May - is all about the flying

Ahh…my flying lady.
She pops up quite often, my lady in the sky.
Flying can symbolize so much.
Escape, freedom, thrills and dreams.
We all need a place to fly in our minds.
Sometimes we need to get away from where we are.
Sometimes we need to go somewhere special.
New heights give new perspectives to our ground lives.
Look how small that issue is from way up here.
Soaring across the sky can loosen ties and worries.
It can help us find new growth, new ways of seeing, and new solutions.
Where is she going?
I don’t think she knows and that is ok with her!
This month let your mind fly.
What do you see?
What are you thinking?
What new perspectives come through?
Feel the wind blow around you.
Feel the sunbeams on your skin.
See your world a little smaller.
A little respite from your day-to-day.
A little more time to fly with your dreams.
Where does it take you?
Where is it you like to go?

April - is all about the breathing

April 2nd - Some quiet time will help you make the best decision.

April 21st - When I listen to my own voice everything gets easy.


Who knew that breathing needed to be a thing?
A natural, instinctive, act of survival and yet I need to remind myself on a daily basis to just breathe. The art of breathing has become a mainstay for our home. With an easily, overly excitable noisy boy in the house the power of breath has become our family’s go to. “Do your breathing, take 6 breath’s, Mum I don’t think you’re doing your breathing” (cheeky bugger!). Yes to breathe can become everything for us in that very moment and it can be your own go to when things get too much. To sit and take the time and space to breathe, to catch your breath, to quiet all the noise, the spinning, the stress on your brain can bring you some peace, some quiet and some homegrown inner wisdom. When we are running around we hear so much, we see so much. We know a lot about what outside feels, believes, needs, knows, but we can easily lose track of own minds, our own thoughts, our own needs and stances. We can find ourselves chasing other people’s aspirations and expectations without realizing that they are in fact just that – other peoples! So if you can find the time to quieten the world around you and to sit and listen to your insides, your own voice – now is a great time to start.

March - is all about the Happy!

March is here and I am really looking forward to this. We are getting closer to the beginning of spring and you know what that means? “WINTER will soon be OVER” (proclaimed in celebratory Oprah voice). To get us in a lighter mood, this month is all about doing more of what makes us feel the internal happy dance. We are going to start getting clearer in our minds about what we really enjoy doing and making more space in our day for those things that make us smile!

To help get us started let’s finish these statements:

“I have always wanted to….”

And / or

“I wish I could do more…”

Try to let loose on this. Spend some time really brain storming the practical to the ridiculous and see where there are common threads. Are you already doing a lot of the things that make you happy? If you are then bravo – March is all about embracing that, but if you find that you have a whole list of things that don’t match your day to day, let’s think of some things you can introduce today to make them happen.

This is your month to say yes, yee-haw and yeppers to all of the good stuff and no, no, no to the things that are bringing you down. We are going to spend a whole month focusing on our energy lifters. I know we all have sensible, serious things that have to be done in our lives, but I can definitely think of time that I waste doing things that don’t need to be done, make me mad and swallow up my happy time.

Four whole weeks my friends! To focus on your happy spirit and look at how you can bring more of it into your day. I know right? You are very welcome!!
