Feeling so light and in abundance today!

I've been able to support a lovely lady with mental health recovery needs and planning forward, sold into my not even launched programme (not due to launch for a month!), welcomed 3 ladies into my transformational programmes at Aleafia Wellness Centre, AND accepted 2 ladies into my coaching programmes from the British Libraries initiative I mentor for...

Then I completed on an order for 29 copies of my 'The Aleafia Way Guided Journal'!

Had to be 29 as I also sold one to a lovely lady today when she came in specifically for it! .... so didn't have the 30 to hand!

Days like today come when we are in alignment, business does NOT need to be hard... no hustle.

If anyone else wants anything from me today... my doors are wide open!

PS. I feel like Mr. Bennett in Pride & Prejudice accepting marriages to his daughters... anyone else know what I mean?!

Are you hustling hard but still feeling unfulfilled? You're not alone.⁠
⁠
As a successful woman in business, you’re hitting those ambitious targets, but at what cost? Stress, burnout, middle tyre, low libido and a lingering sense of emptiness?⁠
⁠
It’s time for a reality check.⁠
⁠
The truth is, Hustle culture glorifies relentless work, but it's taking a toll on your mental health and happiness. Studies reveal that 76% of employees experience burnout at least sometimes, with many suffering from anxiety and depression.⁠
⁠
Sound familiar?⁠
⁠
Real success and happiness come from balance—not just in business, but in life. Prioritising your wellbeing, nurturing meaningful relationships, and finding joy in your daily activities are crucial steps toward true fulfilment.⁠
⁠
Dr. Emma Seppälä highlights that our culture of constant busyness diminishes both productivity and creativity. It’s time to rethink our approach.⁠
⁠
Just imagine waking up each day with energy, feeling genuinely happy and fulfilled, and still achieving your business goals without the grind. This isn't a fantasy—it's entirely possible. The key lies in redefining success on your terms.⁠
⁠
Here’s how we can start:⁠
⁠
👉 Set Clear Boundaries: Separate work time from personal time. It’s essential for maintaining mental health.⁠
👉 Embrace Mindfulness: Incorporate mindfulness practices to stay present and reduce stress.⁠
👉 Invest in Relationships: Spend quality time with loved ones. Strong connections are vital for long-term happiness.⁠
👉 Follow Your Passions: Engage in activities that bring you joy and fulfilment beyond work.⁠
⁠
Are you ready to transform your life and achieve a level of success that includes true happiness and well-being? I’m here to guide you every step of the way.⁠
⁠
Let's redefine your success and embrace a life of true fulfilment. Ready to make the shift? Dive in with me and discover the power of living a balanced, joyful, and successful life. 🌟⁠

Ready to learn how to spot the signs that your nervous system is out of whack?

Navigating high-stakes environments can put constant pressure on your nervous system. Here’s a look at the subtler signs that might indicate your nervous system is struggling under the demands of a high-powered role.

Acknowledging these less obvious symptoms is the first step towards enhanced resilience and performance.

1. Subtle Concentration Slips: Finding it harder to focus on details? Minor lapses in concentration can be early signs of nervous system fatigue.

2. Low Resilience to Stress: If small setbacks feel insurmountable, it could mean your nervous system is reaching its limit.

3. Minor Memory Mistakes: Forgetting keys is one thing, but slipping on client details or missing meetings could be your brain signaling a need for downtime.

4. Increased Irritability: Short fuses might be your nervous system's response to prolonged stress overload.

5. Subdued Decision-Making: Hesitation or uncertainty in decision-making can indicate a taxed nervous system.

6. Low-Grade Anxiety: Persistent apprehension about everyday activities can be subtle yet significant.

7. Unexplained Low Energy: Feeling drained even after rest could indicate neural exhaustion.

8. Social Withdrawal: Opting out of social engagements due to feeling overwhelmed can be a protective response.

9. Mild Persistent Somatic Complaints: Frequent, minor physical ailments without a clear cause can signal underlying stress.

10. Sensitivity to Stimuli: Unusual irritation by light, sound, or crowds can indicate a nervous system on high alert.

Recognising these symptoms is critical.

So … did you nod your head? Admit a silent “uh-huh!”???

Addressing them proactively can safeguard your health, enhancing both personal well-being and professional efficacy.

I have a few spots available for one-off 121’s to chat all things you and your nervous system AND your ’prescription’ to get out of overwhelm… ACTUAL things YOU need to do….

Link is in my bio! 😉

Do you recognise any? Or maybe you have stepped away from these symptoms?

Today marks twenty years since the profound silence descended—the day my brother Sam left this world of his own choice.

Reflecting on this milestone, it’s not just about loss; it’s about what happens after. I went to bed one person, and woke up another. Two sides to a coin.

Back then, grappling with the raw edges of grief pushed me into a labyrinth of pain and confusion. But here’s the thing: it didn’t actually break me. There was a long period that it seemingly was to the outside world.

In time it forced me to dive deep into understanding human resilience and the reality of post-traumatic growth. These aren’t just clinical terms to toss around—they’re the signposts of my journey through healing and helping others.

There have been moments, fleeting and vivid, where I’ve sensed Sam’s presence. Just this past weekend, his face flashed before my eyes, and for a moment, I felt an overwhelming sense of safety. It’s a complex cocktail of comfort and fear, this engagement with the ‘other side’—yet another layer of this journey I’m still navigating.

What I’ve learned is that each moment of darkness cradles a potential spark of light. And trust me, I really lean into this!

If I could, I’d bring Sam back in a heartbeat to share these insights face-to-face. But that’s not how this works. Instead, I use his decision as fuel for my mission. That’s a promise that I carry with me—a promise that dies with me.

Sam’s absence has been a catalyst for my purpose: to reach out, to understand, and to guide others through their pain and struggles. To live life to the FULLEST!

His life and his leaving have sparked a legacy of compassion and understanding—a legacy that I am determined to continue.

Sam, you’re not here, but you’re helping me make a difference. How incredible is that?! You’ve given me a real purpose, and for that, I am strangely grateful.

You’re my one more angel in heaven, one more star in the sky.

Never forgotten, always inspiring. This is how I honour you—loudly and lovingly, far from the silence.

To everyone reading this, remember, the journey through darkness isn’t one to walk alone. Let’s light up the dark, together. ***de

That’s it… all done and dusted…

Ha! As if! It’s only the beginning! And more than anything that excites me the most.

So having wrapped up the all-day event to launch the journal, then actually setting it live to purchase online…. that had me riding the wave of peak performance for about four days straight! 🚀

Now, the challenge? Easing down from that peak without crashing to a halt. It's all about mastering the art of Hyper Performance – finding that sweet smooth slide down to high levels of performance with skill!

It’s important not to go at it for too long so you CRASH and BURN… so getting it right is about lowering down, but without dipping too low. 🌊➡️🏔️

I thought I would share with you my go to activities (or non-activities) to complete this transition smoothly that you can ALL do!

🛌💤 Take Rest:
It's crucial to allow your body and mind to recover.

🚶‍♀️🧘‍♀️Move a Little:
I’m keeping movement gentle and restorative.

🥗🌈Eat Well:
Nutrition is key. I’m filling my plate with vibrant, nutrient-packed foods.

📺😌Switch Off with... Crap TV:
Yep, you read that right. When I need my brain to take a break without shutting down completely, my secret weapon is indulging in some good old-fashioned, mindless television. It’s about letting my mind wander without the pressure to be productive.

This mix of rest, mindful movement, solid nutrition, and yes, even some guilt-free screen time, is my formula for coming down from the highs of peak performance without hitting the lows. It's all about balance and knowing what your body and mind need to reset.

Other things I do that support me are: hot and cold therapy (my sauna blanket and the shower/ice bath), acupuncture, EFT and Somatic movement & breathwork (feel free to ask me about these - I will OH SO HAPPILY TELL YOU!).

So, tell me, how do you transition from peak performance? Got any recovery rituals that help you stay in that sweet spot?
Drop below your tips, tricks, or even better - what are your favourite “crap TV” recommendations? I would love to add more to my Netflix waitlist!

Let’s navigate the highs and lows together, supporting each other to perform at our best. 🌟💪

Welcome to April, my friends! We've just stepped into Q2 of 2024, and it's the perfect moment to take a beat and reflect on our journey so far.

If you've smashed your goals for the first quarter, hats off to you! It's time to harness that momentum and shift up a gear. But remember, evolution doesn't always mean going bigger; sometimes, it means going deeper. Maybe this quarter is your chance for some behind-the-scenes magic, laying down the bricks for that empire you're building—solid foundations, my friends, create the most unshakeable structures.

Now, for those who feel like they haven't quite hit the mark yet, let's get one thing straight: It's absolutely OK. We're only three months in; that's just a tiny slice of the 2024 pie. There's a vast expanse of time ahead to reroute, refine, and rise. Think of it this way: January through March was your lab time, a period for trial, error, and tons of learning. It's all about gaining insights and using them to recalibrate.

So, let's use this as an opportunity to dive deep into what these past months have taught us. What worked? What didn’t? And most importantly, how can we tweak our strategies to make sure the rest of the year is not just about recovery, but about thriving? It's time to get strategic and intentional. Remember, it's never too late to reshape the year to align with your ambitions.

Before we dive into the rest of the year, pause and ask yourself: are you in the best condition to work to YOUR absolute best to get you where you want to be? What else, apart from business strategy, needs working on...? ;)

It’s not just about the hustle; it’s about being holistically primed for it. Your health, mindset, and inner balance are as crucial as your business plan.

Let's approach the rest of 2024 with a mindset geared towards growth, resilience, and relentless pursuit of our goals. Because remember, success isn't just about hitting every target; it's about how you adapt, evolve, and move forward, no matter what.

Here's to you and a Q2 filled with purpose, progress, and a whole lot of personal victories.

Are you a carry on as I am... or are you making changes in Q2?! I'd love to see the mix of where people are at!

Thrilled doesn’t even begin to cover it! 🌟

After months of pouring my heart, soul, and every ounce of PEPE (that’s Personal Experience and Professional

Expertise, for those in the know 😉) into this project, the launch of The Aleafia Way journal is officially on the horizon - 15 April 2024!

Ahhh! Eek! 

This isn’t just any journal. It’s a culmination of what I’ve always needed through my own life’s journey, combined with my professional expertise as a health practitioner and positive psychology coach. Trust me, so much has gone into making this not just a journal, but a transformative tool for holistic wellness.

The most special part? It’s fully customisable! 

Yes, you heard that right. You can select your own themed journal prompts, making this journey as unique as you are.
So whether you’re looking for self-confidence, or business mindset… it WORKS FOR YOU!

This is my favourite feature because it means the journal can be tailored just for you, for that personal touch we all crave.

It also means I can continually add to it without you needing to buy it again, well not until the next 3 month period anyway 😉

And because I can’t wait to share this with all of you, I’m throwing an official launch event and you’re all invited! Mark your calendars: Saturday, 13 April at Aleafia Wellness Centre, Barnstaple, Devon. It’s going to be a day filled with wellness, inspiration, and a chance to dive deep into what makes The Aleafia Way so special. PLUS free training sessions and 121’s AND on top of that….a tasting menu buffet from - we’re going all out!

This launch is a dream come true and a common request from many of you. I’m buzzing with excitement to finally share it with the world.

So come along, let’s celebrate the start of a journey that’s been a long time in the making.

Here’s to wellness, bespoke growth, and a journey that’s as unique as each and every one of us.

See you there! 💪✨

As we gear up for the clocks to spring forward this weekend, on 31/3, which also happens to be Easter Sunday, it’s the perfect opportunity to align our sleep patterns.

No one wants to start off their Easter feeling like they’ve been hit with jet lag, right?

Here’s a plan to tweak your sleep schedule without the drama.

Our bodies thrive on routine, and even a small shift like a one-hour change can throw us off. Gradually adjusting your sleep time and wake time by 10-15 minutes each day can help your internal clock adapt without the shock.

This way, you’re working with your body, not against it.

🛌 Starting Tonight: Shift your bedtime and wake time 10-15 minutes earlier. If you usually hit the hay at 10 PM, aim for 9:45 PM.
⏰ Increase Incrementally: Each day, pull back another 10-15 minutes until you’ve adjusted a full hour. By the time Saturday rolls around, you’re on your new schedule.
🔑 Consistency is Key: Stick to these times even on the weekend. Yes, it’s tempting to have a lie-in, especially on Easter Sunday, but your body will thank you for the consistency.

Supporting Your Transition Further:
☀️ Light Exposure: Make daylight your ally. Morning light signals your brain to wake up, so open those curtains as soon as you get up.
🌙 Evening Routine: Dim the lights and cut down on screen time an hour before your new bedtime. This tells your body it’s time to wind down.
🏃 Stay Active: Regular exercise can help regulate your sleep patterns. Just avoid vigorous activity close to bedtime.
🥗 Mind Your Meals: A light evening meal without heavy or spicy foods can promote better sleep. Also, watch the caffeine and alcohol intake.

Remember:
This isn’t just about losing an hour of sleep; it’s an opportunity to reset and rejuvenate. By nudging our sleep schedule in small, manageable increments, we can ease into BST feeling refreshed, rather than resentful.

Let’s embrace this change and see it as a fresh start.

This Easter, alongside celebrating new beginnings, we’re also celebrating our adaptability and resilience.

Here’s to longer days, more sunshine, and all the new possibilities that lie ahead.
