Did you know it's Clean Your Desk Day today? I really should pay heed...

Disclaimer: this is not my desk. My desk is waaaaaaay more 'interesting'*

*cluttered

Do you subscribe to the 'calm environment, calm mind' theory? I think I do. I just never quite manage to prioritise it...
I'm off to clear my desk. You?

This dropped into my inbox, unsolicited. It made me smile for days. Who else wants help with learning to live with their inner critic?

Thank you Katie! x

"The Quiet the Hive Living with your Inner Critic webinar was a hugely worthwhile way to spend an evening. The structure of the content and the exercises throughout are just right to keep the pace moving while allowing participants time to reflect on their own experience.

Without wanting to provide a spoiler, the section on why our inner critic exists within us was not something I had heard before and has helped me so much. The QtH tips have enabled me to gently "talk back" and control thoughts when my inner critic is not needed. Thank you Jane!"

Today is International Letter Writing Week. Who do

Today is International Letter Writing Week. Who doesn't love receiving a handwritten letter in the post? It seems a really thoughtful and simple way to reach out to people right now.

This week, as part of my #threethingssunday, I am writing letters to three people. It feels lovely to do, and sometimes it means you might get one back too!

Stunningly beautiful frost for #threethingssunday

Stunningly beautiful frost for #threethingssunday today. I tried my best to capture it for you, but like all these things they’re best in real life!

How are you? Really? I’ve found this week incredibly hard emotionally. Three huge pieces of news to take in on Monday including the lockdown, disappointing news on the house purchase front and a tricky new rota to balance with childcare. On Tuesday I cried hard in a meeting. So much so I had to turn the camera off. It was a story of a poorly treated carer that just tipped me over the edge. On Wednesday I noticed all the triggers for me that appear with my feelings of depression. A conversation with a very dear friend has helped me notice and deal with it, leaning on tools I learned through CBT.

The faces I’ve seen this week all look close to breaking. No one is sleeping well and everything just feels tough. Emotions are high. And that is to be expected. I share all that in the hopes of letting you know you’re not alone.

On Friday we shared advice. So many funny and heart felt pieces shared. Thank you. My advice to you is to notice what’s going on for you and sit with it. It’s okay to feel what you’re feeling.

And so. If you managed a 3/3 this week - good on you! I managed 2; no school night drinking and a QtH day. Didn’t do so well in managing the day job stress! 😬

How did you get on and what are your three intentions for this week. Mine are aligned with my intentions for 2021, and so this week I will:
1) Finalise my 2021 intentions and ambitions after some lovely conversations about mini adventures with people I love
2) Do at least 5,000 steps a day (that feels so bizarre, I used to nail 12k a day easily...)
3) Write and post three letters to recognise international letter writing week

Let’s be having them...

Happy week ahead lovely. We’re in it together.

When you think about it, it’s quite easy to tell

When you think about it, it’s quite easy to tell when your inner critic is filling your head, but sometimes we don’t really notice and assume it’s the truth. If you can practise spotting her you can start to manage her.

✏️ What three words would you use to describe how your inner critic talks to you?

What’s the BEST piece of advice you’ve ever be

What’s the BEST piece of advice you’ve ever been given?

Can I have two?

@hannahlou76 told my, when I had my first baby, “no matter what, just remember ‘it’s just a phase” - crikey that has helped my through some mega tantrums (theirs AND mine!) 😎

And my Dad (I know you love all of his advice) told me when I started my NHS career “be nice to everyone you meet. You will definitely bump into them again”. He was, as always, right. It’s stood me in SUCH good stead. 😇

I’d love to hear your nuggets of wisdom. Share them with us and let’s head into the weekend fully armed with wisdom!

This is a blatant shout out to my tribe. It’s a tough time and many of us are struggling but I know that my crew have got me when I wobble.

Thank you beautiful people. Big love and huge gratitude.

Who catches you when you wobble? Give them a shout out here 🥰

Today is Epiphany. It's a day of reglious importance to Christians, and also traditionally the day when the Christmas decorations come down. I always miss the fairy lights, but I'm going to make sure that I'm surrounded by the warm glow and sparkle in other ways. We may all have to work that little bit harder at that at the moment.

I have to admit that this year I took the decorations down on Sunday knowing that there wouldn't be time today.

Are yours already down?

Last night, in amongst the announcement that we are in national lockdown again, I ran a session for seven wonderful and inspiring women ensuring we were clear on our intentions for 2021. That we are bringing intentions grown from joy and love and passion and inspiration. That we know what we want, and what we're going to do to get it. Bring it on 2021, we're ready for you.

I know what brings me joy. I know who I need in my life, what adventures, what movement and peace. I am clear on my aims and my trajectory is true. Throw what you want. I am ready.

I know what I'm leaving behind and what I'm bringing with me. I know what makes my heart sing, makes me feel whole, challenges and rewards me.

I am clear on where my focus is, how I want to feel and where I am going.

I am ready.

Renewal.

2021. Bring it on.

We can. Honestly.

This next level of news will have hit many of us hard. So many sacrifices, heartbreaks, difficult situations. Turn to the places and the people that bring you joy, that make you feel safe and loved, and will be right alongside you.

It’s okay to feel what you’re feeling. Sit with it. Sleep. Rest.

Let me know what you need.

Three little berries found by my sons for #ThreeTh

Three little berries found by my sons for #ThreeThingsSunday on our walk.

How has your week been? In a week that encompassed two separate years I hope that you have found peace, refreshment and an enthusiasm for the coming year.

Have you been doing the seven day challenge this week? Perhaps some of your three things Sunday this week come from that.

I have smashed my three for this week. It’s been so much fun cooking more, I’ve done my vision board, and I am ready for the retrospective tomorrow night. Are you coming?

My three for the week ahead are:
1) Don’t let the stress of returning to the day job overwhelm me. I’ll know if I’ve managed this by not needing an alcoholic drink each evening!
2) talking of which, I will go back to not drinking on school nights. I feel so much better for it. I need to up my intake of vegetables too!
3) spend a full day on Quiet the Hive on Monday so that I really feel like I’m kicking the year off on the right foot.

What are your intentions for the week ahead?

If you’ve been sitting on the sidelines wanting to join in but not sure how, the first three things Sunday of 2021 is a good place to start. Do join us by adding your intentions below.

Have a good one!

PS Link in bio if you want to join me tomorrow evening in setting clear, achievable intentions this year.

Happy New Year lovely!
My word for 2021 is renewal, meaning give new life or strength to. So many new beginnings and so much growth due this year; a sense of anticipation and lifting, rising.

That’s mine. What’s yours?
