I am noticing something hugely important to me: the dramatic contrast between how I am when I am exuberant with companions and how I am quietly at home, where I live alone. Am I “lonely?” I have been aware of this contrast for years, but it seemed inaccurate to use the word “lonely” on its…

“Please help me!” I used to say aloud. When I felt small, vulnerable and lost, I felt depleted of resources to help myself, to take an action, to have capacity, to feel bigger and more powerful. Slowly, I have come to speak a new expression: “Thank you for helping me!” My explorations of noticing my…

I’d love to share with you my experience with waking up my fatigue response. I am describing my fatigue as an embodied response to stress, that my body adopted to protect me from stressful situations and circumstances, many, many years ago. I began to practise my awareness when I trained in Embodiment and have grown…

May I play with your attention before you speak? I am feeling curious about the words that fly about the place. What piece of substance is it that proclaims “I”? If you are standing, let your knees be soft and if you are standing, sitting or lying, feel the support of the ground under you…

I was confiding to a small group I attend, that I had been feeling tired – and then I was stumbling over the best words to describe my feeling, with more clarity and accuracy. With more attention, I realised that I used the words “I am tired” to cover a variety of different feelings, with…

I have been brain-mind thinking about bringing balance into my life. I notice my pattern is to push out my energy into my interests and purpose with enthusiasm and vibrancy, drawn by my passion and motivation into pursuits that inspire, feed and nourish me. That all sounds good. The very acts of putting my energy…

“They’re too emotional.” “Sorry, I’ve come over all emotional.” Have you heard words like these? Why are we describing emotions as “too much” and apologising for them? What is strange about this, is that our emotions are exactly what we need, that tells us we are alive and interacting with the world around us. Emotions…

When I talk about grief and sadness, people ask me about blame, as though there is a direct line from “my painful feelings” linked to “who is to blame.” When I say I am feeling grief and sadness, I am seeking understanding and compassion for my actions and other people’s actions. I am not feeling…

When I am using Transformation in the title of this site, I guess it’s time to say what that means to me. There are two things I want to say. I was recently doing a charity walk in my local area and found myself walking alongside some lovely people to chat with, which I really…

Some people asked me what I knew about relating and we came up with most of this: Be yourself as best you can and try relating with someone who accepts you fully as you are and appreciates all of you – and vice versa. There are quite a few layers to this: Consciously choosing Continuous…

I’d love to share with you here, what I believe to be my purpose. There have been times when I longed for a sense of purpose and meaning in my life, yet couldn’t quite identify them. I felt sad about that, so now I am feeling uplifted and daring to be honest, as I express…

Hello all, I have an interesting perspective for you. I spent an evening with my friend. When I was recollecting our time together, all of my visual memory was of him. He was the person I saw and recalled, his face is in my mind. We had a lovely evening and I was there too!…

Hello everyone, Today I’m saying something about ATTENTION. Where is your attention right now? How often is your attention divided? How many people want to receive your attention at any one time? How often do you give yourself attention? It’s an important need for everyone, yet so often, our attention is fragmented, disconnected, disjointed, lost.…
