The 21-Day Challenge: A New Way To Practice Our Values

Practice means to perform, over and over again in the face of all obstacles, some act of vision, of faith, of desire. Practice is a means of inviting the perfection desired.

The 21-Day Challenge: A New Way To Practice Our Values

Many of us seem to recognize the importance of making personal changes in our lives, and yet we struggle to put them into practice.

But thankfully, it's not impossible. So, how do we go about trading in old, unwholesome habits for new, positive ones, in a sustainable way? A special kind of three-week challenge just might hold the answer! { read more }

A Simple Act of Kindness

History has shown us time and time again that you don't have to know someone to love them with all your heart.

- Shannon L. Alder -

A Simple Act of Kindness

As children, we're taught to be wary of strangers. To walk away, even when we know someone might need our help. Sadly, the world today seems to elicit this type of fear. And, as parents, we continuously struggle to help our children find the balance between staying safe and helping others. Read this inspiring story to learn how one mother's day of errands quickly became a teaching moment for her and her sons. { read more }

Be The Change

This world can be changed through direct acts of kindness. Take a moment today to reach out to someone in need.
