Each day we have a new beginning

Death & Dying
Monday morning, meeting a lady from a networking event I attended a few weeks ago. We’re sat in a cosy coffee shop and I’m drinking tea from a huge pot of loose leaf tea, eating lemon, chia seed and pistachio cake; so far, a pretty regular one to one follow up...
Overcoming Digital Distractions
In a world where there is seemingly an incessant stream of ‘noise’, it can be easy to lose focus, get distracted or feel overwhelmed. Having technology at our fingertips can be incredibly useful – it can make tasks quicker or easier, bring the world closer together...
Surrender
Surrender. When you hear the word surrender, what does it make you think? Giving up? Giving in? Or going with the flow? I believe your answer will depend on your level of consciousness. And before I get into this and you start to feel defensive, there’s nothing wrong...
Am I making myself clear?
Communication is a key life skill, yet not necessarily one that comes naturally to us. Poor communication can lead to all sorts of problems and situations and is often the cause of relationship breakdowns (in whatever form they take). Recently I had the experience of...
5 tips for Work Life Balance
Work life balance – the holy grail… It’s a busy, noisy world out there and for many people who are juggling work, family and other commitments, it can feel quite the challenge to balance it all – never mind trying to find time for the fun stuff! So how do we navigate...
The Old Man of Coniston
As I looked at the map and then at my phone, trying to reset the password for this stupid app, I could feel my resolve and confidence seeping away. We were only 20 minutes or so from the B&B and barely on the edge of the town and yet here we were, on a track,...
I want… (and how to get it!)
I want more income. I want better health. I want a nice house. I want to find my ideal partner. I want to grow my business. I want good relationships with friends and family. I want to go on more holidays. These are all perfectly reasonable requests and desires. Most...
Park Running
“Oh and remember it’s 2 laps” The Run Director was finishing announcing the instructions to the newbies and Park Run tourists (those who go round different locations to complete different Park Runs). “You’ll have enjoyed it so much the first time that you’ll want to...
6 Tips for turning a painful ending into a new beginning
As the door slams shut and you are left standing alone it can be difficult to see the positives of your current situation. Whether you are going through a separation, divorce or have been made redundant there is likely to be a sense of great loss. Love, self-worth,...
Because I’m worth it!
Do you remember the advert with this cringe-worthy strapline? Well, I’ve come to think differently about this now. Yes, it does seem a little over the top for personal hygiene products but actually it’s a good point. Why wouldn’t I want to invest in myself? Am I...
Self-care: more than skin deep
Self-care is more than just having a nice bubble bath and using good products on your skin (though that’s a good start!). If you look it up in a dictionary it might say something along the lines of taking care of yourself without medical or professional input. I think...
2020 – Just another year?
Wow! December already… another year gone by; another year approaching. 2020 hasn’t been quite the year I envisioned and I imagine a lot of other people would say the same. There have been ups and downs. Reflection. Learning. Disappointment. Simple pleasures. On first...

I took part in a Clarity in Motion walk after arriving at a place in my business where I wanted to make lots of changes but was feeling overwhelmed.
The structure of the guided tasks, the fantastic location and Rebecca’s calm and grounded demeanour combined in the most amazing few hours of realisation, planning, goal setting and motivation. I came away with a plan that I have kept to, clear goals and steps to achieve them, as well as an insight into possible pitfalls and problems that might arise.
Having time away from the office to stimulate the mind is well worth it and I certainly left with the clarity that I needed. The weather was also fab, the company was engaging and the cake in the tea shop was yummy. All-in-all a great way to gain the clarity to put plans into achion.
