Ever heard of TFT or thought field therapy? It’s a life and mind shifter.

TFT is a type of psychotherapy that manipulates how energy travels through your body. When you feel an energy being built up and blocked, TFT will help you release it through your thought fields.

Creating quality habits – 21 Day Challenge!

At the very last minute a couple of months back, I decided to sign up for a 21 day challenge. It was last minute because I’d been thinking about it for days and knew that I hadn’t committed – and followed through – on anything for that length of time in a very long time, probably pre-kids was the last time. It scared me, but the $47 investment made me have skin in the game and made me value it,…

How to identify wasteful thoughts – what Brahma Kumaris taught me.

It was a pivotal point in my life where I started to really understand the power of our thoughts and…

It’s good to be on your own sometimes.

We live in a world that feel likes it’s travelling at the speed of light sometimes. Well not literally, but you know what I mean. Since coming out of lockdown in Melbourne late last year, life has started to ramp up again. Coordinating and enjoying holidays away, getting the kids ready for school about to start, playdates, errands, activities, housework…that elusive “me” time. I still can’t process that it’s a new year. Anyone else feel like last year has just…

Harmonise your mind and body with yoga.

⁠⁠I remember when I first started my yoga practice around 8 or so years ago now, which was a combination of tai chi, pilates and yoga. The soulful Liana from Akari Yoga & Fitness ran classes near me at the time (I highly recommend you look her up both online and if you’re near Kyneton). ⁠ It was a time I had a racing mind pretty much constantly and needed to find a way to calm it the F down,…
