Life Advice from Mr Rogers and 1434!!

October 10th was Mental Health Awareness Day - and a call for us all to Keep Talking, Keep Sharing, Keep Connecting, Keep Listening and Keep Shining! It makes a big difference when we share our struggles to help others know they're not alone. When I was searching for Mr Rogers' famous quote about looking for the helpers I also came across this one.... “Anything that’s human is mentionable, and anything that is mentionable can be more manageable.

Vibing on LOVE, JOY, ANDY GRAMMER, and GRATITUDE

  Happy Summer! I hope your season is off to a lovely start! Mine sure is and I'm quite certain it has something to do with the practice I put back in place this year of making daily gratitude posts. I did this for years and then stopped - it's important to notice when something becomes a chore versus an opportunity! This year I jumped back in and we're on Day 174-ish of the year. It's a great way to presence all the goodness we have in our life and help keep our vibration high. If you're interested in following along on my adventures friend or follow me on Facebook and Instagram - though for now those daily posts are...
