Left Brain wrote this | Right Brain approved it

In 2012 I wrote about my yoga brain. Fourteen years later I’ve realized I don’t have just one brain state. I have a whole house of them. There’s a yoga brain and a hiking brain. There’s a writing brain, a romance brain and a networking brain that counts the seconds until it can go home. There’s even a kitty brain. Each room has its own mix of analysis and flow, and I’ve found that the best moments happen in the doorways between them. Wander through with me.

Behind the eyes of a writer™: A series, part eight

I surrender now to you. To you, and to the powers that be that will make my dreams come true in a second once I let go. To you I speak…

Pensive thoughts show on our face, saying way more than we think

Are you able to think outside the box?

It's easy to have a grand plan for everything you do in life, along with trying to plot and control the outcome. Although it's important to advocate for yourself and your own destiny, sometimes it's better to let life just happen.

Synchronicity in your work and life

Carl G. Jung defines synchronicity as the conceptual relationship of minds, intricately structured in their own logical way which gives rise to that which is not causal in nature.
