They come into our outdoor area to eat my dogs biscuits, Rosie barks and chases them. So the Magpies fly onto the fence just out of her reach and laugh at her . iChat to the Magpies hoping to make them my friends, so they wont swoop in nesting season. #magpies #morningcall #mindful

16.01.2022 Anxiety has reared its ugly head again. So Ive been trying to find ways to use up that nervous energy and quiet my mind. Today it was hedge pruning. #anxietyrelief #anxietygardening . . #gardening #anxiety #outside #quietmymind #mindfulness

16.01.2022 Ive been feeling depressed during this cold, windy, rainy winter weather So when the sun came out I walked around my garden to soak up its warming rays. Just like this broccoli plant I thrive on sunshine, water and nutrients. Ive been watching @abctv Catalyst programs series on #Guthealth and how eating the right foods feed our #microbiome. Its amazing research that has found a link between our #guthealth and our #mentalhealth Im starting my own research proje...ct on me......Im going to feeds my guts good foods and see if it helps my mental health. Anyone want to join me? #feedingmyguts . . . Im off to buy some #kimchi and #keffir #selfresearch #scienceexperiment #mediterraneandiet #fermentedfoods #probiotics #prebiotics #straightandcurly

15.01.2022 Mothers Day - a bliss ball a delightful handmade gift of deliciousness from my boys. A simple coffee in bed and handmade cards and chocolates was perfect for my Mothers Day. . . .... But I find Mothers Day a bit hard as I have a fractured and fractious relationship with my own mother. Perhaps this bliss ball is a visual analogy - a tough brown ball of possible shit, dressed up with colourful hundreds and thousands on the outside to look good. That pretence of a smiling happy relationship with love and acceptance, when really it bites hard and is conditional on meeting expectations. This is my raw ball! Heres my love and hugs to everyone who is feeling a bit shit today because of tough maternal relationships #anxiety #toughrelationships #mothersdayishard #blissballs thanks for sharing your truth @stylingcurvy See more

15.01.2022 Catching up with dear friends whilst in Perth has filled my cup The sun shone and our conversation flowed.

I cuddled babies, chased kids, viewed new homes and chatted all things family life.

09.01.2022 Twisted little carrots Today things didn't go to plan for me I'm trying to grow from the experience. So my twisted little carrots that I grew are reminding me that sometimes growth is not linear, it can take a twisted path. And perhaps you need to be replanted into soil that is better prepared for you to grow longer and bigger! . . .... . #growth #mindful #homegrown #veggies #veggietales #mentalhealth #positivevibes See more

08.01.2022 Pemberton in the Southern Forests is like a trip back in time. Quaint cottages but other for timber mill workers. A Californian Redwood Sequoia planted 90 years ago is incredibly tall!
