The Well Traveler: Healthy and Well on the Move!
General Well Travel Tips – Part One

Wellness of the Heart – Part Two: Unconditional Friendship With One’s Self
How can we hold our own hearts in an embrace that completely lacks judgment and criticism? How can we hold ourselves tenderly with compassion when we stumble, fail, and fall short of perfection? Can we change our default setting from what-is-wrong with us, to what-is-right?
There seems to be a cultural admonition to be self-critical, like we would…
Wellness of The Heart
