Changing Perspective…
Anything can be hard or easy, it’s really about what perspective and narrative you apply to it. As someone who has a psych background and is pursuing coaching, I now understand and appreciate the way that the mind works. I can understand the traps that it can create and I also know that when you’re…

Peace beyond the horizon of the mind..
When you get into a rhythm of being busy, you start treating idle time as wasted time and that’s not how I want to go about labelling days where I’m idle and or relaxing in the nothingness that’s planned. Today I noticed I was really agitated because I didn’t follow my routine, I didn’t do…

Letting go of rejection…
We store memories deep within our bodies, whenever they get triggered we relive them all over again. In this last week I’ve been triggered twice by events that have happened at work and as part of my coaching studies that have given rise to feelings of rejection from my childhood. When you’ve been bullied most…

Coming back to gratitude…
I caught myself reminiscing on the past this morning, on the London life. I miss the experiences, the adventures, the people and most of all the version of myself that was free and authentic. It’s easy to wish for a life that we don’t have, particularly when you’re stuck in lockdown with a world of…

Valuable…
When you are unclear about what your own values and beliefs are you tend to take on the beliefs and values that are projected and or imposed on you.

Filling the cup…
How you spend your time and who you spend it with is so important. Paying attention to what energises you and what drains you, who helps elevate you and who brings you down. These are all data points that can help you make better choices on a daily basis. The most important of all is…

That which is natural…
“How could nature, that which is natural, be modified?” This powerful question, that was raised in last weeks Philosophy class, really made me pause. Having a psychology background I am no stranger to the question of Nature vs Nurture. But when I heard this simple yet powerful question I realised that there is a subtle…

Self-Soothing…
Reflecting on the past week I can see that there were a few circumstances where I allowed the external situations over stress me. Work has been busy and therefore there is this constant state of falling behind and not being able to control things. It’s not so much the nature of the work that causes…

Healing the unseen…
I’ve become so accustomed to living in the anxious and depressed state, that I have come to associate those states with who I am. But the reality is that I am not an anxious or depressed person, they don’t define me and my way of being in the world. I am just a person who…

Self-sabotage….
All the roads lead back to kindness. The most powerful tool we can apply to our own lives and to others. The act of being kind is so powerful and it’s also really difficult to extend to oneself. When you have perfectionistic tendencies, combined with a competitive nature and an ambitious drive, you can become…
