Remember the saying "Slow and steady wins the race?" Turns out it's true. Slow down at work, with your partner and just in general. You may be surprised at how much sweeter life is when you aren't looking at it at warp speed.
"If you are looking for a little help in orienting yourself as we all stumble through life, I highly recommend Ariane's work. She will definitely help you add depth to your experience of life, which is really the point of our being here, after all."-Gordon on ThisNext.com

Question:Working out in the dark?

I like to run (I live near a park) but with winter coming on it doesn't seem safe to go for an early morning or post work jog alone in the dark...anybody have any experience with this, or any safety tips?

Answer:

I run every morning before sun-up, and it's very important to wear an LED arm band, a reflective vest, anything/everything you can find to make yourself more visible to traffic.

Answer:

Hmm I probably wouldn't do it, but then again I'm a young woman in New York City. Where do you live? Do you know of any incidents/bad things happening? Maybe you can find a running partner?
