"Is fear preventing you from taking action? Acknowledge the fear, watch it, take your attention into it, be fully present with it. Doing so cuts the link between the fear and your thinking." - Eckhart Tolle

Self-compassion is not self-indulgence. Finding the version of yourself that has wisdom, strength and commitment, and living a life that transcends suffering is not easy or lazy. Self-compassion asks for self-discipline and grants courage. Be well!

I have generated a word cloud of menopause symptoms based on a large survey of nearly 6,000 women we did recently - the larger words are the more common symptoms.
Notice how many of the most common symptoms are related to the brain!
I am really looking forward to this event. Psychedelic assisted therapy is really showing its way, keen to learn more.🙌🏻🍄🟫🍄 – at Scotland, United Kingdom

Three tips to be happier at work:
1️⃣ Pay as much attention to your time outside of work, as you do to your time in work
2️⃣ You are not your thoughts.
3️⃣ Take the first step, the step you don't want to take.
