunger. I’m referring to the hunger that you have to improve your life and well-being. I constantly hear people saying that they want a better life but yet if you ask them “what are you doing to have the life you want?”, they say nothing. I have said over and over again, it’s not enough to just want, you have to be HUNGRY. So I would like to ask you n

I think and observe and I’ve come to the conclusion that so many things are filled with fillers. Normally when one hears or reads the word “fillers”, they may think of supplements since there are supplements filled with fillers but claim to just have vitamins and minerals. Well, it’s not just supplements that have fillers, I challenge you to think if you are filling your life up with fillers. What are these fillers that I am referring to? Well, fillers can be many things. It

I’ve been pondering and asking myself why for many great things there has to be a negative to it. I’m working out this morning and although I love to workout and I’m helping my health with that, my hair has to be a nice mess afterwards. It makes me feel as if I have to choose between my body or my hair. Same thing with other decisions that I have to make, there are positives and negatives to everything. It makes me wonder why this is and this is what today’s post will be abou

There are times in your life when you feel physically exhausted but not because you have worked too hard or because you haven’t slept well, but because perhaps you are going through some either inner conflict or you are going through a rough time in your life that is robbing your energy emotionally. I think this kind of exhaustion is one of the worst kinds because if you are not careful, you can slip down and maybe even fall into depression. When feeling this way, how can you

Some of you may know that my family and I are going through a difficult moment with my dad’s health. Today I spent the day with my mom and had to convince her, literally force her, not to go to the hospital to see my dad since seeing the state in which my dad is in is too hard for her. This was my suggestion since she is every single day by his side without taking care of herself the way she should which is not healthy for her. During the day it was tempting to speak about my

Hay diferentes maneras para ser dichoso y la definición de lo que significa esto será diferente para cada persona. Mientras estoy sentada en el balcón de mi nuevo hogar (esta es la razón por la cual no he escrito por casí un mes- créame que no me he olvidado de mis lectores leales), no puedo evitar el sentirme dichosa. Es importante que usted sepa cual es su definición de ser dichoso y que usted comience a vivir esa vida que usted quiere vivir. Recuerdo cómo el año pasado est

There are different ways to be lucky and the definition of what it means to be lucky will be different for everyone. As I am sitting on my balcony of my new home (this is why I have been MIA for almost a month- trust me, I never forgot my loyal readers), I can’t help but feel lucky. It’s important for you to know what this definition is for you so that you can start living that life that you want to live. I remember how last year I was thinking how lucky I would be if I could

Lo que voy a escribir tiene mucho significado para mí y espero que lo tenga para usted también, lo cual estoy segura que para muchos será así y esto es porque estoy segura que usted ha tenido un momento en donde usted se quiere rendir, usted deja de hacer algo que usted disfrutaba mucho o usted ha perdido la noción de algo porque tantas cosas están ocurriendo en su vida. Sé que para muchos es así y para mí también lo es pero no importa qué esté pasando o que tan ocupado usted

Soy una quien dice y escribe una y otra vez que las emociones son para respetarse, para atenderse y para entenderse porque las emociones no son nada más que información de nuestra alma la cual es nuestra verdadera esencia. Sin embargo, hay ciertas emociones que usted sólo puede tener en pequeñas dosis porque estas emociones pueden crear problemas en su bienestar en general y hoy me gustaría explicar el por qué es una necesidad el librarse de ciertas emociones. Comprendo total

Every year we all make new year resolutions. It’s very important to make new year resolutions because they motivate us to get going and to do what we must do to achieve our goals. However, there are certain goals that many of us have in mind to do and yet many seem to either “fail” or give up. I write “fail” in quotation marks because you don’t actually fail, you just learn. Many have the goal of losing weight, of achieving this or that but I would like to write this in today

Last week I wrote about how it all comes down to our choices but what is it that determines the choices that we make? Well, that’s what I would like to write about in today’s post. There are many factors that influence the choices that we make. Two big ones are our feelings and our mind frame at the time that we make our choices. We are emotional beings and as emotional beings, we are highly influenced by how we feel and that plays a big role in the decisions that we make. Wh

Refuse! This is a bold word to use but it is a word, a verb, a statement that I think is a must if you want to have great well-being in your life. How so is what I will be discussing in today’s post. It is just my belief that in today’s society we are being conditioned to think that life is just the way it is- we get sick, it’s just the way it is. We get divorced, it’s just the way it is. We are very tired, it’s just the way it is. Lack of money, it’s just the way it is. Life

La mayoría de nosotros tenemos una caja llena de herramientas que nosotros necesitamos cuando algo en la casa necesita arreglo. Hay cosas obvias que necesitamos como un destornillador, un martillo, algunos clavos, etc. y estos sólo son las cosas esenciales. Hay otras cosas que dependiendo de las necesidades de su casa usted tendrá otras cosas que no son tan importantes como los esenciales pero aún así las tiene. Aparte de esta caja de herramientas, usted necesita otra que es

Escribí en el blog el año pasado sobre que significa el ser una persona positiva y escribí que el ser positiva no quiere decir que usted siempre está feliz y que usted ignora todo lo que pasa. Lo que no mencioné es que una persona realmente positiva es aquel que hace espacio en su vida para todo, lo bueno y lo malo. El hacer espacio para todo es tan beneficioso para su bienestar en general y de esto es lo que se trata lo que voy a escribir hoy. Dependiendo de la clase de pers

I wrote a post last year about what does it mean to be a positive person and I wrote that being a positive person doesn’t mean that you are always happy and that you just ignore everything that is going on. What I didn’t mention is that truly positive people are the ones who make room in their life for everything, the good and the bad. Making room for everything is so beneficial for your overall well-being and this is what today’s post is about. Depending on the kind of perso

Pienso en cómo ha sido mi vida en desde más de un año ahora y no hay nada más que yo pueda decir o describir cómo ha sido mi vida mas que lleno de pruebas. Pruebas de valentía, pruebas de fé, pruebas de paciencia, pruebas de fuerza, pruebas de resistencia, hasta la vida le provee a usted con pruebas de los demás que ayuda a usted ver quien es quien en su vida. Todas estas pruebas son parte de hacer de usted en la persona que fue creado a ser- una persona con gran bienestar. A
