Boundaries – a lesson in self love
Have you ever wondered….. Why am I still here doing this, when everyone else has gone? Why am I the only one that cares? I don’t want to do this and I’m getting irritated but I said I would. Why did I say yes when I meant no? I’m being told off and it has…

Dosage – our path to inner satisfaction.

What happens to our cognitive flexibility when we don’t feel ourselves?
I’ve been doing a deep dive into decision making, how it feels for me when I have big decisions to make when I am aligned and when I’m not and when I’m in a hurry and just need an outcome either way! I’ve been considering how I feel when I’m coming up against change, and…

What it feels like when we have a purpose?
What do you want?!” Something I used to hear as a child but not always asked in a kind and open way. Not just from my inner circle but the outer circle too. It was more like a standard phrase that was used to move me on or away. This week I have been considering what it…
