Last Christmas was different, and this one will again be different for many of us. Wherever we are in the world, we all have our own ways of celebrating. Here, in Vanuatu, I hear that Santa makes his visit on a paddleboard! If things aren’t
This time of the year can be a lonely and painful time, a time of isolation and vulnerability if you’re grieving or experiencing any separation. Add in the pandemic and these feelings are very much exacerbated, it’s not at all easy. For those who have
What if… you knew in your heart that you are enough just as you are, you don’t need anything more…how would that change how you feel about to yourself? Just as diamonds need light to sparkle, when you connect to the warmth and light within
These past few weeks we’ve looked at how easy it is for our sense of value to nose-dive when something unexpected happens and we lose our sense of security. Moving into December… with holidays coming up, times that can bring up stress and tension… if
It can happen. When you get your sense of value from something external…perhaps your status at work, your relationship…when you lose that, what are you left with? How do you feel about yourself? When it occurs unexpectedly, you can feel knocked sideways and sometimes feel
Have you ever had a moment when you simply know that you can’t go on living the way you do…a moment when you realise that you’ve got to pick yourself up and sort yourself out? When something unexpected happens…your partner leaves, you feel hurt and
When your world is turned upside down and you don’t know where to turn, it’s easy to panic and feel totally alone. With all the lockdowns we’re experiencing, this can feel especially true. At the same time, you may feel a need to hold it
Making decisions can be tough when something unexpected happens, when there’s so much to consider and the future is unpredictable. How often does our head gives us a message that has us feeling panicky about what to do, we feel the pressure of time and
Looking at how to feel secure within yourself, last month we talked about feeling your feelings rather than pretending everything is ok – not suppressing them, and at the same time not drowning in them. This not only honours who you are, it helps you
Looking at how you can support yourself through any uncertainty…rather than resist what’s happening, when you accept what is, you can then look at what you can control and what action to take to move forward. There’s always something constructive you can do…even if you
At a physical level, it’s probably fair to say that at the moment many of us have no idea what will happen from one day to the next. All over the world there’s so much change occurring politically, climatically, and with Covid. And when the
Most of us like to feel in control, some of us like to know everything, so when life is uncertain we can panic not knowing. Wanting to know, wanting to control, I’ve learned, is the biggest thing that gets in the way of being at
When life is turned upside down and you don’t know what to do, what do you need in order to feel certain within yourself ? How can you take care of yourself until you’re able to pick yourself up and focus on what next? Much
Uncertainty is unsettling for us all, the question is …how are you supporting yourself through it? We’re each impacted in some way by all the change that’s happening, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed, sometimes downright shaky, and of course that increases our stress levels. At
Investing in your life as it is right now…..last week we talked about letting go of worries and finding joy in your day. Of course, when you focus on the present, you can bring your attention to how you are being in whatever you’re doing.
Imagining a world living in peace….where you feel happy with what is… Like climate change, it’s down to us; and there is a way. It starts with understanding, then being at peace with our self. In fine jewellery, a diamond’s uniqueness is determined by its
This month we’re looking at a different way to be… to help us to live in peace and acceptance. Through first of all understanding and accepting who we are, then through simply being ourself. It starts with looking at how you see ourself, discovering your
Last month we talked about John Lennon’s dream of the world living in peace, and looked at the big picture of what might need to change to make our planet a better place. Of course, if we want to change something it begins with our
