“Health is not found in a single act, but in the quiet rhythm of daily choices.”
Which is lucky… because I definitely had some chocolate delivered that have since all disappeared.

Over the past few years, I’ve realised that life moves in very real seasons – not just weather, but energy.

Summer is for roaming.
Winter is for working.

And recently, these last month or so have been a deeply focused, grounded “winter” season for me… the kind that quietly bears fruit behind the scenes.

But here’s the part that feels most useful to share:
we are not meant to hold the same pace all year.

Your wellbeing shifts.
Your focus shifts.
Your capacity shifts.
Often we look different.
And that is not only normal, it is healthy.

Living in this region has made that rhythm even clearer – the highs and lows of heat, the natural pull to take breaks in summer and rebuild in the cooler months. When you honour those shifts instead of fighting them, life becomes calmer, more sustainable, and strangely more productive. I remember the anxiety it used to induce in me spending so much time away not ‘working’ in a traditional sense.

So if your own season right now looks different from a few months ago, you’re not behind – you’re adapting.

Working with your seasons rather than against them is one of the quietest forms of self-care.

And yes… the photos from the summer season are definitely cuter, but that all I’ve right now for now- unless you’d like scrub, dogs, or in the ‘office’ hahah

I saw this on and loved it so reposting ….. Beauty is not just about looking a certain way. It is about how caring for your body and environment supports your mental, emotional, and physical health.
True wellness includes beauty because the practices behind it often enhance well-being. Beauty is wellness when it is intentional, nourishing, and reflective of your authentic self. It is not about trends, comparison, or performance. It is about practices that support your mind, body, and environment.
Skin health as a window to internal health: Skin health reflects your internal state. Hydration, nutrition, stress levels, sleep, and hormones all show up in your skin.
Consistent skincare is not vanity. It protects against oxidative stress, supports barrier function, and can even improve mood when you see and feel healthy skin.

Self-presentation and confidence: Taking care of your appearance can influence how your brain perceives yourself. Research shows that self-grooming and dressing in ways that align with your values can boost self-esteem, reduce stress, and improve social confidence. Confidence itself has physiological benefits, lowering cortisol and supporting resilience.

Environment and beauty rituals: Creating a beautiful, tidy, and inspiring space impacts your nervous system.
Pleasant environments reduce stress, encourage mindfulness, and make self-care practices feel more nourishing.

Rituals as mindfulness in motion: Beauty routines like cleansing, moisturizing, or styling can be slow, deliberate rituals that anchor you in the present. These rituals act as micro-meditation, lowering sympathetic nervous system activity and improving mental clarity.
Alignment with values and expression: Beauty can also be a form of self-expression that communicates your identity and aligns with your personal values. When it is intentional, it contributes to purpose and meaning,

Yesterday, I had the absolute pleasure of co-hosting a truly in-depth consultation alongside the wonderful Bridget Hancock , the author ‘Live Like a Lobster.’ Bridget is not only a dear friend but an incredible holistic practitioner. Watching her guide a tricky client through a complex, full-spectrum health journey- covering everything from physical health issues to emotional and family dynamics- was absolutely inspiring. Her expertise in functional medicine and holistic care is truly extraordinary and most importantly how to draw from each of the influencing factor to create a comprehensive informed treatment route. I’m so grateful she’s part of my professional network, and I can’t recommend her enough to anyone looking for that kind of comprehensive support.

I couldn’t help adding some more issues of her uber chic book in some gorgeous locations

After a full day buried in the less than glamorous back office work (vital, but rarely photogenic – I mean, who wants to see photos of me doing data protection, service agreements, and bookkeeping? lol), I’m offsetting it with something easier on the eyes and a little scroll down the Instagram hole… basically delaying the inevitable effort required to look cute for filming tomorrow.

Home alone this weekend avoiding Halloween parties (dressing up like that is really not for me) so I’m getting a little work done and having some down time with the girls. After having three experiences with amazing volcanoes over the past few months, a documentary by comedian Dara O Briain seemed like a good choice to learn a little more.

This first picture is watching Stromboli erupt in real time and it was utterly fascinating – such a wonderful experience and puts our tiny selves in such perspective.

Did you know Stromboli has been erupting for almost 2,000 years continuously, like a Roman candle….

Learning about the multitude of ways a volcano can kill you including pyroclastic flows - new words every day.

And Vulcano - the Roman god of fire and metalwork but now dormant - the volcano I got cut off from climbing this summer.

Anyhow keep learning kids 🌋✨

Combine here with some fun moment - include mini tornado which turned into a Wolf of Wall Street Yacht moment….

When you wake up late after a very night sleep hoping to be production but finding yourself on Instagram…..anyhow with some of the serious conversations posted lately, I thought I’d break things up on the grid with something a little lighter from the archives….

First, I’ve missed these guys so much - so happy to be home and can’t wait to see you all soon.

Second, it’s about that time to start planning the next one of these, me thinks…

And this time, I’ve got such an exciting twist after finding something so cool on my travels - maybe a new book, or perhaps a whole new theme. Just need to settle on the date and location!

Therapy has been a part of my life in different ways over the years. Sometimes it’s been a lifeline through challenge; other times, a space for exploration - to understand myself more deeply, to stretch, to evolve.

The idea that therapy is only for when something is wrong feels increasingly outdated. In reality, it can be one of the most life-affirming investments a person can make - a space to look inward with honesty, curiosity, and compassion.

Good therapy doesn’t give you answers. It helps you hear your own voice more clearly. It creates the conditions for greater awareness, healthier relationships, and a steadier sense of self.

Sometimes the most transformative work happens in the quieter phases - when life feels relatively stable, yet there’s a desire to expand, to grow, to understand the subtle patterns that shape how we move through the world.

And even if you’ve written off therapy in the past, it’s worth remembering there isn’t just one way in. There are so many different therapeutic modalities - relational, creative, somatic, experiential - each offering something unique.

From talk therapy to EMDR, somatic work, SE, and brainspotting, there are approaches that don’t even require you to speak if you don’t want to. Sometimes the work happens beneath words - through the body, through presence, through simply allowing something to shift.

For even the most resistant of us, there is usually something that clicks, given the right space, timing, and approach.

Therapy, in that sense, isn’t about fixing what’s broken. It’s about deepening the relationship you have with yourself - so that whatever comes next, you meet it with more clarity, kindness, and capacity.

Although posting this at the airport about to fly back to Dubai after a long time on the road and a very full but mixed time of late - I feel like it be a good time to book some Brainspotting myself to help clear out my subconscious!!!!
