When was the last time you celebrated something? I don’t mean a birthday necessarily, or an event like a promotion. I’m talking about the small wins: Making it to 5pm. Not losing your temper with someone who is really testing your patience. Finding your way through one of life’s curve balls. Every time someone attends one of …
Have things felt a bit complicated lately? There’s so much happening in the world at the moment, it would be easy to get swept up in the chaos of it all. When there’s a lot happening around you, you might feel like there’s a need to plough on and keep up. To make urgent decisions. …

Do you ever feel like you can’t keep up? Like it’s all just moving a bit too fast. That other people are strides in front. That somehow you’ve fallen behind. Or fallen short. I often liken the pace of life to that of a treadmill. Before we know it we’re hurtling along, striving for perfection, …

Do you ever find you get stuck with the same routine? It happens easily, and it’s not always a bad thing. It’s good to know where we are, what we like and what we’re doing. But sometimes, we fall into a rut. We do the same things. We wear the same things. We eat the same things. …
