How’s your day going ? I was on a walk today and thinking about the post a few weeks ago around Grief and those fried egg moments . I decided to write about it a bit more in a blog . Link below . I hope your day brings whatever you need ❤️

Death and dying is a topic that most people will shy away from as its scary, sad and very final. Because it is a taboo subject when it does happen to us we don’t know how to react or feel and clients often tell me how they SHOULD feel and react. But is there a right way to manage death and grieve?...

The trees are showing us it’s time to let go . They do it every year as they are attuned to their growth and development. Knowing that they can have a rest in the winter and be recharged for Spring.

Letting go of things we are holding onto that are making us unhappy can be tricky as sometimes we aren’t even sure what it is it where it’s come from .

Counselling can help you work through these winter moments to find your Spring again 🌷❤️

⛅️ I love clouds and they really remind me of my childhood. Reminding me the most of a day when I lost someone very close to me .
🍳 When I saw this cloud I had a big fried egg moment- what’s fried egg moment you might be thinking . It’s when your memories and love for that person (your yolk) overtakes you and your white (being your everyday life ).
You remember them ,emotions come and then it passes and your yolk goes back to the normal size and you go about your day.
Grief is something that we all move through in our own way and 42 years on the fried egg moments still come and I love it when they do ❤️
