2022: Lose the Weight of Negative Thoughts

2022: Lose the Weight of Negative Thoughts

Editors Note* A very Happy New Year to you all.  January is a time renowned for intention and goal setting.  Intentions are powerful and can serve us well, but remember that this is also a time to be kind to yourself, we are still within the depths of winter, with many households recovering from the rush of the festive period. 
Use this time to prepare soul loving intentions for the year ahead, which will bud and blossom as we circle through the magical year of 2022. Rest, recuperate and as you see new energy begin to take life, use this to honour what serves you the most.
A tool that will always serve you very, very well, maybe better than all the other tools combined is self love.

As a society, we often celebrate just one type of beauty. We have lost our way in seeing the beauty in the lines, in the marks, in the quirks and nuances and we have boxed ourselves in.⁠

There is not only one type of beauty, one songbird, one tulip plant, one snow leopard.  There are many types of beauty, many forms, in nature and within us.

As a culture we seemed to have tied ourselves into the habit of talking about our bodies as "too much of this" and "not enough of that"

These harsh judgements leave us contorting ourselves to fit.  

Destroying the inherent affiliation with our own natural shape and size of our body cheats our confidence and undermines our self worth. 

This year, let's change that.

All my love,
