What is a lie? Is it sometimes a matter of perspective and opinion or more than that? What about the lies we tell ourselves and communicate to others?

What does acceptance and surrender mean to you? Does it sound like being ok with an awful situation, or accepting abuse and poor treatment? Acceptance, in my mind, means surrendering to the current facts of a situation. Instead of fighting, pulling away, being in denial or rejecting the current state of reality… just acknowledge it. […]
An area of mental health which in my opinion, is largely ignored or not sufficiently recognized is the connection between mental wellbeing, diet and nutrition. I’m not exactly sure why there is this disconnect, but it’s definitely there. We are not trained in any experience I’ve ever had to help clients with making sure they […]

We live in a world where for many they find their connection through social media and digital devices. We spend so much time on screens […]
