Flipping the Script on Unwanted Thoughts

This week while I was in the bathroom (of all places) at my day job, I began to receive insights. I actually receive a lot of insights in bathrooms, and the one at my office is a private bathroom that’s completely tiled from the floor to the walls, which I’m pretty sure creates a conducive space for thinking. While in there, I began to recognize an unwanted thought scenario play out in my mind where I was arguing with someone over something work related. It was an unwanted thought scenario,…

Joshua Tree National Park—Here’s What You Need to Know

Living in Southern California, Joshua Tree National Park had been on my radar for a while. I would come across people every now and then who had been there and always recommended it. The last time this happened I was inside a coffee shop and the barista working behind the counter whipped out his cell phone and began showing me pictures of his recent trip to Joshua Tree.

Mammoth Lakes–Nature’s Playground

The Calling I was feeling drawn to go some place where I could be surrounded by trees…lots and lots of trees, and in particular, pines. To be in that specific kind of natural arena, where I could walk through the woods, gaze up at the endless trees overhead, and hear the sounds of the natural world—the kind that can best be heard in the presence of vast open nature. I wanted to take in the woodsy smells of the Earth, trees, and plants, and breathe in fresh mountain air. I had…
