Is your Mobile Phone taking over your life?
If I were to ask you this question, what would your answer be?
When was the last time you went for a walk, took a shower, went to the toilet, to the gym, to bed or ANYWHERE without your phone?

Reflections on forgiveness
….I used to think forgiveness meant I had to be ok with what a person did in order to move on. But as I have matured, and my perception on the world has shifted, I have realised that forgiveness is a shift that happens within. To me, forgiveness is about allowing ourselves to move on from someone, or something they did without constantly re-attaching ourself back again.

7 days at a Meditation retreat in Thailand
Meditation has been a part of my life for many years now. I meditate in group yoga and spiritual classes and also at home.

Quick anxiety relief: Humming
The other day at yoga, we did a little humming exercise. It was such a lovely exercise that I’ve used over the years to reduce anxiety and it always brings me to a state of calm.
It got me thinking about how such a simple exercise can bring so much peace and calm so quickly. In the past I was a huge anxiety sufferer and have used many techniques in order to help me. And I figured; it it brings me a lot of calm then it might be helpful to others who haven’t experienced this before. So below I will explain to you how to do this little technique and also the benefits you will receive from doing it.

End of year Reflections
The end of the year is a really powerful time to pause & reflect on the year. It’s an opportunity to both honour your progress and release what no longer serves you.
Reflection is two-fold..
The first part is acknowledging and celebrating how far you have come.... And that may look really different for everybody.
Some people may be proud of major achievements, while others might simply be relieved they made it through. Whatever your experience, it's important that you don't compare yourself to anyone else, and focus on your unique journey. Take a few moments to celebrate you………

🎄 The festive season comes with a whirlwind of energy that can feel overwhelming, especially for empaths. Navigating the chaos of Christmas can be challenging, but setting healthy boundaries can make all the difference.
One of the most important boundaries you can establish is learning to say no to events that bring you unnecessary stress. Decline gracefully when possible—and do so without guilt.
If you find yourself needing to participate in events that may be stressful or don’t align with your values, here are some strategies to help you stay grounded and balanced:
Gratitude is the key
When things happen in life, it can be difficult to embrace the concept of gratitude. It can be difficult to find the things that truly fill your heart. But they are there. They are always there. It’s a matter of re-training your habits, and therefore brain, to gain acceptance of your life as it is right now and seeing the good. You need to ask yourself, how do you want to live your life? Glass half-full or glass half-empty? It is up to you to turn yourself around.
