Dear Reader,

This week we’ve been looking at what it really means to care for our own wellbeing, not only at home, but also in the places where stress often shows up most strongly, like the workplace.

This Week’s Focus: Personal Wellbeing

Stress is all around us, and many of us will feel it more at this time of year as schools return, the holiday season ends, and we begin to realise that autumn is approaching as the nights start drawing in. So, this week, we’ve been focusing on ways that we can alleviate stress at home and at work, and also find ways to reconnect to our true selves – that non-physical Higher Self which knows that everything will be OK.

A gift of peace and calm

To support you in both home and work life, I’ve created our very first guided meditation video. We hinted at it last week, but I’ve finished it now, and it’s free for you to view on YouTube.

It only takes 14 minutes to listen to, so try it today to release stress and reconnect with your inner peace.

This Week’s Reflection

Remember, our wellbeing isn’t just something we practise when life is quiet. It’s the thread that helps us weave balance into the everyday moments. You are in control of that, no one else. It may feel like someone else is pulling the strings at times, but in reality, you have the power over your own life. And giving yourself a little self-love and self-care is the key to stepping back into your own power.

​

Cheeky call to action…

If you enjoy the meditation, please subscribe to our YouTube channel and share it with someone who might need a moment of calm. And if you’d like to support the work we do at The Creative Choice, you can now help and be the first to Buy Me a Coffee on our new account there. And all who know me will know how I love my coffee! Hopefully, we will be able to add more videos soon, so watch this space.

Also this week – Quote reflections

Sometimes the simplest reminder carries the deepest truth. Meditation helps you reconnect to yourself. When the rest of the world is clamouring for your attention, give yourself a break and focus inwardly. I promise you will not be disappointed.

That’s all for now. If you are returning to school or work this week, I wish you well. Every day is a new chapter and a chance to reinvent yourself anew.

The question is, who are you going to become?

Please do pass this on to anyone who may need to hear this message too.
