Last week a lovely friend of mine gave me a little bag of Crystals... Such a wonderful and thoughtful gift (thank you so much honey!)...which reminded me that I have a collection of crystals in storage (I have loads of stuff in storage...long story lol) that I haven't seen for about 5 years! Whilst clearing… Continue reading DIY Crystal Healing

Time to Hydrate
I've never been a huge fan of water, preferring tea, coffee and Pepsi as a way to hydrate. But, i'm fully aware that I should drink more water. I even have a collection of water bottles lol. I know all the benefits of being hydrated, so i've been trying to have a glass every morning… Continue reading Time to Hydrate
The Thing About Yoga Is…
...it looks so simple, but it's bloody hard 🤣 For Christmas my husband bought me a book on Yoga...by New Years Eve it had been put on the book shelf and there it has sat ever since. Why? Because even reading it, looking at the pictures, was exhausting! As I was looking at all the… Continue reading The Thing About Yoga Is…
Doing Nothing…
Ok, well, not actually doing nothing...I watched a TED Talk. I used to watch loads until I discovered Podcasts, so it was nice to watch one again...its been a while. Stumbled across this gem by Andy Puddicombe (who I subsequently find out is the co-creator of Headspace - thanks Google) which is well worth the… Continue reading Doing Nothing…
Colouring for Adults
When my kids were little I would buy them colouring books and pencils/pens. We'd all sit down for a colouring in session...but within 20 minutes, i'd be the one left colouring while they'd all gone off to find something more interesting to do lol As a child, I was never much good at drawing, but… Continue reading Colouring for Adults
A Good Old Natter
I love to chat...probably too much lol. When I was at school I was always getting in trouble for not listening and chatting to my friends *sniggers* Yesterday I met a friend for coffee at Baskervilles Coffee House. It's a great place...small...very friendly staff and good food (Gluten free & Vegan cakes!). Their Avocado on… Continue reading A Good Old Natter
End of Month Review – January
Well...its been a funny old month lol...hectic...lots of drama...a new baby...and more self care than i've had in years. Some things have been really successful, others...not. The one off things have worked well, but some of the things i've tried to add to my routine haven't stuck. Heres a run down... Start the day with… Continue reading End of Month Review – January
The 52 Lists Project
Last week I wrote a post about my love list and how making lists can be life changing (according to the BBC). We've decided to move house, so as i've been packing stuff up, to go into storage (to make the house look less cluttered lol) I came across a book that I think my… Continue reading The 52 Lists Project
Quiet Contemplation
It was absolutely freezing today, but, at lunch time the sun came out and I found myself actually enjoying the cold fresh air and the stillness of the River Medway. Sometimes, just taking a moment to stop, look around and be present is just all you need (until the seagulls start sqwarking! lol)
What Children Teach Us
Really hectic day today...a new carpet being fitted in my bedroom meant that the whole room needed to be cleared by lunchtime...then throw a 2.5 year old into the mix (our grandson) and you have a recipe for disaster...or so I thought. But...he thoroughly enjoyed helping Grand-Dad dismantle the bed, had no problem being shut… Continue reading What Children Teach Us
