Change is Coming

I'm laying on my blue couch cushions, wrapped in a long fuzzy blanket. Not that I really need it because it's a sunny 70 degrees outside here in Denver. But there's a cool cross breeze going through the open windows in our house and as anyone who knows my family knows, Scheibelhuts gets cold.

As I'm bundled up here, I'm thinking back to all this past year has brought.

I got my yoga teaching certification.
Started teaching yoga a mere 3 weeks after that.
Began my sober lifestyle.
I moved into a new house and got engaged.
I "graduated" from therapy.
Celebrated one year of this blog.
I participated in several board meetings for Connect to Protect Kids, developing a program for CSA awareness and protection.
And, I took my memoir word count from 2,000 words to 47,069.

I'm proud of myself.

I no longer write the same words in my journal during New Years. That I feel empty and alone, confused at why I feel those things with such a wealth of goodness in my life.

And through this year, I've changed, my passions and ideas for how to help people evolving.

There will be a change coming soon to this blog.

A new way I want to bring peace and connection to people's lives.

Which I'll announce next week.

I hope you'll stay for the journey.

I've changed a lot in this last year and a half. It's only natural that as I evolve, so do my offerings to you. My blog...

When there seems like little hope

Sometimes the world is a bad place. There's real heart sorrowing tragedy. Natural disasters. Life ending sicknesses. War. Shootings. Trauma. When I read the news or hear people discuss current events, it can feel scary. Like there's a real loss of safety. But I have a quick exercise for you. Right now, look around the room that you're in and notice everything that is brown. Take inventory of what each object or surface is. Go ahead take a minute and look. When you're done, read this next...
