Meditation doesn’t promise to solve your problems - unfortunately life, with all its ups and downs, will still happen. However it can change how you react and relate to certain situations, providing you with a toolkit to cope and manage in those instances. It offers an inner stillness and calm amongst the chaos that may be happening around you. Rather than being trapped by your thoughts and ending up in a tailspin, meditation teaches you to let the thought come in and release it back out. As long as you have an open mind, dedication and commit to consistent practice, meditation really can t ..read more

In the last couple of weeks I have found it really challenging mentally, physically and emotionally. I have been an emotional wreck. I have felt exhausted, overwhelmed, and just so, so tired. It didn’t help that I also lost a beautiful member of my family during this last month. This was probably the start of this awful couple of weeks. I have felt totally suffocated and in prisoned in my body and mind.  I actually thought I was heading towards another mental breakdown. It scared me to death! Today, I had an amazing lightbulb moment…I realised that Sue (the name I have given to my di ..read more

We live in a world of immediacy, a fast-paced culture that we’re all rushing through. The workplace in particular is known for ‘work ‘til you drop’ cultures that leave employees stressed, overworked and, as a result, unproductive. And then Covid hit. Which for many exacerbated the pressure they were feeling and the stress they were faced with. As employee roles kept changing and they had to learn to continuously adapt, their mental health and wellbeing felt the impact.

For your meditation practice to have the most impact, you need to be clear on why you’re meditating before you start. This is called setting your intention. By definition, your intention is a short-term goal for your mindset or the focus of your meditation and should be quite simple and straightforward. Setting your intentions is an extremely powerful tool and a key part of the process for your meditation practice. If you don’t set firm intentions, you’ll eventually lose sight of the reason you’re meditating. This is because when you set an intention, you put your focus where you want it ..read more

The pain in my body & in my life was so overwhelming. It made it difficult to focus on anything else. I felt like I couldn’t enjoy things to the full because this pain would follow me everywhere I went. It haunted me & I could ..read more

My disability sometimes tortures me, mentally and physically, it can take complete control of my mind. At times it really fucks with my head, it overwhelms me, it makes me feel vulnerable, it makes me feel weak and it makes me feel afraid.  It plays havoc with my mind. When I’m in this mindset it sucks up my positivity, my confidence and my beauty, it totally dims the light within me. It’s exhausting and I sometimes hate it with a passion. I have always been a fighter and survivor.  I put on a brave face in front of people… the only one that knows and hears my truth, feels my pain ..read more

What do you see when you look at me? Once you connect with me, you will never forget me. I am everything, that you wish you could be. I wear an invisible crown that sits on my head.  I am queen of my castle. I am unique, I am special, I live my life differently.  I was born a fighter... A survivor. I have my own set of wheels, and elbow crutches - for all to see. Sometimes I am my own worst enemy, sometimes I am my own cheerleader... Sometimes.  When we connect, you will feel the love, the compassion and the kindness that always radiates from within me. When you look ..read more
