  by Cheryl Sanchez Jul 15
  It's July! The lazy days of summer are here!   July is a great time to take a break, rest, and recharge your mind, body, and soul. It's a time to slow down, be present, and live in the moment. July brings with it a sense of time and opportunity to reflect, feel, and heal. &nb...

• Stop and Smell the Roses

  by Cheryl Sanchez May 4
  The month of May brings spring into full bloom. The seeds we planted, and the April showers, brought May flowers. It’s warmer. Daylight lasts longer. Grass is growing and flowers are blossoming. It’s less cold, dark, and gloomy and more warm, light, and bright. Our physical world chang...

  I recently saw an image of a Fall-themed painting that got me thinking... It was of a pumpkin and the pumpkin was shades of orange and aqua blue and the background was aqua blue. Not your typical fall color scheme. It made me think of the ocean and summer's last stand as we simultaneously kick-off a...

• September: A Beginning or an End?

  by Cheryl Sanchez September 10, 2023
  Labor Day, back to school... September can be busy, hectic, and a time of remembered obligation and routines.   It got me thinking about Labor Day being the unofficial end of summer that happens along with the beginning of the school year for so many. Is it a beginning or ...

  "August is the Sunday of Summer"   Have you heard that saying?   The summer, particularly July, is my favorite time of the year. Each year I would look forward to this time of the year, and then often dread the start of August - thinking of it as the "Sunday of Summer". But lately, I h...

  March is Women’s History Month, sometimes known as Women’s HER-story month. National Write Your Story Day also falls within the month of March on the 14th. With all this talk about stories, perhaps we can all be inspired to write our own stories and, maybe, even share them. Everyone has ...

  Sometimes we are so busy in our daily lives that we don’t even think about the relationships we are part of. Other times, like Valentine’s Day in the month of February, relationships can be in the forefront of our thoughts. Whether it’s a holiday or just any day, we should periodic...

• The Business of Choice

  by Cheryl Sanchez September 14, 2020
  As consumers, we are faced with choices daily. What products do we want to buy or need to buy? Where do we buy them? How do we buy them: online or in person? What services do we need? What about food? Do we cook ourselves or buy prepared meals? Carry out or dine in? So many choices. When making the...
