Singing for Spring

No I won’t actually make you sing, I was just referring to the song in my heart this glorious morning (although feel free to belt out a tune if that’s what you feel!) We’ve waited so long for this day – The Spring Equinox. A time of beginnings and renewals. The perfect day to write…

Put a Spring in Your Step

There’s no denying that Spring is on the horizon. In NYC, we thought it would never come but our unusual east coast patience is paying off. Beautiful sunny days are squeezed between snow flurries and there’s no ignoring the excitement on everyone’s rush hour faces when it’s still daylight at 6pm. Hooray Daylights Savings Time!…

Winter Doldrums No More!

This has been one looooong winter. I’m not complaining because (please don’t hate me) I’m one of those lucky folks who is not really affected by NY’s crazy weather changes. But one thing that does get me down is hearing people complain about the weather all the time and I mean, all. the. time. When…

Who do you Love?

Happy Valentine’s Day! For some, it’s a day that has been long prepared and waited for. For others, it’s a day that can not be over quickly enough. A big reason this holiday is dreaded is a lack of a romantic partner. Yes, that is definitely what Hallmark would like for you to feel. If…

Shaking up Tradition

I’m a pretty old fashioned kind of gal. I love traditional rituals but the eccentric in me always loves to throw in a twist or two. It keeps things spicy (and what’s life without a bit of spice?) and I had the opportunity to experiment during my Chinese New Year’s celebrations. I was honored to…

Gung Hay Fat Choy!

Gung Hay Fat Choi! That’s how we say Chinese New Year in my house. Literally translated, it means, “May you be prosperous.” Today is the equivalent to the Western Jan 1st. The difference is that the Chinese follow the lunar calendar as opposed to the Western solar calendar. But the celebrations are all the same….

On your mark, get ready….

It’s that time of year again and we’ll be prepping for the Year of the Wood Horse. Chinese New Year falls on January 31st and it promises to be a very active year. Think about what you know about horses in general – strong, fast moving animals with unbounding energy. Now imagine that in your…

Not so fast 2014!

Ok, so New Year’s eve festivities are done and over. Now what? This is where alot of us go Type A for about 3 weeks or so. But not for me this year. I am giving myself permission to slow down and reflect. Sure there’s stuff I would like to accomplish this year like everybody…

Closing out 2013 with a bang

It’s the last week of 2013 and there’s alot of powerful energy buzzing around. It seems as though everyone I speak to is experiencing some kind of unrest. And it’s understandable. We are in full holiday swing, recovering from excesses, reeling from the the energy shifts from the winter solstice (Dec 21st) but most importantly…

What’s on the outside DOES count

I’m a sucker for packaging. For example, I don’t really wear fragrance because I can’t find a scent in a bottle I really like. Does a product’s packaging really make that much of a difference? In Feng Shui – YES, especially when it comes to the facade of your home or business. Too often, I…
