"Blessed are they who see beautiful things in humb "Blessed are they who see beautiful things in humble places where other people see nothing." Camille Pissarro⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Savour the simple beauty that's everywhere. 🌿
As well as savouring this beautiful weather, I've As well as savouring this beautiful weather, I've spent some time over the past few days revisiting my values and making plans for the year ahead. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you've never done this work before, the first half of my new book, Change Your Thinking to Change Your Life (due for release later this month), is dedicated to helping you discover what you want most in your life by connecting you with your true self. I thought I'd share a mini version of some of the exercises here for you to try on your own. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you're keen for more detail, pre-order your copy of the book (I've included the link in my bio) or maybe you'd like to join me next Saturday in my vision workshop. We'll touch on how all of these elements come together to help you create your version of a beautiful life. ✨
I'm easing my way back into work this week and as I'm easing my way back into work this week and as I do every January, today I'm spending time planning the year ahead (it makes the world of difference working in this beautiful spot!). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ There are so many things I want to find time for so my biggest challenge always is what to leave off the list. Something that really helps with this is creating a longer-term vision for my life, so I know that eventually, I'll find time for all of the things that I love. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you're inspired to create your own life plan, I've written a blog post about the steps to take (link in bio) but I'm also hosting a Create Your Vision workshop next week to walk you through this process that I love so much. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The approach I take is gentle. It's not about adding more pressure or pushing you in any way. It's about helping you to tune in and connect with your version of a creative, conscious and meaningful life. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Join me on Saturday 16 January at 10am (Melbourne time) and I'll walk you through the process so that you start this year feeling inspired. Booking link in bio. $25 AUD or free for those facing financial difficulty. ✨

“Worrying doesn’t take away tomorrow’s troub “Worrying doesn’t take away tomorrow’s troubles. It takes away today’s peace.” Randy Armstrong⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’ve always been something of a worrier. My mother used to say to me, “you think too much.” And I do. I’m not sure I’ll ever completely change this about myself but I’ve found two things that help me manage worry most - meditation and time in nature. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Last week, Chris and I spent four beautiful days at Wilsons Prom, hiking and soaking up the beauty and magic of this place. I switched my phone off and let myself just be in the present moment. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Sometimes it’s not possible to get away from it all for a few days but we can usually disconnect from technology and reconnect with nature without too much trouble. ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It’s one of the simplest ways to connect with a bigger perspective and to find your way back to peace. ✨🌿☀️
