your daily rock : get perspective
When I was 16, I went on a plane ride for the very first time. Everything and everyone got really, really tiny as the plane ascended. As simplistic as it sounds, it was a life-changing moment for me. I had never had that kind of perspective. And, of course, that …
your daily rock : remember.
Remember. Remember that you are beautiful. Remember that your wisdom is special. Remember that you are powerful beyond measure. Remember that you have options. Remember that you are choosing the story of your life every day: tell the one you want to live into. Remember that. Love, …
your daily rock : sing out!
I’m not a singer by any means. But it feels so good to let loose. So when Tess and I go on errands in the car, we sing. Loudly. Sometimes it is a rousing and endless rendition of “She’ll be coming ’round the mountain when she comes” in which we …

your daily rock : open the cage door
You, my friend, have the only key. Love, (These beautifully painted rocks are created by Kim Mailhot, aka The Rock Fairy.
your daily rock : show compassion
Compassion, like love, is unconditional. Otherwise, it’s not compassion, is it? Showing compassion for people who argue with you, who spout awful things on Facebook, who hurt you–that’s the real work. Showing compassion for people who agree with you, who post beautiful things on Facebook, and who would never hurt …
your daily rock : stay grounded
Get barefoot. Go stand in the grass for a few minutes today. Don’t underestimate the power of nature to ground you. Love, (These beautifully painted rocks are created by Kim Mailhot, aka The Rock Fairy.
