Aging Gracefully



Age is a touchy subject and most of us feel uncomfortable about it. I can completely relate to feeling like I haven't accomplished enough for my age. It is important to remind ourselves that there is nothing stopping us from still going after what we want and manifesting our dreams.

Here are some examples of people who accomplished great achievements later on in their lives:

Jk Rowland - 32 
Henry Ford - 45
Bethany Frankel - 35
Grandma Moses - 78 
Julia Child age - 50 
Jane Lynch - 40
Vera Wang - 40
Colonel Sanders - 60
Chris Gardner - 44
Susanne Boyle - 47
Martha Stewart - 40 

Growing older rewards us with the gifts of knowledge, growth, wisdom and a sense of maturity. We can sometimes take these gifts for granted. So if you're not where you want to be in life or you are starting to feel your age, try to remember that it gives you an advantage and if you choose to look at it that way, you can let go of what is holding you back.

There are so many individuals from all walks of life that have refused to let their age stop them. Ageing is a natural process and there is no point dwelling on the past or boxing yourself in because of it. Continue to go for things and pursue your dreams. Life is there to be lived, so give it your all. xxx 

Learn + Development + Grounding Yourself = Maturity

Comforting Ambience

Comforting Ambience Creating an ambience at work and at home can be a simple way to uplift you and invite peace and comfort into your personal space. Having a serene work space is important for your productivity and mental well-being.   Flowers can be a simple and effective addition to creating a calm work environment. They can add colour and aroma to your surroundings and provide an often needed element of nature. If purchasing real flowers seem too costly, you have the option of buying beautiful synthetic replicates that look and feel like fresh flowers. Personally, my favourite tip is to make sure that your work environment is kept clean and tidy. Taking pride in sustaining a presentable work space helps with maintaining mental clarity and is a visual reflection of your professional standards. Creating an ambience at home promotes relaxation, peace, and balance, which in turn gives you a space yourself and others can enjoy...

Pregnancy Loss

I would like to start off by saying that I am so sorry for anyone who has experienced a pregnancy loss. Pregnancy takes you on a journey through different stages month to month and even before seeing your baby, you start to sense and feel changes in your body as it works hard to nurture the babies development.
