Sometimes it’s not easy
to love yourself or your life.

But when I consider all the
other options
I realise there’s nothing
better than at least
try hard to love.

I can’t think of much in common
between trying and love.
Love is so total and trying is
an effort that ha...

I realised in my own life that even if I live 90% in integrity that 10% fucks up everything.

Often that 10% is being involved with commitments that don’t serve you (anymore).

The threshold of backing off form commitment, is life’s invitation to live in 100% integrity...

Sometimes it’s a simple letting go of a misunderstanding that hurt you,

but didn’t twist your life upside down.

Sometimes it’s finding a way to quite the echo of unkind words or deeds

that keep on spinning around and around in your mind.

Sometimes it’s recovering fr...

Yesterday my mentor told me I should step into a beginner’s mind if I wanted to gain the benefits she has to offer me.

How to not be ruled by worries that lead to doubt your decisions?
How to...

Your worst case scenario never happened 

and probably never will. 

Your fear doesn’t always lie. But when it does 

it’s a big fat ugly one 

that spins your spine around empty air 

living you without ground. 

And yet,

It is SAFE to open up to your pain.

To risk chasing hopes of...

Over the past week I heard myself saying this to both myself and my clients

You move faster when you slow down

Think about the long run. There’s nothing there that doesn’t exit here.

Each time you fall and realise this too is part of the web of life - you wake up.

Each time you choose the curious way rather than the easy (or finely rehearsed) way - you wake up.

Go to the edge of the most
Contracted place in your heart. 

The same edge you feel you really can't let-go.

An extra glass of coffee/wine you just know won’t make you shine;
Repetit...
