    Daily Practices that keep you Healthy, Happy and Sane

    What daily practices do you have that keep you happy, healthy and sane?

  • OnTheBeach – You Know What To Do…Why Aren’t You Doing It?

    Last week I went for my regular Acupuncture session, and we were discussing my health since I’d last seen my acupuncturist. I mentioned that I hadn’t been sleeping well for a couple of weeks, and started to explore why. About 10 minutes later, it occurred to me that I had got out of the habit…

    Last week I talked about taking recovery time when you needed it which seemed to hit a chord with many of you, this week I want to take the subject even further and talk about avoiding BURNOUT! You see, despite having 2 days off last week, I still ended the week feeling exhausted, and by…

    Most weeks I notice a theme developing in coaching sessions, where all my clients that week (and often me, too) are dealing with a particular issue, whether it’s focusing on self-care and rest, taking action, blasting away fears or a myriad of other themes. It’s not often that a theme runs into 2 weeks though…but…

    OnTheBeach: Self-Care Is Non-Negotiable

    So this afternoon I was trying to work myself up to doing this newsletter…and struggling because I am super-tired and really want to sit in front of the fire reading my book.

  • July Daily Practice: 10 Minutes of Yoga

    Whenever I ask myself what Daily Practice I need to add into my life, Yoga is always the answer! For a few brief months last year, I did manage to do a 10 minute yoga practice every day, and I felt better for it. My body felt stronger, I was calmer, and I seemed to…

  • March Daily Practice: Trust Yourself

    One of my ‘Beach Cards‘ says: “If you really loved, accepted, honoured and believed in yourself, what would change?” One of the ladies on my facebook page said ‘everything‘, which led me to decide that the Daily Practice for March will be ‘Trust Yourself’. When you trust yourself, you are loving, accepting, honouring and believing…
