This blog was written on 13 November: Be grateful for the people in life who add real value to your existence. People come and go in life. Friends and family grow closer, and also drift apart. It is a normal process in life. Sometimes we lose people to death. This can be particularly difficult to…

Blog: Thanksgiving 2
Happy Thanksgiving to those celebrating. Last year, I wrote a blog on Thanksgiving and the importance of gratitude in general. The message of ‘The act of saying thank you for small –and big –things that we do for each other, is a good way to demonstrate that you still appreciate somebody rather than assuming that…
Blog: Fear the future?
We cannot control the future and that is something many of us struggle with. The lack of control over our future and where we may end up is something that can cause great fear for people and it can really hold someone back. Your worries about the future can spill over and stifle the present….

To focus on yourself is viewed by many as selfishness and quite ignorant. Yet these views are completely untrue in the case of self care. Putting this into simple terms: if you do not…
Blog: Live long and prosper
Lately I have been plagued by writers block, thus has affected me in many ways, from holding up my blog posts, my creative writing and work on the new wellbeing courses. It’s very frustrating, yet its the topic of writing itself that’s managed to help me write today. Ironic, yes, but right now I am…
