Empower Your Next Step

Embrace challenges, learn from experiences, and harness strengths to create your own personal pattern of growth!

What would happen
if you removed the thought ‘anxious’
and just paid attention
to these flickering sensations in the belly?

What would happen
if you took away the word ‘lonely’
and simply became fascinated
with this heavy feeling in the heart area?

What would happen
if you deleted the concept ‘sick’
or ‘broken’ or ‘wrong’
and just got curious about
the tightness in the throat
the pressure in the head
the ache in the shoulders?

What would happen
if you stopped looking for solutions
and checked to see
if there was actually a problem here?

Come out of the exhausting storyline, friend.
Come closer to yourself.
Commit sacred awareness to a single living moment.
Bring warmth to the tender place inside.

Infuse sensation
with the light of attention.
Maybe
it’s not as bad
as you
think.

“I just don’t know how to make friends”.

It’s a phrase I - Heidi - hear often, especially from older youth or young adults who often only need a point in the right direction with a strategy or two to figure this out.

Here is a wonderful clip, with two practical strategies, that really speaks to making friends.

Have a watch and in the comments below give a thumbs up 👍 or a smile 😃 when you have a go at one or both of these strategies in your daily life.

Take care

"Aha Moment" For Parents On The Verge of Giving Up Free Conference - Mindful Parenting and Mental Wellness - October 14-18, 2021

Hi all! It’s me - Heidi - on the account today. I wanted to acknowledge international women’s day and all the amazing women in my life who grow and progress side by side with me.

My daughters, my daughter in law, my sisters, my mother, and my mother in law. My dear friends and colleagues.

When women suppprt women we see powerful changes internally, in relationships, in families, and in organisations locally and across the globe.

One of my favourite quotes that centres me and my female energy on goodness and growth is from Margaret Nadaul. I hope you enjoy it too and happy international woman’s day to all women and all those whose lives are touched by good women.

“…The world has enough women who are tough; we need women who are tender. There are enough women who are coarse; we need women who are kind. There are enough women who are rude; we need women who are refined. We have enough women of fame and fortune; we need more women of faith. We have enough greed; we need more goodness. We have enough vanity; we need more virtue. We have enough popularity; we need more purity.”
