How mindfulness is helping me with a debilitating illness: my story

It is a strange fact of life that the things that affect us most are often those that are out of our control. Four months ago I fell ill, suddenly and cripplingly. Over night I went from being a busy, active young woman to barely being able to stand. My body seemed to quadruple in […]

Lucky Dip!

What’s important?  What’s your priority?  Funny how the little things in life can take on too much importance, can niggle us, affect our whole waking day.

What is success?

What is success? In the distant sea-sick days of career ambition, I lived and breathed success.  Problem was I never stopped to ask myself precisely what form that success should take.  Never having excelled at school, I had time to make up.
