Mindfulness for People Who Are Too Busy to Meditate
I am not convinced there are people to busy to meditate, but I appreciate the ideas and recommendations that are offered in this post, Mindfulness for People Who Are Too Busy to Meditate. I firmly believe through experience, anyone who meditates on a daily basis will improve their efficiency at work, home and life that it will create more time, rather take time from their day.

Providence Life Coach Dating Success Series – Conscious Coupling
Conscious coupling seems to be getting a lot of press these days, celebrities tend to make this sort of thing happen - Madonna at The Kabbalah Centre and Julia Roberts with Hindu are examples of when they speak openly about religion or spirituality.

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?" What would that feel like for you?
