I saw something under the couch and was concerned it might be a library book. Reached under and pulled out this little beauty. Okay then. I’m sending that email. Got it. xoxo

Walk With Me Camilla – Birdsongs
September 9 2016:
Just back from a walk with my first “Walk With Me” client who is at the beginning stages of learning the art of mindfulness and letting go of many things. Our mindful walk was the perfect piece to add to the clients tool bag.
Listen to the serenade we received from the birds and what a treat with the abundance of wildlife.
Would Anyone Believe?
September 6 2016:
Thomas and Camilla August 2016 date day …. (Our date day got postponed by a few days as Thomas was sick!)
Little Washoe Lake …. “Would anyone believe that playing with sticks and walking and splashing in the water would be so fun?” -Thomas. This was an impromptu stop as we drove right by on our way home from Carson City. And it was Thomas’ idea …. Kinda. As I had just thought, we should stop by the lake. Hmmm.
The wind was blowing like crazy and I accidentally took the first two pictures of the sky! My phone takes random pictures as this case doesn’t quite fit it properly. They turned out awesome!
Thomas told me he was having so much fun and was so happy we stopped. I sat in the sand and watched him a while and then he asked me to join him. And I did. Took off my shoes and walked and splashed with him.
Cost of this date = $0 / Value = Priceless xoxo
We Learn About Sagebrush and Explore the Nevada State Museum
September 6 2016:

How Camilla Feels About Not Having Television

Lillian wanted to turn the video on me yesterday. At first, I told her we’d do it next time .. Then changed my mind and said “yes!” I also told her to surprise me with a question. xoxo
Peaceful and Quiet and Birdsongs
September 2 2016:
Lillian and I found a really cool spot to sit Tuesday night on our walk. So peaceful and quiet. I just love going for walks with her, soaking it in, and taking pictures to capture the view. xoxo

Walk With Me – The Simpler Approach
September 3 2016
I am moved to add a “simpler” version to the “Walk With Me” nature-based coaching sessions I offer.
This offering does not include coaching, we simply take a walk together. The charge is $10/mile. The little lake where we live is about a mile and a half when walked around twice, so that would be $15.
We take our pets for walks as we know it’s good for them. Why not take ourselves for walks too? We can walk in silence, we can chat, or I can help you to reconnect with nature and inner peace. If you decide you’d like to add coaching or mentoring that can certainly be added …. xoxo … Go here for more information.
