Monday Mantra:: It’s Safe for Me To Be Human
Children have this knack of being themselves. When they're happy, they are outwardly happy and joyous. When they're sad, they cry. Somewhere between childhood and adulthood though, we're taught to pretend that we're okay, even if we're not. We're taught to be calm even when we're happy. Often as adults, we find ourselves in … Continue reading Monday Mantra:: It’s Safe for Me To Be Human
Sleep Well
Frustrating isn’t it? When you can’t sleep. You’ve had a big day, you’re tired and you can’t wait to get to bed. You snuggle in at 9:30pm; take a few deep breaths and think “Ahhh…yes. Sleep time.” That is until you roll over (for what feels like the one hundredth time) and check the clock. … Continue reading Sleep Well
Monday Mantra:: Everything Is Wow!

Symptoms are your body's … Continue reading Let’s get (Meta)Physical
Monday Mantra:: Silence Is Golden
I struggled to decide to put up as today's Monday Mantra. To be honest, I had a few ideas but none o them really felt right today. I think that's because sometimes, no words are better. We've gotten use to constantly listening to music, watching video's, the TV and talking on the phone and that's … Continue reading Monday Mantra:: Silence Is Golden

These two … Continue reading Monday Mantra:: I Allow Myself to Receive
Kinesiology Is Not A Magic Bullet
Kinesiology is not a magic bullet. Kinesiology requires you to look at yourself, your patterns, your thoughts, behaviours and your emotions. It's not always easy but it is always worth it. I have the benefit of working in both a specialist kinesiology centre as well as a multidisciplinary clinic. Here's what I have noticed. People … Continue reading Kinesiology Is Not A Magic Bullet
WHOLE-istic Wellness (Part 2)
It always bugged me that I spelt holistic wrong. Every single time, I had to correct it. And now I know why. It's because it should be Wholistic. Not Holistic. And since yesterdays post I've been pondering this even further. Here's where my trail of thought is going at the moment. The definitions of Holistic: … Continue reading WHOLE-istic Wellness (Part 2)
