It’s good to talk

October 13, 2019 by Louise Leave a Comment

One week ago I was out on my first 5k for a while this week I hit the park again. Despite the runners high last week this week has been a rollercoaster of emotions again. One good run is never enough. If you want to keep the pace then you have to take the rough … [Read more…]

Running for my mental health

April 30, 2018 by Louise 3 Comments

I don’t think I ever realised how my mental health was being sustained by my running until last year. Getting injured in January 2017 turned my life upside down. What I hadn’t expected however was my life to crumble as a result. It turned out that the short twenty minute miles I was squeezing in … [Read more…]

Feel like you’re working hard but going nowhere? Maybe it is time to stop, take stock and learn to pace yourself.

When life gets on top of you sometimes you just have to run away from home.

What my daughter teaches me about being a woman

March 10, 2018 by Louise 31 Comments

Today is Mother’s Day and last week it was International Women’s Day. Days when we celebrate the strong women in our lives. Since I became a mother to a daughter I have felt my parental responsibilities more acutely. Not just to her but also her brothers. They will learn from her and me about how … [Read more…]

Turning disappointment into determination

March 8, 2018 by Louise 2 Comments

Let’s talk disappointment. When you are pushing to achieve your goals and working really hard, there is nothing worse than feeling like you are getting nowhere. Not to mention how demoralising it can be when you have made your goals and plans public and you seemingly have nothing to show for it. Oh the shame. … [Read more…]

Food for thought

February 18, 2018 by Louise 1 Comment

Just because it looks easy on instagram it really isn’t. Especially not when the monkeys are about.

Spaghetti head

October 30, 2017 by Louise Leave a Comment

I’m a mess. My brain is like a bowl of spaghetti. A big jumbled tangle of thoughts and feelings all leading nowhere. I would love to separate them all out and straighten them one by one. Observe them and understand them. Then chose to keep or discard them. This is what I thought Mindfulness would … [Read more…]

The badly timed poo

August 12, 2017 by Louise 4 Comments

Take cover. We’ve started potty training number 3! Wonderfully, just as she embarks on her terrible twos with great enthusiasm. Before I became a parent I knew there was going to be poo but no one prepares you for the amount or the length of time the poo dealings continue. You would think that once … [Read more…]

Recovery starts in the brain and the body

August 6, 2017 by Louise Leave a Comment

Have you ever felt like you have fallen to the bottom of your 'To Do List'? Or even fallen off it? I recently realised that, despite what I thought, I was not giving me the time I really deserved. The physical injuries I have sustained over the last few months have been testimony to this … [Read more…]
