Reflection #39: Complete

19th March 2018

Quick note: You are enough. Nothing and no one can fulfil this but yourself. You are complete, just as you are – with or without that thing you keep telling yourself you need; that behaviour you try to perfect; that longing you try to fill; that space you try to force yourself into. Start with…

Reflection #38: Breathing Life

15th March 2018

Quick note: This is an everyday lesson, an everyday practice. Be weary of the body of words and thoughts you build up of yourself. Is this a body you can dance with or is this a body you fight with? Does this body truly reflect who you are or does this body only project a…

Reflection #37: Cycle

12th March 2018

Quick note: How long does it take for you to realise that it was love all along? I always find myself back here, regardless of where I am currently placed in life. Even among the most harrowing of events and painful memories, this truth rings true and pure. There is always and will be love.…

Reflection #35: Here

6th March 2018

Quick note: It’s easy to become sidetracked with what is trying to stare you down whether what you are faced with is a physical, tangible thing or not. It’s easy to lose yourself in it all: who you are, where you are and how you are. It’s all really focused on you – but not…

Celebratory Moments in 2017 [mostly in pictures]

31st December 2017

This year has been a year of venturing into the unknown, learning more of who I am and my caring habits, taking multiple leaps of faith, exercising trust in my journey and witnessing the same in my friends and family. This is a special post where I want to express some of my most precious…

Reflection #34: Self-talk

26th December 2017

Quick note: A massive difference I have made in my life is being attentive to my internal dialogue. We spend a lot of time in our heads. Sometimes it’s background mumbles, other times it’s plaintive alarms and oft times it’s a conversation. But how regularly do you catch what you’re saying to yourself in those…

Reflection #33: Body-talk

22nd December 2017

Quick note: How well attuned are you with your body? This year I have been putting into practice a learning of listening to my body while in motion or in stillness. The more I practice, I find my body communicates with me, understands my deepest desires and reminds me of where my answers lie. There have been crystal…

Reflection #32: Presently, Where You Are

18th December 2017

Quick note: How often, if ever, do you consciously choose to be present in a day? If you rarely make time to do this, then December is a great month for taking stock of where you are and who you have become. Choosing to be present means choosing to be in tune with yourself and…

Reflections Mind, Power, Self-evaluation

Reflection #31: Power

15th December 2017

Quick note: Of recent I’ve been asking myself this question, re-evaluating where my attention goes, where my energy is spent and what effect it has or had on my development. Being an individual who battles with varying anxieties, insecurities and fears on a daily – like most people do – to the point of paralysis…
