Be kind to yourself, you are not a magician and we all try to do our best.
Be happy with yourself if you have made the choices you felt were right. If you find out there are better choices, change what you choose to do.

As the saying goes ‘Variety is the spice of life’. When you are seeking to understand the world you live in, your place in it and who you are; variety of approach is good. By trying different approaches you might find that one gives you greater insight than another. However many people find it difficult to find authentic people who can show them their approach.
I have spent the last 20 years seeking out such people. Below are people I have either worked with , been their student or their client. I have found them helpful in my personal development. Of course you need to decide if they are right for you.

Spring is a time for change: simple steps to finding joy
After a long hard winter this year, Mother Nature is stirring. New beginnings are arriving.
Now is the time to look at your life and decide if all is well or you want to introduce some changes.
Is your life bringing you joy?
Life is for enjoyment not endurance…. It always surprises me how a small change can often make a big difference to how you feel about your life, for example;
- Making some time for yourself is a wonderful tonic when you lead a hectic work and home life.
- No phones or email for a day can be a revelation giving uninterrupted time to focus on yourself, family or friends.
- Make a lonely person happy by a visit sharing your chatter, fun and enjoyment of life.
- Walk and talk in nature with a friend or loved one can make life feel worthwhile.
- Time to sit in silence and find personal calmness.
Whatever brings you joy – seek it out over the long holiday weekend.
Drop a comment on what you are planning to do or have done. I would love to hear from you.

Relaxation: learn to remain still
Stillness is very powerful.
Mindfulness is a commonly used term these days. However it is true that meditation or just being still brings calmness which enhances your concentration, lowers blood pressure and aids sleep quality. All are good for enhancing your performance at work and improves your well-being.
The simplest way to induce stillness is to take deep breaths.
3-4-5 breathing is a simple exercise devised by @Dr Rangan Chatterjee.
1. Breath in for 3 seconds.
2. Hold your breath for 4 seconds.
