thoughts from me to youHow do you know what’s right?
Have you ever asked yourself, 'What is the right question'? or 'How do I know what's right?'. I have been asking myself that a lot over the past few weeks. In the past month I've decided to leave my job, then decided to stay with my job but have applied for promotion...
Using Yoga for Relaxation, not weight loss and fitness
Particularly in the Western world, we have developed an emphasis on using yoga for weight loss and fitness. Don't get me wrong, it's not necessarily a bad thing, but for me, yoga is all about relaxation. Yes, it is possible to get super fit using only yoga, you only...
Irritability & Anger – What it means & how to manage it

How to recognise and neutralise panic
Ever get that feeling of sheer panic come over you and not really understand at what point it all got so stressful? As many of you know, last year I moved home to England after eight months in Italy, quit the family business (and my inheritance in the process) and...
Why you’re missing out on life (and how to change that)
So, I was talking to Ash over at The Middle Finger Project recently and she reminded me of something - Life's all about the buzz. Whilst we all have responsibilities and we all have to earn enough to put food on the table and pays the bills, it means very little if we...
