23.01.2022 Was thinking about all the ‘secret diets’ that humans all around the world will be starting in approximately four days time, and wanted to share a little excerp...t from an article I wrote a year ago for Sunday Life. Just a reminder I guess that if your head is going to ‘2021 Goals’ with secret-weight-related-goals-even-though-you-are-trying-to-love-yourself-at-every-size, be kind. You haven’t done anything ‘wrong’. It makes perfect sense for our human brains to long for agency or control around the size of our bodies, particularly in a world like this, particularly after a year like this. No shame in that. But what if we just went ahead - today - and gave ourselves permission to show up IN FULL, regardless of our size or our weight on the scale? You may not feel this right now but so many people need and benefit from that special sparkle that only you can bring. Let us see you. Let us know you. Right here right now as you are, you are more powerful and beautiful than you know. Step into your boldness, my beauties. Or... don’t! That’s okay too! We have options. We are not stuck. Our stories matter. CB xo
20.01.2022 How are you going? 2020 has been a tough ride, hasn’t it. I can certainly relate to this photo on a personal level. As the world at large and our own communities try to keep up with the challenges of the pandemic, we are having to continually make adjustments and find some normality. We are constantly living with a heightened sense of fear and our bodies and minds are on high alert. Our brains are completely overloaded with information. There hasn’t been a lot of great news t...o lift us up. For many there hasn’t been much joyous and fun connection with others that’s so important for our mental health. And we are tired. Just tired. . Other than getting good sleep when you can, what else can you do? . 1. Be kind to yourself - you don’t have to have it all together. Nobody really does, despite how it might appear. 2. Allow time to do things that bring you joy. Whatever that is - do it! 3. Take a media holiday. Turn off the news. Stay informed but don’t get caught up in all the ‘bad’ news. 4. Try to eat healthfully and move your body. Don’t beat yourself up when you don’t (remember point 1), but these things can have a positive impact on your mental health. 5.Reach out! Let someone know if you are struggling. If it’s too hard to have that conversation with people you’re close to, seek out a professional. Having someone objective to talk to can really put things in perspective. . Please know you are not alone and there is always someone who can help . Mandy
15.01.2022 So it’s taken a month, but I’ve finally picked my word for this year. FUN! I’ve realised that even though I enjoy many aspects of my work, over the past couple of years I haven’t allowed enough time for doing other fun stuff. I’ve filled my days with tasks, and during tough times (like last year ) this kept me going, or at least at some level I felt if I just kept doing things, just kept moving, things would be OK. I didn’t have time to fall in a heap - I had things to do! A...nd I was one of the lucky ones - I still had paid work and I live in a relatively safe place pandemic wise. But there was soooooo much sadness very close to me personally that took its toll, and very little opportunity to get together with people or get away to do fun things. Things were heavy, really heavy. The energy was incredibly draining. There just wasn’t much fun. . This year I’ve actually timetabled in days/times for FUN! Any kind of fun - from the frivolous/ridiculous to just the things that really bring me joy. I’m taking more time out. My mind, body and spirit have been screaming at me to do this - finally I’m listening. I want to smile more and laugh more. I want feel light and move with a spring in my step. I want to find my sense of humour (which somehow got lost last year) and spread joy. This year I plan to find beautiful by having lots more FUN - yay! Who’s with me? . Mandy See more
12.01.2022 Happy day! It’s so wonderful to have people who love us and show us that they do, but it’s even better if we love ourselves and show ourselves that we do . #valentinesday2021 #loveyourself #spreadlove

05.01.2022 Yes, Anne Lamott, the culture lies. And sometimes our pants do too! This is well worth a read
03.01.2022 Something for all you amazing goddesses to reflect on under this full moon energy. Here lies exposed the standards, expectations, perceptions and beliefs that we as women might encounter and somehow have to make sense of and navigate through in our lives. So crazy! So many double standards and confusing messages. Some of these we have control over, some we don’t. Some are messages that keep us ‘buying’ into certain beauty standard that makes others a lot of money. Some are ba...sed on serious societal issues we need to continue addressing as a collective. How have these things impacted you, your choices in life, and your understanding of yourself? What expectations/imposed beliefs are still holding you back or affecting your choices? Who might you be if you could just be you on your terms? This is the perfect year to let go of what no longer serves you. Lean into that, breathe in the energy of expansion, breathe out the stagnant energy of old beliefs. Only you can change the way you live. Big love to you all, Mandy
02.01.2022 Hair goals! I started my #dyefree journey last February. I’m going cold turkey, and have long hair, so it will be a slow process! I’d been thinking about doing this for some time. I felt my dyed colour no longer suited my skin tone and I was sick of having to colour it so often. (In dark hair, the grey regrowth starts showing very quickly.) I hated putting all those chemicals on my skin. I’d also seen some amazing women on Instagram who were growing out their dye and was so i...nspired! So I finally started the journey to silver, my path to finding beautiful in my natural hair colour, to look (as my wise younger sister said) ‘the way I’m meant to look.’ The biggest unknown was what my natural colour actually is, as I’d been dyeing it since my late twenties when I started getting not just random greys, but a weird grey stripe through my hair. Well I’m still discovering that, but I love my natural colour so far! I can’t wait for the dye to grow out, and wish I could speed up the process. Thanks to @silverbeauty.michelle for this reflection on why we dye our hair and I’d be thrilled if my hair ends up looking as stunning as yours Mandy #repost When I started seeing my silver strands at age 20, I was so upset. I was too young to have grey. I thought it was very uncommon. Not so. From being on here, I found out many of us started greying much earlier, some as early as 11 years old. * * Because of our youth abscessed culture, there are estimates that say 75% of American women dye their hair. If it wasn’t so prevalent in our culture, we’d see so many more women with a silver crown, that we wouldn’t even consider it being a societal taboo. We can thank Eugene Schueller of L’Oreal for creating the first synthetic hair dye. And ever since then, this patriarchal invention has had us bowing and chained to the bottle of dye. * * No more. Grey is just another color of hair. And it is gorgeous! And we are changing that narrative here. It’s an exciting time, silver sisters! Embrace it.
02.01.2022 You are doing beautifully
01.01.2022 I was taught early in life that hard work was everything. I come from hard working people who valued hard work above anything. Work hard, do more, produce more, achieve more, work harder, work more. This was apparently the way to get what you want (or what others think you should want ). I still work hard, but these days I understand that I can be just as productive by working less. I know how important it is to have balance in life, and how much this can contribute to wor...king effectively, creatively, intuitively and happily! And as women, we also need to be aware that our behaviour patterns are much more cyclical, with natural ebb and flow. Tuning into this can be soooo beneficial. Of course I sometimes slip back into old habits (yep, did that last year quite a bit). But my soul soon screams at me that it needs more downtime, more peace, more time in nature, more fun and laughter, more rest, more exercise, more juicy goodness. What are you doing this year to find balance? Mandy (Sorry - don’t know who to credit this image to. How good is it! ) #balance #beingproductive #hardwork
