Happy Monday everyone! It took me a while to figure out what exactly I wanted to share in this post and to be honest, as I type this I'm still not entirely sure what to say. For those of you who read Living Taylored regularly you may have noticed that I was a bit absent … Continue reading Taking A Break
February definitely flew by and I'm not going to lie, my intentions and goals that I set at the beginning of this year did not go well this month. I intended to format these monthly reviews in the same way each month but since February's progress was non-existent I am going to do this a … Continue reading 2018 Intentions: How To Get Back On Track (Feb. Reflection)
Productivity and time management, two things I definitely need to work on this year. I like to think of myself as an organized person and while I may be organized I often struggle to focus and manage my time well.

For example, in college my condo flooded about 2 weeks before finals. I was beyond stressed and most definitely over reacted. Was it unfortunate, YES. Was there really anything I … Continue reading Learning to Let It Go
Back in July I downloaded the Headspace app and would occasionally do one of the short meditations before bed. I quickly began to notice a major difference on the nights that I would meditate and they following day. I knew that I would benefit from it even more if I made it a habit to … Continue reading What I Gained From a Month of Meditating
About 15 months ago I remember sitting in my office at work talking with my friend Cynthia about how I needed something that would allow me to be creative and keep me busy (mostly to take my mind off of how busy my husband is with work). She encouraged me to start a blog (she … Continue reading Living Taylored: Year 1

Scott Fitzgerald Photo taken in Oct. 2016 in Connecticut (Saville Dam on Barkhamsted Reservoir) For me there has always been something special about this time of year.
