I thought I’d lost a day then I remembered I don’t I thought I’d lost a day then I remembered I don’t usually go to @dbs_gym_ltd for Wednesday morning class. 

After this morning’s session I’m not sure I will again. 😩

How often do you find yourself realising that you’ How often do you find yourself realising that you’ve gone off track?

Despite your best intentions you’re not doing what you started 

Whether that be being distracted by a text message, email, scrolling or walking into a room to do one thing and ending up doing something else entirely!!! 

Multitasking is so overrated (and outdated)!

You want to be all about the focus and getting shit done 
So you have time to do the stuff you really enjoy. 

Short and consistent meditation practice can help you build your concentration muscle, teach you how to notice you’ve wandered off and bring you back on track. 

Maybe it’s not sexy and there are no magic apps or in app rewards but believe me …. It works!!

Who would you be if sometimes you could admit to y Who would you be if sometimes you could admit to yourself that you weren’t going to cope with everything?

Rather than taking on another thing by pushing down the stress of everything that you’re already dealing with to make space for it on top.

Do you feel scared to let go of the reins in case everything just runs away from you? 

 That everybody else gets to see that you’re not coping - that you’re not perfect!

Not the perfect mother/wife/friend/human and sometimes you suck at your job!

How would it feel if you could still deal with all the things that life throws at you? If you had ways of knowing when sometimes something has to be left as it is?

When you can be okay with just letting some things drift by and not needing to say anything, do anything or have an input on it?

Knowing that you’re comfortable with the answer to the question ‘what would happen if I didn’t do this?’

Being able to create a little distance when it feels as is  things are constantly coming at us  and to make sensible decisions about what we are going to cope with and what we’re going to leave alone or do nothing about right now is a skill that we can learn.

Honestly!

Simple, short, regular meditations can help you build a skill to just watch and notice and do nothing.

To help you be able to see when the dust settles, which are the things that you really need to put your effort into

A passive deconstruction meditation concentration meditation not only helps us learn to let some things just be. It also releases some of the stress that we accumulate in our bodies and helps to see more clearly about what it is that we need to do.

Wasn’t expecting this on the final days of our hol Wasn’t expecting this on the final days of our holiday in Spain.  We were staying very  close to Los Gallardos where the tragic wild fires started last night. 

My thoughts go out to all the lovely staff and locals at our accommodation (who’s own homes and loved ones may have been in danger) and the wonderful team of people who looked after us when we arrived at the sport hall earlier today. 

We are all safe and flying home tomorrow. 

🙏🏻
This was something that felt pretty brave to me - This was something that felt pretty brave to me - and I was proud with how it went and how it was received. 

Isn't it funny how we don't always want to say that out loud. That we are proud of ourselves? 

It's not the public speaking that was the gamble, but the topic and the honesty especially when I did not know how it land with the audience. 

The footage from the event run by the lovely @emilydevanewriter for @moorwords is shared in this post if you would like to hear it. 

It's a bit long to share on here. 

Huge thanks to @harriet_moorcommunication @oldhamjaz and @andreamannwriter for their support
In September Jacqui is running another cohort of h In September Jacqui is running another cohort of her successful Inner Light Meditation course at @feelgoodhub_emma The Feel Good Hub and for the FIRST time at @the_loft_skipton 

Perhaps you’re thinking the last thing you need right now is another thing on your to do list so how on earth is meditation going to help! 

Well what if there were a way to see through fresh eyes and see where you don’t have to be quite so weighed down by the demands of the day? 

If only it were so simple? Well in around 15 minutes you can get a bit calmer, a bit quieter and start to see what you want more (and less) of in life. 

Whether you are new to meditation or refine or refresh practice, this will be a very practical course, everything you learn you can apply in your life right away and and continue to apply it for years to come.

Starting on Tuesday and Wednesday nights in September at 7.30pm and running for 4 weeks - enquire re exact dates 

The investment is £80 and alongside the live sessions you will get a handout on the class, audio recordings of the practice, support and check-ins from Jacqui in-between sessions and the community with the other participants. 

What previous students say 

This course has been a really lovely introduction to meditation in the very special environment of the Feel Good Hub - encouraging but unpressurised, with plenty of resources to take away and use afterwards. I'd recommend Jacqui and the course to anyone wanting to try for meditation for the first time or just needing a bit of structure to motivate them."

“.... the meditation class is really enlightening, a chance for self reflection & progression in a safe, warm & welcoming space...a chance to press the pause button, breathe deeply & take a little time to nurture yourself...thank you xx”

Living from the inside out - a mental stress-detox Living from the inside out - a mental stress-detox 

You don’t need to fix everything - now!. Sometimes it really is alright to let things go by without needing to do anything.

Does even the idea of letting something go bring on even more stressful feelings?

You have the kids to take to school (not forgetting PE kits and the signed permission form for something or other), a full day at work, then back home to cook meals, oversee homework and bedtime and maybe an episode of your current box set before you collapse into bed and start all over again. 

You simply want to feel you can drop some things and that the wheels wouldn’t come off. It’s hard to imagine what it’s like to not keep planning or fixing the lives of your nearest and dearest. 

When life feels like a never ending to do list you might love the idea of finding some quiet time but what on earth do you stop doing to make space? 

Getting stressed isn’t a bad thing, it’s staying stressed that causes the trouble. 

Join Jacqui for this Free one hour talk about how to gain greater focus on where we need to place our energy, where we don’t always need to react to everything that is happening around us and how we can let go of the stress we hold on to rather than allow it to accumulate any further.

I’m at The Loft on Tuesday 14th July at 7.30pm AND at The Feel Good Hub on Wednesday 15th July at 7.30pm - DM me to sign up
