Yes, Positivity Matters, but Am I Happy?

Yes, Positivity Matters, but am I Happy?

Asking why positivity matters is a non-starter. I mean, of course it matters. But, it isn’t the whole picture. Only part of it. I want to look at how positivity and happiness gel with each other. To look at positivity from a different angle. I don’t want to diminish its value, in fact, what I’m hoping for is that we will take it to an entirely different level. Step up positivity’s game, with a little bit of help from a friend (ps. that friend is Purpose).Read More

It’s Ok To Just Do Your Best

There is definitely something to be said for healthy competition, but I do believe we also need to understand that it’s more than ok to just do your best. There are many people out there that will flare up like a cobra and tell me how ‘if you’re not first, you’re last’. But, this is not intended to disregard healthy competition. At all! This is more about us as individuals and how we can be way too hard on ourselves. And, a little bit about how we should never make people feel small about their efforts. Wink, wink.

How to Find Truth, and Love, in the Stillness

Be still, and listen. There is a soft, persistent noise in the stillness. A voice in the silence. This may sound contradictory by any reasonable standards, but I want to talk about how the stillness allows us to open up to our inner voice. The voice that has no vocal cords. The voice that is only heard within us. This voice can be both soft and gentle, and loud and obnoxious at the same time. It is the voice who’s message is more valuable than all the others that we place higher value on.

If Love Is The Answer Why Isn’t It Easier?

If love really is the answer let’s look at why that might be, and why it isn’t always so easy. I mean, beyond the niceties and the sentiment, the ooh’s and ahh’s of love, what makes it ‘the answer’?

We all want to be loved, but do we realize the significance of giving, or being love ourselves? I believe that love is the answer, but that we need to tune in to what that really means and what role we have to play in the sharing of it. If we want living from a place of love to be easier we have to understand our own role in it.

Can We Find the Silver Lining when Feeling Hopeless?

First, let me start by reminding you that every single person on this planet, no matter how positive, feels hopeless sometimes. It’s perfectly normal. We don’t have the answers to many of life’s questions and we don’t know what tomorrow may bring. It’s completely understandable that we feel this way sometimes. This doesn’t sound like a great way to start an uplifting blog post, but perspective is a powerful thing! Knowing you’re not the only one feeling these emotions is also a powerful thing. So, please remember that you are not alone.

How to Know When Your Intuition is Talking to You

Intuition is something I’ve always felt drawn to and guided by in this life. What I am finding is that the more I travel along my own personal growth journey the more I find myself guided, and the more intrigued I am by my own intuition. I believe the reason I am here writing these blogs is because I trusted my intuition. I trusted my quietly persistent voice within. Do you have the same relationship with your intuition? Or, are you still wondering how to identify intuition?

How to Like Yourself First: When Self-Love Feels Too Hard

I often write about self-love and the value there is in loving yourself. What we don’t often discuss is how we get to self-love. In other words, what are the steps to get there when we don’t even feel like we ‘like’ ourselves? This is about answering the question – how to like yourself the way you are?

Why Journaling Daily leads to a Deeper Understanding of Self

If you’re thinking ‘I already know myself’, I would like to suggest that we can ALL get to know ourselves on a deeper level through the practise of journaling daily. It goes without saying that understanding ourselves on a deeper level gives us the knowledge to live a more well rounded and happy life. Plus, journaling is free, so you have nothing to lose by trying it out.

Number One Goal: Learn To Love Yourself

Self-Care is seen as a bit of a luxury, let’s be honest. It’s seen as hours spent in front of the mirror applying masks, creams and make-up. Or, foot spa’s and massages. First of all, provided you aren’t spending more time on this than your everyday responsibilities, what’s wrong with any of this?! Nothing. What I’m here to talk about, though, is where the lines get blurred between what I call Self-Care and what I call Self-Love. We are talking about learning to love yourself. Self-Love is foundational. It is essential. And, it is sorely lacking in most of us. Let’s chat Self-Love!
