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…

Clear your mind with a journal.

 “Journaling is like whispering to one’s self and listening at the same time.” – Mina Murray ⁠ A great activity for encouraging mindfulness is journaling. Remember writing in your secret diary when you were a kid, well journaling is the adult version of that. If you’re feeling stressed, anxious or worried, picking up a pen and writing down what you’re feeling can help you take your mind off things. It’s also great for when you feel great too – it…

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,…

Pukka Tea

I LOVE drinking tea. Which might sound odd, considering I’m of Italian heritage and coffee is deeply entrenched in our culture and family way of life. I don’t mind coffee occasionally, I just much prefer tea. ⠀ Tea makes me feel relaxed, peaceful, happy, chilled and is perfect shared with a friend. It seems to soothe any conversation and help heal the soul.⠀ I don’t mind what flavour either … which was great considering on my last visit to Healthy…

My Morning Routine – what does yours look like?

What do you do when you first wake up?⠀ Check your phone? Have a warm tea or coffee, or lemon water perhaps? Give bubs a bottle? Have brekky? Chill out on the couch for a bit. Yeah, me too.⠀ ⠀ Pre-baby though, I had a very different morning routine. One I am desperate to get back to, albeit I know it will be a little modified, with the addition of little one in our lives now. My routine was based…

Wardrobe Declutter

This is what I would like my wardrobe to look like, not what it actually looks like ha ha. But I’m striving for it!⠀ So I’ve already shared that I’ve been decluttering our entire home through January in order to clear my mind and be ready for the year ahead. In only a few days, we are back in our design studio and will be in the thick of it. It’s been amazing to clear the junk out of our…

Declutter Wayne Dyer Quote

Over the past few weeks, I’ve been on a decluttering binge fest. Thanks, Peter Walsh.⠀ And boy, does it feel good. 😊⠀ Everything is getting cleared out. The spare room (which hubby and I affectionately call “the room no one speaks of”) is currently the dumping ground for everything that doesn’t have a place – it’s getting a massive overhaul. Everything is going that: I haven’t touched in over a year, has long-term dust on it (you know what I’m…

Mindfulness

Is your life peaceful?⠀ A peaceful life, inside and out. ⠀ ⠀ We all strive for it. Sometimes we experience it, other times, we don’t. ⠀ And it all comes down to our mind, and the choices we make for it.⠀ ⠀ Mindfulness is a therapeutic practice of focusing on the present moment and calmly acknowledging and accepting your feelings, thoughts and bodily sensations.⠀ ⠀ Many of us live our lives allowing situations and our minds to master us and…

Juliet – My Why

Some days, weeks and even months can challenge us beyond what we think we can handle. Juggling motherhood and the rest of life’s ups and downs is my challenge right now. But we are stronger than we think. Challenge pushes you to become resilient and find a strength to keep going from depths you didn’t know existed. That’s why I focus on my why, my reason to keep going, my positive pure little beacon of light – my adorable little…
