Zen Inspirations

  My very good friend and exceptional pet sitter, Cheryl Baker, lives the life she dreams of....literally!
Cheryl believes that if you think positive and good thoughts, you will receive those positive and good things you think about.

  In other words, what you think about, you bring about. It's what some people call karma!

 Cheryl inspires me to do good and think calm and positive thoughts, every time we talk. She is so upbeat and inspirational! Her calm demeanor just radiates positivity.

 And in her own sweet way, Cheryl is helping to make the world a better place for animals too.

 Cheryl Baker is the artist and creator behind Zen Inspirations, New Age And Cruelty Free Living.
For a look at some truly gorgeous jewelry, stop by Cheryl's Etsy shop: Cheryl's Healing Gems.
www.etsy.com/shop/CherylsHealingGems
Every necklace, bracelet, ring and pet charm is made with semi-precious gems and sent to you infused with Cheryl's positive energy!
In her own words, Cheryl says, "My semi-precious jewelry is created with great intention, love, harmony and well-being."
Before you leave, be sure to check out the "Everything Else" page! It's filled with cool bumper stickers, key chains, white sage for clearing the air of negativity, and beautiful Himalayan Rock Salt Lamps! Definitely on my list!!

 I wish I could show you all of her jewelry...it's really breath taking!! And I have bought many pieces for myself, London, my mom and our dogs!!

 I want absolutely EVERY bumper sticker in her shop too! But my favorite, the one that reminds me of my beautiful friend, Cheryl, is the one that simply says, "Magic Happens".

 So tomorrow when you wake up, think about something wonderful happening to you.... smile, say kind things, think positive and happy thoughts, keep calm... and don't be too surprised, if magic happens!

Check back in the next few weeks. I will be interviewing Cheryl about her past life as an animal activist "Super Hero"!!!

Frozen Hearts, Forgotten Lives: The Peril Of Pets In Winter

  Keeping Your Pets Safe: Why They Belong Inside During Freezing Weather When temperatures drop, your pets rely on you to protect them from the cold. Leaving them outside in freezing conditions is not only dangerous for their health—it can also lead to serious legal consequences. Here’s why keeping your pets indoors during winter isn’t just a kindness; it’s a responsibility. 1. Freezing Temperatures Are Life-Threatening Dogs and cats are susceptible to frostbite, hypothermia, and other cold-related injuries. Contrary to popular belief, fur is not enough to keep them warm. Frostbite can damage their ears, tails, and paws, while hypothermia can cause their organs to shut down. Even hardy breeds like Huskies need proper shelter and care to survive extreme conditions. 2. IT'S THE LAW In many states and cities, it’s illegal to leave pets outside in extreme weather. If a neighbor sees your dog or cat left in the cold, they can—and often will—call animal control, the Humane Society, or ev...

WHAT IS COMPASSION SCHOOL?

  I get this question a lot. What is Compassion School? It’s not just another program or curriculum—it’s a movement. Compassion School is a groundbreaking approach to education designed to nurture empathy, kindness, and respect for animals in children from an early age. Imagine a classroom where math, science, and language arts intertwine with lessons on understanding animal emotions, advocating for creatures in need, and recognizing the interconnectedness of all life. That’s Compassion School.   Why Focus on Empathy for Animals?   Children are naturally curious about animals, but that curiosity isn’t always guided toward understanding and respect. Traditional education often overlooks emotional intelligence toward non-human lives. Compassion School fills that gap. Here’s why it matters:    Empathy as a Foundation: Empathy isn’t just "being nice"—it’s a critical life skill. Studies show that children who practice empathy toward animals develop stronger...
