    You're kidding right - December?

    December 2, 2018

    I love to reflect back at nearly-the-end of a year and am thinking

    it’s been a purposeful and productive 12 months.

    It’s December and I feel like I’m only just catching up, but that’s OK.

    It’s been an exceptional year of ups, downs, swings and roundabouts, but I’ve loved it.

    As I sip my wine (yet again:) I ponder the mysteries of life, and wonder wher...

    Look Up

    November 25, 2018

    Seriously! It’s the end of November and depending on where you’re sitting, things are either amping up or winding down.

    There’s a pretty full calendar of end of year happenings here, however give it another couple of weeks and one of the tattered diary pages might even show up blank!

    If you take a look around, there’s an awful lot of multi-tasking go...

    3 Ways of Being

    October 28, 2018

    '3 Ways of Being' is a simple but extremely effective tool to encourage mindfulness and the ability to ‘be present’ in any situation.

    Often our tired minds are so caught up in endless to-do lists and constantly distracted by digital overload, anxiety and fear that we are always ‘somewhere else.’

    When you are truly present your mind is aligned with yo...

    4 Seasons - Part 2

    October 21, 2018

    MB

    Last week we thought about how awareness that there IS a cycle to life can lead to greater self-awareness.

    If there is an upside it’s a guarantee that there will be a downside.

    Change it Up

    October 7, 2018

    MB

    When people ask about making changes to improve their life they often come up with limitations in the form of “I could never do that” or “It’s alright for them, they’ve got money, time, much better relationships” or whatever the subject may be.

    Move those ideas to trash. Start on a fresh page and begin to build a vision for life as you want it. Look...

    September 30, 2018

    MB

    Breast cancer awareness month bring with it a raft of emotions. I post about it once a year in the hope of inspiring others currently talking to the Troll. Once a year is all the air time I'm prepared to give to the chronic state of physical and emotional imbalance that so ravages our DNA.
