Hillary needs a health coach

I just attempted to buy a picture of Hilary Clinton in NY on the weekend & Getty images wanted to charge me $266. So you get this instead. A serene, peaceful, reflective lake in the Catskills, somewhere anyone would do well to recuperate. Taken and fully owned by me!

Living in the US as I do, whilst I'm unable to vote does expose me to all the politics that goes with this great country. Right now we are in the middle of the most comedic election of all time. With Donald Trump jumping into his clown suit on a daily basis expounding all manner of ridiculousness (in my humble opinion). But I am not here to push any political party or agenda. Even though #dumptrump #hillaryforthewin #i'mwithher.

Just like in recovery 'it works if you work it'

In my last post I talked about manifestation and committed to a 2+ minute daily practice. Each day I would visualize and deeply feel my future excellent life unfold.  Today I'm back to report on my progress.  It's a mixed bag.

Week one was a big success.  Both because I genuinely felt more optimistic and also I noticed actual changes. I think I was experiencing endorphins as a result of my heart swelling visualizations!  Amazing right?! Which meant my personal vibe actually increased. At least I think that is how I best explain what happened. What happened was more of the type of opportunities needed to live into my dreams appearing before my eyes. People, invitations, informations. That sort of thing.

Manifesting magic

How on earth have four weeks passed since my last post?  Summer in this city called NYC is definitely the busiest time of the year for me. Although calling it summer in the city is a huge stretch, because I've hardly been here.  In fact since my last post I have attended 3 weddings, two outside of NYC, travelled to a conferene at Disneyland, spent a week on the West Coast (Lake Tahoe/Wanderlust Squaw Valley/wedding in Salem Oregon, wineries, food & hiking in Portland), Montauk, Nashville, St Louis.  There is actually more but you get the gist!

Of all these adventures, it was unsurprisingly Wanderlust that triggered the subject of this post. Although the pic above was taken on my hike in Portland yesterday.

Do you think you might benefit from a health coach?

, ,

After the post I wrote last week, I know I could do with one myself.  Which got me thinking that given I am qualified in the area, it would be a good exercise to give you a demo using myself as the subject. 

Excuse me while I talk about myself in the 3rd person in this post! Below I'm going to give you some insight into the health coaching processs.  From my POV a health coach offers support and accountability in a safe space. Here's what could happen in the first couple of sessions. 

I have a confession....

I saw these words on Instagram this week and they thoroughly resonated with me. 

Given the goal of this blog is generally inspiration for good health &happiness, this is a harder post for me to write. The truth is, I don’t feel like I’ve been an inspiration to anybody of late. Not even a little bit. In fact last weekend before I even saw this quote (and of course re-gramed it!) I told a good friend that I currently feel a little broken. Unhealthy too.

Moving tips learned the hard way

,

I moved to my new neighborhood last weekend. There were/are certainly some mixed emotions involved. Moving meant leaving the building where Nicole and I shared an apartment. And saying goodbye to my treasured doormen whom I had grown to rely on. But, despite the heavy heart, I knew it was time. Time to lean into my dream of living in the West Village. To embrace a new experience. And I'm sure Nicole would be in full support.

Along the way, I learned a few lessons, which I thought worthy of sharing in a post. This is more about the emotion than the physical stuff. And whilst its about moving house, the lessons here are really more about going through change - & could be applied elsewhere too.

5 simple keys to happiness at work

,

Work (I mean career) has been on my mind a lot of late and has been finding its way into this blog, as a result. Which is kind of strange given that the sentiment is more about making sure you have a life filled with joy and working is not something that generally evokes that emotion.

Which has me thinking about why. Last week I was chatting to someone about this matter and I came out with this statement. "I'm enjoying my career right now, I'm doing work I'm proud of and getting a ton of positive reinforcement" and he responded with, "well yes that's how it's supposed to be".  And isn't that rather telling. It is just so damn simple.
