MIND. BODY. SOUL.
Written by Contributing Blogger, Audrea. And so it begins…the last month of summer. The month where you start to smell fall creeping in but the heat makes you feel like it won’t be anytime soon. It’s my month where I start to prepare for the second half of the year, harking back to the days of ...
At least we have a playlist to cheers as we mourn the end of summer and look forward to the crisp Autumn days (and pumpkin everything)... Things to look forward to on the playlist include (but are definitely not limited to): Duran Duran Icona Pop Kelly Clarkson (old school) Vance Joy X Ambassadors (not the Renegades song, although we do love ...
It's summer. And before you know it (don't hate me) the holidays will be here. We're constantly on the go...we're constantly traveling.

We all have our excuses. I don't have time. I have other things to do. I don't want to carry a book with me. My commute is too hectic. But reading has truly never been easier, and I dig it. First I took the leap a few years back into the Kindle and all the digital ...
She sits in a coffee shop Her pencil twirling round and round Perplexed in confusion Unsure of the page to turn The lamp dims letting shadows in The fan quells the dampness A chair tilts in the background The mirror reflects a jaded rust Her eyes scan the room She bits her lip in an unsure distrust Her eyebrow raises She crosses the other leg The door ...

The options are less, which in turn has made me make healthier food choices overall. But you don't have to be GF to eat better. It all starts with a mindset, ...
