Raising the Vibrations of your Space

Raising the Vibrations of your Space

Little fact about myself: I graduated with a degree in Interior and Environmental Design. I am not trying to be biased when I say that the places and spaces we come in contact with have significant impacts on our health. During my education, I learned the psychology behind design. Ever wonder why many fast food joints use the color red? Red is a stimulating color, increasing appetite and energy,…

Spontaneous Action: Use Your Time On This Earth To Create.

Spontaneous Action: Use Your Time On This Earth To Create.

We have all heard the saying, “Live every day as if it was your last”. What wise and truthful words indeed. This post will be rather short, because I worked very hard on a video for this topic today. As much as we plan for the future, it is the present we continue to live in. Of course, of course, of course have a set plan and goals for your future self, but if you find yourself doing nothing…

Wholeness vs. Duality in our Lives

Wholeness vs. Duality in our Lives

Hey guys, it’s been a while since I’ve written anything. Life seems to have kept me busy. Ah, haven’t we all heard that saying before? Isn’t that why we go for months without seeing friends? Isn’t that sometimes we why put off those vacations, cooking classes, or workouts? Life keeps us busy. Our one life seems to sometimes split into many subgroups. We have our social life, where we fulfill our…

Why Negativity Gets You Nowhere

Why Negativity Gets You Nowhere

We’ve all heard the phrase “nice guys finish last”, “all publicity is good publicity, whether positive or negative” or “jerks rule the world!”. Ok, maybe not so much that last one, but it would be hard to find someone who doesn’t agree with that statement. The point is we hear a lot about how being a jerk can  help us climb the ladder: social, economic, or simply the ladder in your garage. In a…

All Hail The Number 11

All Hail The Number 11

This is something that I haven’t mentioned much because, well, I needed it to be much more prevalent. For those of you who know about synchronicity, the number 11 has been coming up each and every day, almost every other hour, if not each hour, since August 2015. Now, let’s make this clear. The number 11 is important because it conveniently comes up. I do not force it into my life, hence the…

Individuality vs Wholeness

Being a natural observer and philosopher, I have been pondering the idea of wholeness vs. individuality. The balancing act. We as a species, seek wholeness in our community. To feel a sense of love and belonging. To form social bonds. We as individuals though, seek individuality and uniqueness, through our egos. To be one of a kind. It is a goal, to seek harmony within these two views. This…

Thoughts on Happiness

Hello there, Writing this article is a lot harder than I thought I’d be, even though I have ideas as to what I want to talk about. Let me spew out the raw, unedited ideas at you, just like I do with every other article. Happiness is fun. From my personal perspective, happiness seems to be hard to find in society. Boy oh boy, society. It’s the holiday season, as we like to say in this…
