Be curious – stop the criticism.
“Be the witness of your mind. NO judgement or criticism. Just curiosity”. My conversations with young people, during a Branching Out session, are about them. What excites them each day? What kind of goals are they setting for themselves? What makes them really happy? How do they manage themselves when under pressure?. We speak […]
Friday Forgiveness …
I so hope that this has been a good week and a week where you have been compassionate to yourself – and to others. Sometimes we are so hard on ourselves and others that we can make our week quite miserable. Have you been critical and berating to yourself? Have you ruminated over mistakes? Have […]
HAPPY THANKSGIVING
Far too often over the many years of my life I have started journalling. I know the science behind it, I hear of the benefits and yet I also know that I invest too much into the ‘event’ and do not persevere when not feeling like it. I have started again and this time […]
What is the story that you keep telling yourself? Does it need to be told in a different way?
Good morning! It is drizzling here, dark and chilly and it is also Monday. On getting ready for my day I sensed how I was allowing my mind to tell stories that are not empowering, helpful or full of wonderful possibilities. Like when riding, I had to pull up on the reins, halt that flow […]

A frustrating week – but finishing Friday with kindness …
Hello from a sunny Friday in Somerset. Finishing Friday – I had hoped – would mean that I would be feeling somewhat ready for this weekend, feeling that I have ‘deserved’ it. However, it is so easy for me to go ‘off piste’ and not do what I want to do or set out to […]
BE YOUR OWN COACH …
What is the advice that you would give yourself now, knowing that you already do know the very right answer? It might not be the perfect answer, but it is a good plan that, with action taken, will yield valuable and worth while results. Can you imagine what it would be like if […]
Your precious time …
Good morning and I hope that this week is starting with gusto! What is it about TIME? Time that flies and yet, for myself, though I know in theory that I have the same time as others do, I am just not getting done what I want to have done. I know the answer (I […]
