After noticing how the testing energies of the last month have affected people, me included at times, I was in the mood to write a really light-hearted and positive mood-engendering article!
I confess I’m not usually a fan of the “10 things….” style blog posts but I’ve finally caved in for the sake of some fun. So here it is, short and simple. My guide to essential and life-enhancing self-talk that deflects all the questions and thoughts that can drag you down during a normal day:
I am fabulous – reverses any self-criticism.
It really doesn’t matter – an immediate stress and anxiety-reliever when you can feel the tension building over even the pettiest things.
Not everyone may like me, but I LOVE me – an important reminder when you catch yourself people-pleasing rather than standing in your own power.
In this moment, I make a fresh start – especially for when you’re beating yourself up for doing something or not doing something; yet again.
I am an essential part of a beautiful mystery – perfect when nothing is making sense and you feel unimportant.
I deserve this coffee/chocolate/nap/<insert your favourite treat here> – the ultimate guilt-buster, guaranteed to magnify your pleasure!
There are no limitations to what I can do, be or have – knocks out all those heavyweight “I can’ts”, and “I’ll nevers”.
Everything is perfect – useful for all sorts of occasions when things aren’t quite going to plan.
It’s ok to say no – when you’re tempted to agree to the thing or person that you know you have absolutely no time or energy for.
I choose to play BIG – for every moment of every day.
There are occasions when it’s not only acceptable but absolutely essential to love the sound of your own voice!

A coastal walk revealed something magical 🌊
As the sea spray rose, shapes began to form, first dancing figures… then a face. Zooming in, I saw the laughing Old Woman of the Sea looking back at me. Take a look… 👁️

As we leave the Easter weekend, this is what my heart is singing:
"We all live under the same sky
We all will live, we all will die
There is no wrong, there is no right
The circle only has one side"
- Lyrics from "Side" by Travis
Full Moon in Libra today🌕
A moment of completion and rebalancing.
Where do you feel out of alignment?
What’s disrupting your sense of harmony - fear, relationships, boundaries?
Listen to your body and intuition. They already know the way back.

The natural world is always in conversation with you.
When you’re grieving, it shows you life continues.
When you feel alone, it keeps you company.
Whatever needs healing, the earth offers its quiet balm 🌿

You can’t fully shine your light without meeting your shadow. They’re not separate - they shape each other.
It takes courage to go there, but that’s where transformation begins.
