I hear a lot the words ‘Your Strong'

When we are in a positive, happy, fun loving space, those words leave us feeling empowered, superhuman, 'I'm doing good'. The worlds my Oyster, we dance through life enjoying the moments.

When we are in a crisis and we need some help and support. These words can be negative.

I have found that when I need support, kindness and compassion, when I've gained enough courage to ask for someone's help and I hear the words' 'Your strong'. I crumble inside, I wither and feel empty! Really I do, I get that hollow feeling in my stomach. I feel like shouting, Yes I'm strong, yet right now I'm not, I need some help, I don't say these words, I become quiet and find myself agreeing with advice that I'm not actually listening to.

To be told you're strong in a crisis, can leave you feeling as though you should not be asking for help. That you should be able to 'deal' with the issues, even if you feel they are bigger than you. That your knowledge and coping mechanisms are not beneficial to you, they are just they are a bit wonky right now, all your abilities still exist, they are overshadowed by current issues, past issues, issues you can't do anything about (or think you can't do anything about). We all, each and everyone of us, need support at different times in our lives, for differing reasons and intensity.

The next time a friend. a client, family member or a total stranger asks for support, consider your words, acknowledge they are in crisis, confused and frightened. If you can give a hug and reassurance.

Use the words

That's unlike you, you must be wobbling
Lets see if we can unravel this together
I'm here, I'm listening, I'll work alongside you to unravel this mess. Yes, you are strong, right now you need someone to stand with you.... or anything along those lines, as long as your intent is authentic and true, your support will bring positive results with the person losing nothing, gaining insight and (whoop whoop) a crisis defeated.

Remember we don't all ask for help in the same way, Listen and Hear what is being said.

We are stardust, intricately woven into the cosmic fabric, for the atoms that compose our beings were forged in the fiery cores of long-gone stars. In every breath we take, we inhale the essence of the universe, and in every step we take, we dance to the rhythm of nature's ancient symphony. We are not separate from nature; we are nature itself, a magnificent embodiment of the universe's ongoing creation.

19/06/2023

Summer solstice, that enchanting moment when the celestial ballet of the sun, moon, and earth unveils a mesmerising spectacle of perfect alignment. It is a profound reminder of the symphony that resonates throughout the cosmos, reflecting the interconnectedness of all things.

In this harmonious dance of celestial bodies, we witness the radiant sun embracing our world with its golden rays, while the moon gracefully illuminates the night sky, casting a gentle glow upon our dreams. As we stand in awe of this celestial choreography, we are called to contemplate the intricate tapestry of existence, where each thread, from the tiniest blade of grass to the vast expanse of the universe, weaves together a grand symphony of life.

The summer solstice beckons us to honor the vibrant energy that permeates our being, to embrace the warmth of the sun's embrace and the moon's soothing presence. It is a time to acknowledge our connection to the Earth, to celebrate the cycles of nature, and to recognize that we too are an integral part of this cosmic dance.

Let us bask in the magnificence of this celestial convergence, allowing its ethereal beauty to inspire us, reminding us that we are but stardust in this vast cosmic orchestra.

In 2023 the summer solstice will occur on Wednesday 21 June at 15:58 BST.

Understanding Diaphragmatic Breathing

Diaphragmatic breathing, also known as belly breathing or deep breathing, involves using the diaphragm, a large muscle located below the lungs, to draw air deep into the lungs. Unlike shallow breathing, which relies on the chest and shoulders, diaphragmatic breathing engages the diaphragm to maximize the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide.

How to Practice Diaphragmatic Breathing

Find a comfortable position

Start by sitting or lying down in a relaxed position. You can place one hand on your chest and the other on your abdomen to monitor your breathing.

Relax your body

Close your eyes and focus on releasing tension from your muscles. Loosen your jaw, shoulders, and any other areas where you may be holding tension.

Inhale deeply

Slowly breathe in through your nose, allowing the air to fill your abdomen. As you do this, your abdomen should rise while your chest remains relatively still.

Exhale slowly

Gently exhale through your mouth, pushing out the air from your abdomen. As you exhale, feel your abdomen lowering.

Repeat and maintain a rhythm

Continue inhaling deeply and exhaling slowly, aiming for a smooth and steady rhythm. Gradually increase the duration of your inhales and exhales as you become more comfortable with the technique.

Alternate nostril breathing, also known as Nadi Shodhana in yoga, is a pranayama exercise that has been practiced for centuries to promote a sense of calm, balance the flow of energy in the body, and enhance overall well-being. This ancient technique involves the conscious manipulation of the breath by alternating the inhalation and exhalation through the nostrils.

Step-by-Step Guide

Find a comfortable seated position:
Relax and prepare: Take a few moments to relax your body and mind. Engage in deep breathing to let go of any tension, and if it feels comfortable, gently close your eyes to turn your focus inward.

Position your hand: Lift your right hand and bring it toward your face. Rest your index and middle fingers on your forehead, specifically between your eyebrows. Your thumb will be used to close your right nostril, and your ring finger or little finger will close your left nostril.

Close your right nostril: With your thumb, gently close your right nostril while inhaling slowly and deeply through your left nostril. Choose a comfortable count, such as 3, to regulate the duration of your inhalation.

Close both nostrils: Release your thumb from your right nostril and, using your ring finger or little finger, press against your left nostril to close it as well. Hold your breath for the same count as before.

Release the right nostril: Lift your thumb and exhale gradually and steadily through your right nostril, maintaining the same count that you used for your inhalation.

Inhale through the right nostril: While keeping your left nostril closed, inhale slowly and fully through your right nostril. Once again, count to the chosen number to establish a rhythm and balance.

Close both nostrils: After inhaling, close both nostrils by pressing your thumb against your right nostril and either your ring finger or little finger against your left nostril. Maintain the breath retention for the same count.

Release the left nostril: Lift your ring finger or little finger to release your left nostril. Exhale gently through your left nostril, ensuring a slow and controlled release, while counting to the chosen number.

Life is often a whirlwind of responsibilities, commitments, and distractions. We find ourselves caught up in a constant stream of busyness, feeling overwhelmed and disconnected from the present moment.

However, simplifying your life and embracing mindfulness can help you regain balance, reduce stress, and find greater contentment. Instead of adding more things to your already full plate, the key lies in removing the physical and mental clutter that weighs us down. Here are 10 practical steps to simplify your life and live more mindfully.

Declutter Your Physical Space

Did you know that clutter in our environment can contribute to increased stress and anxiety?
In today's digital age, our digital lives can become just as cluttered as our physical spaces. Spending excessive time on our phones or constantly checking emails can drain our mental energy and distract us from being present. Take the time to clean up your digital clutter by organizing files, deleting unnecessary apps, and unsubscribing from email lists and notifications that add to your mental overload.

Streamline Your Commitments

We often find ourselves overwhelmed with numerous commitments and obligations. However, not all of these activities align with our priorities or bring us fulfillment. Learn to say no to things that don't serve you and focus on the few meaningful commitments that truly matter. By streamlining your commitments, you create more time and space for the things that bring you joy and fulfillment.

Practice Single-Tasking… Create a Daily Mindfulness Practice… Prioritise Self-Care. 🌿☀️

Gratitude is a powerful practice that can greatly enhance your life and mindset. When you cultivate gratitude, you shift your focus to the positive aspects of your life and develop a deeper appreciation for the present moment.

Shifts Your Perspective: Gratitude helps you see beyond the challenges and difficulties in life. By acknowledging and being grateful for the blessings and opportunities you have, you develop a more positive outlook. This shift in perspective allows you to approach life's ups and downs with greater resilience and a sense of calm.

Reduces Materialistic Desires: Gratitude reminds you of the abundance already present in your life. Instead of constantly yearning for more possessions or external validation, you learn to appreciate what you have. This shift away from materialistic desires can simplify your life by reducing the need for excessive consumption and the pursuit of fleeting pleasures.

Enhances Relationships: Expressing gratitude towards others strengthens your relationships and deepens your connections. When you appreciate the people in your life and acknowledge their contributions, it fosters a sense of mutual support and love. Cultivating gratitude in relationships simplifies them by nurturing authenticity, trust, and gratitude reciprocity.

Increases Contentment: Gratitude helps you find contentment in the present moment rather than constantly striving for more. By recognizing and being grateful for the simple joys and blessings in your life, you develop a sense of fulfillment and satisfaction.

Reduces Stress and Anxiety: Practicing gratitude has been shown to reduce stress and anxiety levels.

Seven ways to Support Healthy, Glowing Skin:

🌸 Take care of your skin by being mindful of what you apply to it.

Remember, anything you put on your skin eventually enters your body. Whenever possible, choose cosmetics and skincare products made from natural, organic ingredients. Alternatively, consider making your own using everyday items found in your fridge and pantry.

🌸 Nourish yourself with fresh, whole foods and be mindful of what you consume.

Your diet directly influences your well-being, so prioritize wholesome, seasonal, and locally sourced produce. Give your body periodic cleanses and take breaks from caffeine, alcohol, and sugar.

🌸 Eating mindfully is key, not just what you eat.

Avoid distractions and take a moment to appreciate the food on your plate. Chew your food properly by putting your fork down between bites. Enhance digestion by incorporating spices like cumin, coriander, and fresh ginger.

🌸 Recognize the importance of rest.

Just as your body needs nourishment, it requires sufficient restorative sleep (preferably 6-8 hours per night) for repair and rejuvenation.

🌸 Effectively manage stress, as it can impact your liver and, in turn, your skin.

Cultivate practices such as meditation, mindfulness, journaling, or yoga to reduce stress and bring more ease to your daily life. While it's not always possible to avoid triggers, develop techniques to quickly restore a grounded and calm state.

🌸 Adjust your skincare routine to the seasons.

During autumn and winter, provide your skin with extra nourishment, moisture, and warmth. In summer, focus on keeping your skin cool by incorporating aloe, rose, and coconut-based products. Spring is an excellent time for detoxification and skin cleansing, so consider using homemade scrubs and exfoliants.

🌸 Embrace your individual beauty and redefine its meaning.

Shift your mindset away from societal standards and appreciate your inherent completeness and uniqueness. Your true beauty is sacred, divine, and deserving of your love and attention.

The quote by Glennon Doyle, "This life is mine alone. So I have stopped asking people for directions to places they've never been," is a powerful reminder of the importance of trusting ourselves and our own experiences in navigating our lives.

In a world that often tells us what we should do and how we should live, it can be easy to fall into the trap of seeking guidance from others rather than trusting our own intuition. We may look to friends, family, or experts for advice on everything from career choices to relationships, but ultimately, the only person who truly knows what is best for us is ourselves.

This is not to say that seeking advice or guidance from others is never helpful or valuable. In fact, learning from the experiences of others can be incredibly beneficial, especially if they have been through similar situations or challenges. However, it is important to remember that everyone's journey is unique, and what worked for someone else may not necessarily work for us.

Ultimately, we must take ownership of our own lives and decisions. We must trust ourselves to make the choices that align with our values and goals, even if they may not be the most popular or conventional. It can be scary to forge our own path and make decisions without the approval or validation of others, but it is also incredibly liberating and empowering.

So, the next time you find yourself looking to others for guidance, take a moment to pause and reflect. Ask yourself if their advice truly aligns with what you know to be true for yourself. Trust that you have the wisdom and strength to navigate your own life, and remember that the journey is ultimately yours alone.

Self-care is not a luxury, it's a necessity. It's important to treat yourself with kindness and compassion, especially when life gets tough.

1. If it still bothers you after 24 hours, speak up within 48 hours.

Holding onto negative emotions can be damaging to your mental health. If something is bothering you, give yourself 24 hours to process your emotions. If it still bothers you after that, speak up within 48 hours. This gives you enough time to gather your thoughts and communicate effectively without letting the situation escalate.

2. Treat yourself like someone you are responsible for taking care of.

We often put others before ourselves, but it's important to remember that we deserve the same care and attention. Treat yourself like someone you are responsible for taking care of. This means eating well, getting enough rest, and doing things that make you happy.

3. A bad day doesn't mean a bad life.

It's easy to get caught up in the negativity of a bad day, but remember that one bad day does not define your life. Tomorrow is a new day, and with it comes new opportunities for positivity and growth.

4. The critical judge in your head does not tell the truth, and it does not have your best interest at heart.

We all have a critical judge in our heads that tells us we're not good enough or that we're making a mistake. However, this voice does not tell the truth, and it does not have our best interest at heart. Instead, challenge these thoughts and replace them with positive affirmations.

5. Your brain can't be grateful and anxious at the same time. When anxiety takes hold, look for gratitude.

When anxiety takes hold, it's easy to spiral into negative thoughts. However, research shows that gratitude can counteract anxiety. Take a moment to list things you're grateful for, no matter how small they may seem.

6. Stop apologizing for expressing your feelings. You're convincing yourself that you are not worth the space you take up.

Expressing your feelings is a healthy and necessary part of self-care. Stop apologizing for it. You are worthy of taking up space and expressing yourself. Remember that your feelings are valid and deserving of attention.

Life is full of opportunities and adventures waiting to be explored. Every moment is a chance to create something beautiful, make a difference, or simply enjoy the wonders of the world around us.

Remember, time is a precious gift, and it's up to us to make the most of it. Let's live our lives with purpose, passion, and gratitude, and make every moment count. ✨

Equality versus Equity: What's the difference as we for IWD 2023 and beyond?

The words equity and equality are often used interchangeably.

So, what's the difference between equity and equality - and why is it important to understand, acknowledge and value this?

Equality means each individual or group of people is given the same resources or opportunities.

Equity recognizes that each person has different circumstances, and allocates the exact resources and opportunities needed to reach an equal outcome.
