Tranquility Dejure, June 14th, 2009.

Bonjour and welcome to the 155th edition of Tranquility DeJure,

a guide to bringing tranquility to your everyday.

As usual, we're recording from the Pink Palace in Washington, D.C. And a big

merci beaucoup for all of you who have commented on the blog, sharing your Twitter handles,

and your blog addresses. It's such a delight to connect with so many of you virtually.

I feel like we have such an amazingly fun

and talented online community. So thank you. And if you miss that at all in the blog, please go

Today's show I'm just delighted to share is featuring the lovely and oh so talented Amy Butler.

join us if you haven't registered yet, and that's $10. And Tranquility Tip. This is one thing I'm

these I even translate throughout the day, even whenever I come home. And one is lighting a candle.

First thing I do when I walk in the door is I light a candle
