Week 5– or is it 6? – of shelter at home. The world’s on lockdown. I’ve got it easy – I’m used to working at home, I’m not juggling a relationship and kids and homeschooling and, and and… I consider myself lucky. Lonely, but lucky. My yoga teachers have gone on line, so I do…
The world has changed dramatically. It feels like almost overnight, but I know for the business owners and managers struggling to make the hard decisions about whether or not they need to let people go, close facilities and restructure their businesses, these last two weeks feels like forever. So many, like people in any…
If you’re pretty “normal” you think 60,000 thoughts a day. 90% of those thoughts are the same thoughts you had yesterday and unless you work at it, 80% of those are most likely negative. In case you hadn’t noticed the world you live in can sometimes present itself as quite negative. So, at any…

I was teaching the Science of Happiness to a group of CEO’s and their spouses last week in Richmond Virginia at the beautiful Jefferson Hotel. Even though the purpose of the meeting was to teach couples how to use the tools of the science (and some that I’ve developed over the years) at home, the…
I just got back from a great trip to Arkansas. I worked with three different groups of execs, and it was truly the first time that I can say EVERYONE was open to the idea that deliberately creating happiness at work is a competitive and profitable strategy. I watched their faces. As leaders just…
I was sautéing zucchini and yellow squash the other night and realized that while I was doing it that I was giving myself a gift. I know, it sounds crazy, but I rather liked the idea. I give myself a gift when I buy clean fresh food and prepare it with love. It’s part of my…
