What Does Your Body Say About You?
This article was inspired by an article I recently read at MindBodyGreen. I started thinking about all the things our bodies can say about us. While the article above primarily focuses on health issues that can be indicated by various physical signs, I started thinking about the things our bodies say about us; and more importantly, […]
This Is What Happens When You Stop Making An Effort in your relationship…
Disney has a lot to answer for when it comes to preparing kids for real life. Stories about falling in love always end with “I do” – but we all know that’s where the hard work begins.
Relationships need nurture and care. Not just in the first flush of romance. Not just when you’re falling in love. Not just on your honeymoon.
You Are Not Your Emotions – Have negative emotions from your breakup got you trapped in a downward spiral?
Have negative emotions from your breakup got you trapped in a downward spiral? People tend to define themselves (and others) by their emotions. He’s an angry man. She’s such a happy child. She’s a jealous girlfriend. What a cry-baby. But your emotions aren’t your identity, or even your personality. They’re chemicals that our body releases in response to physical stimuli, thoughts […]
What Do Women Want? How to recover from infidelity after marriage
Men didn’t just make up an estimated 95% of the site (once you discount all of the fake accounts and sex workers from the female profiles). They were also the only ones paying to use it. They had to pay to join, pay to send messages, pay to make sure women saw their messages first, and pay to open messages that were sent to them.

Give Yourself And Your Kids A Break: You Can’t Be Happy All The Time
The social media showcase When you picked up your phone this morning, what was the first thing you did? Did you have a quick skim through Facebook or Instagram? Take a sneaky peak at who “liked” that photo of you out having fun? Did you feel your mood sagging slightly if no one noticed – or get […]
Are You Using Your Kids As an (Emotional) Human Shield?
I’m sure I don’t have to tell you that trash-talking the “other” parent is hurtful to your kids. I don’t have to tell you that fighting and hurling insults at each in front of them will cause them distress. I probably don’t even have to tell you that kids naturally blame themselves when their parents break […]
Waiting Around For Pain to Heal Won’t Work
One Sunday in November, I sat down in a busy coffee shop in Los Angeles. Four women were sitting alone, each quietly drinking their coffee. I observed their postures, their body language, their facial expressions… their sadness. All of a sudden one woman jumped up, wiped her eyes and dashed off. After a while, the […]
Don’t Do It! Why You Are Not YOU In a Trauma
I’m still chuckling from a hilarious call with one of my Angels-in-Training. We could not stop laughing about the things we have to do to keep our groups on track on the 21-day Emotional Freedom program. Just the other day someone posted that they were ‘just settling into the garden chilling enjoying a beer’. I […]

Does Time Heal? They Say 18 Months – I Say 21 Days!
A survey covered in this Daily Mail article interviewed 155 people and found that breakups take 11 weeks to get over on average. The article also says it takes 18 months to get over a divorce. Actually, I’d say with no good strategy, even breakups take 18 months to heal from. It may take just […]
