A Few of Our Favorite Things!

Have you ever scratched your head over why we all seem to resonate with "My Favorite Things" as a winter holiday song? It hit us one day - the things we adore in life are often the things that bring us a whirlwind of joy, offer a warm blanket of comfort, and knit a tight-knit sense of belonging around us. They're our little beacons of inspiration or motivation, helping us navigate where to pour our energy.

When we spill the beans about our favorite things to others, something magical happens. We weave connections, knit together a tapestry of community, and create a cozy corner of the world that feels like home. It's like drawing a roadmap of who we are, what invigorates our passions, and creates a space where those who resonate with the same things find a comfy nook to nestle into.

Now, picture all of this stirred up with the heavenly strains of Julie Andrew’s voice - voila, you have a pitch-perfect, relatable song that's got a dash of the divine. With this in mind, we’ve put together a little compilation of some things we can’t get enough of. Here's hoping they spark a little light on your pathway to wellness!

  • Atomic Habits

    BY JAMES CLEAR

    “Practice makes permanent”. “The only consistent life is consistency” “When you make it a habit, change becomes real”.

    Remember reading these in your 1st grade classroom? Same! I also remember not really feeling like I had any clear understanding of how I could tangibly build up my “habitual behaviors” to make my life easier. Enter James Clear. This book goes above and beyond in terms of practical tips and advice for restructuring your thinking around making major life changes.

  • School of Greatness

    HOSTED BY LEWIS HOWES

    Full disclosure: I have a REALLY hard time with podcasts. I’ve never been a great auditory learner, and somehow, no matter the genre, when I start listening to a podcast, I end up wondering why people dress their dogs up for Halloween. One thought drifts to the next and so on and so on… until I came across Lewis Howes podcast School of Greatness. Something about the guests he speaks with, the genuine desire to learn and explain new concepts just PULLS me in. I love to start one at the beginning of a workout and use it as a tool to pushing myself through that last rep. The best part? There are over 1000s episodes currently available, and new ones releasing each week. Give it a listen - and PLEASE, share your favorites with me!

  • The Untethered Soul

    BY MICHAEL A. SINGER

    I remember the first time I picked up Untethered Soul - A close friend was reading it and asked if I’d heard of it. I immediately came back with “ eeeeh, I don’t do well with the self-help thing”. He said “No no, this is so much more than self help”, and handed me his copy. It sat on my shelf for 3 years. Down the road, in some bookshelf cleanout, I picked it up again. I have a deep core belief that we find books when we need them most - and I most definitely needed Untethered Soul. Michael Singer has perfected this approachable guide to releasing yourself from deep ego and achieving a new level of self-awareness. To know me is to know that my favorite quote is “awareness is KEY!” - so reading Michael’s words made me feel like I had found a new best friend in book form. I could go on and on about Untethered Soul, but ultimately, I hope this tiny intro encourages you pick it up yourself - maybe even pass it along to a friend.
