Being Kind to Yourself: Choice
/
It is a common experience that as we are growing up we are encouraged to treat others like we would ourselves. In this two part blog post, I (Emily) will share my journey on how I'm learning to be kind to myself, each moment at a time.
Read MoreCreating Habits
/
Over the last month I have been trying to get back into the groove of things.
And that involves getting involved with one of my most challenging choices: creating habits. But not just creating habits, being aware of habits and how they effect who I am & what I want to be...

Read MoreGrey Shades
/
I would like to freely admit that I have never read the Fifty Shades of Grey series. Compelled by all the fuss about the upcoming film release, I recently watched the latest trailer.

When Life Gives You... Tomatoes!
/
It is a rather odd occurrence to be sitting in an apartment right in the smack-bam middle of a city and to hear your overgrown tomato plant rustle slowly in the wind. My last few months have been filled with similar unexpected tales mingled with the soft scent of growing cherry tomatoes.

Today I have decided to share something that has been with me for the last month. Although it is rather abrupt, I feel like there is no formal way to introduce this post, rather than to say I am speaking woman to woman.
Read MoreThe Importance of Being
/
My past week has been particularly challenging and I thought I'd share with you something that keeps pulling me through. So often I get trapped in the mentality of thinking about what needs to be done or what is going on tomorrow or the things I was meant to do yesterday but didn't get a chance to etc...

Positive thinking is not just about quotes and happy colours.
Positive thinking is a conscious choice to monitor and challenge every thought to use it FOR YOU. Today has been one of those days where most of my thoughts have been in the opposite: I’ve had to face my thoughts to work for me.

Heidi recently posted about ‘putting her red gloves on’ and over my next few posts I’d like to share some of my favourite punches.
