What do you think about this?

Whether or not you subscribe to the idea that our energy is dictated by the moon, on Sunday 10th March there is a new moon. This is how you might be feeling:

like you just need to let that s*** go (that's how I feel) - via a big bath and a cry (that's me), a dance in the kitchen, a run, a massive journalling session...

It's also absolutely true that whilst the following patterns or observations will feel familiar to many women, others won't relate to these themes at these times. What is true for everyone, however, is that the more consistently you track (and the more you choose to value this process) the huge amount you, your body and your business will thrive. 

How are you feeling now that we’re well into the second month of the year? Have those new year’s resolutions faded, or are you thriving? Whatever your current situation, I'd like you to remember three things:

- you're not "ill-disciplined" if today/ this week you need to slowly, gently ease back into your work

6 things I wanted to share with you…

I was writing some thoughts down earlier, and wanted to share them with you, albeit it in a more beautiful way than I'd originally scrawled, so here’s a love letter from me to you:

Social media has been an incredibly useful tool in helping me build awareness of and engagement with Power of Mum. I've met some brilliant people and my posts have been shared and commented on regularly.

It's also been a genuine source of anxiety, obsession and addiction. It's felt like there's been so much pressure:

Sometimes, we get so caught up in our own heads that we forget to simply be in the moment. But here's the deal: life is like a crazy, beautiful, messy painting, and if we're always stuck in our heads, we'll miss out on all those amazing brushstrokes.

Mindset can also be referred to as working on your attitude, your general psyche, your energy, your approach, your beliefs...

I always think it’s a bit like hypnobirthing - our brain associates certain words or phrases with certain physical or emotional responses. Training our brain to surround itself with a set of words, approaches and attitudes that are inherently associated with positive outcomes can, in turn, generate more positive outcomes.

In a world that often races against the clock, it's vital to remember that life's most meaningful achievements and profound joys are rarely rushed. The path to success is not a sprint but a journey where every step counts. Embrace the process, cultivate balance, and celebrate the small victories along the way. True success is found in the harmony of a life well-lived, one that enriches not only your career but your very essence. So, take your time, savour the moments, and watch as your unique journey unfolds into a masterpiece of fulfilment and purpose.

In a world that often demands more from us than we can give, self-care has emerged as an essential lifeline. It's not just a trendy catchphrase; it's a lifeline to inner peace and resilience. By focusing on the trio of mind, body, and soul, we unlock the potential for transformative change in our lives.

Remember, self-care should be accessible, self-reflective, and rejuvenating. It's about finding solace in the simple and the sacred, in the quiet moments and the joyful movements. It's about nurturing your mind when it races, celebrating your body for all it does, and feeding your soul with the joys that make your heart sing.

Embrace the power of self-care as a daily ritual, and watch as it transforms your life one mindful, nurturing, and joyful moment at a time. Your well-being deserves nothing less.

Because our brains and souls need it. They’re crying for us to engage in the sticky challenge of making something new, to stretch our creative muscles. It’s not just about acquiring a new possession; it’s about experiencing the profound, deeper chemical response of being more than mere consumers. It’s the satisfaction of doing something for the sake of the journey, rather than the outcome.
