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 […]

To quote Tam Hunt, in the blog post The Hippies Were Right: It’s All about Vibrations, Man!: “All things in our universe are constantly in motion, […]
I am not a man basher and I have no time for women who are (as much as I am not a woman basher and have no time for men who are). However, I have witnessed far too many men attempting to undermine their partner or steal their thunder… and, having been on the receiving […]
