Hi everyone! Happy Fear Monster Friday!

I don't know about you, but most of the time when I'm upset about something, I've found that if I dig a little deeper, the thing I'm upset about is not the thing I THINK I'm upset about... if that makes sense.

There's always a deeper message waiting for you to listen, no matter what emotion you might be experiencing. Your emotions are a clue, a guide to...

Hi everyone! Happy Fear Monster Friday!

Do you ever feel like you're not where you're supposed to be in life? Maybe you thought by now you'd be at a certain point in your career, or you'd be married with a house, white picket fence, and 2.5 kids.

Sometimes we can get so focused on how we had our life mapped out that we forget to look around and consider that maybe we're exactly where we're...

Hi everyone! Happy Fear Monster Friday!

I don't know about you, but I know my fear monster has a really hard time dealing with "difficult" people. He kind of needs to figure it out because unless I go live in a cabin in the woods, there's no way of avoiding them!

Now, I try to remind George that when we're dealing with someone who is a bit of a challenge, they are  most likely that way...

Hi everyone! Happy Fear Monster Friday! I hope you've had a great week!

Fear monsters are so self-conscious! Lately, I've been working really hard on work, the comics, writing my book, teaching a meditation class, and a million other things. I hate to admit it, but with everything on my plate, my workout routine has been neglected. So of course, George feels the need to point out those...

Hi everyone! Happy Fear Monster Friday! I hope you've had a great week!

This week, George was once again feeling overwhelmed with all of the things on my to-do list, and ended up stressing me out so much that I got sick! (Hence why there was no Wednesday comic this week. Sorry about that. I will do better next week!)

It's funny how sometimes you can get so stressed out that you end up not...

Hi everyone! I hope you had a good Monday!

This past week, I noticed a really old wound that was triggered a couple of times, and being triggered is never fun, but since it came up twice in one week, I decided it was time to let it go. Part of my healing process involves forgiveness, for both myself and the person who hurt me, but I found I had a really hard time forgiving this particular...

Hi everyone! Happy Fear Monster Friday!

This was my first week trying to put out three comics a week (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday!),  and I found myself feeling a little bit overwhelmed because I still had to go to work and do all the other things I have on my to-do list. I am posting this a little later in the day than I would have preferred, but hey, it's still Friday, so somehow I...

Hi everyone! Hope you're having a good Wednesday!

Have you ever noticed your brain doing that thing where it gets stuck on something, and you can't seem to focus on anything else no matter how hard you try? Whenever that happens to me, I call it a "brain infinite loop." And yes, I am a computer nerd. 

I'm going to tell on myself a little bit -- I TOTALLY did this to myself this week. I...

Happy Monday! (It's George's first Monday appearance and he's very excited!)

Have you ever been waiting for a text, and your fear monster starts to go some pretty weird places about why you haven't received it yet?

There are a couple of different reasons for this phenomenon. The first is that fear monsters do not do so well with a complete absence of logical facts. They have very vivid...

Happy Fear Monster Friday everyone!

This week's comic goes along with last week, actually. Last week, George and I learned that it's okay to feel hurt, or any other so-called "negative" emotion. You feel however you feel, and there's nothing wrong with that.

On the other hand, sometimes without making a conscious effort to be thankful, we can so easily forget how lucky we really are....
