Go slow – the benefits of slowing down

slowing down and relax

If you have been following my enewsletter or my social media channels, you know that I have been recommending slow living. This concept of slowing down is about allowing yourself to have a slow morning or a slow weekend. Rather than succumbing to the busyness that our lifestyles and modern culture seems to dictate. 

Nothing is what it seems – being authentic

Adelaide counsellor

We are continually bombarded with images and snapshots of the “finished product” of someone’s life. Espeically via Instagram, Facebook and online and traditional media. Whether it be a perfectly poised selfie, a precise interior design layout or a strategically constructed shot of someone’s meal. How do we know if someone is being authentic?

Don’t try meditation when you are depressed!

As someone devoted to meditation, both as a personal practice as well as a teacher and facilitator for more than twenty years, I will be the first to admit that it’s not always going to be an everyday practice. What’s more is that it is essential to know when it can be and when it’s best to steer clear!

The truth about self care

Australians are more stressed and burnt out than ever. We’re looking at 35 per cent of us reporting significant distress in our lives. And more than 26 per cent having above normal levels of anxiety. The effects of heightened stress can play a huge role in your short and long term health and affects your day to day wellbeing.

Out of the suffering with Adelaide counselling

adelaide counsellor

We’ve looked at how people can completely transform their lives with counselling and other wellbeing techniques.

My counselling services bring relief from suffering and are powerful in life changing ways. I genuinely believe the majority of my mission on earth is to help ease the suffering of others. If I can help others find a path to their own wholeness or reconnect to their inner selves and perhaps something beyond the self then I feel I’m completely doing what I am meant to be doing.

How to stop procrastinating – showing up

Adelaide counselling

Working. Changing. Healing. Projects. Success.

All of these require work. But did you know that showing up is 80 per cent of the work? And possibly how to stop procrastinating.

There are times when we are reluctant to do the “thing” we need to do. It might look like cancelling an appointment, not completing an important task or giving your time away when you needed that time for yourself or your business.

Who does the housework?

Who does the housework in your home? Are you doing ALL or most of the housework and domestic duties in your household?

Statistics show that the average Australian woman spends between five and 14 hours a week doing unpaid domestic housework. Whilst males are doing just five.
