JOY DAY 2020 – Why We Cried and Danced For JOY

Well, what can I say? I’m literally buzzing! I’m beaming from ear to ear and my heart is filled with love and JOY realizing the impact JOY DAY 2020 had on so many. The feedback has been “amazing!” Many noted celebrating the “real and authentic” conversations. Some were brought to tears of JOY while others were inspired to get up and dance. My favorite quote of the event: “I can choose JOY at any moment. JOY doesn’t have to be attached to my circumstances; it doesn’t have to b

Is Gratitude “The Secret Sauce” to JOY?

What I’m about to share isn’t easy for me to admit. There are certain habits in life we would rather not talk about and this is one of them. I could bury the truth about this and simply pretend that, what actually can be difficult for me, is something that comes easily - but it doesn’t - or at least, it didn’t. So here it is: Oh before you keep reading please know you can now watch Hanni share her thoughts on this topic on our YouTube Channel too or just keep reading… Up unti

Keeping Your Spirits High in a Crisis: 5 Things to Do Now

“When a storm is coming, all other birds seek shelter. The eagle alone avoids the storm by flying above it. So, in the storms of life, may your heart be like an eagle's and soar above.” - Anonymous The entire world is in an unprecedented time with the coronavirus (COVID-19). Borders are closed, events of all kinds are cancelled, schools and churches are closed, and restaurants and shops are empty. The impact on your life is deeply felt.

5 Proven Ways to Get Out of Your Rut

A good friend of mine was recently in a rut. Everything from her dating life, to work, to health issues, to family relationships was a source of frustration. She exclaimed “Why can’t I get rid of this black cloud. It seems to be following me everywhere.” Her irritation is totally understandable. Who wouldn’t want to just “throw in the towel”? For a moment I put myself in the hole with her, and joined in her misery. But, I know from personal experience that staying in that hol

Could Giving Actually Be Good for Your Health?

“We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.” - Winston Churchill So, we all have that endless list of to-do’s around the Holidays…it starts well before Thanksgiving and doesn’t seem to end until after the Holidays. Tree trimming, food ordering/preparing and oh the dreaded gift shopping. Sometimes we even wonder if it’s all worth it and whether we’re just caught up in the materialism and consumerism of society…just sheep following the herd. Wel

Moving From Wanting To Change To Actually Doing It

“Embrace the Life That’s Calling You” – Oprah Winfrey Pause for a moment and think back to the last time you dealt with a challenge and felt stuck. What was it? Did you look at it from all angles but yet could not find a good solution? Or you thought you had all the right answers but then talked to someone else, someone with a fresh set of eyes, who gave you an idea that didn’t even cross your mind? I used to think I had all the answers. Yes, I know it was quite naïve and, l

Do you know what you want out of life?

There’s only one way to find out and the holidays are the best time to do this. You’re excited about the holidays. Finally, the time of year when not only you get a much needed break from work, but also the rest of the world shuts down. If you’re in luck email correspondence will seize for the 7 days between Christmas Eve and New Year’s Day. YES! We can all agree that this break allows us to spend quality time with our family and friends, BUT I encourage you to also make it a

3 Ways to make your Thanksgiving truly meaningful

I love Thanksgiving! As many of you know I was born and raised in Austria and, while we do celebrate harvesting season around this time of the year, we don’t quite have such an ingrained tradition as the day of Thanksgiving. With my entire family still living in Austria, I have been fortunate to be welcomed into so many people’s homes on this very special day over the last 17 years, experiencing not just the best foods but their big hearts opening their doors to someone they

If I could tell the world just one thing

Those words are the start of the song “Hands” by Jewel and the first words that came to my mind when I thought about today’s blog post. Because really, if I could tell the world just one thing, it would be about the benefits of gratitude. Being grateful for what we have and being optimistic about what lies ahead is not just spiritual mumble-jumble but are real superfoods for your mind, body, and soul. There is a growing body of research that establishes gratitude as a practic
