She titled her talk “Staying right side up when everything is upside down,” but said it’s really about knowing how to “recover more quickly” when things are upside down. “What I’ve learned in life is that there is What I Planned … and What Actually Happens,” she said. “We’re wired to look for what’s wrong,” she said, noting that people have 40,000 thoughts a day “and 90 percent are negative.” She talked about how make change with positive thoughts. “You are in charge of your thoughts,” she said. “What you name that thing, it tends to become. Loren Barrigar and Robin Munn provided entertainment as the evening kicked off with food stations and a room full of vendors who focused on all aspects of wellness: physical, emotional, intellectual, occupational, social, and spiritual. Partner sponsors 4M Precision Industries, Inc. and Tessy Plastics Corporation were also joined by WHMB Law P.C., The Sherwood Inn, The Patisserie, Smiles of Skaneateles, CNY Healing Arts Wellness center & Spa, Achilles Heel Training, Delmonico Insurance Agency, and Fleur- de- Lis Florist.
