Between developing a successful career, caring for our family, being present for our children, and ensuring that life’s logistics are ticking along nicely, there is little time for ourselves. Our energy is literally scattered in a multitude of directions. But when the to-do list is ticked (if it ever fully is) and everyone else’s needs are met, what’s left of us and what’s left for us? When we continuously put ourselves last and fail to take time to invest in our relationship with our...2019-09-2700 min
The Mindful PathSelf-knowing, self-acceptance, self-trust & the launch of The School Of Me HubIn this episode, I share what self-trust means to me and why I believe it is the foundation to find greater fulfilment, inner peace and live life with gusto. Achieving self-trust is trusting yourself enough to take that big leap, make that bold decision, take the first step to change the part of your life you have desired to change for years. It is trusting yourself enough to step off the emotional roller-coaster because you trust that you can handle any emotion with more ease. It is trusting yourself enough to let go...2019-09-2000 min
The Mindful PathHow to overcome procrastinationIn this episode, I explore a topic which comes up regularly in the work that I do with my clients: procrastination. According to the dictionary, we procrastinate when we: keep delaying something that must be done, often because it is unpleasant or boring Does that sound familiar? Do you have a tendency to delay tasks you know you have to do? Do you often prioritise urgent, less important tasks to delay tackling the most important ones on your list? Have you been known to put your head in t...2019-07-1700 min
The Mindful PathMisconceptions about managing our mindIn this episode, I explore a few misconceptions about the idea of managing our mind, based on your feedback on what managing your mind means to you. Does managing our mind mean controlling all the thoughts coming in? Does it mean emptying our mind of all thoughts? Isn't managing our mind like trying to control the clouds in the sky - impossible? I share what I do to manage my mind every - single - day. Because managing our mind is not a quick fix but a lifelong journey. R...2019-07-1000 min
The Mindful PathForgiveness : how to choose being free over being rightA lot of us think that forgiveness is about condoning what someone else has done. We believe that it is saying: “What you did is ok” or "You were right in behaving the way you did". In fact, forgiveness is freeing ourselves from the anger and resentment that are plaguing us when we do not forgive. It is making an active choice to be free rather than holding on to a desire to be right. When we forgive, we choose healing over conflict. Reference: Episode 30: How to ease our suff...2019-07-0300 min
The Mindful PathThe truth about perfectionism and how to let go of striving for perfectionAs perfectionists, we often think that we simply have unusually high standards. The thought of producing lesser quality work is just not an option in our mind. But what’s REALLY going on when we are constantly seeking perfection? Is it truly just that we hold ourselves, others and the world around us to the highest standard? Or is it a disguise for something deeper? Tune in to find out the truth about perfectionism and how to let go of striving for perfection. For more tips on how to live...2019-06-2600 min
The Mindful PathIt's not all about youInevitably, we are the hero of our own movie. The movie of our life is played in our mind as life happens and there is only ever one perspective; one narrative: ours. The entire movie is about us, it is filmed, and edited by us. We live our entire life from the perspective of ‘I’. As we go through life and continue creating this movie, we develop a sense for who we are: our ego. It is made of an amalgamation of beliefs and thoughts that we gather along the path of our life. Noticing our eg...2019-06-1900 min
The Mindful PathIs the past holding you backThe past no longer exists anywhere but in our mind. It has come and gone. In fact, what exists in our mind isn’t the past but our story about the past, our thinking about the past. When we look back at past events, we have a choice on how we want to think about them. And as our thinking always happens in the present, our thinking about our past inevitably affects who we are and how we behave in the present. So although the past has come and gone, it has shaped and still sh...2019-06-1200 min
The Mindful PathHow to deal with difficult emotionsLife involves feeling comfortable and uncomfortable emotions on a daily basis. While most of us have no issue with feeling emotions such as joy, contentment, excitement, and awe, we aren’t so keen on emotions such as anger, impatience, frustration, shame or sadness. Those are much less comfortable to feel. When we experience difficult emotions, we tend to resist or ignore them. But there is a more skilful way to deal with difficult or uncomfortable emotions. In this episode, I share some tips on what you can do preventatively, as well as when difficult emotions arise...2019-06-0500 min
The Mindful PathHow to overcome negativity and bring more positivity into your lifeAs we dive more deeply into training and managing our mind in Season 3, exploring negativity felt like an important concept to share with you. As Rick Hanson says: “The brain is like Velcro for negative experiences and Teflon for positive ones.” We are naturally wired to look for the negative, the risky, the unpleasant. And these negative experiences get stored quicker in our brain than positive ones. So, if we want to bring more positivity into our life, we will have to work extra hard to tilt our perspective against our brain's natural tendency. And the o...2019-05-2900 min
The Mindful PathThe truth about meditation and how to get startedMentioning the word meditation tends to have a bit of a Marmite effect on people. They either meditate and love it, or the word alone instantly creates resistance. Perhaps the thought of waking up at dawn to fit in an hour of meditation before heading to work, green smoothie in hand, has something to do with it. It’s hard to relate when you feel like you barely make it out of the door each morning with your children in tow and a black coffee in hand in lieu of breakfast (if you’re lucky!). Yes, t...2019-05-2200 min

The Mindful PathHow to ease our sufferingAs human beings, pain and suffering are an inevitable part of our life. When we experience pain, whether it is physical or mental suffering, we tend to do one of two things: we either block the pain or we drown in the pain. When we block the pain, we resist it, we push it away and avoid experiencing it. When we drown in the pain, we are so preoccupied by it that it becomes all consuming. We feel overwhelmed by it, as if we were literally drowning. Our life seems to revolve around nothing but o...2019-05-0800 min
The Mindful PathHow to train your mind to change your lifeThe brain continually remodels itself as we experience the world around us. Each interaction is a new data point for the brain to process and learn from. What is fascinating is that when our mind changes, our brain changes. This means that we are not powerless. We don’t have to be who we’ve always been. We can create change. We do this by training our mind. As Rick Hanson puts it “What flows through our mind sculpts our brain”. This is a journey of deep transformation, the path to authenticity and living wi...2019-05-0100 min
The Mindful PathHow to find joy when life feels like a hamster's wheelA lot of us rush through life, living at 200 mph. The race starts as soon as we wake up. We barely open our eyes and thoughts about all we have to do that day start competing for our attention. Throughout the day, we juggle, organise, hurry, coordinate, achieve, and deliver. We go to bed at night exhausted, and often feeling like there wasn’t much joy in our day. The trouble is, when we run through life, we miss out on all these tiny opportunities for joy. There may be dotted along the pat...2019-04-0300 min
The Mindful PathDoes our emotional wellbeing depend on other people's behaviourMost of us believe that our emotional wellbeing depends on what others around us say and do. We believe that our happiness is conditional on them saying or doing certain things. Is it possible that our wellbeing, that the feelings we have depend on other people's behaviour? Is it true that those in our life 'control' us like a thermostat, setting our emotional temperature to whatever they like, simply by being a certain way? Can they 'make us' happy, sad, frustrated, angry? In this episode, we explore that belief and how it may affect our lif...2019-03-2700 min
The Mindful PathWhy we need healthy boundaries and how to set themAuthor and Researcher Brene Brown describes boundaries very simply as ‘what’s ok and what’s not ok’, regardless of the area of your life which you apply these boundaries to. Boundaries are not about separating ourselves from others, but about respect. By setting boundaries, we show others that we have respect for our time, our emotions, and other areas of our life. And we invite others to have respect for these too. A lot of us don’t set boundaries for a number of reasons. Perhaps we want to be the perfect partner, parent, friend, or...2019-03-2000 min
The Mindful PathHow to avoid spiralling down the exhaustion funnelThe concept of the ‘Exhaustion Funnel’ was created by burnout expert Professor Marie Åsberg of the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm.

Living intentionally means making conscious choices as our days, weeks and months unfold. Every one of these choices is a piece of the puzzle that fits into who we are becoming. You can be deliberate about these choices, or you can let your autopilot make these choices for you. The difference is that you are not deliberate about who you are being or becoming. In this episode, I share a simple exercise you can do to find clarity...2019-03-0600 min

The Mindful PathHow to cope with our emotionsIn this episode, we talk about emotions and how we can be more intentional about managing our feelings and our emotional wellbeing. Emotions comes in all shapes and sizes. Throughout our days and our life, we experience a whole array of emotions. They vary in tone and intensity: we are acutely aware of some feelings when they arise whilst others almost go unnoticed. We rarely tune into our emotions on purpose and we tend to push away feelings that we see as unpleasant. We are simply not resourced to lean into our emotions and cope w...2019-02-2000 min

The Mindful PathHow to step out of autopilot and be present in your life Over years of living, our brain has acquired a lot of knowledge and used it to create automated ways of thinking and reacting to our environment and circumstances. This is what we refer to as our autopilot. We live on autopilot nearly 50% of the time! And whilst it can be very helpful at times, it can leave us feeling disempowered and unfulfilled. As if we had no control over our life. Unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviours can also slip into our autopilot without us noticing. These become part of our default thoughts and re...2019-01-3000 min
The Mindful PathAre you a human DOING or a human BEING? How to choose intentionally which mode to be in. In today’s fast-paced world, a lot of us have lost the ability to truly be in the moment, to simply be. Our society glorifies the busy, the juggling, the rushing and the doing. We live our lives running towards the next achievement or milestone. We strive for more, bigger, better, moving the goalposts as soon as we reach them. We tend to spend most of our time in DOING mode with very little time in BEING mode. In this episode, we look at what each mode entails, how to recognise the mode we are in...2019-01-2300 min

In this very first episode of Season 2, we discuss the difference between living on auto-pilot and living intentionally. A lot of us live on autopilot, we are led by habitual ways of thinking and behaving. The automated processes which our mind has established and fine-tuned since we were born run the show. We aren't really in the driver's seat of our life and we tend to feel unfulfilled. Living intentionally means engaging with life and living ‘awake’. We are at the helm of our own boat, and have a sens...2019-01-1000 min

The inner critic is this voice inside our head which jumps in at times to offer harsh and unsolicited criticism. Its purpose is to protect us from exposing ourselves to hurt, rejection, and pain. It stems from good intentions but tends to undermine our self-worth, our self-love and our self-confidence. It e...2018-10-0300 min
