Beautiful. Thank you for sharing this: My greatest passion is to help others who live with chronic illness find their voice. I've lived with chronic illness for past 7 years. I just embarked on an alternative Ayurvedic therapy called Panchakarma. I feel much better, but time will tell if the feeling will sustain. I'll write about it and post soon.

So lovely to meet you here today, thanks so much for taking the time to share your appreciation - I appreciate that🥰🙏 I’d love to hear more about this therapy. Anything that makes you feel better can only lead to improved health - even if that, at times, looks up and down. I’ve been having bodywork therapy on a monthly basis (which I later went on to train in) for 4.5 years. In this time I’ve had 3 health relapses, plenty of hiccups yet overall my health comes out significantly improved year on year. To me that’s the greatest of importance, especially in a world that still tells us what I’ve achieved isn’t possible. Please tag me in your article when you do share it as I’d love to read it and hear more about it x

1. Mornings! And I look forward to it ☺️ I’m sure I’ll be attending in my pjs or comfies and I love that’s the space you’re holding.

2. I’ve been to a guided meditation (it included breath work) in a Buddhist centre in Australia, does that count?

3. Wow big big questions for pondering! I’d love to see what other people say for this one. What makes you feel worthy?

4. Another big one but I think if we felt worthy it’d remove a lot of doubt and fear which are two emotions that hold us back from our true potential. Question I ask myself is what would that look like for me?!

5. Yes! I’m up for a post about this. But be sure to include how you incorporated it into your life and stuck to it. I do enjoy meditation but I just haven’t made it part of my routine!

6. Oh wow that world sounds amazing and I look forward to even a step closer to it.

7. Eye gazing sounds wonderful and I don’t think I’ve ever tried it. How long did you do it for?

We literally only did the eye gazing for a few tiny moments because the feelings came quickly to us. But for others it might take a few moments connecting to your breath, settling into it first. In the tv program they didn’t manage it so they both ran off upstairs to have sex instead - then encountered gripes they couldn’t communicate that turned into big problems later. The latter would’ve been my former approach 😆 life is much easier now I’ve done the hard (inner) work first.

Guided meditation with breathwork in a Buddhist centre sounds wonderful and right up my street. It will be a very different experience to concious connected breathwork but a healing experience nonetheless.

Yey that’s so exciting you’d love to join our warriors writing sessions 🤩🤩🤩🤩 I’m thinking I’ll of a launch date in early spring. March/April - when I get back in my holiday home after the 2 months closure.i have a good feeling about it🙏🩵💙🤩

What makes me feel worthy? Like you say, that’s a big one 😆 a couple of years ago I did a lot of inner work and (guided) reflection around self doubt. As part of a weekly practice for a couple of months, it was shared that worthiness is a birthright. There are a lot of things that are seen as privilege and luxury but actually, it’s our birthright. I did some journalling on worthiness at the time but I can’t remember what I put now. It all helped so much though because now I don’t have so much self doubt - or when I do I can recognise, work through it and overcome it xx
