Awestruck

  Last week, Cindy Fabico (co-owner of Life Skills Resource Group), referred me to a Psychology Today article titled, “It’s Not All About You!” by Carlin Flora. Cindy suggested that I read it because she was so impressed and enlightened by its message, that she felt compelled to share it with others. I have to admit, […]

April: Counseling Awareness Month

Since April is National Counseling Awareness month, I thought it would be nice to dedicate one of our blogs to all of the work that counselor’s do for individuals, and the community as a whole. According to the NCDA (2011) a counselor/ client relationship is one that provides, “a professional relationship that empowers diverse individuals, […]

Friendship

What is friendship? According to a basic google search, it is a noun meaning, “the emotions or conduct of friends; the state of being friends”. Some synonyms for “friendship” are: close relationship, mutual attachment, bond, tie, link, and union.  Although this definitely would be considered a definition of friendship- to me it seems a little […]

Accepting Your Authentic Self

Something that I often find myself doing is searching a plethora of different mediums for inspirational quotes. But, often times, the one’s I find to have the most impact on me are the one’s I stumble upon without even trying. It can be a lyric from a song I’m really listening to for the first time, a […]

Living in the Moment

“You can’t control everything. Sometimes you just need to relax and have faith that things will work out. Let go a little and just let life happen.”  — Kody Keplinger   What powerful words these are… if there’s one thing I can relate to about the significance of this post, it’s how hard it is […]

“An Eye For an Eye”

Mahatma Ghandi. Even if you don’t really KNOW much about him, it’s inevitable that you’re at least familiar with one of his famous quotes. Perhaps you are familiar with, “As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world – that is the myth of the atomic age – […]

Feel, Process, Heal

Since we have now officially entered the month of March, and with St. Patrick’s Day around the corner, I felt it would be appropriate to touch on the subject of luck. Admittedly, I used to say that it’s not even as if I don’t have “good luck”, but that I actually just have no luck, […]

Random Acts of Kindness

Ironically enough, as  I was sitting at my desk last Friday, reading an article on Tiny Buddha posted by Caroline Harper titled “You Don’t Need to Do Big Things to Change the World” … I heard a knock at the office door. When I opened it, there was a woman standing there who looked like […]

Compassion and Resilience: The Story of a Lost Dog

The past few weeks we have talked quite a bit about self-love and self- compassion. This week, I would really like to touch on the other end of the spectrum… compassion and love for others. (If you missed our blogs on self-love and compassion, feel free to check those out first!: Increasing Self-Love, Being Single […]

The Importance of Self-Love

A few weeks ago Sabina posted an informative blog about self-love versus self-hatred, and the different ways you can incorporate self-love into your life. I felt that this topic was so important (especially with Valentine’s Day right around the corner) that now would be a perfect time to talk more about what self-love is, and […]
