I awoke this morning to a flooded kitchen. My labour saving reverse osmosis water machine had sprung a leak. I left it last night with a slow drip, a towel and a bowl to catch the water.
Of course, sense would dictate that I should have turned the water off. But as I hadn’t slept well the night before and was completely exhausted, this was the best I could do.
It was while I was mopping and thinking about tonights writing retreat that the words who do you want to become came to me. I had been thinking about the title of the blog and how Sagittarius was linked to the Solar Plexus in the chakra system. …
When you are developing your intuition and listening skills, a good place to start is understanding what the main way that you communicate is.
Lots of misunderstandings could be avoided if we listened in a different way. Listening requires you to concentrate and use your other senses in addition to simply hearing the words spoken.
I often find it difficult if people go into too much detail and drone on in a communication style that doesn’t match mine. This is when my journal or pen and paper is my best friend. …
What is a vision board?
In the simplest terms, a vision board is a collection of images that represent a goal from your bucket list. The aim of this tool is to focus your energy on a particular goal/dream/desire you have. As you find and display the images, you hone your sense of what you want to achieve, making your goals increasingly more concrete.
Vision boards are unique to the person, making them, you can use them to represent any part of your life. There are no rules to size or how you do them. …
No one is full of confidence all the time, and everyone has times of low self-esteem and low self-worth. It’s a bummer when it happens. One minute you are full of the joys of whatever season it is and the next wham!
And it’s a sneaky one…
This confidence review and circle exercise have been there to support me when I knew something was coming up. I used this yesterday with a client and I am waiting to hear how things went!
Let’s start with a confidence review
The lack of trust in our own abilities can be damaging to our potential, as it can stop us from doing the things that we are really capable of doing. …
It’s curious how things synchronistically come to remind you of what needs to be dealt with. On Friday a lovely friend was talking about not feeling good enough, which reminded me of an affirmation -
I am enough, I have always been enough, and I will always be enough and a journaling prompt — I deserve.
On Saturday night I did a wonderful full moon releasing ceremony with Yasmin Boland (Moonology fame). But strangely on Sunday although I felt ok-ish something was not right. I was soon to be triggered back into that feeling of not feeling good enough. …
It’s the final stretch of 2020 as the sun moves into Sagittarius — my sign. It’s been a long and tiring year for many, and I guess one which we all wish had been a little different.
Journaling and walking the furry ones have kept me sane. While I love my own company, I now have cabin fever big time and need to get out more. My moon in Cancer likes to keep me in my shell — but no more! …
Before I left for Spain a few years ago, I had a vision. It wasn’t anything to do with my business. It was a book, a novel no less that was going to be turned into a film and the rest as they say would be history.
As I drove from Wales to my mums in Spain, I played fantasy revenge novel plot lining while thinking about the less than nice husband I’d left. This was to be my novel. As there was no radio and two bored doggies in the back of the motorhome, I was left with nothing but my vivid imagination. …
What happens to you when you see or hear something about you which screams FAILURE? Or makes you recall feelings of failure?
What is your first reaction?
Mine is a tightness in my chest, in my heart and I feel my body, especially my shoulders and neck aching — as if I have the weight of the world on my shoulders. And then the thoughts come.
- “How *bleep* dare they!”
- “Who the *bleep* do they think they are!”
- “Right I am going to tell them what I think.”
- “No one will speak to me again when they see how useless I am.” …
What I love about a perfect day exercise is that you can do it any time. As a long term journaler, I believe in the power of the pen and the power of envisioning what you want through expressing my desires on paper. One of the keys to a perfect day is to write it as if it were already true and to then imagine often.
Gratitude prompt for a perfect day
Dog alert at minute 3…
In this video, I take a gratitude prompt from the little book of Gratitude Journaling Prompts.
The way to work with this book is there’s a prompt on every page, and basically what we do is we just let our intuition guide us to the prompt that we want. …
Have you ever wondered where your inner child's playground is?
In the body, we have many energy centres and the second is your inner child’s playground, a place of creativity, magic and wonder. It is also home to your sensuality and emotions.
One of the best ways to support these is to play. We can play in so many ways. I love to play with my dogs, I love to write and colour in mandalas.
You could lose yourself at the movies, ride your bike, rollerblade, go walking, play air guitar at concerts, go to a play and hang out with children. And you can just be silly with friends. Playing is also indulging in arts and crafts, singing, dancing, playing an instrument and sharing laughs with friends. …
