Halfway through January, I’m looking at my diary, silently appraising how I’m doing. More specifically, what’s happening with my New Year resolutions. I won’t tell you what the verdict is, but the mere fact that I’m using the word “verdict” goes to show my biggest problem. Probably yours too. Self-doubt. Criticism. Lack of confidence. When [...]

It doesn’t happen to me very often. Just as well, because few things cause me as high levels of pain and distress as communication failure does.

Fluster. Grapple. Tantalize. More…evocative verbs, apparently, useful for getting out of the rut and piquing the reader’s interest — one of many heuristic (now that’s a good word!) processes I was taught at a recent workshop for writers. Other techniques included deconstructing and rearranging ideas, words and sentences; experimenting with minuscule and gigantic stationery (every [...]

Mercury is no longer retrograde, time to communicate! But how do we communicate? How do we express ourselves at work, at home, in our relationships?

Women are awakening to their wisdom and feminine gifts: deep, embodied wisdom; exquisite beauty and love; immense capacity to sense and feel; the gift of natural healing; the power of creation. There’s a new way to success and fulfilment that doesn’t involve comparison [...]
Perhaps it’s because of the recent Scorpio Full Moon and all those planets going retrograde. Maybe it’s because of the dire, wintry weather we’ve been having. Or maybe it’s just life (you know about my recent bereavement). Whatever the reason, I’ve been very mellow lately, feeling the sadness of transience and loss, wondering about the [...]

Updated: 18th August 2017 Sometimes, it’s silent. Sometimes, nagging. Either way, it’s a killer of relationships and you’ve probably harboured it yourself. Perhaps you’re feeling it right now.

Around this time of the year, shopping is the last thing I want to do. There’s just too much pressure to buy, overwhelmingly so. As though not having the right Christmas accoutrements could be fatal.
