Ah, spring. The season of renewal, blooming flowers, and finally packing away that winter coat…

When it comes to slipping between the sheets, the last thing you’re probably thinking about is feng shui in your bedroom. Yet it’s the feng shui of your bedroom that could just make the difference between a so-so romantic experience and an overarching deity of oohs and aaahs.

Bedroom parity can solve the bedroom rarity of solid and satisfying sex for both partners. Yes it can. How can that be? Well, think about your bedroom as a symbol of your relationship. Is it broken down in the middle like the mattress and filled with laptops and tablets, similar to the way your work intrudes in on your love life?
“The most important relationship in your life is the relationship you have with yourself. Because no matter what happens… you will ALWAYS be with yourself.” – Dianne Von Furstenberg
For today’s V Day blog post, I am not taking about love of your spouse, or partner, or kids. I am talking about love and acceptance of… yourself.
I see it a lot in my coaching practice and in women around me. Women who occupy their time frenetically cooking for their kids, runnings for their partners, accomplishing in their jobs, doing, going, organizing chaos, loving and nurturing everyone around them. But at the core, I can see there is something missing. Something they are TRULY neglecting – themselves. And no amount of roses or surprise gifts from your partner on Valentine’s Day are going to rectify the issue.
Today’s Global Montreal Global News segment all came to be when Hilly got a bad MAN COLD two weeks ago. I had to stay healthy – because if mama goes down, well, we all go down! LOL! (Just kidding).
He was coughing and sneezing and tossing and turning and keeping me up (I was exhausted) but I was more worried to get sick.
So, I headed down the hall to the guest room.
For 3 nights
While those were 3 great nights of peace and rest (I won’t lie), I wouldn’t ever want to live like this permanently. Never in a million years!
In Sweden, they’re known to enjoy a good coffee outdoors, or Fika (a coffee break…
Never have so many of us spent so much time at home. It’s a time for innovation, and it’s a time for memories of the world we inhabited half-a-lifetime ago… or is it just a few weeks?!? That’s what Wendy Reichental writes about from her home in Montreal.
My husband and I are holed up now in our apartment, our own little world. The last time we spent this much time together was this past December while we were vacationing in Florida. It was to be our first three-week vacation. We were also celebrating the fact that I had made the decision to take early retirement. We were toasting to new beginnings and how 2020 would be a memorable year. Little did we know! Was that an innocent aspiration or an ominous premonition?
I just finished reading the book Rules for Visiting by Jessica Francis Kane. I discovered it quite fortuitously; I think I was googling ‘loneliness’ as a theme in novels and it popped up.
At first, I was put off thinking it might be a book about visiting someone sick at a hospital… but when I read the synopsis, I was immediately intrigued. The premise about an unmarried 40-year old woman who mostly keeps to herself and lives in her childhood home with her aging father, who suddenly decides to explore the meaning of “friends” and embarks on a friendship journey – got me to immediately click purchase!
There are tall ships
There are small ships
But the best ships
Are friendships…
Unless of course, when they’re not.
Yes, this post is about the dark side of friendship, better known as toxic friends, the Global TV segment I did this morning.
Happy Valentine’s Day to all! A different kind of post today… maybe one that might be a wakeup call.
I was once in a relationship with a wonderful guy who treated me like an absolute princess. In return, I treated him like he was second to my cell phone.
Charming, right?
Seeing those words on the screen, I doubly realize how incredibly pathetic that sounds. After all, if you have a great guy spoiling you, who wants to spend all of his time with you, why do you still need the lure of a cell phone to keep you entertained?
For some reason, I did.
I help busy women (like you!) prioritize self-care so you can experience less stress, more calm and greater joy every day!
