Speak Kindly

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”

End of Year Reflection

It has been one of the toughest years for me. I have felt very stong emotions that took over me and it was hard to stop it. I finally ackowledged that I needed help and I took the step of reaching out for support which has been truly life changing. There were so many obstaclesContinue reading “End of Year Reflection”

A New Journey

I feel like my current journey is possibly coming to an end. This can be very exciting and positive, but, it also comes with feelings of anxiety and sadness. This may sound rather confusing, but, like with a lot of things in life emotions can be a mixture. My discovery of this new journey enteringContinue reading “A New Journey”

Time

Time seems to get away with us. We seem to think we are able to cram in as much as possible in the days that we have and before we know it that time has gone. Due to some much needed advice and help I realised how little time I was dedicating to relaxing andContinue reading “Time”

Climbing the Mountain

In my last blog post I talked about being on a journey of healing. I am currently still on this journey and I feel like I am continuously moving forwards. When I last wrote about my journey, I thought I was further than I actually was. The truth is I had got to a placeContinue reading “Climbing the Mountain”

Healing Journey

As the title suggests I have been on a healing journey. In all honesty I feel I have been on this journey for quite sometime. I cannot really pin-point exactly when I officially started this journey, I just know that it has been needed and, perhaps, I have been in denial. This is the reasonContinue reading “Healing Journey”

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”
