Embracing Vulnerability: The Path To True Authenticity
| January 9, 2012 | Posted by Jenny Ann Fraser under Feast... |
It has been nearly a year since I first came across Brene Brown’s Ted speeches which opened my mind to thinking about vulnerability and wholehearted living. As always happens when new and valuable information comes to light, it becomes necessary to broaden one’s thinking resulting in a shift in world view. I had no awareness… …continue reading.
When Will We Be Enough?
| January 3, 2012 | Posted by Jenny Ann Fraser under Feast..., The Art of Kindness |
A few years ago, this prayer became my mantra. I wrote it out on index cards, decorated them with stickers and drawings and posted them all over my home. There was one above the kitchen sink, one on my bathroom mirror, it was the wallpaper on my computer and I carried the tiny book Heart Steps, where it can be found on page 31, everywhere I went. …continue reading.
Ushering in 2012 With Effy Wild and The Book of Days
| December 29, 2011 | Posted by Jenny Ann Fraser under Feast... |
2011 was for me, a year of massive transition as it is the year I left a 16 year career in the arts for a job as a receptionist in an office. This felt a lot more like moving backwards than it felt like moving forward. To say that it hasn’t been easy seems like… …continue reading.
The Smartest Woman I Know
| November 14, 2011 | Posted by Jenny Ann Fraser under Feast... |
One thing that I believe, is that we dont spend enough time in our lives honouring what we have, and what we have had in the past. When we shift our attention from the busyness of our lives and our personal struggles, (whatever they may be) to the many blessings of our world, we can… …continue reading.
Occupy Wall Street: What I Have Learned
| October 20, 2011 | Posted by Jenny Ann Fraser under Feast... |
I’ve been paying some attention lately to the Occupy Wall Street Movement and even attended the Winnipeg Occupy Wall Street Protest, though rather briefly. And yes, I could be heard at least once lamenting “why can’t we start a revolution in the spring?” I guess despising crowds, noise and meeting too many people as I… …continue reading.
What To Do With a Beautiful Day?
| September 28, 2011 | Posted by Jenny Ann Fraser under Feast..., One Sweet World |
The last days of summer are always something to be cherished. I’m not sure I could find many who would disagree with that or, maybe I would. In this day and age, as I have mentioned before, it seems to have become socially uncacceptable not to be ridiculously busy. And life is really busy. I… …continue reading.
When Things Don’t Go As Planned: Part Two.
| September 19, 2011 | Posted by Jenny Ann Fraser under Feast... |
“The best laid plans of mice and men often go astray” Last week, I wrote about how my website and launch did not go as planned. In fact, I am still having issues with fixing the things that are not working well, but I understand that life is much less stressful when you accept… …continue reading.
When Things Don’t Go As Planned…
| September 14, 2011 | Posted by Jenny Ann Fraser under Feast... |
Part One: On Thursday September 8th, I woke up 36 minutes after I was supposed to be at work. It’s no wonder since I had been sleeping about 5 hours a night the week before getting ready for my super-duper website launch. The one that didn’t actually happen because the night before, when my friend… …continue reading.
