The world we are currently living in is one I no longer recognise – and I know that others feel the same way, too. It’s become unbearably complicated and messy, and planning ahead seems pointless, given that the ‘truth’ changes from one minute to the next. And although corruption appears to be at an all-time […]
“Am I destined to be single and alone for the rest of my life?” This is a question I have been asked, several times, during the past twelve months. And, though it has to be said that the most common reason that anyone anywhere in the world uses an intuitive service is to ask about […]
A friend of mine had decided that she wanted to lose some weight – and so she joined a number of social media groups and checked out a whole collection of websites, dedicated to the very subject. And it all became very complicated and time-consuming. “Why are you doing all of this?” I asked her. […]
Now, more than ever, it is imperative that we become more personally empowered. The problem with the term ‘personal empowerment’ is that it is overused and smacks of glitzy self-help hype. So, let’s try putting it another way… such as ‘better equipped’, or ‘stronger from within’. It is resilience that we need, as expressed by […]
I needed to achieve a particular goal, so I wrote it down on a piece of paper and left it where I could easily see it, every day. In truth, the main purpose of this was to reassure myself! “I am attracting a lovely home with a garage, that is pet friendly, in a convenient […]
Today I attended my usual Saturday morning fitness classes – a boot-camp session followed by thirty minutes of high intensity training.

I hated […]
More than at any other time in our recent past, we need to remember what love is – and how it behaves. And I am not referring to infatuation or sexual attraction – I am talking about love. It is so easy to throw the word around with abandon, incorrectly attaching it to situations that […]
A young, fit, healthy woman I know has been obsessively afraid of Covid-19. She has been doubly vaccinated, and continues to take test after test, just to make sure that she doesn’t have it. I recently asked her what she was most afraid of, and she replied “of dying”. She exercises regularly, doesn’t overeat, and […]
Overthinking is exhausting – and it can lead us almost to the edge of madness. It isn’t ‘ordinary’ thinking – it is intense and relentless… and not everyone engages in it. If you are reading this, I bet that you have been told at least once during your life that you “think too much”. I […]
In my head, the world has changed. I am not living on the same planet that I was even six months ago. Everything feels and looks different – and not in a good way. And I have recognised that I am grieving; even typing this threatens to painfully drag the deeply buried tears up through […]
