  • A Month Of Giving

    As we’re coming up to Christmas, I thought this video might inspire you to think of your giving in a different way…and I’m thinking I might do this challenge myself in December (well, it sounds easier and more fun than nanowrimo!)

  • Giving Thanks

    Today is Thanksgiving holiday in the US. Now this is a holiday I like! It’s all about good food and appreciation. What a great reason for a day off. Although we don’t celebrate it here in the UK, it’s a good reminder to appreciate what you have. All to often we go through life just…

  • Nanowrimo Update – 1 Week To Go

    Well, there’s only a week to go until November is over and I’ll either be a Nanowrimo winner (having written 50000 words) or loser (having written less). Of course, whether I win or lose, I will still have learnt some incredilbe things about the process of writing a novel – among which is the need…

  • Blessed Solitude

    I’ve been reading Anne Morrow Lindberg’s ‘Gifts From The Sea’ this week – where she writes what comes to her when she is looking at seashells. Last night I was reading her thoughts about the need to spend time in solitude. At the time of writing she was spending a week alone on an island…

  • Are You Being Brilliance?

    Inside all of us is the knowledge of who we could be…not the ‘stick thin woman trying to get out from under a layer of jaffa cakes’, but the core of our being – that bit that knows ‘there is more to me than this’. Inside you there is a wonderful, beautiful, loving, brilliant woman…

  • Abandon Your Inhibitions

    Last night I went to see my favourite band in the world, Muse. They are INCREDIBLE live – simply awesome! Anyway, these days I usually stand to the back of the crowd, in plenty of space to dance – I’m less bothered about seeing (although last night I was stood near the cameras so I…

  • If It Wasn’t Personal…

    I was talking to a friend last night about taking things personally. In the UK, we have a horrible habit of taking things personally – someone is a bit ‘funny’ with us and we take it personally, our employer brings in a new rule and we take it personally, the weather is rubbish and we…

  • The First Step Towards Healing Your Money

    Many of us have issues with money, many of us have limited education and knowledge when it comes to managing money, and many of us have no clue how to move forward into a life of financial ease. One of the contexts I live by is the idea that we already have all that we…

  • Where Did It All Go Wrong?

    When something goes wrong in your life, what do you focus on? What you did wrong? What they did wrong? What is wrong? That’s what most of us do…sadly! Because there is only limited value in looking at what went wrong. Yes, you can find a mistake and fix it. But mostly we find a…
