It feels like the right time to share how I support and manage my life each day.

I do not do ‘perfect’. I have ‘blips’ but essentially I live my life, balanced, calm, and peaceful. A life I have come to enjoy love and cherish.

I spent many years hitting the brick wall, with a payoff of struggles frustration and health challenges. Life as I knew it was not supporting me. Once I took responsibility and made the decision to let go of the old ways and embrace a new way of daily living everything changed

Don’t be afraid to ask the question/s ‘If I do this what is the fallout the payoff and how will I feel later?’

By building a programme and schedule that sustains energy and well-being…. everything will begin to flow just like a stream or a river as it gently meanders with focus to its destination.

Work Hours –

My energy hours of inspiration to write are

• Early morning.
• I take breaks to stretch outside breathing in and out deeply.
• I walk in nature or by the sea.
• By sipping a mug of green tea, mid-morning works for me.
• I finish my working day by early afternoon.

Exercise:-

A great way to start and end my day :-
Yoga, at other times, I take gentle walks in nature or by the coast in Rye and East Sussex.

Over the summer months, my healing therapy is lying on a stony beach listening to the lapping waves or swimming….That is my ‘Being’ time, A chance to reflect and mindfully swim in the tranquil waters.

My Rest Hours:- 2 – 3 hours each spent sleeping, practising reiki, and meditation.  Reading books that inspire and uplift me or listening to gentle healing music, work.

These hours away from the page, keep pressure and anxiety to a minimum.

In my experience, the more relaxed I feel means a better quality and a deeper night’s sleep.

The Food I Eat:-

Regular meal times to sustain my blood sugar and energy.

Eating the right clean and lean food for energy, and taking organic supplements (fine-tuned) to support my immune system and general health. Organic rainbow-coloured fresh fruit, and vegetables, in season with good quality protein, including organic Tofu. I keep away from the cow, dairy, wheat, white carbs and white sugar and eat organic brown rice or locally grown sweet potato when available. I sprinkle nuts and seeds as toppings on salads.
I drink 2 cups of organic quality coffee each morning, two litres of pure water, and in between a cup of natural green and white tea. Fruit or vegetable juices freshly made by ‘yours truly’ play a small part in how I eat.

I enjoy the odd glass of wine, or champagne, eating an occasional piece of organic dark chocolate. Best for me to finish eating before 8 pm with only an oatcake before bed if I need it.

More to follow next week….. where I shall reveal a more about what works for me.

I have come to know it is never too late, each of us can change ‘how we do’ if we want to. Follow and plan a regime that works for you and only do what you love and feel passionate about …. ‘Change comes with a single step followed by another followed by….’
