  • The Tree That Bears the Most Fruit

    I am busy preparing for my interview with Deb Sturgess as part of her Virtual Telesummit starting on Friday. Deb wanted to create something to help people in difficult circumstances…and she came up with a virtual conference with 20 speakers (including myself) for $25 dollars! Awesome! This is such a great price, it’s ridiculous! She…

  • What Did You Do Right Today?

    If I asked you at the end of the day what you did wrong, or what you ‘should’ have done that you didn’t do, how many answers would you have for me? (just a rough guess, you don’t need to count exactly!) My guess is that you could think of 10-20 things quite easily. Now,…

  • You’d Think I’d Know Better

    Despite knowing that I get my worst and least work done when I am feeling uninspired, still I find myself forcing myself to sit at my desk and ‘get on with it’. Instead of getting up, stretching, playing with the dog, dancing, singing, laughing, getting some fresh air, blowing bubbles, bouncing on the trampoline or…

  • The Best For You

    This week’s OnTheBeach Article – to receive it every Wednesday, sign up here. Something I come across often in clients is that we expect the best from ourselves, but rarely give ourselves the best. There is some kind of paradox that says we should be superwoman …yet we don’t deserve to be given the very…

  • Put Yourself First For Christmas

    The silly season is upon us. Everywhere I look I see stressed out people with too much on their minds. Shopping, money, parties, work, and trying to fit in a life amid the business of having a perfect Christmas. But the funny thing is that if you stop and think about it, the best Christmases…

  • Self Care Vs Self Torture

    After talking to several clients, friends, and myself about self-care, I started to wonder if we learnt how to take care of ourselves from torturers. Do you recognise any of the following methods of ‘caring’ for yourself? 1. Feed your victim none nutritious food 2. Order your victim around 3. Deprive your victim of sleep…

  • Nothing is More Important Than That You Feel Good

  • Why is Rest a Dirty Word?

    Tell me something: Why is it that we find it desirable to work so hard that we have no time for our family and friends? Why is it that we are impressed by people who are terribly busy? Why is it that our working lives are dominated by stress and tension and no one sees…

  • Stop Putting Yourself Down in Front of Me

    I put a little note in an e-mail to a friend the other day “Stop putting yourself down in front of me” – I was semi-kidding, as I’m quite self-deprecating myself, but there was also a serious element to it. Can you imagine if someone followed you round all day, telling you how much you…

  • Stop or Your Body Will Stop You

    What a wonderful week I am having – I’ve had a bad cold since Sunday. At first I tried to resist, tried to continue as normal (well, normal as you can when your eyes and nose are streaming more liquid than any one body could possibly hold). Then as the days have worn on, I…
