Disneyland just cancelled their annual pass program. Why do I feel empty when I should be screaming?

I have lost track of how many years I had an annual pass to Disneyland, but I know I’ve visited the parks over 200 times. I had my first date there, formed my best friendships, and recovered from whatever the world was throwing at me. …

Meditation Exercises for People Who Hate Meditation

Stressed? Anxious? Feel like the world is falling apart? Over years of expressing displeasure about my anxiety level, every therapist, mindfulness coach, friend, colleague, and listener off the street has jumped to tell me that meditation is the best solution. But I hate meditation. Ever since my first college course…

Living My 6-Year-Old Self’s Dream Hawaiian Vacation

I’m on a plane from Hawaii to Japan. Normally, a trip to Japan would have Daniel and I dancing on the wings of the plane. But not today. Because Hawaii was Heaven. Sort of. It was actually kind of cold, and REALLY windy, and generally not the best swimming weather. …
