Five Ways To Take A Vacation Without Taking A Vacation


Last month Along The Purpose Path was about how to identify and stop the energy drains that leave you feeling exhausted and out of balance. I outlined how energy is one of your most valuable resources and invited you to start thinking about how to reserve more energy for yourself.

Now, I'd like to offer a suggestion on how to actually build energy and begin to create energy reserves.

One of my favorite ways to recharge my batteries is to take a vacation. Vacations traditionally are defined as a period of time devoted to pleasure, rest, or relaxation especially when there is suspension of school, or business activities.

Vacations are usually, unfortunately associated with travel and a commitment of time and money, making them not easily achievable without a lot of planning.
All a vacation is really is a break in your routine with the accompanying positive mental shift that helps you fully absorb and receive the benefits. The key to...

Getting The Most From Your Candles


I love burning candles and have them all around the house. Long ones, short ones, fat ones, thin ones, in a plethora of colours. I burn them in the evening when I'm relaxing; I burn them at mealtimes; and I burn them in the bathroom when I'm pampering myself. Any excuse to light a candle really.
But candles don't always fit the holder, and sometimes they burn down too far and the wax gets stuck! It's at times like this that candles aren't quite as much fun!
Here are some candle burning tips I've picked up through the years:
1.Cold candles will burn more slowly. Wrap them in foil or cling-film to prevent the wicks from absorbing moisture then pop them in the fridge for an hour.
2.When burning pillar candles, let them burn long enough each time to create a pool of wax that almost covers the diameter of the candle.

This will ensure that the candle burns evenly each time you light it. If it doesn't create a large enough pool you'll end up with a tunnel...

Fragranced Pillar Candles ? The Most Popular Candles Of All

Fragranced pillar candles are quite common in just about every room of the home. They are great centrepieces for mantles, dining room tables and coffee tables. Decorated with bows and flowers, fragranced pillar candles are easy to coordinate with any d?cor because they come in all sizes and colors. When you look at the choice of scents you can have in fragranced pillar candles, you can have a different scent in your home for every season of the year or for different occasions.
Of course you can also have non-fragranced candles if you just want to have the colored candles or you can even go with plain white candles.



Fragranced jar candles are also perfect for any occasion. When you want to put out the flame you just have to replace the top of the jar. You may need to buy a special candle lighter for jar candles because it is hard to get your hand down in the jar to light it once the candle burns down to a certain level. With fragranced pillar candles, you...

10 Simple Ways to Honor Your Uniqueness

One message we hear from the time we are children is that it is better to give than receive. It is best to be humble. It is best to not shine a light on ourselves. True, and not so true. We also need to recognize that until we honor ourselves with love and compassion that we will not be able to give fully to another, or shine the light on another nor will we truly understand humility.

These simply steps will take you on a path to honoring your uniqueness every day. Use them as a way to see how you are doing. Celebrate what is working, and choose to make adjustments where there is adjustment necessary. 1. Take time for quiet daily.

Yes, there is much that needs to get done. Once you maintain a habit of being quiet either to contemplate, pray, meditate you will be amazed how much more efficiently you will perform your tasks, duties and projects. 2.
