Hello friends! It's been a little while since we last spoke, but I wanted to send you a message of good luck for the new year. In some places it is already 2021, but where I am we are still hours away from that moment. You don't need me to tell you what a wild [...]
Before I go into this post, I just want to preface it by saying that I’m writing this in a low mood state. Writing is cathartic and I’m hoping by the end of this post I’ll feel lighter, but just to warn you, in case you too are in a dark place right now, that [...]
I've said this before, and no doubt I'll say it again, but it's hard to get what you want when you don't ask for it. You know by now that I'm exploring spirituality and getting into setting intentions, manifestation, and generally bettering myself through new means. A common thread within this field is asking for [...]
It seems as though all of the posts I have made throughout this year are inspired by some kind of revelation I'm having about my life (read: crisis) With a lot of spare time on my hands and not a lot of outside stimulation, I've been overthinking and revaluating more than usual. If you read [...]
This post seems a little too familiar to another one I recently published on this blog, and that's because I'm kind of going through the exact same thing - as I'm sure many of you are. As I'm writing this to you now, friends, the UK has gone into a second nationwide lockdown. While this [...]
A lot of the posts I publish on this blog are written in 'high' moments - as in, the times when I am feeling good about myself, motivation about my ideas and plans, or perhaps after some form of success. While I do feel like I get good content out of these moments, I also [...]
As someone who runs this self-development blog, I'm acutely aware of the way that my content might make someone feel. I write about self-development and self-improvement so much because it is an area that I'm obsessed with. As I've mentioned before, most of the content I consume in my free time is within this field [...]
Hello friends, and welcome to this week's instalment of my new mini-series. I hope you are having a relaxing and peaceful Sunday. It's been quite a heavy week on this blog, so I thought I'd do something simpler for this Spiritual Sunday. Today, I want to share with you five things that have brought me [...]
I am quite an opinionated person. This was something that I prided myself on when I was younger, as I thought it made me sound 'strong'. Really, it just made me sound like a dickhead. Now there's nothing wrong with expressing your opinions, obviously. But have you ever met someone who explicitly calls themselves 'opinionated' [...]
I spoke about coping mechanisms in my most recent post, where I was addressing one particular bad habit that I've developed over the years. While I don't want to get too repetitive here, I'm not quite finished with this topic of conversation. I've been thinking a lot about coping mechanisms, habits, and the things we [...]
