England Board Should Clarify Why Kevin Pietersen Was Dropped: Andrew Flintoff
Former England all-rounder Andrew Flintoff yesterday, urged the England and Wales Cricket Board to satisfactorily explain the reasons for sacking former captain and star batsman Kevin Pietersen.
Pietersen was dropped following the Ashes whitewash last winter, with ECB managing director Paul Downton since claiming that the 34-year-old had become "disengaged" from the side.
However, former Pietersen's former teammate Flintoff believes the ECB should go into further detail about why they axed a player with 23 Tests and 9 One-Day International centuries.

Peru May 2012 Pantone takes out a writ for violating Pantone's human rights, defamation and demands damages of $100,000 Peruvian Soles (approximately USD $35,000) against the Yaguas Amazon Indian Chief and President of the Federation of "FEPYRA" and the community leaders of native communities of Cuzco, Sabalillo, Boca Apayacu,San Augusto one Fasanando Jucas Javier Luis. A 100,000 Peruvian soles, ($35,000 USD) is more money than Fasanando Amazon Indian would earn in a life time. Under Peruvian law, if Dan Pantone wins in the case and Javier Fasanado cannot pay the 100,000 Peruvian soles, this Amazon Indian chief will be put in prison.
Source: Court Document
Dan Pantone in the past has allegedly tried to have people killed, he has allegedly tried to bribe the Indians $30,000 and he has allegedly forged their signatures now he is suing them. Dan Pantone is not finished with the Amazon Indian or David Nilsson.
Plus 60 Minutes Channel 9 Australia are aiding Dan Pantone on 60 Minute's own website, by the promotion of Dan Pantone's sale of his illegal videos of the Amazon Indians,
In my opinion, Dan Pantone's associates could also be charged with aiding and abetting, conspiracy and accessory after the fact. There are laws in place both in Peru and a Australia for this to happen.

Remembrance Festival, In Memory of Bingo Players' Paul Baumer, Announced for Miami
The late Paul Baümer.
"I'm ready to fight this thing."
That's how Bingo Players' Paul Baümer took on his unexpected and devastating cancer diagnosis last summer. But sadly, though he showed great courage and admirable resilience, the Dutch DJ-producer passed away on December 17, 2013.
Now, in Baümer's memory, the fight continues. And next month in Miami, his Bingo Players partner, Maarten Hoogstraten, and music manager Toby Benson, as well as many other EDM-scene supporters will take part in the inaugural Remembrance Festival.

Taking place during Winter Music Conference and Miami Music Week, Remembrance will feature "some of dance music's biggest and brightest stars," the festival's official announcement states, "com[ing] together at the Ice Palace in Miami to help raise funds for cancer research."

"Remembrance is, in its meaning, the action of remembering someone," Benson, the festival organizer, says in a statement. "To me, dance music has always symbolized a certain vitality, energy and celebration of life. To combine both the forward-looking celebration and the remembering of things past for a positive purpose makes it all the more powerful.
"Many people are dealing with cancer on a daily basis," he adds, "and I hope we can create an environment where people can share their stories, celebrate the memory of those that have passed and the life we thankfully still have."
Remembrance Festival. Thursday, March 27. Ice Palace Studios, 1400 N. Miami Ave., Miami. The event begins at 10 p.m. and tickets go on sale Tuesday, February 11, via wantickets.com. A portion of proceeds will benefit Paul Baümer's preferred charity, KWF Kankerbestrijding (Dutch Cancer Society), as well the American Cancer Society. Ages 21 and up.

Shahar Rozenberg (1977-1997)
Fell in the helicopter disaster at Sha'ar Yeshuv 4th February 1997
Shahar Rozenberg, son of Dvora and Arie was born on Friday 24th February 1977, brother to Einat and Sagi. He grew up in Nes Ziona where he went to elementary school "Rishonim" and then on to "BenGurion" High School. Shahar belonged to the Maccabi Tzair Youth Movement where he was also a youth group leader, he participated in the Maccabiah Games in 1981 and 1985. To his friends he was known as Shahik or Shaharon.
Humanistic at heart he loved reading about psychology and anthropology especially about distant lands and cultures. His favourite presents were books on art especially Leonardo de Vince, Salvador Dali and Picasso. He was also interested in the writings of Nitzche however at the same time he was a football fan of Maccabi Tel Aviv.
Shahar wrote short stories and poetry and left many treasured notebooks. He had many friends especially from his home town Nes Ziona.
His parents said: "Half way through high school, Shahar found the love of his life, Anat, a very special girl who fitted him like a glove". Both loved to travel all around the country, Negev, Sinai, Judaen desert, Carmel, Galil but their favoutire place was Mount Tabor. Shahar went abroad several times with his family but the most remembered trip was the one he organized for his friends and himself – their trip to the Greek Islands – before they were drafted into the army.
Shahar wanted to do combat duty however he had to get special permission from his parents due to a medical problem. At the end of July 1995 Shahar started his military service and after basic training he joined a special force unit of the Nahal.
On Tuesday evening the 4th of February, 1997 there was a tragic helicopter disaster when two helicopters crashed above Sha'ar Yeshuv in the North of Israel. Seventy three soldiers on their way to combat duty in South Lebanon were killed, there were no survivors.
Shahar was 20 years old. After his death he was promoted to sergeant and buried in the military cemetary in Nes Ziona. Shahar left his parents, sister, brother, girlfriend and many friends.

Cardcaptor Sakura
Genres: adventure, magic, romance
Themes: magical girl, school
Plot Summary: Sakura Kinomoto was an ordinary 4th grader until the day she opened a strange book and let dozens of powerful magic cards loose on the world. Keroberos, the Guardian of the Clow Cards, informs Sakura that it is now her responsibility to find and capture the freed cards. However, much to the reluctant Sakura's dismay, things aren't going to be easy for her; simply saying magic words and waving her wand around isn't good enough. Each card is a living, thinking, extremely powerful being. She'll have to learn to cope with her new responsibilities, as well as ordinary troubles involving love, school, family, and friends. With the support of her friend Tomoyo and a young boy with powers of his own, she must learn how to use her newly awakened magical abilities to collect each card and prevent the disaster that will befall the world if she doesn't.
Since Crunchyroll is about to stream the entire series (ANN Announcement), I figured it might be a good time to create a series discussion thread for this oldie but goodie. I checked the series discussion index thread and didn't see any entry there, and I assume if there is a discussion thread it is probably many years old.
I've read a few of the news articles to try and get a better understanding for the release schedule, and it seems like all of the subbed episodes will come out on Tuesday August 12, and dubbed episodes "as produced," so I'm not sure if that means there will be a roll out of the dubbed episodes in some way? Well, anyway, I figured it might be nice to have a thread to discuss the show.
I went to re-watch episode 1 in advance of the CR release. I haven't watched the show in years, and there were all kinds of memories that flooded back after watching just a little bit. For example, I remember thinking Sakura was kind of "cool" because she gets about on inline skates. I guess that was back when inline skates were such a huge fad, but it's really kind of interesting to think about now since inline skates (like skateboards) were kind of looked at in pop culture as a "boys" type of thing. I recall someone else in the forum earlier talking about the psychology of magical girl shows (I think it was in the thread discussing the lack of "magical boy" shows), and how they thought that transforming into a magical girl for battle was sort of like a girl taking on some kind of role that society normally left to boys (battling evil), and so the girls transformed into a different person in order to take on that "warrior" role. If you accepted that theory, then I wonder if Sakura might be a subversion of that type of concept if she is presented in that "tomboyish" manner from the get-go. Just some food for thought.

I watched the subbed and dubbed before. (well I re-watched the dubbed a few years ago even though I watched it before during my childhood). Overall, it turned out to be one of my favorite all time series.
It's an instant classic and I like the characters and overall story. The Japanese version has some hidden mature themes with the relationship between two particular characters. The only two problems I had with the show are perhaps some less emphasis on the cards (with some over usage on some cards like the Fly card despite it getting little characterization). Some other cards like the Mirror Card really stood out and I liked how the show focused on them occasionally. The other problem is perhaps the show dragged a bit during the third season. Overall, an excellent series though imo. I would watch some of these episodes occasionally still even today. I'll probably check out CR's Cardcaptor Sakura release next week when it comes out.

The quality of animation gives it a very dated look, but it's still a classic that defined a genre. I'm glad I picked up the whole set of DVD singles when Right Stuf was offering them as a bundle.
I could see myself watching it on CR over the next few weeks.

This one's an old favorite that I've been meaning to rewatch for quite some time, so I'm definitely taking this chance. I consider Sakura a pioneer member of the inspiring magical girl heroines club (also featuring Usagi Tsukino, Duck, and many more), and her adventures are still charming.

Cutesy Magical girl storyline. it has Funny moments lovable characters especially Kero, and it's enough to say this is the best animation of Clamp i've ever seen in my life.

11-Year-Old American Soccer Prodigy Heads To FC Barcelona's Academy
Every young soccer player dreams of being part of a world class soccer team - In April, 11-year old Southern Californiaresident, Ben Lederman came one step closer to fulfilling his, by becoming the first American to be offered a spot for a two-year training program at FC Barcelona's Youth Academy.
The invitation-only La Masia academy, is considered to be one of the world's best soccer training schools. Some of its most famous alumni include FC Barcelona midfielders Andre Iniesta and Xavi Hernandez and also, the team's forward Lionel Messi.
Ben was first spotted by the Spanish coaches in the spring of 2010, when his team FC Barcelona Penya, Los Angeles competed and won against the academy's team. His performance impressed the coaches so much, that in April of 2011, they invited him to try out for a spot at the soccer school.
The youngster whose style of play and ball control skills have been compared to Andres Iniesta, did so well, that he was immediately offered a two-year stint to train with them.
This of course does not guarantee him a spot in the team or even an extension after his initial two-year training period is up - But, it is definitely a step in the right direction and very exciting for the young prodigy who lives and breathes soccer and has been ardent fan of the four-time European champions, since he was a toddler!

Manuel: Arming teachers isn't the answer
January 21, 2013
Likely, we can all agree on one thing: We simply must make the world safer for our children and ourselves. This complex issue should include discussions of reducing the nightly onslaught of violence for entertainment, improved identification of the dangerously mentally ill and background checks. The simplistic solutions sometimes presented on these editorial pages are naively just that, simplistic and unrealistic.
The idea that more guns will create more safety is chief among these. This concept is the adult equivalent of a night light: It provides reassurance but does not stop the monsters. Arming teachers is perhaps the silliest idea of all. The Bureau of Justice Statistics reports on police killings each year. In the 22 years studied, officers were killed by their own weapons in 12 percent of the deaths. This means that young, fit, strong, well-trained, and usually above-averaged-sized men are arming their own murderers. Now picture your first grade teacher fending off a similar attack.
The reality of a shooting situation is that the assailant almost always shoots first. People intent on shooting know who the enemy is — you — and you do not know their plans. Unless you allow teachers to draw down on any stranger, I guarantee that a school shooter will kill them before their gun clears the holster. The hypothetical armed teacher will only be successful in stopping attacks if she is allowed to immediately shoot anyone with a visible firearm (not likely legally supportable).
The teacher must also be able to kill the assailant with her first shot. Why? Because if we allow weapons with large capacities, the assailant doesn't even need to be very accurate as he sprays rounds at her. In virtually all cases, having a weapon, especially a revolver with a six shot capacity, would change nothing.
An armed "good guy" at the Gabrielle Gifford's shooting in Tucson (13 injured, six killed) didn't use his weapon. In that instance, a 74-year-old man tackled the shooter and was quickly aided by other bystanders, including the armed civilian. When Ronald Reagan was shot, there were numerous top flight Secret Service agents surrounding him as his attacker fired six bullets in 1.7 seconds. No agents shot for a variety of sound reasons. Unarmed civilians took Reagan's assailant to the ground. Recently, a gunman entered a coffee shop in Parkland, Wash., and killed four people. Would having a gun have saved them? Obviously not, as all four were armed on-duty police officers.
I target shoot. Can I hit a target the size of a person's face at 25 yards, the kind of shot required to have stopped the theater shooter? Usually yes, in broad daylight taking careful aim when I am not excited. Could I have made the shot, drawing attention to myself and loved ones in a dark, crowded, chaotic theater? What's your guess? And I'm betting our teachers will perform no better.
Let's consider realistic solutions for our children, such as building architecture and building security. This is far more realistic than asking our educators to devote five hours a month to firearms training instead of lesson plans.

Making All Parts of Travel Easeful, FUN and Healthy {Part 2}
On my last blog, I talked about easeful trip preparation, for you and your business, and how to transition and get settled more easily when you return home.
In this blog, I'll be focusing on your physical health while traveling.
For me, my physical health (which impacts my mental and emotional health) is affected hugely by 3 things when traveling – Food, Hydration, Supplementation. Here are my favorite tips and strategies for feeling both healthy during and after travel.
1. Pack Your Own Food and / or Snacks
Best case scenario – if I have time, I'll pack my own salad or go to Whole Foods (if on the way to the airport) and grab a takeaway salad. This isn't always feasible (like only 20% of the time) so at the very least I pack unsalted nuts, nutrition bars, a piece of fruit, a bag of baby carrots and raw chocolate.
2. Hydrate Like Crazy!
Drinking water during the flight (and avoiding coffee, soda and alcohol) is one of the best ways to combat travel stress, fatigue and jet lag. These are the 3 ways I hydrate to keep it interesting, feel great and have something to look forward to on long flights (I'm ALL about having things to look forward to :)
~ Hydrate With Superfoods
One of my favorite ways to hydrate is to buy the biggest bottle of water I can find (after I go through security) and add in Amazing Grass' Green SuperFood Cacao Chocolate Infusion and 4-6 drops of Sweet Leaf's English Toffee Liquid Stevia*.
I then instantly have a full bottle of cold, refreshing, heavenly goodness. Seriously, drinking this mixture makes me feel SO good during the flight (it's usually gone in an hour).
*Both are pictured above and available at Whole Foods or Amazon.
~ Hydrate with Herbal Tea
Strangely, US airlines don't seem to have herbal tea onboard (international flights do carry green tea), so pack 2-3 herbal tea bags and a glass tea tumbler. I use our Sacred Lotus Love Tea Tumblers, of course :) Simply ask the flight attendant to fill your Tea Tumbler with hot water – they don't mind, when you ask really nicely.
~ Hydrate with Sparkling Water
When asked what I want to drink – I always ask for sparkling water. Another way to keep you drinks healthy…and interesting.
3. Bring Treats
If you've done my SexyFit™ Nutrition Challenge, you'll know that I'm a huge believer in having healthy treats to look forward to, and that I also really promote "filling the void". Limited options, hunger and boredom make it easier to succumb to eating unhealthy food – so bring your own healthy treats to replace that bag of snack cookies. My favorites? Raw Chocolate and Raw Chocolate Macaroons – traveling or not.
4. Avoid / Minimize
These are pretty obvious (all are dehydrating), but avoid or minimize the following as they make travel fatigue and recovery worse:
- Salt, Sugar + White Carbs
- Caffeine + Alcohol
- Sauces + Desserts
- Most airplane snacks
5. Maximize
Airports ARE getting much better these days with choices for healthy options. I try to eat these foods:
- Salads + Healthy Dressings
- Raw Veggies + Greens
- Raw Nuts + Fruit
- Healthy Proteins + Low Glycemic Carbs
6. Boost Your Immune System
I never go a day without my USANA supplements, but when I know I'll be traveling, I add in extra Proflavanol C100 (USANA's Grapeseed Extract and Vit C) 2 days before, during and 2 days after, to naturally boost my immune system.
7. Never Beat Yourself Up
What fully intend to eat great while traveling, and even pack healthy snacks…but you miss a connecting flight, end up sleeping overnight in a Singapore airport b/c all the hotels are booked, can't find anything healthy to eat, are overtired, stressed and hangry? And proceed to eat your way to from Singapore-Japan-USA?
I've been there, exactly, as a matter of fact – on a killer flight 4 years ago.
So, what did I do? I finally arrived at my destination, drank a huge glass of water, took my USANA MyHealthPak and extra Proflavanol C100 and went to bed. The next morning, I got up, MOVED in natural light (ran for 20 min outside), ate a healthy breakfast high in protein, drank lots of water, kept my blood sugar balanced the whole day by eating extra protein and greens, went to bed early and didn't beat myself up over it.
It's so important to remember that one day will not affect your overall health negatively; it's what you do AFTER that matters most. I love this question as it always helps me get back on track – "what would healthy person would do now?" Be gentle and nurturing with yourself during this one day, knowing that tomorrow you will be completely back on track and feeling great.
And yes, Tips 1-6 do require a little more planning (packing snacks, herbal tea bags, tea tumbler, supplements), but they help ensure that you have healthy and interesting options (hunger and boredom will push you towards unhealthy food).
And why not make your trip as enjoyable as possible – and something that you look forward to, even if it takes a little more work on the front end?
Preparation, Filling the Void and Not Beating Yourself Up if you DO have a less-than-healthy travel day, are all part of making travel really work for you. These days, I love all parts of travel b/c I intentionally create the environment I want – healthy, ease-ful, interesting and pleasurable.
Over to you! Did this resonate? Do personally use any of the above tips already? What other travel tips help you wander the world with ease, enjoyment and health? What non-negotiable health strategies that make all the difference for you?
Share here – the best insights happen in the comments when we share our ideas and strategies. I personally read every single comment and and always respond – I love to hear.

Making All Parts of Travel Easeful, FUN and Healthy {Part 1}
I LOVE travel – everything about it. Well, almost everything. NOT the packing, unpacking…and the extra effort it takes to stay healthy.
So, when I started living around the world six years ago, and knowing I was going to be doing a lot of travel, by choice, I decided that I was going to make even the UN-FUN parts of travel…enjoyable, ease-ful and healthy.
Note: I've written this as 2-part blog so it's easy to digest and put into action. Today, I'll give you my favorite strategies for easeful preparing + packing, for your business, and for you when you return home. On my next blog I'll dive into how to stay physically and emotionally healthy while traveling.
1. Eliminate the "Shoot – I forgot my ____, again!"
Keep a running "My Travel List" of the things you typically forget AND what you think of while on trips (this last trip I was wishing I'd brought my little wooden lemon reamer for lemon water in the am!). Have at least 2 lists as they require different packing strategies:
- My Travel List – Business
- My Travel List – Vacation
What's my favorite App for this? I use Reminders on my iPhone as it's super easy to use (example shown above) and I continually add to my lists.
2. Use Your Subconscious
A week before your trip, designate an area (corner of your bedroom, a chair or even a bed in a spare room) to start collecting things you know you'll want or need on your trip.
Our subconscious works on our behalf 24/7 – it will think of items a whole week before – so you can employ it to your advantage. All kind of things will come to mind – books, food items, gifts, and those shoes you'll need for _____ .
This simple strategy helps take the stress, pressure and anxiety out of packing at the last moment. I find I actually ENJOY packing when I spread it out over a week and let my subconscious do a good part of the work.
3. Create Space BEFORE you leave home
Set up an "out of office" email auto responder to let your clients know you're on vacation or a business trip. This makes your whole trip more easeful as you're setting the correct expectations for your clients – that you won't be available as quickly or readily as you normally are when in your office. This allows for flexibility and breathing room when traveling (which invariably you'll need) and helps your clients feel included and know what to expect.
Here's the one I just used for my trip to the US for 8 weeks. Feel free use / customize for you in anyway:
Hello _____,
Thank you for reaching out! I will be traveling in the US from April 25 – June 23, so my email response may be a little slower than usual. I will get back to you as soon as possible though :)
If you need immediate assistance, please email my assistant at email@example.com
If you have a USANA related question, please call customer care directly at _____.
Looking forward to connecting when I'm back in the office!
Lots of love,

4. Maximize Air Travel Time
I absolutely LOVE flying – the hours when I'm "between time and worlds". No one can call me 😃, distractions are at a minimum (as long as you have you earphones in) – so I have incredibly focused time for planning, creating, writing, replying to emails and even getting my inbox managed etc.
I use my flying time, what I consider magical time, for creating and getting "caught up".
5. Upgrade Your Environment
Get a credit card that gives you air miles for every purchase, and use those miles for flight upgrades and airport lounges. (Some credit cards even give you a year's membership to airport lounges). I use credit cards for everything*, not only b/c it's easier for accounting / tax purposes, but just as importantly, so that my money and purchases are working for me, and I'm always collecting miles.
I use miles to upgrade to business / first class and use airport lounges so that I have the best places to work in (strong WIFI, power sources and a great work environment). Another reason I look forward now to ALL aspects of travel is knowing I'll have a quieter work space AND access to good food (airport lounges almost always have healthy alternatives for snacks).
My two personal favorite credit cards for accruing air miles are: Chase's United Mileage Club Visa Card (United Airlines + Partners miles only, but necessary to use in countries that don't accept American Express such as Bali, and it includes a membership to United + Partner Airport Lounges) and both Gold + Platinum American Express Cards (you can put miles towards ANY airline, which I prefer….but some countries, like Bali, don't accept American Express, so I've needed to use a Visa card instead).
Tip: I recently found out about this cool couple and their website which has some really great advice on choosing credit cards for miles: https://www.get.com/
*Very Important: I always, always pay my credit cards in full so that I am never incurring any interest charges. EVER. Which is a very important part of creating wealth. You want your money and purchases working for you, not for a credit card company.
6. Extend Your Trip:
Obviously, extending your trip can definitely create more ease 😃, but what I mean in this example, is to PAD your travel period with 1 day before and 1 day after. This is one of the most important things you can do for your health, personal life AND your business.
For example, for my 8 week trip:
- Flew to the mainland on April 25 and returned June 21.
- Used April 24 to pack and organize myself.
- Used June 22 to unpack and "land".
Thus, my auto responder said that I was "out of the office" from April 24 – June 23, and I was.
I've been doing this for about 5 years (but it took me about 2 years before that to make it non-negotiable – don't let it take you that long! :). It's my secret weapon for making traveling both ease-ful and enjoyable. I use the day before to get packed, attend to all personal things and do minor business things that don't cause more work (I don't do anything major – i.e. meetings, coaching etc).
I then also give myself a FULL 24 hours after I return to unpack, get organized in my personal life, laundry, plan and the most important part – actually LAND in back in time and space. If you travel across time zones and countries, this is even more important – to have a day for your body (and soul) to catch up.
Okay – that's it for Part 1…health focused Part 2 in the next blog!
Over to you! Did this resonate? Do personally use any of the above tips already? What other travel tips help you wander the world with ease, enjoyment and health? What non-negotiable travel strategies that make all the difference for you?

The Cost of Taking Your Business Online
I've been reflecting on the 10 days I spent in Denver for our Live Well Training Week for my LW and SexyFit™ Coaches.
Guess what the #1 AHA / learning / favorite thing of the whole week long training was? From almost all participants, including me?
The in person connection.
It wasn't the awesome business and lifestyle training :) It wasn't the health, entrepreneur or personal development training. It wasn't even the SexyFit™ Dance Classes (although that came a close second – music to my ears).
It was the connection and interaction that we all experienced during the 10 days.
So interesting and thought provoking.
Why? 6 years ago I moved my 80% in person business, to an 80% online business. This was a HUGE step in creating a life I loved, as I had always dreamed of living around the world and being able to work from anywhere…from just my laptop.
Doing this meant that my programs and trainings were now 80% online and completely scalable. It meant that all my 1×1 coaching was done over the phone or Skype. It meant that the 20% remaining ( Create A Life You Love Retreats, teaching SexyFit™ Dance and running 1-2 trainings per year ) were basically the only things I did in person.
And I'm SO glad I did it. I've been able to work with many more people than was ever possible previously. I've been able to live in unique places, experience new things and evolve. And I love running a business online because it's the ultimate freedom – working hard, but for myself, on my own terms.
However, it came with a cost: A loss of connection with real people, in real time, in person.
Don't get me wrong – I still love being an online entrepreneur and wouldn't trade it for anything. But ironically, I've noticed that the more online I've gone and the more freedom I've created for myself, the less real and deep connection I've fostered.
This may seem very obvious to you, especially because we know Facebook, Instagram and being glued to our phones or laptops all day, isn't the answer for a fulfilling and soulful life.
But I mean something more than that. I mean that even when you think you're living a life you love, creating more freedom and independence, be mindful not to create so much freedom, as to no longer have real connection.
We need both.
Without freedom (one of my highest values), I feel suffocated. But without connection, I feel unfulfilled. UN-soulful.
Since I've been sharing things that I believe have contributed to my feeling irritable and bitchy for the past year, I suspect a lack of deeper connection with people IN PERSON has been a part of these feelings.
So, on our US trip for the past month to Laguna Beach – Denver – Miami, I've been making a concerted effort to connect and catch up with old friends. And damn, it's felt good 😃
Thank you.
To every single one of my friends, colleagues and partners that have welcomed me back into your life. THANK YOU for reminding me how how important in person connection is and how good it feels to spend time in person, not just through Facetime and Voxer.
How much do you need of both in your own life?

Bitchy For A Year
I've been irritable for over a year.
There are so many reasons that I could use to legitimize and explain-away my crankiness – the state of the world, starting two new companies, challenges in business and life, moving, buying a house, new relationship, reinvention of self…
But bottom line, I'm just cranky.
And, it's not how, or who I want to be. I know that stress wreaks absolute havoc on my health, weight (hello 8lbs from nowhere) and immune system, as well as my confidence, motivation and relationships. And most importantly, I don't like how I feel or the energy I'm giving out. It's not how I want to experience life – or how I want people to experience me.
So, over the next few blogs, I want to share some of the ways that stress has affected me, and what I've been doing about it. Some are little things, some are bigger things. But all are things that move me away from being loving and happy, and result in my being resistant, tense…and, well, bitchy.
Assuming the Worst
One of the things I've noticed over this past year is that I assume the worst. I didn't used to be like that, but I definitely have been lately.
There are many reasons why we assume. I personally think that three of the biggest reasons in today's world are: (1) we live in an ever-increasing fast paced culture, (2) we have minimal bandwidth and are emotionally raw from being constantly stressed, and (3) our brain tries to help and takes shortcuts (assumes), in an effort to give us more time.
But assuming exacerbates everything and not only creates more work for me (un-doing the damage I create when I assume incorrectly) but it also creates more resistance and tension in my body.
Why? Because typically, I'm not assuming the best case scenario, I'm assuming the worst.
It's natural, and understandable, but it doesn't have the effect I want – I end up being even more tense and frustrated, which doesn't help anything.
And it definitely doesn't support living a life I love.
I've noticed that I assume:
- Anytime I'm rushing. For example – when I speed-read an email on my iPhone, I can completely misinterpret the whole dialogue.
- In conversations, I quickly jump to conclusions, without asking questions and finding out all the facts (and feelings).
- When I've had a negative past experience. I'm already tense and resistant state even before I begin a conversation – call centers, banks, business meetings having to do with finances, and things that I feel like I've been really clear about, but are showing up again.
Can you relate to any of the above?
So what can we do – besides going to live on an idyllic island in the south pacific with no news, no stress and no challenges?
What I've been doing that helps:
1. S….l…o…w…i…n…g….D…o…w….n
I've been deliberately slowing down for 1-2 minutes, 3x's per day so my body can decompress; so I'm not consistently in fight or flight mode. We've got to make time to slow down in today's world. The faster we go, the more information we assault our senses with, the more tension we create in our body. Slowing down helps our body return to it's natural state of resiliency and resourcefulness. My go to's: lying down on my bed, putting on music, dancing, going for a quick walk, taking a shower, getting out in nature and hugging my partner and cats.
2. Reading emails and texts slowly
and with my full attention. No speed reading!
3. Asking questions
to understand the whole picture, before speaking. Seeking first to
understand (cliches are cliches because they are so true) before judging, deciding or jumping in.
4. Trying to assume the BEST case scenario first
This puts me into a receptive, loving space (where magical things can actually happen!) It doesn't mean that I'm naive or will step over anything I need to address. But it does mean that I'm in a more receptive place – for the actual reality of what is being said, and a solution.
5. Assuming the person is on my side, is a good person, and/or has had a stressful day
(in that case, extra compassion and kindness from me would actually hugely help them), as it relates to the situation. I remember a mentor once said, "if you get asked a question that seems like someone is attacking you, assume that they are a GOOD person just asking questions, seeking to understand – and respond from that place.
6. Breathing
Deeply. A few times. Then I respond.
7. Being Curious
I learned this from a Somatic (body focused) Coach who was all about being curious about everything, rather than making an immediate judgment or decision. (I'm still working on this one as I'm type A and tend to make decisions and judgements quickly, rather than being curious 😃 ) However when I do it, it works.
8. Keeping my vibration high
Music, dance, exercise, getting outside, pets, connection with my partner, contribution, gratitude are all things that help keep my vibration high and counter-act negativity. They help me assume the best scenario, because I'm happy, not maxed out. The happier I am, the more naturally assume all is good around me. It all, ALL starts with us.
9. Self-Care
For me, that means quiet time on my own, puttering, shopping at Lululemon (don't ask me why, but it soothes my soul), making raw food etc. Because, when we're sourced, everything works better. Oxygen mask on first. Yes, that massage is always necessary.
10. Addressing my own worries, procrastination and personal challenges
so that I'm not projecting my frustrations on someone else (how many times has the poor bank call center rep borne the brunt of my wrath simply b/c I'm frustrated about additional things).
11. Checking in on my feelings
and not judging myself for feeling the way I do. What am I feeling right now? I'm feeling irritated? That's ok. I'm feeling angry and frustrated? Why is that? Oh, because of "xyz" and it's okay. This is one of the most therapeutic things we can do – NAME the feeling, ask why we're feeling that way and tell ourselves it's okay to feel that way. Usually the feeling dissipates, or at least lessens because I've allowed it.
Of course, we can, and should, always remove ourselves from situations and environments that are causing us unnecessary stress or harm. We should speak up and out about what we feel strongly.
But there are times in life that simply are more stressful, situations I don't want to remove myself from and worldwide events that keep happening, whether I want them to or not. And even when I need to speak up and speak strongly, I can do it from a grounded place of love and strength, not heated anger and frustration.
Finding soulful strategies for those moments, that help us feel sourced, strong and loving, not only help our health, vibration and how we feel, but it also allows for more magic to happen in any given moment. And it makes us feel GOOD – who doesn't want to feel grounded, strong, loving, clear and calm, and able to respond to life and others in that way?
- Can you relate? Have you experienced this yourself? Have you been more irritable lately, assuming the worst, and jumping to conclusions?
- When do you assume? Are there patterns for you?
- What strategies work for you?

Love, love, love,
PS I pulled this from some old notes on a book I love – all 4 points are such great reminders and put the body into a non-resistant, more loving state just by reading them, don't you think?

14 Favorite Apps For Business + Lifestyle: Part 1
I've been a self-employed entrepreneur since the age of 27, so one of the questions I get asked all the time is "what do you use in your business to stay organized?" or "how do you keep your personal + business life separate?"
The truth is, I love my work so much that personal and business tend to mix. Don't get me wrong, I definitely take time off and in order to not get overwhelmed or bogged down, I am really strict about self-care, exercise, and some down time/being in nature.
But, I do have some apps and programs that make my personal and business life much more streamlined and simplified. Check out the video where I show you the first 7 of my favorite apps, and then I'll share the rest in the next blog; so stay tuned.

Dance To Create A Life You Love
"We should consider every day lost on which we have not danced at least once.
― Friedrich Nietzsche
Create A Life You Love™ is all about intentional life design and co-creating with the universe in the areas of:
- Purpose
- Health + Wellness
- Career / Business + Money
- Passions + Creativity
- Relationships
- Personal Development
- Lifestyle + Adventure
- Spirituality
So what's Dance got to do with intentional life design??
Well, one of the keys to manifesting — in addition to clarity + action — is being in a state of non-resistance / love, so that YOU are not the one blocking the flow of what you want.
So that YOU are not the obstacle.
Quick Review: Intention + Attention + No Tension* (i.e. Clarity + Action + Non-resistance/Love) = Easeful Manifesting. For my video that more thoroughly explains The Power of Non-Resistance/ Love, click here.
What are some of the easiest ways to get into a state of Non-Resistance/Love?
Feeling Joy. Being Happy. Feeling Alive. And besides some of my other favorite ways of feeling joy right now (gratitude, loving connection and petting CATS :)) dance is one of the quickest ways to get happy. And to feel utterly amazing about yourself, life and everyone around you – which just helps everything work.
That's why Create A Life You Love™ has Dance at the core – because Dance has the ability to shift our state so quickly AND to increase the speed of manifesting.
3 Ways Dance Increases the Speed of Manifesting
1. Dance Instantly Raises Your Vibration
Moving your body, breathing more fully, dancing to great music, connecting with others on the dance floor – there is almost nothing that can shift you so quickly, into an open-hearted, happy state. When you hear a song you love on the radio or grocery store or dance class, your body can't help but want to move – it puts a smile on your face and through every cell. One of the best ways to shift a bad mood, is simply to dance – you just can't feel negative when you hear a song like this and let your body get up and dance to it.
Try it right now. Click here and see if you just want to get up and dance :)
2. Dance Connects You To Your Essence
"To Dance is to be out of yourself. Larger, more beautiful, more powerful." ~Agnes De Mille
The closer we can get to our essence – who we really are – the more authentic, real and self-expressed we feel. And when we do anything from our essence, from the center of who we really are, the universe responds. It wants us be fully ourselves. And it feels so good when we allow ourselves to really be who are we — and to be seen for who we really are.
It's no mistake that I met my partner at Ecstatic Dance. It's no mistake that that 80% of my clients and coaches have come from my dance classes or have been a connection from someone who came to my dance classes, workshops or retreats.
Our true essence – the most joyful, open to possibility in life, powerful, sensual, embodied, vibrant, loving and connective part of us – comes out in dance. This helps you feel GREAT in the moment, but you also literally become a magnet for what you want in relationships, business and life – because energetically you are being the most real and true you.
3. Dance Helps You Stop Trying To Be Perfect
Of course, there are beautiful kinds of dance that require exactness, such ballet and performing. However for this example, I'm
referring to dances that anyone can do and that really encourage you to let go and move from your heart instead of your head: SexyFit™ Dance, Free Dance, Zumba, Ecstatic Dance, NIA, Brazilian Zouk and just madly dancing in your living room :) They're not about perfection. They're about how it FEELS rather than how it LOOKS. They're about having fun, expressing yourself, letting go and feeling connected to your dance partner.
And this has a direct impact on how we live our lives.
Why is this important? Our life improves 1000x's over when we stop caring what people think. When we stop putting more value on how we look to others, rather than how we feel to ourselves. When we stop living how others think we should live our lives. If this is all dance did for anyone, it would be enough.
Dancing from your heart helps you forget about looking good and instead focuses you on just having fun in and with your own body. Ironically, this makes you an even better dancer. I bring free dance into every dance session I teach as it's the quickest way to face your fears, lose your inhibitions and find your own essence and style. It's often the hardest thing for people to do in a dance class initially, and then their favorite part of the class.
And in the same way, manifestation requires that you let go. Yes, you get very clear on what you want and take action, but skillful manifestation requires not being attached to HOW it looks or HOW it comes to you.
Skillful manifesting also puts priority on feeling good along the journey. "The journey has to feel like the destination you want" ~ Abraham Hicks. The is exactly the feeling you experience when you let go and enjoy dancing – specifically when you're not focused on perfection or "looking good".
Dance has been one of the most important things in my life for:
1. Feeling joy now + raising my vibration
2. Feeling self-expressed, in my essence and who I truly am
3. Letting go of the idea that I need to be perfect to be loved, respected or valued
4. Focusing on having fun and enjoying the moment/journey
5. Learning that how I FEEL is much more important than how it LOOKS
6. Meeting my partner :)
7. Growing my business, client base and brand
8. Living my life for me, not for other people
9. Feeling the Fear & Doing It Anyways
10. Creating + Living A Life I Love
Dance teaches us so many lessons about life and manifesting – and those lessons naturally becomes part of our being. Your muscle memory gets stronger every time you dance, you have more fun, are more relaxed, more yourself – and you've done it all through something that is pleasureful, embodied and something we've done since the beginning of time.
Intentionally creating and living a life we love is one of the most important things we can do. And Dance makes it 100x's more easy and enjoyable.
Over to you – I would LOVE to hear from you. Your comments always inspire me and help others:
- Why do YOU dance?
- What has dance done for you? How has it helped you in your life?

PS We're headed to Australia for 3 months of studying Brazilian Zouk with 2 teachers I've wanted to learn with for ages. I'm so, so excited about this as it's been on my CALYL – Do The Crazy Thing List for 2 years! Then we'll be back in Bali in March and I'll be teaching SexyFit™ Dance + Brazilian Zouk and of course always, Create A Life You Love™. Then we're off to Thailand for our Activating Grace – A Dance, Sound Healing, Breathwork + Life Coaching Retreat in June.
I hope to dance with you somewhere in the world in the next 6 months!

The State Of Non-Resistance + The Power Of Love
Hello Beautiful Friends!
Thank you so much for all of your comments in last week's video on my blog and YouTube (watch: "How To Shake A Bad Mood").
When we are in stressful or frustrating situations, we tend to become really resistant to EVERYTHING in life. Thus, making manifesting, creating, and living the life we want to seem like it's not working or that it's more difficult than it should be. So, we need to consciously practice being in a state of non-resistance. And then take it one step further, and be in a loving state.
This week's video blog is really an explanation in response to all of those questions into 1 solution or strategy to try. It's a little longer this week, but really worth your time (I hope!).
How do you know if you are in a resistant state?
1. If things aren't flowing
2. If you're irritable, tense, mad at different people
3. If you're not happy
Today, I'm talking to you about my personal experiences and ways I've put this strategy into practice, and then, what happens when you do. It's truly amazing because when we are able to shift inside – shift our mood, vibration, and energy – magic happens.Read More
