Do you walk into a filled closet and feel like you have nothing to wear? Do you shuffle through mounds of clothes you haven't worn in months to find something you want to wear? Does getting dressed in the morning leave you in a bad mood? Do you long for comfortable outfits that make you look and feel good (without costing a fortune)? Has your cosmetic drawer turned into a cosmetic closet? Are you buying cosmetics more quickly than you could ever use them? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then Brook Noel can relate! In this 2 week course, Brook shares the system she used to declutter and organize both clothing and cosmetics so they were a source of fulfillment instead of frustration. In this class you will: Work through all the clothes in your closet to uncover your personal style Create "master outfits" for all-occassions (work, recreation, home, etc.) Learn how to decide once and for all if something is worth keeping Learn how to shop smart, where to get the best deals, and what fabrics have the longest wear Streamline your cosmetics into "looks" (evening/day/warm/cool) 2 weeks - $29 -Click here to register Class Summary: Week One: In our first week together we begin by working through all the items in our closet and placing them into one of Brook's "From Fiasco to Fashion" categories. While working through this process we will also cover timeless fashion, how to uncover your personal style, and shopping secrets. Week Two: This week we inventory our clothes into master outfits. By week's end each clothing item will either have a home as part of a "favorite" outfit, or be inventoried as something that needs a companion (a skirt that needs a matching shirt) or be ready for donation. We also work through our cosmetics this week, purging the outdated and out-of-fashion and creating "looks" with the rest. 2 weeks - $29 -Click here to register Please allow 12 hours to receive your user name and login if you are new to our site.

We don't need to increase our goods nearly as much as we need to scale down our wants. Not wanting something is as good as possessing it. ~Donald Horban Good morning! How much time and energy do you spend trying to attain something, whether emotionally or physically, which you believe you need in order to be happier, more fulfilled or make life easier? Common examples of where we get caught up in the chase include: Believing we need someone's approval Believing the next planner will organize our lives (instead of organizing it ourselves) Believing that some better-than-botox cream will make us beautiful Believing that our child needs a specific brand item or toy to be happy Believing that we are responsible for fixing problems beyond our control Believing that we are responsible for someone else's happiness If I were to stockpile all the time and energy I have put into endeavors like these in the past, surely I could take the month of April off -- and maybe May, too. How freeing it can be to realize that maybe we don't need everything we think we do--instead, what we need to do is scale back on perceived needs. Your Turn: Create a list of things you have spent time and energy on that you felt you needed. What needs can you scale back on so that you can enjoy today more? Your affirmation: My energy and time are spent only on life's true needs.

You don't necessarily have anything more or different, but suddenly you actually see what is. And because you can see, you no longer take it for granted. You're just standing in your yard, but suddenly you realize, Oh, there's the first flower of spring struggling to emerge from the snow; Oh, there's a deer emerging from the scrub brush; Oh, there's the measuring cup you've been looking for that your daughter was using to make mud pies. It's just your ordinary old backyard, but suddenly you are filled with happiness, thankfulness and joy. ~excerpted from Attitudes of Gratitude, how to receive and give joy every day of your life, by M. J. Ryan Good morning! What are you grateful for? What little things bring a smile to your face? What ordinary occurrences make you deliriously happy? Take a moment to 're-discover' the everyday subtleties that make you happiest. What cute thing has your child done lately, who phoned after you had them on your mind... Did a late summer flower just bloom? Your turn: Today light up your thoughts by making an extra-long gratitude list. Keep a sheet of paper with you all day and try to write down at least 50 things by the end of the day. (Whenever negativity surfaces or life gets you down--this is one of the quickest cures.) Your affirmation: I am observant and grateful for life's many gifts.

To speak gratitude is courteous and pleasant, to enact gratitude is generous and noble, but to live gratitude is to touch Heaven. - Quote on the importance of gratitude by Johannes A. Gaertner Good morning! Yvette included this thoughtful note with her quote: I am grateful for the inspiration you send me each morning. You do a wonderful job with your writing. Thank you for helping me start my day with a smile. That is the first great thing that happens which helps lead to more great things throughout the day! Thank you Yvette, I am grateful for your kindness and taking the time to write to me. Yvette's note brought a smile to my face and warmth to my heart. The reason it touched me so is that Yvette goes beyond reading the message and lives the morning messages. With our hectic and crazy lives, it is so easy to read this little morning note and think, Wow, that's me. I should really do that. But several hours later we may have forgotten what we have read. Your turn: Think back to the morning messages that really resonated with you. Did you print a copy? Can you gather them together and read through them this morning? Keep using the Your Turn challenges to go beyond reading, and start living the changes that will improve your life. Your affirmation: When I discover a way to positively improve my life, I implement the idea and maintain it until it becomes a habit.

I live by this credo: Have a little laugh at life and look around you for happiness instead of sadness. Laughter had always brought me out of unhappy situations. Even in your darkest moment, you usually can find something to laugh about if you try hard enough. -- Red Skelton, 1913-1997, Comedian Good morning! We all have days that test our ability to remain upbeat and positive. We all have days where it seems every little thing is out to wear us down. Often these days come after several days or weeks of up time, where we are creating the life we desire. Some people view these days as the world saying, I told you so. They use these days as an excuse to let their dreams and hopes go. I think these days come for a different reason. I think these days are a great opportunity to improve ourselves. While I used to get down on these days too, I had to learn to treat them with the same respect that I did the good days. Surely, these days much have a purpose. When I approached these days with that attitude, I quickly uncovered their purpose. These days don't intend to bring a dark cloud to live at our doorstep. These days come to challenge us to see something new-- to remember how to laugh-- to remember what is good. These days ground us and challenge us to explore our core values for the simple and delightful daily rewards of life. The path of life is never smooth. These cloudy days will come and go. We can't hide from these days and wait for a better one. There simply isn't enough time in life to waste a single day. Your turn: When a cloudy day comes your way, embrace it. Use it as a catalyst to find something to laugh about or someone to laugh with. Turn back to life's simple joys-- a child's smile, a phone call, a serene walk. While what is going on externally can be sunny or cloudy, we control whether our reaction will be sunny or cloudy. Your affirmation: I used life's stormy days to strengthen my umbrella.

If you had a friend who talked to you like you sometimes talk to yourself, would you continue to hang around with that person? -- Rob Bremer, Speaker Good morning! As Debbie noted when she sent the quote, this is something we cover in-depth in the attitude class. A quick question for you this morning.... On a scale of 1 to 10... How would you rate yourself on this statement... I am a good friend. Most of us rate ourselves high, we pride ourselves on being reliable and supportive. Next question, on a scale of to 10, how would rate yourself on this statement, I am a good friend to myself. Many of us stumble on question two. We demand things of ourselves that we would not demand of others. We criticize ourselves with harsh words that we would never say to a friend. While we forgive our friends shortcomings, we belittle ourselves for our shortcomings. We build friends up, we knock ourselves down. How wonderfully our loves would change if we would treat ourselves with the same kindness, thoughtfulness, encouragement and forgiveness we show our friends. Your turn: Today, each time you have a thought directed toward yourself, ask-- is this a thought I would share with a friend in the same situation? If the answer is no, replace it with the type of kindness and encouragement you would show a friend. When we learn to be a better friend to ourselves, we in turn become a better friend to others. Your affirmation: I treat myself with kindness, respect and encouragement just as I would my best friend.

Sometimes you have to take the leap, and build your wings on the way down. Kobi Yamada Good morning! Have you ever had a hunch about something? You know, that gut feeling that has words or an action on the tip of your tongue, but you squelch it? Then days, weeks or months go by - and you realize the intuition you ignored was right? Maybe you had a reason to ignore it. Maybe everyone else disagreed with you and you couldn't find one fan of your idea or action. Maybe self-doubt got in the way - or fear - or anxiety. Whatever the reason, you ignored the hunch only to learn later, that hunch was there for good reason. Maybe the only thing more frustrating than not knowing an answer, is realizing we knew the answer, but didn't act on it. For whatever reason, we didn't listen to intuition's whisper. Kobi's quote reminds me that intuition always has a purpose, though sometimes we can't see it. But these heart messages should be heeded and well considered. Even without support, sometimes we have to Take the leap and build our wings on the way down. Your Turn: Is there anything in your life right now where you have that gut instinct about what to do next? Take a moment today and honor that intuition. Listen to it; don't squelch it. These moments of intuition are blessings about the directions we need to take in our lives. Your Affirmation: I honor, heed and consider each of my intuitions.
