More Wild and Precious!

Oh my goodness - it's December - last month of 2014! You want to embrace life fully. You want to do and be all those amazing things you see online, on TV, in books or magazines, in the inspirational quotes in your friends' news feeds.

But life sometimes gets in the way. Sometimes you're just tired. Maybe you don't like your job. Or you struggle with kids or relatives. Or you're scared to take that big step and make a major change.

I totally get it. I've made it my top priority to live my wild and precious life, and I still get scared, overwhelmed and tired.

I put together a simple list of what I've been doing to live more wild and precious, and none of it requires holiday shopping! If you need a break from all the emails about sales and discounts that make you feel like you're missing out, click here for a spot of clarity and a reminder of what's truly important. Bonus!

What's inspiring me - Going solar and getting insulated!

As a green business owner with LIfeCity, I've made it a priority this year to make our 1800s home more energy-efficient. And it feels amazing to do it! We now have solar panels (through Joule Solar) and we're about to get our raised home's wood floors insulated, which is super-exciting because when it's cold out, our current floors are about ten degrees higher than the temperature outside, so that makes for a chilly house! We also have a new Nest thermostat - it's so smart it's like there's a person handling our heating and cooling all the time. We can adjust the temperature from our phones if we want- amazing!

If you really want to live green, you need to look at the energy efficiency of your dwelling. It's not glamorous and it takes some investment and work at the front end, but once it's done it's done and then you see big benefits quickly. So if you've been putting off going green in this area like we did, consider making it a priority. I am so looking forward to non-freezing floors! (Links are not affiliates - but I wish they were! )

Inspiration For Your Path - connecting with your soul, positivity that works, and prioritizing self-care.

I just finished reading The Untethered Soul,by Michael A. Singer. It's a wonderful manual for how to live a soul-centered life, and it's a great antidote to this time of year where you can feel pressured to focus instead on acquiring material items or getting the best deal. I recommend it if you're looking for support to see your life through the lens of your soul.
