A common goal comes back to the simple message. Women want to feel beautiful. We share the belief of empowering women from the inside out. Riane has great style and understands how to help women feel beautiful. She also understands the intention and meaning behind The Jewelry Project. Women supporting women.

What could be more precious than your health and well-being? Why do we find it so difficult to carve out time for ourselves, even when we know that by doing so we will be happier and healthier and everyone around us will reap the benefits? What if you held the tools to live in a way that transformed daily stress into peaceful moments, creative insight and purpose-felt action? You hold the power to live with authentic health and happiness.

Join us this Friday October 21st at the beautiful Jung Center in Houston. In this 1.5 hour workshop you will learn how the tools of gentle yoga, guided meditation, and affirmation “work” can help you create the life your soul is asking you to live. Allow your “work” to be a vehicle that transforms daily stress and living into creativity and purpose-felt action.

Our workshop coordinator, Allie, created a video to teach children about yoga.

Driving across west Texas, the rain finally stops and the sun comes out, brightening up an enormous Texas blue sky. The familiar ten hour drive gives the perspective of distance and as the time and landscape change I begin to let go of our  home in Texas and transition to our simple adobe in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

It is really not surprising to find out that any guy near Baton Rouge has been in his boat looking to rescue someone. The media coined these men the Cajun Navy, and this Southern state knows the word kindness as a verb. I am here to help, do you know anyone who needs to be rescued? What can I do for you?

“I can do things you cannot, you can do things I cannot;
Together we can do great things.”

About fourteen years ago, we drove through a tiny strip of a town chiseled out of red rocks in the middle of no where, and vowed we would return one day. Last week our family took that trip back to Moab, UT.

GILT City Serendipity: Introducing guest blogger, Holly Crawford

And that moment’s click brought me to you now. My editor liked the pitch and assigned me the article, so I had the good fortune to sit down with Elizabeth for coffee one morning. Little did I know it would turn into lunchtime as hours elapsed like minutes, and it would be the start of a special friendship. They say there are no accidents, and I’m a believer. She came into my life at the exact right moment with her calming voice and valuable perspective on everything from affirmations to meditation.

This post is in honor of my dad. Today marks his birthday and the one year anniversary of his death. Besides being a good dad and a professor who loved to teach, he was passionate for books and reading. He passed this love on to many, me included. This image is of some books from his library.

She recently created some magic in her life and we thought it would be fun to share this experience with our readers. Her manifestation of a dream she held for herself is a testimony.

The Soul Space Retreat was the universe’s way of bringing a magical group of women together. We were meant to connect and help each other relax, let go, share, & dream. Allowing our body & mind to create soul space.

Three days of yoga, meditation, & soul work at the enchanting Travaasa Resort in Austin, Texas. Our group ranged from artists, designers, business women, mothers, & daughters from all over the world. Including local Austinites, Houstonians, Californians, and friendly foreigners from Canada & London.

My dad went to heaven today. A poem we both love felt appropriate to share.

The first night in Africa we stayed in a hotel in Nairobi as we arrived too late (3 of 4 flights) to continue traveling on. That night my dream was vivid. I woke up thinking was this for real or was I dreaming?

In my dream I met a male lion in the garden.

A recent summer’s adventure began in a little thatched roof surf shop nestled into powder white sand next to the turquoise Caribbean sea.

She shook her head in disbelief as her blue eyes became wider and misty with tears. Then her face became calm as she giggled to herself. She went on to tell me her story.

The Jewelry Project has a life all of it’s own. When the idea of creating “jewelry with meaning” began, in all honesty I half-heartedly started the project.
