By Peggy Lindsey For many women, aloneness is a negative state of being. Yet, choosing to spend time with yourself has tremendous emotional benefits, especially when handling negative emotions and experiences. These are crucial moments when we need solitude to reflect and recharge ourselves. When facing difficult circumstances with feelings of discomfort rumbling inside, it is essential to separate ourselves from others for a little while. When we embrace the
By Peggy LindseyGrowing up we were encouraged to seek out role models who we could imitate as we discovered our own talents. However, this continued even into adulthood as people strive to mirror the success and fame of those who have “made it” in the world. Eager to mimic others, we put on a mask of disguise, hiding our true identity. Yet none of us were created to be the
By Peggy LindseyNearly 8 in 10 Americans believe in these heavenly beings! In a recent study, 77% of adults believe in the existence of angels, while 30% more women do than men. Angels are spiritual beings created by God, whose mission is to communicate messages, give direction, offer comfort, and protect humankind.

By Peggy Lindsey There is a deeper form of self-care, and it takes a lot of courage if one is willing to dive in. It is about creating a life you are in love with.

By Peggy Lindsey Drama is so prevalent in our world, and it isn’t very hard to find. It is unhealthy. Arguing and fighting actually create disease! The good news is you can choose something different! Begin re-evaluating your relationships. Is it becoming more uncomfortable to stay with people, even when you have known them for years? Look closely. Are there individuals in your life who dump their negativity on you
By Peggy Lindsey From the time we are small we are taught to give of ourselves, that we shouldn’t be selfish, and that the needs of others outweigh our own. Although this allowed each of us to understand that the world did not revolve around us, it also taught us to never place ourselves at the top of our priority list. This is especially true for most women. They give
By Peggy Lindsey It hits when you least expect it. Everything is moving along nicely, yet you never see the brick wall fast approaching! Our immediate response is disbelief followed quickly by panic or even fear. A million questions flood your thoughts as you try to make sense of what just happened . . . and the most agonizing one of all . . . “Why?” What do you do
By Peggy LindseyWho doesn’t like seeing their days go exactly as planned? Yet, every once in a while, it seems as if the moment you step out of bed, everything goes topsy-turvy!

The needs of others rank high on our lists, and we do whatever we can to ensure those needs are met. We offer no hesitation, because it is meaningful for us to give of ourselves to others, and most of
Let go and trust! Not always the easy path. By Peggy LindseyI believe we co-create our lives. At times we expect to know where we are going, only to find we truly don’t! I tend to feel safe and secure when my game plan is drawn up, the road map laid out, and the compass pointed in a set direction. But life doesn’t always work that way! A few months
Healing relationships begins with communication. By Peggy LindseyQuality Relationships are a person’s greatest joy. Time spent with those we love makes everything else secondary.
