For those of you who follow me normally, on Facebook or Lyf, you would know that my life recently was turned upside down. Something very large changed in my world, resulting in a very reflective period. This change prompted me to question who I am, what am I doing, and more so, what do I… Continue reading Redefining My Story

Emotions – pain or purpose?
Emotions. Feelings. Sentiment. Pain. Anger. Joy. Love. Remorse. Excitement. Emotions are a bitch, but they are an important part of our journey, but the reality is knowing that doesn’t make it any easier to process them. It simply gives us an awareness of them, and the fact they are a necessary evil. This past fortnight… Continue reading Emotions – pain or purpose?
The Fear of Being Seen
For me, being seen is one of the scariest things in the world. But is it being seen that scares me, or being judged? Over the last few weeks I have pushed myself into the realm of publicity quite a bit. With an extremely important event, and even the mere act of conversations about what… Continue reading The Fear of Being Seen
The Art of Perfecting Balance
For many years I believed Balance was an art. I believed that balance was some end point, when I had my life together that I was totally at ease, calm, and collected. Where everything would come together, and I could kick my feet up and relax... Oh, how wrong I was. What I am sure… Continue reading The Art of Perfecting Balance
The Unkindness of Truth
Truth can do many things. It can illuminate the path, it can crumble the tallest tower, it can send the bravest person screaming for the hills. It can raise up the weak, and crash the strong. But in it's essence truth is simply, truth. Over the last two or three years I have had to… Continue reading The Unkindness of Truth
Silence – golden or threatening?
Silence is something that is quite intimidating to a lot of people. The idea of sitting in silence can fill people with dread, fear, anxiety. It can make people shift uncomfortably in their seats, unsure of what to say, or do, effectively making them in that moment question everything about themselves. The absence of sound… Continue reading Silence – golden or threatening?
Belief Structures – Helpful or Harmful?
We are born into this world, in many respects little sponges, soaking up as much information as possible. We learn, we grow, we change and adapt based on what is going on around us. Over time we develop core belief structures which continue to guide us, in our behaviours, our decisions, and importantly the way… Continue reading Belief Structures – Helpful or Harmful?
Soul or Human
I wrote this entry over a year ago when I was trying to work out the beauty of balance. Today I stumbled across it again and my words from then seem just as relevant today. Some days it feels like being a human can be hard. You know, we have a lot to content with… Continue reading Soul or Human
Expectations
Expectations can be a bitch. Whether they come from ourselves and our own internal dialogue, or from others and their imposed views of what we should be, expectations can add a shit ton of pressure. The real kicker? Expectations are not simple. The weave their way into all aspects of our lives. We are expected… Continue reading Expectations
Finding Time For Laughter
Sometimes, the way we release pressure build up within the body is through a physical representation of how we are feeling. The deep sigh, the short breath out, the art of active breathing. Our body often has our back, providing us with a way to release the physical tension that we accumulate throughout the day/week/month.… Continue reading Finding Time For Laughter
