One of the best words of advice I have heard (which you most likely have too) is to speak to and treat yourself like a dear friend. Let’s say you make a mistake at work, you then start feeling down and ashamed. You start thinking, “why do I always mess things up?” You start spiralingContinue reading “Speak Kindly”

Self Care
Self care plays such an important role in our lives. I think we all know this. I have been trying to care for myself more over the past year, but I didn’t quite realise what it truly meant. What is self care? I realised that self care to me was to really take time forContinue reading “Self Care”
Going in Circles
I do find myself going round in circles in my head. I feel like I end up repeating patterns of negative thinking and behaviour as some of the same issues keep occurring. I’m not saying I can get rid of all issues altogether as issues arise in life, but if the same issues keep comingContinue reading “Going in Circles”
Slowing Down
I recently injured myself due to being in so much of a rush for no reason. I have previously been told to slow down and learn to relax which I have been able to do, but, the habit of running around did start to creep back. I feel that it’s good to be ambitious andContinue reading “Slowing Down”
Motivation
Motivation can sometimes be hard to come by. I always find that I start the new year well and with a lot of motivation and enthusiasm; this tends to run out and then find it’s way back a little bit at some point. Last year, as previously mentioned, I learnt a lot about myself andContinue reading “Motivation”
End of Week Reflection
Usually at the end of the year we like to reflect upon our achievements and failures in order to make new goals for the new year. This is what I often do at the end of the year so that I can aim for a positive start to the new year. Sometimes, we may alsoContinue reading “End of Week Reflection”
Letting Go
I have written about moving on from the past and not letting it control you in the present and this can be hard but fulfilling once you are able to, but, I have also experienced much regret from a recent incident. I have worked hard to ensure that I take time to reflect, write myContinue reading “Letting Go”
Rely on Yourself
When we were younger and at school or nursery; having our first proper interaction with lots of others of the same age to us, we generally want to be able to fit in and to be socialable. This is because we are training ourselves to develop socially and to not be alone which should helpContinue reading “Rely on Yourself”
Easter Holidays: What I have Learnt
The easter holidays are coming to an end. I usually like to use my time off to refresh and breathe; to amend and to learn. My emotions are something I am always working on. I am learning that I am not a bad person for feeling certain emotions because I am human. This sounds simpleContinue reading “Easter Holidays: What I have Learnt”
Focus on the Present
It is so difficult to completely be in the moment at times. Often so the mind tends to wonder elsewhere rather than truly focusing on the current task. It’s a habit that is hard to break. You could be simply cleaning but instead of only focusing on that you are thinking about the other choresContinue reading “Focus on the Present”
