I sure had fun watching six Western Cattle-Egrets pecking around in our backyard (a rare sighting!). One egret was having a tough time eating a grasshopper! Don't you hate it when your food won't fit in your mouth?

After spending the weekend entertaining family, I was eager to unwind in front of the TV with my husband. We spent a few hours doing so, but at some point I felt the need for a change of pace.

I suggested we take a short walk, and for 15 minutes, I engaged my senses. I felt the cool air against my skin, I heard the sounds of frogs singing and I saw fresh coyote tracks. This brief excursion provided a welcome break from my TV time.

Weekend TV marathons can be a common occurrence, offering a relaxing escape from the week’s hustle and bustle. However, it is crucial to take a short break, even just 10-15 minutes, to get outside and stimulate your senses. Allow yourself to fully experience your surroundings, and then return to your TV, feeling refreshed and relaxed.

How many colors do you see?

If you looked at the colors of this stormy sunset on display in my parent’s backyard, chances are the chaos in your brain began to slow down. Your breathing may have even slowed. In fact, you were experiencing what being present feels like.

To become more mindful and present, begin looking at your surroundings and start listing of the colors you see. Next, discover how many shapes exists.

Then, start listening. What do you hear? List them as you hear them.

Being mindful is key to your mental health. I like doing this exercise outside because of the additional benefits nature provides. Want to learn more? Let me know and I’ll share my Mini-Mind Reset exercise to help you become more mindful and feel relaxed in just a few minutes! And, hey. It’s free!

A legend like no other, Grizzly Bear #399 was the matriarch of the Grand Tetons. Though I only saw her five times starting with her visit to the valley in 2006, she is one of the reasons why we return to the Yellowstone Greater Ecosystem each year.

I had never seen a grizzly bear, not ever, not even in zoos. Wildlife Magazines? TV Nature Shows? Sure, but in the wild? Certainly not, and with three little cubs of the year, nonetheless! She taught me to be patient and avoid expectations. She taught me that discovery happens under the blue skies and on the green grass and in the deep woods. She taught me what being a wildlife advocate is all about.

Today, I speak about her on stages across this Earth and it is my honor and a privilege to share with others how to

Rest Your Mind
Refocus Your Priorities
and
Recharge Your Life
for a BETTER YOU!

It's and I'd love to share with your employees how the transformative power of nature can reduce stress and calm the chaos in your mind.
