A few days ago I took the risk of being honest with myself. I sat down and wrote about everything that hurts right now: all the pain that follows me around, all the unfinished business and emotional uncertainty that causes my heart to shrink into a tiny, hard ball. My heart is a peach [...]
My Risk Today? Nutritionally Sound Eating
For some, healthy eating is a risk. What about you? Want to take the risk and join Laura Biering in letting go of something that no longer serves you? C’mon! You’re worth it!
The Risk of Acceptance
Sorry I’m late posting my blog. I started to write last night, and the words weren’t there. Right now I’m packing for a mini-vacation to the ocean at South Padre Island. I’m so excited. Those of you who have followed my blog postings over the last several months know what a difficult and tumultuous time [...]
Laura Gets Around!
There’s a new kid in town – more blogging!
