They say the risk of love is loss. And the price of loss is Grief.

When I was 18, I’d never had a serious loss before.
And I thought grief was basically lots of crying which reached its prime at the funeral and then you ‘got over it and moved on’. And then the first cluster of friends committing su***de began.

I wasn’t prepared for the utter emotional, physical, and mental chaos that it was. I also wasn’t prepared for all the other emotions that came with it – the guilt, the anger, the fear.

There are few more devastating events than loss of a loved one, especially under sudden, unnatural, or traumatic circumstances.

While bereavement is a normal response to a serious loss, it is different from depression — although the two can coexist — and when it becomes prolonged or disabling, it is sometimes called complicated grief / protracted grief / prolonged grief / chronic grieving.

Stay tuned over the next few weeks as I give you all some insights.

What has to be broken before we can use it??? And why is this relevant to me???

All too often it is so easy to allow our negative thoughts to almost run away with us - and if this gallop of emotion is left unchallenged by ourselves, it can soon have us developing other worries… which feed off the first and makes the whole thing all-consuming.

Contaminating our thoughts day and night - bringing no release - contaminating our positive thoughts.

And then we believe we are broken.

Reducing these negative emotions and fragmenting our positive thought patterns - reducing their positive effects - we can not only control this gallop of negative emotion

- we can reduce it
- defuse it
- and manage it

Learning to manage the negatives in our thoughts and feelings as simply as we control the tensions in our body. And we do this by learning - and relearning ways to reduce them - and only putting more energy into solving the problem when there is new information, or circumstances.

And then you become self-accepting, self-confident, self-assured and you know wholeheartedly that YOU are an amazing person destined to do amazing things with your life.

Because the egg must be cracked to make breakfast.

The coffee bean must be ground down to make the perfect cuppa.

The glow stick must be broken, before it can shine bright.

The lego must be broken down and rebuilt a different way, to challenge the childs creativity

The caterpillar has to turn to sludge before it emerges as a butterfly.

And the shell must be broken, before the bird can fly away.

That’s it
Getting a sense of a you over there in front of you
Who is now completely at rest
Where everything is still and quiet
And there is all the time in the world
All the space and time you need
To become clear again
About what’s important
And about what you’re really about as a person
About what matters to you
About what calls to you most
And you can merge into this deeply relaxed you
& experience this complete calm and clarity from the inside
Now

And if someone takes quite some time off
From a job or a lifestyle
That had become a burden to them
That had been steadily dissipating their life force and their vitality
When they take time off from all of that
For days
Weeks
Even months
They may not even realise
The inner release is happening at first
But over time
They begin walking with more of a spring in their step
A weight has been lifted
They begin to smile more freely again
Coming back to who they really are
As you get your sparkle back
You get your shine back
And in time
You begin to feel a desire
To be doing
To be taking action
To be connecting with the people you love
To be doing the things you love to do
In a way that is infectious
In a way that inspires others around you
As you really get your mojo back 🥰

I now have space for new clients again, DM me

It can be hard to reclaim yourself as women sometimes….. we can feel a lot of pressure surrounding us to be the perfect image of what society wants us to be:-

💋Age gracefully, but never let yourself go.

💋Work like we have no children and parent like we have no job.

💋They’ll call the stay at home mother unfulfilled but the working mother selfish, all while childless women are considered incomplete.

💋Go chase that career but never at the expense of a family.

💋Think like a man if you want to be successful, but don’t act like one if you want to be liked.

💋We’re supposed to mother our husbands but never treat them like children.

💋Put out on demand, but demand respect.

💋Married and miserable is better than single and happy, don’t stay with an abusive man but never break up your family.

💋Don’t marry a bum for love, but don’t stay with a successful man for security.

💋Don’t be dependent on a man for money, but don’t emasculate them by earning more.

💋They’ll tell us to embrace our sexuality, but have some self-respect and to care about our appearance but stop looking for attention.

💋Just say no, but let them down easy.

💋 Be aware of your surroundings but stop being so dramatic.

💋Practise self-love but don’t love yourself too much.

💋Dream big but stay small and would you like me to keep going???

You can focus on all the things others expect you to be….. or you can say that the only thing I need to be is WHOEVER and WHATEVER I want. If you want some help figuring out exactly who or what that is to reclaim your superhero status, you know where to find me ###

I've been quiet on here for a while... Partly because I love to enjoy life away from all technology, and partly because I've been pondering the patterns of my friendships.

I use the term 'friendships' loosely...as we all ebb and flow with the moon's, so too do our friends - sometimes we have to adjust our expectations surrounding our assumptions on how our friends interact with us.

Do I care enough about this person to voice my upset/hurt/disappointment??? If I do, will they hear my dialogue with an open mind & heart, or will they shut me down & make it all my fault???
Will they even show up at all??? For some, it's easier to ignore the issue than face it. And then they act like there's no issue if they see you in public.
Orrrr was I just more invested in what I thought was a forever friend, when really they no longer need me so I'm the disposable one.

We can live out our Careers and Lives worried about those who say that we are either not enough, or too much.

I agree with understanding your Strengths and learning the tipping point where our strengths lose their power and efficacy.

But NEVER turn down your callings, your IQ, your Emotional IQ etc. just because it triggers someone.

💣💣💣 They will be triggered often, anyway. It's up to them to set their boundaries, and to communicate their feelings/emotions.

My style can be confrontational,
I have a habit of triggering clients and friends by asking allllllllll of the questions - and I'm fully aware that sometimes through this process I need to be the person you blame.

F*** you Mez is one of the most satisfying things you can say, and I am fully comfortable shouldering your misplaced blame..... just know that my shoulders will also carry you all the way to the finish line, so you never have to hold onto that s**t again 💪🏋️‍♂️🏁🏆🎖️

Does the world really need another person telling you how to live your best life?

The last few years have bought a superabundance of information on mental health, life coaching and the 'next big thing to project you forward'.

New tips, tricks, books, cooks, diets and 75Hard style bulls**t are hitting the markets every day. This industry can be a complete train wreck. And instead of cleaning up the wreckage, people continue to be sent down the same rabbit holes to create more and more devastation.

Feeling pressure to ‘Better Yourself’ by paying big money to learn the same old codswallop where the people with no imagination recycle the same old promise and tell you that the only way to enlightenment is to:

• Read ### pages of a self help book
• Don’t drink alcohol
• Follow a diet
• Do a session or two of exercise each day
• And go live on Facebook, because you know – that makes you accountable.

Well duh… everyone knows that clean eating, no alcohol, and actually doing exercise is a great way to clear your head and to feel fantastic in your own body. So do you really need to do these challenges? Is there even a problem? Or have society, the media and our personal insecurities invented one?

Once you know something, you will not be able to un-know it. And if it strikes a deep emotional chord, you will not forget it.

Of course knowing something doesn’t necessarily change anything. Most people know that a packet of chips and a can of soft drink aren’t a top nutritional choice – but it doesn’t stop the chips and drink being one of the biggest selling items in the supermarket.

Be careful…. Because talking to me will enable you to achieve your ‘whatever it is’ you want to achieve…..

Because when you discover something that turns your world inside out and challenges existing paradigms, current medical dogma, societal norms and cultural standards, it will automatically generate questions in your mind.

I will show you that discovering yourelf at your best is an exciting, enlivening, uplifting journey. You can resuscitate yourself and reactivate your freedom - the freedom to decide what’s right for you, the freedom to trust your body, and the freedom to live fully (whatever that means to you) regardless of what others imply you ‘should’ be doing ###

***Substance Abuse***

One of the most brilliant quotes I stumbled upon in regards to playing the victim role was “Some people create their own storms, and then get upset when it rains.”

With any type of substance abuse, it’s an addict’s natural instinct to justify the chemical dependency and blame others in life as they fall “helplessly” into the victim role. The amount of complaining that builds up could fill a novel within minutes.

As the dependency thinking begins to take over and life’s misfortunes are delivered to their feet, they can’t help but bitch and moan about it. It’s so much easier to talk about who did what to them, and the should’ves could’ves would’ves, than it is to actually look at the problem at hand and try to change something about it. Why in the world would they want to tire themselves out and put effort into changing the things that are bothering them?

When they’re so caught up in their usage, it’s hard for them to see that WE are the product of our own actions. They start developing this victim role mindset as if there is some force or entity out there that is trying to prevent them from the delinquency and debauchery they so crave to partake in.

They have to endure and suffer in life because of the choices made by others. Why is there nothing they can do about all these terrible things occurring in their lives? The infamous mindset of being powerless begins to take hold here. By playing the victim role, they are basically handing over their choice of mental freedom and accepting that life has some cruel fate for them that is out of their hands.

Once immersed fully into the victim role, most addicts will resemble only that of self-pity in its truest form and will be actively looking for people to feel sorry for them. They will do anything to avoid themselves and to have somebody else cry their tears, and fight their battles for them - creating distance between the loved ones around them. It can be extremely easy to sway the people who care about us.

Many loved ones do not know how to cope, how to get the addict help, or just deal with an addicted individual in general. It is for this reason that people begin to enable the addict.
This enabling is one of the results from addicts playing the victim card, and swindling loved ones into the game. Because Victims attract Victims. And it is our loved ones sitting in this victim mindset that are unable to see the truth, who decide to fight the addicts battles for them.

Addiction and alcoholism are sneaky little buggers. They come from out of nowhere, tackle you to the ground, and then leave you hogtied and waiting for death. Now you can complain and admit defeat - or you can squirm, loosen the ropes of chemical dependency and walk away knowing how much you’ve overcome.

Playing the victim role is a form of self-sabotage that exaggerates the ugly beauty life has in store for all of us.

Don’t be the little piggy that cries “wee wee wee” all the way home. You’re entitled to your roast beef too.

The flight of the bumblebee is not just an excellent classical piece composed by Rimsky-Korsakov…

Short and stubby, the bumblebee doesn't look very flight-worthy. Indeed, in the 1930s, French entomologist August Magnan even noted that the insect's flight is actually impossible, and the ability of the bumblebee to fly has intrigued entomologists and engineers for decades.

Bumblebees should not be able to fly because in doing so they break all the physical laws of aerodynamics – their bodies are too large for their wings.

It was long assumed that a bumblebee moves its wings up and down, forcing air downwards and generating enough force to lift its body off the ground and fly.

Scientists discovered that the wings sweep back in a ninety-degree arc and then flip over as they return… In other words, the wings moved backwards and forwards rather than up and down, and the speed of the movement coupled with the angle of the wings creating something akin to a mini cyclone around the bee.

So if we apply the logic of Bumble Bees to our lives, however you do the thing - be it up and down or front to back, whether you fly, glide, sail or run, fast, slow or somewhere in between - it’s proven that the tiny minute details are just the story of how you did it… and stories are always evolving.

Bee’s just fly, because they can. They figure out what works for them, and they do it. And in doing so, they do it with the power of a mini cyclone that they create surrounding them.

Fear is just faith that it won’t work. You have to give up the thoughts that weigh you down.

Addiction is not a choice that anybody makes.

It is not a moral failure. It is not an ethical lapse. It is not a weakness of character. It is not a failure of will.

What it actually is, is it’s a response to human suffering.

Whether it be Sexual, Physical, Emotional, Severe or less severe, - it is an attempt to escape suffering. It is a quick and easy way to numb the pain and allows you to mask the deeper wounds. Temporarily.

It can give us a false sense of emotional release, which can often be unleashed onto those around us toxically.

Addictions are a response to suffering. And what people need in response to addiction is not judgement, and not simply symptom control. They need to be helped to heal from their trauma. Because it is all about trauma.

It is however possible for people to heal from trauma. Sufficiently so they do not have to keep escaping from themselves into addictions. To lesson the suffering of their trauma – you must approach it from a healthy direction, with a healthy perspective.

People want to solve your problems for you, rather than asking:
💣 Where does your behaviour come from?”
💣 What are you still carrying inside that is making you behave this way?
💣 How can we help you resolve what’s inside you?

Not just how do we help you evolve your behaviour, but how do we help YOU recalibrate. Now that’s what healing is. And that happens inside a person.

So it’s never anybody curing anybody else (because lets face it, we’re not the deli-meats on the antipasto platter), but we can guide people to healing if we ask the appropriate questions ♥️🫂♥️
