Last night I dreamt that I was waterskiing off of the fin of a Great White shark….I haven’t watched ‘Jaws’ in years so where did that one come from? Dreams – so vivid in the moment yet escape from our minds more often than not within the blink of an eye. Messages from our subconsciousContinue reading “Why Are my Dreams Getting Stranger??”

Do We Put *Unnecessary Pressure On Ourselves?
“Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.” – Confucius. Perhaps the best cure to all of our deepest worries in life isn’t in the chapters of the latest self help book, but in the caves of our ancestors. Wouldn’t life be a whole lot less stressful if we just ran barefootContinue reading “Do We Put *Unnecessary Pressure On Ourselves?”

The Simple Way To Feel Better
Sometimes the best things in life are the simplest. A stroll in the park, a sunbathe in the garden, a trip to the seaside.

Boredom-Busting Ideas
I’ve been trying to find new ways to keep myself occupied, especially since ‘winter is coming; and we all know what that entails.

The 5 year old tabby was shell shocked moments after being bitten in the spine byContinue reading “Animal Instincts”
Is Talent Subpar To Appearance?
“As a woman you are constantly fighting against only being valued for your looks, because it becomes a very tenuous thing, to be defined by the gaze of others. And beauty is, by definition, ephemeral: it’s a thing you can’t trap in time. It’s a butterfly: it lives for a second. So to make aContinue reading “Is Talent Subpar To Appearance?”
When Will This Nightmare End?!
I feel like the whole world and its dog has chewed me up, sh*t me out and then sh*t on me that little bit more this last month. Yes, I don’t just want you to cue the violins, I want you to cue the whole damn orchestra. I think we all have times inContinue reading “When Will This Nightmare End?!”
