Providence Life Coach Dating Success Series – Mindful Dating
What is mindful dating? Mindful dating is bringing all of you to the present, including your Highest Self, to dating. Dating is often thought of as an exercise in wanting to convince someone you are good enough for them, what if we flipped this around to say, "I want to bring all of me to dating and see if we are going to be a sensational down the road after we get to know each other, not just during the honeymoon phase of dating?"

How Spirituality Protects the Brain Against Depression
I recently read this article posted in Psych Central titled How Spirituality Protects the Brain Against Depression. We have seen many demonstrations of meditation preventing depression relapse over the last twenty years or so, good to see it published in the JAMA Psychiatry.
