Ways to Feel a Little Happier! Rituals of Self Preservation, Samskaras and a New Moon Solar Eclipse
Today the New Moon Solar Eclipse in Leo and it’s strong emotional influence prompted the instinct for me to write again. I haven’t written in a while, which can induce pangs of guilt and anxiety at the fact of time going by without dividing all of your attention to the things you wish to. Instead of indulging in the guilt, I shall write.

My Battle with Sleep
I’ve always had a bit of a love hate relationship with sleep. Having worked in an industry for years which required me to be up before the birds - most mornings between 4:30 and 6am.

Go out to meet friends when I’m absolutely knackered and would rather get to bed early. There aren’t enough hours in the day. So we end up putting ourselves down the bottom of the list, we shrug our shoulders and just go with it! It’s crazy. When did we stop being our own top priorities? There seems to be so much pressure these days with what is expected of...
