My Favourite Ways To Relax…
Hi all, Life can be stressful, there is no denying it. It is incredibly important that we take time out in our day-to-day, busy lives to unwind and relax. I am not only prone to anxiety but also highly sensitive and introverted. By the end of the day, I have been overwhelmed by lights, sounds,…

Spring Cleaning For The Soul!
‘Happiness is a place between too little and too much.’ In the Southern Hemisphere, Spring has finally arrived! The sun is shining, the bees are buzzing, the plants are blooming & we all have the itch. No, I don’t mean the Hayfever itch (although, unfortunately I do suffer from allergies during this season).

Cooking With Love!

Mindfulness & Meditation
“Quiet the mind and the soul will speak…’ – Ma Jaya Sati Bhagavati For a lot of my life, meditation and I have had an on-again, off-again relationship. I would sit in silence for long periods of time to quiet my anxiety and the second I felt better, I wouldn’t meditate for months on end.…

Looking Beyond Social Conditioning
‘I see success as leaving high school with as much of yourself as when you started…’ I believe it all starts with high school. The pressure begins to set in the minute young adults are aware of how they look, what they have and what they don’t have. High school is incredibly difficult and teens…
