An ROI for Mindfulness?

My dear friend (we’ll call him Brad to protect his privacy) looked me right in the eye and said, “Harriet, I talk with CEOs every day, and they could care less if their staff is up all night and can’t sleep. They are not thinking about their employees’ stress.” I looked at Brad in amazement. […]

NO Cell Connection! What Now?!

“With 43% reporting high levels of daily stress, it’s no surprise that a wealth of employees feel like they’re on the edge of burnout, with some reports suggesting that up to 61% of U.S. professionals feel like they’re burning out at any moment in time. Those who feel tense or stressed out during the workday are more than […]

Where the Hell Have You Been Hiding?

When I was 12 years old, my teacher ushered our 7th grade class into the school auditorium for a Fall Concert Choir program. I will never forget sitting there on that hard, wooden chair listening to a choir for the very first time and thinking to myself, “I have to be up there!” A few […]

What Thoughts Are You Carrying?

The heaviest burdens that we carry are the thoughts in our head. Have you ever found yourself waking up in the morning and your mind is racing before you even check to see what time it is? Maybe it’s a worry, quickly followed by a to-do list? Or excitement for a special day–perhaps a graduation […]

Life Rarely Goes as Planned!

Maybe you were looking forward to spending some quality time with a friend, and a problem at work interrupted your time. Maybe you’ve planned your wedding for years to be outside, and then it rains. As a speaker, I spent the last five months looking forward to a presentation I was going to be giving […]

How to Handle Underperforming Employees?

OUCH. Honestly, I was shocked. I recently heard someone raise the question, “How do you handle underperforming employees?” Doesn’t this person know we’re in a mental health global pandemic? These are unprecedented times! As a nurse who has worked in healthcare in one way or another for over 30 years, I see it. And teaching […]

Mindful Parking…or Not?

A couple of years ago I met my girlfriend for lunch at a newly renovated restaurant. Word had already spread through the neighborhood that it was a wonderful spot–delicious food, nice atmosphere, good service.  The shopping center that housed the restaurant was under construction. There were many construction workers sharing the small parking lot with […]

Are you pushing too hard?

Are you pushing too hard?

“Pain is temporary. Pride is forever.” That’s what the voice-over says in this video of an injured Kerri Strug completing her famous vault at 1996 Olympics in Atlanta. I invite you to watch with the sound off, and just notice the look on Strug’s face. Do you push through at all costs to your health? […]

Hold On!

To steal a line from Bette Davis, “Fasten your seatbelts; it’s going to be a bumpy night.” We all know the sound that a rollercoaster makes as it slowly climbs up that steep incline. Click…click…click… Somehow, this is what the last year has felt like to me. Until last winter, we had never experienced a global pandemic […]

Our Lives Can Change in a Flash!

Our lives can change in a flash. In just one moment. Driving home from a morning swim at the YMCA, I always take a back road that winds through the woods. It’s a beautiful route but, if you hit it during rush hour, there’s a steady stream of cars heading to work. One morning last […]
