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 [...]
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 [...]
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' [...]
It's been a while since I've written anything for my blog, and that kind of ties in with the title today. We're often called to make boundaries for the sake of our mental and emotional health, sometimes even our physcial too. Setting boundaires is a loaded statement for me, as it's something that makes me [...]
You don't need me to tell you how weird 2020 has been so far, surely? For those of us in the UK, it seems that some kind of normalcy is desperately trying to come back to us since shops, pubs and restaurants have reopened. While this has not gone without it's faults, it was a [...]
How are you supposed to live without an open heart? This is a question I've seen loads when reading self-help and exploring things more spiritual, but I never really paid it much mind. I mean, 'open your heart' - what does that actually mean? In case you're interested in astrology, I'm a Pisces sun and [...]
The current news has effected so many people in more ways than I think we can imagine. The murder of George Floyd is just one of the many examples we have seen over the past few years of police brutality and open racism. It is disgusting that this is not a one-off event and without [...]
As you know, I'm someone who is obsessed with self-improvement - it's the basis for this entire website after all! I've recently been having some revelations when it comes to my thoughts and behaviours, which has made things very interesting when it comes to the work I want to do on myself. I genuinely believe [...]
I've recently been exploring spirituality and intuition, and I have to say that I'm really happy to be on this journey right now. After spending time reading self-help books, listening to podcasts and following other people's advice I've started to notice patterns within myself. The more I learn about myself, the more open I'm feeling [...]
You know that iconic scene from Love Actually - one of the best films of all time, don't fight me on it - about Joni Mitchell? Emma Thompson's character is listening to Joni Mitchell while wrapping presents, and is explaining to her bastard of a husband (no, I'll never get over it) played by Alan [...]
