Flow. What’s meant for others is not always meant for you. The paths they take, down worn and trusted roads, will look more appealing than the overgrown and solitary one you are invited to walk. But the clearing will be immense, and many may follow where you have dared to lead.
I couldn’t understand why when good things showed up, the gifts I had asked and wished for, they arrived arm-in-arm with shadows of overwhelm and fear. I couldn’t understand the anxious movements, the tightness in my chest. But what I did understand was my tools. So many tools. I used EFT to tap into the
I’m a therapist and I have dark moods. I mean really dark moods. If someone were to walk into my therapy room showing the same disposition with which I am so familiar, I would immediately see red flags. There is no safeguarding muscle that would be satisfied until direct questions had been asked. ‘Are you
In parts of the world where basic needs are met and therapeutic support has become less taboo, our understanding of wellness has evolved to acknowledge the mind-body connection. We recognise that good nutrition, regular movement and stress management are essential to mental health. We understand that emotional pain left unexpressed does not simply evaporate but
It’s easy to look for answers to your questions outside yourself, you’re conditioned to do so. In school the focus is largely on what you’re taught by others and what you can remember. You become used to a collective who has an opinion on your behaviour and Iife: teachers, career counsellors, pastoral care. By the
Where sits the sense of self that will not allow itself to be treated so? The flame lit from the original spark that chose to bring such a creature breathing, crying, screaming into this world, that you now allow to be extinguished by one so low, where is it? Where are you?
What a luxury it is, to have one problem at a time. How fortuitous our luck, when a single event or emotion arises, and we have time to witness it in its entirety, to feel its vibrations move through our body, our lives, without distraction. Even as a moment ravages us, and we have the
There’s little information in life today that isn’t ultra-accessible or searchable online. We feel entitled to know things, anything, all the time. Beautiful as this thirst for knowledge is, quenching it doesn’t always work out quite so well, especially if the facts are incorrect, or placed into the wrong hands. Within the spiritual community I see knowledge
I had one of those moments the other day, that was so simple it slipped over into profound. It had been raining as I strolled down my local High Street, and I had my umbrella up. I was about to cross paths with a woman when she looked at me, smiled and said, “It’s not
I realised today, that I could live another 40years. 40 years. Once you reach a certain age, time can feel more finite, so many more years known than to know. Tell me, if 80 or even 85, were your top number, the end of your ride, so to speak – how many
I want us to have a love affair. You and me. How about it, my love? I’m inviting you to show up suited, in your tightest emotions thoughts, buttoned up over that raw and wounded chest. Come, let me unclothe you, let me help you out of this world where you are unhappy not
It is okay to feel sad, to fully experience it. It is part of the human condition. There are times that your heart will ache, beneath its beat of gratitude and love for all. It will ache for a present moment you did not expect, as it hopes for, and believes in, better times. Your
My coaching practice is built on more than offering you strategies or solutions. I’ve created it as a space for you to feel truly seen, held, and supported. It is the most important gift I can give to you. No one arrives wanting to find a better relationship, or reconnect with who they are,
Stand your ground. Own it. There is merit in fluidity, beauty in being able to flow as the river does, but there is also bravery in being immovable. There are times in life when the best way for you to move forwards, is for you to not move an inch. For you to have no
There is a phenomenon that will occur in your life, it will descend on you unexpectedly and repeatedly. You’ll wake up one day and make a discovery. An insight so profound and yet so glaringly obvious that you’re unsure if you really have not noticed it before. It’s familiar, even if you cannot place it.
I recently had an experience with a child who passionately wanted something. He asked me once and I gave my answer, which was a yes, or a maybe, or a later, but definitely not a no. What matters most isn’t my exact answer, but what came after it. There followed, from said child, an onslaught
