It’s easy for it to happen, isn’t it? It starts with that one lovely, relaxing glass of wine which tells you it’s time to unwind. The day is over and now it’s time to chill – the rest of the evening is yours after a busy, task filled day! And when you’ve drained the...

Not another Covid Stone

Brenda (not her real name), sat opposite me last June, feeling fed up and upset at how she’d let things slip. She was heading into summer and none of her clothes fit her anymore. She felt fat, frumpy, and frustrated because she’d never been this heavy before and she...

A letter to my 40’something self

I’m 56 years old and finished with menopause a long time ago. I had an early menopause, although I didn’t know it at the time! In my early 40’s, I felt crap. My energy was in my boots and my motivation wasn’t much better, despite pretty good health and decent...

Pause to ask – How many days are left?

So how many hours and days are left? In this week, this month, this year, this Life? We can pick a number but we really don't know.... And that's sort of scary so we pretend and don't go there - pretending that we have all the time in the world, forever and ever...

Words of wisdom from the naive

A little bird told me and so I thought I'd pass it on: If you're anxious - that thing you're fretting about, is probably not that serious... Yet, ordinary, little things can be beautiful and important so pay attention to them.   Good decisions are rarely made in...

Noticing the signs

The signs are everywhere really and despite that we don't see them. Or maybe we ignore them because we don't like what they say. We don't want to hear that we should stop or even pause because at times, it seems impossible to do so. We don't want to see the costs even...
