I’ve always been into self exploration and personal growth. I devour self-help books, begin everyday by writing in my Five Minute Journal and follow it up with 10-20 minutes of meditation.

I am a firm believer in the law of attraction, manifesting your dream life and shifting your focus toward gratitude. I guess you could say I am a bit of a spirit junkie (I will share more in future posts if you guys are interested, just let me know)!

Speaking of focusing on life’s little blessings, I was inspired by my internet friend & blogger Molly Fay, to share what makes me happy.
