Uncovering Your 2022

Still unsure what to focus on in 2022? Lots of ideas about what you COULD do this year? Or maybe it all feels like a big confused ball of uncertainty.

Here is share about my approach to help you uncover what matters most to you.

Pride and self-esteem

Here in the northern hemisphere, we are midway between Summer Solstice and Autumn Equinox. A time known as Lammas or Lughnasadh.

A time of plenty when fruits and vegetables are swelling.

To mark this time, I invite you to create a quiet space for yourself this weekend and journal with the following questions

What to expect in August

I wrote yesterday about my self-created August Fest.

But what does that mean for the Daily Flourish emails?

August Fest🏕

It’s nearly time to kick back, take a breather, play, camp and generally be outdoors as much as possible.

My very own August Fest!😆😆😆

But with a few days to go before I close my laptop, the pull to…

Dreams get you started

It’s Olympics time!🥇

Full moon wins

It’s a full moon in the early hours of tomorrow, Saturday, morning.

Full moons are a time to celebrate wins.🙌

Note to self 💖

Wise words this morning from E.E. Cummings🙏🏼

A great summer break

The school holidays have started: six weeks stretch ahead.

I was away this weekend with girlfriends: outdoor swims, lying under the shade of an enormous tree beside a river with bright blue damsel flies darting about, and meals eaten outside.

A perfect few days😍AND

True to ourselves

If the soil in the garden isn’t strong and fertile, then it takes a lot of work and energy to ‘make’ plants thrive.

There are also plants which are just not suited to certain soils: you may get them to bloom, but they need specific conditions to truly flourish.

So in life.
