All day every day you're doing so well! 😀🎉 How often do you stop to think about that?  Too often we can auto pilot our way through the day not even noticing or considering all the good we do in big and small ways - please remember they ALL count!  It's not about ego, going 'wow, look at me and how great I am'. It's just quiet recognition to help you to Continue Reading

You can go deep into what your life values are - there's been huge studies and much written on this topic. For me - I keep it simple. Here's just a few examples. I love my body and mind so I value both with my daily habits. I follow a healthy, vibrantly alive organic vegan nutrition plan. I meditate daily, practice QiGong, spend quiet time in Continue Reading

Oh my dear fellow women, when will you understand that life isn't about outer beauty! I refer to all genders too of course, but sadly this is predominantly a trait connected to people who identify as women, started because way back in time some woman decided she needed to make herself more attractive to men, or her particular man, and it became a trend.

I unashamedly love quotes! Plus, I love the pics creative people do with quotes on them. You can google pretty much any quote you like and you'll most likely find a great corresponding image.

When I was a kid there was a phrase teachers and parents regularly stated. "Good, better, best, never let it rest, until your good is better and your better best". I sort of understood it back then and recall feeling inadequate and that I may not be able to live up to it, but as an older adult,  it now makes perfect sense. Rather than seeing the Continue Reading

Many, many studies show that consuming too many 'junk' foods and drinks can not only contribute to unhealthy weight gain putting stress and strain on your vital organs, but can cause many other illnesses both physical and mental. But Continue Reading

We all like to think we're independent, but what does that really mean? I like to think of myself as a fiercely independent woman. I grew up in a family troubled by my dear Dad's alcoholism and I made up my mind in my teenage years that I'd be a strong person and never 'need' anyone. I've learnt, over many years of meditation and following a spiritual Continue Reading

So many people use so much energy and a great deal of time (and money) trying to impress others. Social media is a perfect example. People trying hard to post clever, witty posts screaming 'look at me, I'm great!' Sadly, women appear to be the leaders with constant pics of themselves in their new teeny weeny bathing suit, or new hairdo, extravagant make Continue Reading

One of the many ways we give ourselves a hard time is by comparing ourselves to others. How exhausting and stressful! Who's the judge anyway? Who writes the criteria for who's better than someone else? Sadly it's usually the media and advertisers wanting to sell you their latest product. How about starting today - right now, being kinder to Continue Reading
