WHAT’S NEW? I just have to confess….
I’m in love with Game of Thrones.
There I said it.
And I’m curious if you love the show too. I’ve read all the books and am waiting for the next one to be published. I do love love fantasy (I’m a Harry Potter fan too). 🙂
Blessings & love, Sheri

If you love Aromatherapy this webinar is for you…..
I’m so excited about my friend Andrea Butje’s awesome upcoming free webinar! If you want to become a Certified Aromatherapist and have questions about what’s involved, you’re going to LOVE this webinar.
Andrea’s the founder of Aromahead Institute, and she’s created a really fun and educational webinar. She’s going to outline what it takes to be recognized as a Certified Aromatherapist by two of the most prominent organizations in the Aromatherapy industry—the AIA (Alliance of International Aromatherapists) and NAHA (National Association for Holistic Aromatherapy). She’s also going to teach you how to understand essential oil chemistry (this is sooooooo fun)!
This webinar will be perfect for you if:
- You’ve used essential oils before, but want to take your knowledge to the next level so you can help more people live healthier lives.
- You already make your own body products, but want to feel more confident choosing the most effective oils for each product.
- You’re new to essential oils, but already know you want to work with them professionally.
The webinar will run for about 1.5 hours, and Andrea will stay on afterward for a Q&A session.
The webinar will be offered multiple times so you can choose the date that works best for you. 🙂
OUR FEATURED ARTICLE
Practices for Nurturing Happiness
Thich Nhat Hanh
We all want to be happy and there are many books and teachers in the world that try to help people be happier. Yet we all continue to suffer.
Therefore, we may think that we’re “doing it wrong.” Somehow we are “failing at happiness.” That isn’t true. Being able to enjoy happiness doesn’t require that we have zero suffering. In fact, the art of happiness is also the art of suffering well. When we learn to acknowledge, embrace, and understand our suffering, we suffer much less. Not only that, but we’re also able to go further and transform our suffering into understanding, compassion, and joy for ourselves and for others.
One of the most difficult things for us to accept is that there is no realm where there’s only happiness and there’s no suffering. This doesn’t mean that we should despair. Suffering can be transformed. As soon as we open our mouth to say “suffering,” we know that the opposite of suffering is already there as well. Where there is suffering, there is happiness.
According to the creation story in the biblical book of Genesis, God said, “Let there be light.” I like to imagine that light replied, saying, “God, I have to wait for my twin brother, darkness, to be with me. I can’t be there without the darkness.” God asked, “Why do you need to wait? Darkness is there.” Light answered, “In that case, then I am also already there.”
If we focus exclusively on pursuing happiness, we may regard suffering as something to be ignored or resisted. We think of it as something that gets in the way of happiness. But the art of happiness is also the art of knowing how to suffer well. If we know how to use our suffering, we can transform it and suffer much less. Knowing how to suffer well is essential to realizing true happiness.
