When A Crisis Strikes…Forgiveness is the Key to Moving Forward in Your Life
Forgiveness is by far one of the most important lessons I’ve learned in my life, especially during the hardest times. Forgiveness frees your heart which in turn can free your mind. The thing that many people have a difficult time believing is that you forgive someone not for them, but for YOU! When you hold on to resentment, anger, hurt, and disappointment, it’s like you are taking a poison and expecting the other person to die. It only hurts yourself. By practicing forgiveness, you release heavy emotions, which really do hold you back, and you are able to move forward.

When A Crisis Strikes…Hope Is The Door Out of The Darkness
Hope is probably the most important factor to dealing with any difficult time. Hope is what drives us forward and gives us the energy to endure and prevail over any circumstances. When someone has lost hope, it makes a person’s life so much harder, suffering even more. Hope is the light at the end of the tunnel, the door opening to let the sunshine in. It gives us the reason to go on and to know we will get through whatever is happening now.

When A Crisis Strikes…Having a Sense of Security through Routines and Rituals
Have you ever noticed that you normally follow the same sequence of actions in the morning as you get ready for your day? You get up, get dressed, eat breakfast, brush your teeth, etc. in the same order almost every day. Why is that? This is because having routines gives you a sense of security. Routines will give your life some structure and a feeling that you are in control of something (even if in reality we have no control over anything—just our thoughts).

Life is a Miracle!
The world is an amazing place! I am in awe of all the miracles every day. One of my favorite quotes is from Albert Einstein: There are two ways to live: you can live as if nothing is a miracle; you can live as if everything is a miracle. It’s interesting that a genius with such a scientific mind would be talking about miracles…but what is life really?

Holiday Giving at its Best
As the holidays are rapidly approaching, we tend to get wrapped up in the busy-ness of the times, rushing around with all the activities, meetings, parties, shopping, and cooking. Rather than the materialistic perspective, we should be taking some time to take stock of our lives, to feel the gratitude for all the blessings we have in our lives. No matter what your circumstances are, there are always things you can be grateful for in your life. Appreciation is a way of giving thanks to our higher Source.

When A Crisis Strikes…What You Can Do To Survive and Thrive
Acceptance is the Key to Freedom God grant me the serenity tornaccept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference. The Serenity prayer from Alcoholics Anonymous has always been one of my favorites. Being able to accept a situation helps to reduce the suffering you may experience. But it is certainly easier said than done! Acceptance doesn’t mean not taking action and working towards your goal—it means understanding that all hardships have lessons for us to learn.

The Power of Joy
Joy is love and happiness put together. But what can joy do for you? It can truly transform your life! We are facing times now that doing things we simply do not like is not going to be sustainable. I think that is a big reason as to why so many people are facing big career challenges with being laid off and the unemployment rates going so high.
