TODAY

You know what? You’re alive. Fully breathing in and out and reading this right now. Even though I know you are not sure of a tomorrow, no one is but there is a big fat chance that you have your today left. However short or long it might be. so I want to ask you one question that in turn you actually have to ask yourself aloud. “What’s this stress is actually about?” and I want you to narrow it down to exactly how that thing is affecting your today or the next 24 hours lying ahead of you. You might not get the gist of all this in hardly a minute of reading this but even if you feel that you stressing about things is still valid then just think about this few sentences a few more times. Now returning back to my exact point, you might have a lot of shit going on in your life and for whatever phase you are in your life it might seem the biggest to you but stating it very simply for my own sake DON’T STRESS ABOUT THE TIME YOU ARE NOT IN RIGHT NOW. Just don’t. If you actually think about it, it does make sense. 

It is one simple policy to hold onto. Don’t think how good/bad you did yesterday neither how good/bad you are going to do tomorrow. It actually works. More than you think it can. And when you realize this, you will actually know how much your pretty mind made a fuss in there. Well, to elaborate on the fact how you can handle things with calming your mind, here is how I do it. Whenever you realize that your mind is making an ugly bubble of stress just remind yourself that this thing should not and could not consume your today and if you do give this a deep thought (i.e. if you want to) you will actually come to realize that how much crap you are living with. 

Closing this I just want you to realize that between how you survived your yesterday and how you are going to survive your tomorrow lies your today, maybe untouched but definitely slipping away.

28th April 2020

This is one of the most surreal times of my life. Living in Lockdown since 23rd March due to Coronavirus can only be described as if I’m living in a Hollywood movie, except it’s real.

Some days I manage to pass through the day giving this whole crazy situation the minimum about of thought. Other days I’m consumed by the enormousness of it all, reading every article and imagining every negative scenario.

I can thankfully say at the moment we haven’t directly been impacted by one of the heartbreaking number of deaths and I can only hope that all my loved ones stay safe.

The strange thing is, is that pre Covid our future has always been uncertain, but we lived with that knowledge everyday generally unaffected by the thought that our future is not promised. However now in this state of restriction and fear having this uncertain future has now become scary and hard to accept.

We have been lucky to live a relatively free life up until now, in a country that has food, running water, schools and homes. We have taken for granted our health system, our environment, our planet, our freedom. It’s humbling on some levels to strip it back and see what’s important to you, your family, your goals. I’ve definitely done a lot of self reflection.

Now I find myself in this slight ‘groundhog day’ life, battling with making each day count and simply going with the flow. It’s hard and some days are harder than others.

I am grateful and lucky that I get to spend my days with a man I love and my 3 amazing humans that all have a special place on this planet.

I am incredibly thankful to every person that’s making a positive difference right now, it restores my faith in human kindness. Some truly beautiful stories will be told about this time.

Whilst being fully aware of the seriousness of this ‘pandemic’ that we are living in, if I begin to think past today I loose my footing. So trying to remain present is my mantra. Love is my armour and trust, in that life is unfolding as it should be. These all helps me accept this invasion that side swiped our blissfully unaware lives we once lived.

I continue to hope that everyone I love remains healthy and happy and one day we find our new normal, whilst not forgetting the journey we took to get to it and the values we hold close to us.

Living during the Coronavirus is one crazy ride.

And then a brand new chapter starts.  Life is so incredible. The power of attraction is so insane.  A month ago life was completely different.  I was stuck in a city and in a mindset that was harmful to my well-being.  We received news from our landlord that we needed to move, we decided to move to a new city. We have just arrived after a 2-day road trip across the country.  It feels as if life is perfect right now. Anything is achievable if you want it hard enough. You need nothing but faith to get you there.  I came across #HighOnLife on youtube, and this one single video caused a change in mindset - And now we’re here.  If you feel like you need some inspiration to go out and chase after your dreams in full force, go watch this >>> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJF5NXygL4k

An opportunity to change this moment can happen by unwinding a limiting belief. This is the work we'll do during the workshop Finding Self Finding Love June 29-30th. I reduced the rate and schedule. Let's learn and grow together.

I decided I better post something on my other social media account because I hadn’t posted anything at all in two or three weeks. Then I decided... I would take a pic of what I wrote and share it over here. Hope it helps someone... I write it from many, many experiences. May God bless us all and His loving kindness find us where we are. #howlong #doingnothing #whatdoesitmean #whatdoesitmatter #livingtoday #writingtoday #dailywriting #goalsanddreams #whocaresanyway #isawthelight #isawthesign #isawsomething #dailyroutine #dailyroutines #whenitmatters #spring2018

February 16th 2020

I went to bed last night with a dull feeling of sadness. I clicked on my instagram just before I got into bed and saw the extremely sad news that Caroline Flack had committed suicide.

It was not that Caroline Flack was a great inspiration figure for me (although I did have a slight girl crush on her!) it was that she clearly was in such a dark and lonely place with a snow storm of negativity aimed at her through the media and social media that she felt unable to face another day.

Mental health is such a massive topic being given more light in the recent years yet it still seems that especially in social media people think that their cruel words don’t carry any weight.

I think part of the reason for me feeling so sad is that as Lincoln and Lois get closer to teen years I genuinely worry about how I navigate them through the world of online safety. The internet was in the early stages of 5 minute dial ups to log on with the computer making whirling noises at you whilst it did it when I was a teenager so social media was not a part of my young adult life.

I also worry about my children feeling alone and unable to reach out, or being the one to jump on a band wagon of been cruel to someone else without thinking about the ramifications of their actions.

It prompted me this morning to talk to my 10 year old about mental health, I’m not sure if he is too young but felt I want him to know it’s an open forum in our house, no shame or embarrassment if you do feel low or sad. We spoke about the fact that there are so many people out there fighting their own private battles and most importantly that you never know what is going on in someone else’s life so in Caroline’s own words... ‘in a world where you can be anything be KIND’

Lastly for anyone reading this I am always here with an open ear, no matter how busy, crazy or tired my life seems I will always make time for you. If you feel silly, ashamed or embarrassed I will never judge you. Mental health affects everyone in one way or another wether it is personally or someone very close to us.

You are not alone.

You are loved
