Did you know various cultures around the globe celebrate
The Spring Equinox with festivals, various rituals
and ceremonies?

What is The Spring Equinox?

The Spring Equinox, which occurred on March 20, 2025, marked the moment
when day and night are equal in length, signalling the official start of spring in the Northern Hemisphere.

Simple ways how we can celebrate The Spring Equinox:

  • Planting and gardening

  • Spring cleaning

  • De-cluttering and organizing

  • Clearing out old items for donation

  • Yoga and meditation

  • Lighting bonfires

  • Honouring the sun

  • Deep cleaning spaces and surfaces

  • Refreshing home décor

  • Reorganizing closets or drawers

I freakin’ love the idea of celebrating it - new beginnings — I’m all over it, 

Well, I’m actually late ‘all over it’ but that’s ok. It’s who I am. 🤷‍♀️

My Check list ✔✔️✔️

  • Spring Cleaning — Meh, no check.

  • Planting Seeds —- Heck no, no check.

  • De-cluttering ——- Semi baby mini check.

  • Way more fun stuff — See Below 😊


Because I am in my ‘me era’ I’m going to celebrate with the ‘me’ stuff first
and I invite you to join me:

Rise a little earlier, be outside a little longer, eat a little lighter and healthier, give a little more, think a little kinder, and love a little harder. 

Live in the moment—don’t let worry, anger, anxiety steal your day.
Let that shit go….LET THEM….let’s make this season OUR very best. 🌷

PS: This is a great time to incorporate a morning gratitude meditation practice.

Boho Beautiful Yoga: Guided Morning Meditation for Gratitude




A Glimpse Beyond with Paula Ross

Have you ever met someone and felt a sense of
familiarity, as if you’ve known them before?

What if that connection transcends this lifetime 
and reaches back into a past life?

It’s fascinating to consider the idea that our spirits travel alongside certain souls through various incarnations, intertwining our lives in profound ways.

In my journey of self-discovery, I use meditation as a powerful tool to delve into my past lives. Through this practice, I’ve discovered a range of extraordinary experiences; I’ve served as a mayor in a bustling western town, embraced the role of a shaman on the expansive prairies, and even faced the struggles of a poor woman washing clothes by a river. Each life has been an adventure, filled with lessons and insights that shape my current existence.

Past life regression isn’t just a fascinating journey—it’s a tool for healing.

By looking back, we can uncover the roots of present-day challenges. This exploration allows us to acknowledge traumas that may still affect us, understand irrational fears, or even affirm a sense of adventure waiting to be lived in the future.

“I wholeheartedly embrace past life regression as both a therapeutic practice and a way to celebrate the incredible tapestry of experiences that shape who we are today. 

If you’re curious about your own past lives, I encourage you to embark on this enlightening journey.

There’s a whole world of knowledge waiting for you to discover.”

Because the World Needs Kindness

April 9 is International Day of Pink 🌸

There is nothing more beautiful than being who you truly are—
even if your own mother calls you an ‘odd little thing’.

Wearing pink makes me feel youthful, playful, and feminine.
There's a quiet strength in this colour—own it, ladies! 💖

PS: Don’t just wear pink on Wednesday April 9, wear pink every
Wednesday because “On Wednesday’s we wear pink!”

Ever notice how dancing instantly
lifts your mood?

“I saw an instagram reel about someone who said we should dance a bit every day.”

“So I reached out to a couple of friend groups who I thought would be game and said, ‘let’s send each other songs that we love dancing to so that we are reminded that we, indeed, should dance each day.

Dance while getting supper ready, doing laundry, puttering, etc — just dance! Plus, it’s a fun way to discover new music.” 🎶

Divorced? Single parenting? Blended family a bit…much?

This is the book I desperately needed during life’s toughest moments—but when I couldn’t find it, I wrote it. Raw and unfiltered, it dives into the highs and lows, showing you how to weather life’s storms with grit, grace, and forgiveness. It’s honest, it’s real, and yes, it’s even funny—because sometimes, the hardest things in life deserve a good laugh too.

Because so much happens behind closed doors…


This is a book for everyone. Not just the Married, The Mother or the Divorced. It is a life lesson about drama, trauma, and love and laughs.

And mostly about the relationships we are blessed to have and how music is the score of our lives.
