As society would have it, your life is planned out for you before you know it. There are expectations that you will follow in the footsteps of those before you or take on a life and job which you may not necessarily feel is for you. But it is never too late to discover the life you want to lead. Continue reading “Give Yourself Permission to Live a Champagne Life”

Benefits of Meditation in our New World

There’s no question the last few months have been difficult as we adjusted to a new way of living. Social media and news sites were flooded with statistics and numbers of COVID cases. Exposure to such information can be overwhelming which has led to an increase in depression and mental illness. I have done my best to avoid reading the latest speculation and alternative news reports which used to pop up in my social media newsfeed.

Addicted to Technology

Today it seems impossible to walk down the street without bumping into someone looking down. They are not looking at the ground though, but instead their attention is focused on the smart phone in hand. Has society become so reliant on their phones that they don’t remember what it is like to interact with a real person? Are we putting our health and wellbeing at risk by staring at a screen all day?
