Are you ready for a new life?


Whether you’re coping with:

Transitions

Stress

Feeling stuck

Depression

Procrastination

Loss

Anxiety


When you’re aging gracefully (or not), dealing with disability, chronic illness, or the frustration of creative block, you can remember to transform your fear and pain into creative living. It’s both an art and a science. We’re here to help with both.

The art of happiness lies in creating your life as a work of art. You can live your vision of balance, love, and wisdom with clarity. You can find your voice and learn to live and write out loud.


"If you ask me what I came to do in this world, I, an artist,
I will answer you: I am here to
live out loud."

Emile Zola



The “new” Positive Psychology documents paths to happiness that have been tested scientifically (and throughout the ages). According to the latest research, if you have goals and ways to move closer to them, you have hope.

With hope, you can move one step ahead and take the next step and the next and the next. You don’t have to see the whole path ahead of you. Just take the first step.




“Where there is no way, the hopeful person will find a way.”

C. R. Synder--Psychological Researcher




Learning to love again?

Feel blocked or unable write, sculpt, design, or paint?

Unable to begin a new project?

Have goals, but wonder about the hows of reaching them?

Is it time to live your vision out loud and find like-minded travelers?



Now is your time to:


Know what you really, really want

Reach for your heart’s desires

Bring more love into your life

Live simply if you choose

Seek wisdom

Restore hope

Make your life a work of art

Take the next steps in spite of fear

Feel the creative flow

Achieve balance on a daily basis

Transform your troubles into strengths

Find clarity and inspiration for your journey

Celebrate your life

Bring your unique gifts to the world



“Tell me, what is it you plan to
do with your one wild
and precious life?”

Mary Oliver—The Summer Day



You can choose to stay stuck, frustrated, and stressed, or you can move forward now toward the life of your dreams.

Not some day.

Now.

Whoever you are, wherever you are, and whatever has happened to you in the past, you still have a choice about how to live your life from now onward. Much may have been taken from you, but much remains. You can:

· Make a new path for your life.

· Do one small thing differently.

· Understand your old stories in new ways.

· Examine and reinterpret your old life story compassionately.

· Use your old life story as fuel for your new stories.

· Decide to tell yourself new stories and sing new songs.

· Transform your life and the way you think about yourself.
