Gift giving and recommendations.
I love to give gifts that I know the person will love as it is related to their hobbies or lifestyle, or an experience like eating out or seeing a show or movie, or something for wellbeing. My son follows in my tradition.
He gave me for Mother’s Day fingerless gloves. I am prone to Raynaud’s phenomenon, aka white finger(s), where your finger…
Advice if you are thinking about changing careers – it’s really interesting for all ages
This is a really helpful tool for figuring out your next move. My son was struggling to figure out what he wanted to do with his career.
Considering the average person changes careers 3 to 7 times in their lifetime, according to various studies. This number can vary based on industry trends…
When I look at this photo, my mind immediately goes to my trusty swimsuit. It’s more than just fabric; it’s a symbol of a year of consistent daily swims and the motivation that kept me going.
Motivational swimming
But it represents so much more:

Happiness often created by everyday connections between us. It’s woven into the fabric of our relationships, both big and small. And the beautiful truth is, these connections aren’t limited to specific places or times.

I am so thankful to my clients for leaving reviews, and this one is so important because she uses the word “skeptical” (US). I too was sceptical when I went to see a hypnotherapist for the first time over 20 years ago. You couldn’t even Google “Hypnotherapist”!
This doesn’t apply just to hypnotherapy.I think we are sceptical about a lot of things we don’t know…
If you have ever suffered from SAD (Seasonal Affective disorder) or have a lot of bone injuries from sport or naturally ageing, then you need to really pay attention to Vitamin D and sun exposure.

I write this after running into a neighbour who just has had a baby. I said “I didn’t know you smoked?”. He said, “I don’t / didn’t, but I am under a little stress at work, and adjusting to being a daddy”.
