From Silence Springs Strength
I was walking up Madison Avenue last week when I came upon this quote outside a church. As I stood digesting the words, I realized for a brief moment I was standing in silence. I took the photo and came home.
Just Be You!
Happy Tuesday! Just be you - the world will adjust! I recently received this watercolor from my mother who did not realize how much I've come to love flamingos during the past year! Flamingos have a famous habit standing on one leg, It's believed they can save more energy standing on one leg versus two. [...]
It’s a new dawn. It’s a new day.
What a difference a week makes! Warmer temperatures in the northeast, vaccine eligibility dropped to age 50 in New York and a feeling of hope in the air! (photo taken in Maine by my friend Jon Rich) With longer days and light at the end of this pandemic tunnel, it's a wonderful time to elevate [...]
I Took a Selfie Today.
I took a selfie today on one one of my favorite corners in NYC, the northwest corner of 35th and Lexington.

The Empire State Building: Since its construction, the Empire State Building has symbolized the technological [...]

Hello 2012…
For the first time in many years, I quietly let the New Year roll in. My usual routine is a host of rituals on New Year's Eve: incense, painting, writing and smashing an egg symbolic of the things I want to let go of in 2012. But I did nothing this year and I was [...]
Kirstie Alley Rocked the Dance Floor!
My favorite show of all time - Dancing With the Stars - literally has me jumping off the couch, dancing, cheering and screaming with delight! I couldn't wait to see Kirstie dance - the heels, the form fitting clothes and Maks by her side. A woman who most likely has stuggled her entire life with [...]
Breathe in the celebration…
Too often we are focused on what is not working on our lives instead of celebrating what is working. The art of saying "great job" or "I did really well" to oneself may be a bit foreign to you, but a skill I highly recommend and invite you to flourish in. Each time you self [...]
Signs of Spring
The daffodils and crocus were freezing this morning as temperatures dropped below 32 degrees. But at 12:45am, the true sign of spring rumbled through the midtown tunnel. Truly a New York "must see," the elephants from the Ringling Brother's circus made their ceremonial trip through the midtown tunnel and across 34th Street to Madison Square Garden. Friends, [...]
Change?! It’s a tough one for many…
We are smack in the throws of a great deal of change right now - as a country and as a world. But how resilient are you? Does change "knock you over" or "fire you up?" The key to success is to create resiliency. I decided to try this hair cut and color experiment to [...]
