Many social norms have changed in 2021, social media and how we value the connections found there is different now. Maybe it is in your world also?
Searching for the Wild Child
I grew up playing in the Finnish woodlands since I was five or six years old. Scents of spring-fresh fir, summer-warmed moss and autumn-soaked leaves permeated my senses, my very being. A wild child of the forest I was, free to explore while learning to be self-reliant. And I always found my way home.
You Can Do This!
Art is very personal. It’s each person’s expression of something inside. We learn to trust our intuition and listen to our soul. The most important thing is that we step outside our comfort zones and try something new. The process of creation is what gives us the greatest benefit.
Can You Overwork Your Skin?
Overworking your skin? Yes, it can be done! Using too many products too frequently and/or too enthusiastically can overwork your skin, leaving it looking and feeling worse instead of better.
Pay Attention
“That’s right,” Grandma repeated. “Pay attention.” She paused and leaned forward. “When you look, really look. Don’t just glance. What do you see? What do you hear? Take it all in and let it touch your heart. Then you will feel all the beauty.”

Every person who comes into our lives has a lesson for us. There are those who teach us, those who hurt us, those who took us for granted, those who remind us, those who encourage us, and those who love us. You didn’t meet any of them by chance. You met them for the lesson.

Cybersecurity & Your Business
Globally, cyberattacks are increasing daily. Hackers target vulnerable organizations and individuals with the primary goal of stealing your personal and company data for financial gain, wreaking havoc on your business’s reputation, and causing legal issues.
Protect Your Mental and Emotional Health
When we think of getting and being healthy, we typically think of physical aspects. We think of losing weight, gaining muscle, and looking athletic. What most of us fail to remember is that our mental health is as important as our physical health.
Maria’s Message
If I must choose someone to love over and over, I will choose me. Choosing me will take away the pressure on others to love me back, to be grateful for me. Choosing me will make me wake up in the morning, looking forward to being with me. To experience life together.
