Well, the intended topic was completely different, but I managed to produce a rather intersting but slightly disjointed thought essay on this topic! Bear with me, and take from it the nuggets which are important!

Never forget this, even in your darkest and hardest seasons. Whether it's just that so many other people are going through what you are, or whether it's that there is a greater good holding you in it's arms and giving you the strength to deal with what you need to do. You are not alone💞

Short life update! Good to be back! And I wanted to share "Letters From Love" and my letter which I read so that you can get the main idea of how to write yourself a letter from love! A great exercise in self awareness, and in self care in my opinion!!

Is it a good thing, or can too much of it become a bad thing. I don't really know, but it's good to think about!

Here we go with part 2 - so much to this often used word! Love digging into the research, and love thinking about just how much this radiates into so may corners of our lives!

Who knew there was so much to learn about gratitude! Makes me so grateful! And although we know there are benefits, what are they? And how can we be more grateful, and why should we?!!

What does this mean to you? Let's define dreams first of all, and then lets talk about how realistic this old adage actually is, and/or how we can make it work for each of us in a healthy and robust way. Life is made for dreaming, and for living your dreams!

What is a toxic relationship? What is the opposite of a toxic relationship? Whether you are talking about a romantic relationship, a friendship or a family relationship, this is relevant. Should we always leave? or can we turn the situation around?

What does it mean to be authentic or embodied? Can we be authentic or embodied yet give of our time and love and energy without giving up our boundaries? How I felt when I tried! It was good!!!

Something everyone needs more of, but is not nurtured enough in today's world, in my opinion. What is it? And why can we use more of it in today's world?

We all need help sometimes. We all want to help - sometimes!! Just thinking about the concept of asking for help, and how it makes us feel, and how we can get better at doing it!

What is happiness? How can we find it? What is unhappiness? How can we lose it?

Be authentic. Be honest with yourself. Be generous with others. Be humble. It takes practice.

Some great inspiration which I found in a podcast interview with Jane Fonda. Love the idea of being em-bodied, re-membering, and being democratic in all our relationships. See what you think!

A fresh new start for 2023, without resolutions!

We would not be who we are if it were not for our pasts. Why are so many of us keen not to keep treasured belongings and photos on show? Is it healthy, or is it sad. Musings from time in the UK with my kids and thoughts about really preserving our heritage.

Learn to value yourself! xo

Finishing off defining the roles family members can fall into and why, and then looking at how different family dynamics shape our families, and affect the roles which are played within them. Most importantly, remembering how important family is in our lives no matter how difficult it feels sometimes!!!

What roles do we all play within our families? How are they defined? Can we learn from this? 

Summer's over, but Autumn is beginning. How can we reframe endings into new beginnings!?

Is it where we get to? Or how far we have come? 

What is wisdom? Do you use your wisdom enough? How do we answer the question "Is that wise?" Lots of stuff to unpack and think about!!

Or is it?!!! Is this phrase just an easy out?!
