By Sherry Ellingson Last month, I made a decision to intentionally slow down the pace of my daily life. For as long as I can remember, I have been someone who moves through life at TURBO speed. I rushed from one responsibility to the next, often layering projects, commitments, and expectations on top of each other without stopping to ask myself how I was really feeling. As I shared in my post, Coming Back From Burnout, I have been healing from burnout and becomi

Written by Sherry Ellingson Slow living with Sherry Ellingson Slow living and mindful living have attracted me for a long time. As someone who has always operated at turbo speed, I began fantasizing about a slower, more intentional life when I was a young mother.

by Sherry Ellingson sherryellingson.com I was at the gym in the locker room and I was talking to other women about what is happening in our world. Specifically about what is happening in Iran, the country my family and I moved away from in 1979 and about the situation with Venezuela.

by Sherry Ellingson I teach self care and self esteem in a lot of my classes and workshops because it's the core of how we operate with ourselves internally and with others. It's the base of our foundations; where we work, how we communicate, the extent of being successful in our jobs and careers, how we take care of homes and much more. Today we have a new moon in the sign of Sagittarius (the sign of expansion, travel, learning and teaching) the time to set new intentions a
