Stress Relief with a Mindful First Aid Kit

How are you holding up? Needing some stress relief? I’m noticing the impact of the relentless, background stress on many. Anxiety symptoms popping up, difficulty concentrating, heaps of procrastination (endless phone scrolling anyone?) and lots of “freezing” in the face of overwhelm. My own energy levels have been sinking a little and it’s been harder to stay focused on my writing (long overdue blog here!). These are early signs for me that my stress levels are on the rise.

Beat the Winter Blues – Making Winter Work for You

Well, we’re back here again. Winter, the season of ultimate yin – cold, dark, hidden, internal - and for many a time of dread. But this season is so important. So how can we make winter work for us, and beat the winter blues? I used to hate winter and couldn’t wait for the longer, warmer days. I would be sluggish, dull, craving sunlight, and battling it every step of the way. My relationship with the seasons transformed when [...]

Late Summer, Self Care

How’s Your Harvest?

In Chinese Medicine, there is an extra season - Late Summer - which is associated with the Earth element. It corresponds to this time of harvest, as the peak of summer moves into the decline of autumn. In some traditions, it is also the time of transition between all of the seasons - the still point as one ends and the next begins. It is a time of nourishment, of gathering and storing. It is the last chance of [...]

7 Tips to Stay Positive in Tricky Times

How to be hopeful, fulfilled and functioning when there's no end in sight We’ve said goodbye to life in lockdown and normal life is resuming. Or is it? The adrenaline-fuelled, all-hands-on-deck, “unprecedented times” have passed, but we're still a long way from normality. In a time of crisis, we usually have the focus, energy, support and the cortisol boost to deal with it. And then we get the relief that it’s all over. Right now, it feels like [...]

How to make the most of this summer – despite COVID 19

Well, according to the Chinese solar terms, we’ve now moved into summer. And once again I'm writing about the benefits of tuning into the energy of the season, whilst we’re still in circumstances that make that tricky. Perhaps the transition of “Stay Home” into “Stay Alert” gives us a little more opportunity to be outside. However, we're still living with the reality of a pandemic so this summer is likely to be an odd one. But, as I’ve said [...]
