I’m in the process of changing my original business name, Moonset Meditation, to Pathways To Serenity With Glenda. I love teaching and my sole purpose in becoming a meditation teacher was to help people handle their stress. Since I began teaching in 2015, this has grown to include teaching qigong, reiki, facilitating retreats, speaking...
Read MoreHave you ever read something, that just in a few lines can have a profound affect on your thinking? On your life? I saw this image shared on Facebook by my friend Debbie. Perhaps you’ve seen it too. I’ve seen the same picture posted since then with slightly different wording, but it was this caption that grabbed me - and it still

Read MoreWe have a new puppy in the house. This isn't unusual for us as it's a yearly (or less) occurrence. We foster future Dog Guide puppies for the first year of their life (more about that below) and for the first few months it's like having a new baby here. Xila doesn't sleep through the night yet, is up early and at this point we're living in the...
