I intended to write this post about results. It has been a little more than a year since I started this public journal of self-awareness and self-growth and I guess I was feeling the need for validation of my efforts and my time. Like most of us, I am results oriented. How could we not […]

Only in Savannah
March 28th, 2012 
LeeAnn Savannah is truly an amazing city. I have lived a number of places – my hometown of Ann Arbor, Michigan; McLean, Virginia/DC area (twice); Austin, Texas; and Philadelphia (and its suburbs). All very interesting and unique places. If you get involved in a vehicular accident during a road trip, be sure to protect your rights […]

7 Comments »My Hair Pulls
March 16th, 2012 LeeAnn My Irish grandmother had very unusual expressions. One of my favorites was how when she was grumpy she would say that her hair pulled. When I asked her to explain it once, she said “doesn’t it make you grumpy when someone pulls your hair?” The thought of someone pulling my hair is pretty descriptive to […]
Gossip
March 13th, 2012 LeeAnn One of the goals I have set in my self-awareness and growth journey has been to deepen and strengthen the relationships in my life – with my spouse, my family and my friends. Especially with regard to my friendships, I identified gossip as something that can weaken, not strengthen, the bond. I set out to change my habits, […]
Happy Friday!
March 9th, 2012 LeeAnn Happy Friday everyone! Here are five things that are making me happy this Friday: 1. The support of my husband; 2. That I am able to help my parents in a time of need; 3. Friends, old and new, with whom I have deep and meaningful connections; 4. That the full moon has passed and maybe […]
Follow your Heart
March 2nd, 2012 LeeAnn This has been an exhausting week for me. It started out with my father having surgery. Seeing someone whom I love so much and who has been such a strong presence in my life vulnerable and impaired is hard for me. It makes me think about a lot of things – and makes it a […]
Choosing Happiness
February 21st, 2012 LeeAnn I have been fortunate to have a lot of happiness in my life. As I have aged though, I have gone through struggles. I believe most of us have. There have been times during those difficult periods when I succumbed to the unhappiness. I wallowed in it; I was not always nice (to myself or others); […]
Random Fun
February 14th, 2012 LeeAnn There is a trend going around right now, among bloggers, which involves having to list random things about yourself and answer questions. You are then supposed to tag other bloggers so that they have to do the same thing. The one that I have gotten tagged with most often involves listing eleven things about yourself and then tagging […]
Breaking Through
February 3rd, 2012 LeeAnn Last weekend I attended a “BreakThrough Weekend” at my yoga studio (Savannah Power Yoga, or “SPY”). The weekend was led by Mark White, who is a nationally renowned yoga teacher and speaker. We started Friday night and went through Sunday. Our time was divided between asana (the physical practice), meditation and inquiry. I had intended to […]

January 31st, 2012 LeeAnn There are many healthy living bloggers who daily document what they eat. I love to surf those sites at night, looking for new ideas for dinner. I could never blog consistently about my own daily diet as the amount of repetition is extremely high. However, I often get questions, being a vegetarian, about what and how much […]
