Its a good time to set some intentions


I just love this time of year - November, December, January. Firstly because it's festive and fun, and everyone goes into holiday spirit which is often filled with happiness and love. But secondly because it's the time of year where I start thinking of what I would like my next year to look like. 

I learnt from Anthony Robbins to set 9 one year intentions. This is what I've been doing for a few years now, and sometimes 9 of these intentions materialise, sometimes much less do. However, I always know that if I didn't set the intentions, I'd be much further from my dream life than if I do. 
And so this time of year is a great time to start reflecting on what your year has looked like so far, start re-evaluating what was good and wasn't and think about how you'd like next year to go.
I break down my intentions into 3 areas: 

1. Spiritual, mental and physical health
2. Family and home
3. Work and wealth

Sometimes these shift and change depending on where I feel I need to focus. But what I love about setting intentions instead of goals is that to me, they are fluid, they can change as the year continues and by not putting a date or time on them, I personally feel the pressure and stress is taken away and I open up to allow the Universe to work its magic. I am the type of person who likes to control every situation, so I often have to remind myself to have faith in my life's timing and have trust that I am looked after and that my intentions will come to life in the time that they need to. 

I challenge you to start thinking about what you'd like next year to look like so that by January 1st you know where your heart is headed.

Are your priorities filling your cup?

I was chatting to a friend the other day and she asked me how I get to walk on the beach or do yoga all the time. She said she can barely sit down with a cup of tea let alone go for a long walk and it made her feel frustrated. It really got me thinking about the difference between our two lives.  Her house is always beautiful and spotless, all the housework is done, dinner cooked every night and children home-schooled at the moment. She also is committed to making her business a priority in this trying time which keeps their family afloat.  My house is always messy! Put 2 dogs and a 3 year old together and see what happens, so I often do the bare minimum to tidy it up, I leave the washing until its an absolute must do and share the load of cooking with my husband. It made me realize how different our priorities are and how we so often judge our lives based on someone else's priorities.   My priority every day is to either go for a walk or do yoga, because if...

I'm Tired of Hustling ..... sshhh don't tell anyone

I am so tired of 'hustling'. I said it! I feel like 'the hustlers' would just die if they read that. Is it just me, or is hustling over-rated? Coming from someone who is an active relaxer, go-getter, self-motivator, I thought I'd never say those words.  But I have gotten to a point in my life where I am questioning whether we really need to be hustling all of the time, and never sleep or rest in order to be successful', or actually is it ok to take our own time, smell the roses and just enjoy our journey, and even switch paths if we really want to? I feel like we are living in a society where we are expected to achieve everything by 16 years old, be the absolute best in every area of our lives and if we aren't actively working towards creating millions of dollars, then we are questioned about what our purpose really is.  If I think back to when my parents were growing up, generally the dads worked Mon-Fri, the moms were at home with the children and weeke...
