Relentless: The Blog: October 2015
http://www.kelliespringer.com/2015_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 26, 2015. When you gaze into your looking glass what or who is it you see? Do you gaze upon yourself with judgment and shame, or compassion and glory? Of course the mirror is symbolic in that it reflects to us that which we feel or believe about ourselves, no matter if there is truth to it. Many try avoid the image looking back at them in the physical mirror as often as possible, and most absolutely refuse to do any internal self-reflection. Why is that I wonder? Good question, no? Lovabl...

Relentless: The Blog: Sacred Moments
http://www.kelliespringer.com/2016/12/sacred-moments.html
Friday, December 23, 2016. My care-taking role was of importance, but suddenly I felt. That running my children to the local Kohl's for sweatpants was nothing short of a blessed act. That I was providing nurturing for another soul felt monumentally significant. I could sense the beauty of my actions and feel the love filling the cabin of my SUV. Be well and happy.

Relentless: The Blog: September 2015
http://www.kelliespringer.com/2015_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 28, 2015. In my mind I keep hearing the Eagles singing the title of their song, Peaceful Easy Feeling. My assignment this week? Cultivate that feeling despite what might be going on around me. Have you heard of the spiritual saying, “Do not allow the behavior of others to steal your inner peace? 8221; Yeah, well me too and I gotta tell you, it’s a slippery bastard to master. I must say, it was exhausting. Many times I had to pause to catch my breath, breathing in the tranquility and...

Relentless: The Blog: How the Self-help Community is NOT Helping Us
http://www.kelliespringer.com/2016/12/how-self-help-community-is-not-helping.html
Saturday, December 10, 2016. How the Self-help Community is NOT Helping Us. I know, it sounds like an oxymoron, that title. But watching, listening and reading various blurbs post-election reminded once more that those intending to enlighten us on our spiritual paths are sometimes keeping us in the dark. How so? Let me ask you this: Have you ever felt angry, expressed that anger to another and been told, ‘You have nothing to be angry about,’ or ‘Your anger is only hurting you. Let i...It is my belief tha...

Tuesday, December 29, 2015. It feels to me as though we are continually force fed the notion that we must forgive others for their trespasses. It has earned a place on the list of "shoulds" in our society. Forgiveness is placed upon the pedestal as one of the most holy acts we can achieve, a state for the most virtuous among us and one that remains elusive for many. As we sit in that seat of shame a bizarre thing occurs, we hold on tighter to our resentment. Why? Do you have to forgive? Probably. Bec...

http://www.kelliespringer.com/2017_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 9, 2017. Confessions of A Dead Man. This post has been swimming around in my mind for a month or so. I was struggling as to how I might make it fitting for anyone that chose to read it. Today, I have come to the realization that I am going to make this all about me. If you care to join me on my travels, I welcome you; and if not, I hope to see you soon. I am a recent author of my memoir, Relentless: A Journey of. So now you’re kinda, sorta up to speed on the backstory. It was then that I ...

Relentless: The Blog: April 2016
http://www.kelliespringer.com/2016_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 25, 2016. By now our world has been saturated with the tune Purple Rain. Everywhere we turn there is a clip or article about his artistry or life, but none of it can fill the void. The world still feels smaller without him among us. It made me pause and take time to think exactly why, besides his obvious talents, he touched so many among us in such a profound way. But then everything always did because even though he was putting on a show, it never seemed to be an act. He stood in front of ...

Relentless: The Blog: November 2016
http://www.kelliespringer.com/2016_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 12, 2016. This is the Mantra of Personal Growth. I made a recent post on Twitter that seemed to resonate with so many people and it got me to thinking…wondering exactly why. Below is my tweet:. Unkind, thoughtless, selfish or cruel. And therein lies our test, how do we react or cope with the pain? Do we embody those emotions, the feelings that the one that harmed us most surely felt as well as they lashed out? Do we become and own what has been thrown into the boxing ring? That is exac...

Relentless: The Blog: August 2016
http://www.kelliespringer.com/2016_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 29, 2016. Many of us are aware of the song that tells us that signs are everywhere. I have indeed found this to be the truth on my own journey of growth and healing. Once we aspire to increased personal awareness the universe conspires to support us in that quest. That is exactly what I have done as I embarked on my odyssey of personal healing, one that led me to self-compassion and forgiveness of myself and others. No matter how insignificant the presentation seemed to my mental inter...
