As we get older, we tend to only be able to count our best friends or our inner circle on one hand. The friends you may have had when you were younger, you often have grown apart from and have gone in different directions. And that is OK! It's a way of life, and it's all a part of growing up and living. Never discourage anyone from going down a different path than you are. Many things may come into play that leads us down our different paths. It's OK to walk in different directions and still love a person from afar. It's OK to stop and smell the roses and enjoy the journey you are on.

November is another month that is lucky to have two birthstones:Topaz and Citrine. Citrine has been known to be a protection stone against negative energy and evil thoughts. It is a stone that is utilized for strength, hope and happiness. It is great for generating energy and recharging, as well as balancing emotions. Citrine only comes in a yellow/orange color and is part of the Quartz family. Citrine has been used as decoration dating all the way back to ancient Greece in 300 BC. Topaz symbolizes friendship and helps to stabilize emotions. The stone is great for love, prosperity, abundance and good fortune. Blue topaz is great for the throat Chakra which helps facilitate clear and precise communication. It also helps with balance of the mental, physical and spiritual body. Although topaz ranges in a variety of colors, it was most commonly seen as a bright yellow stone dating back in ancient Egypt. It was seen as a representation of the Sun god, Ra.

Lucky October has two birthstones: the Opal and Pink Tourmaline! Each opal is very unique and can range in color. This is a stone of good luck and fortune, especially for those born in October . It has been known to bring clarity to the mind as well. Tourmaline is known to protect against negative energy and it is used to help strengthen the spirit and physical body. It is also used for creativity and it is seen as a symbol of power. Each of these stones are unique in their own way, but they do have one similarity between the two: the rainbow.

Myths have stated that Tourmaline was believed to form as it passes through a rainbow as it came to the Earth's surface.

Start your day on the right foot! Your morning rituals help set the tone for the day. If you wake up in a bad mood or feel overly exhausted, chances are you may have a little bit of a rough start to your day. Here are a few tips and things you can start to incorporate into your morning rituals to help you have a positive, uplifting and successful day. Don't hit that snooze button! This is procrastination at its finest! No need to start the day procrastinating. Make sure to have a glass of water on your nightstand.

I'm so excited to be re-releasing Just Jenn Style with an all new spin. Welcome to Just Jenn Style: Zen Jenn ! The concept for Just Jenn Style began back in 2010 after I finished college. I talked mostly about fashion and style tips, tricks and trends for men and women until 2016. I took about 2 years off to soul search, get great new content, experience life and become the best version of myself! Each day we are all working on becoming a better version of ourselves then the day before and that is exactly what Zen Jenn is all about. Zen Jenn talks about tips, experiences and positivity in a healthy, happy and holistic way. I'll talk about spirituality (think Law of Attraction), New Age and motivational practices that work for me. Hopefully one or two of them will  even work for you!
