Inspiration Report

We love Gabby Bernstein here on the Inspiration Report. She’s been kind enough to lend us some great guest blogs such as “I Believe in Miracles”. I’ve also had the pleasure of interviewing her on her latest book. Check out The Origins of a Spirit Junkie. And of course she has her own blog here…

For being an Inspiration Editor and generally content person, I’m always surprised at how pessimistic I can be. As mentioned earlier, November was a rough month for me.

What’s the first thing you do when you wake up in the morning? As soon as your eyes flutter, what’s the first thing you reach for? The first actions of the morning are important and set the tone for the rest of your day. That’s why I’ve learned to make my mornings a priority. No…
