If your brain is simply trying to protect you and keep you safe, why would you want to go against that? Well, because we live in a very different world to the one when this part of our brain was developed. That means it can overreact and hold our progress back. Yes, we still need to exercise some caution because stepping too far beyond our comfort zones can result in us freaking out and our comfort zone’s shrinking further.

But if you want to make any kind of progress, you have to step outside of it and stretching that comfort zone comes with a myriad of benefits too. Here’s our top three.

Who doesn’t want more happiness in their life? But let’s be clear, we’re not talking about life smelling of roses all the time – that’s simply unrealistic. However, if you read last month’s blog post you will perhaps now have a better idea of the sorts of things you can do to experience more happiness. In today’s blog post, we’re looking at other ways you can give your happiness levels a boost.

1. The Perfect Day Exercise

In the last blog post, we encouraged you to do the perfect day exercise – but what now? Well, while some of what you wrote might be out of reach for now, there will be...

Are you pursuing happiness? Do you have a sneaky suspicion that you’re seeking it in the wrong places or things? In this month’s newsletter we looked at what can throw us off track. We discussed how society today often encourages us to value and pursue things that do nothing to improve our happiness levels. If that’s the case, then how can you discover what truly brings you happiness? We’re sharing our top three suggestions to help you get going.

1. Recalling Happy Memories

One of the easiest ways to identify what really brings you happiness is to think about your happy memories – the mo...

Have you ever wanted to be bolder? Have you found yourself admiring others who seem to really go after what they want or who don’t have any trouble speaking their mind and wished you had their guts? Well, that’s exactly what this blog post is going to help you with today. Earlier this month we explored the things that can leave us feeling less courageous and why being bolder can be important. Now, it’s time to reveal how you can push through the fear and have more courage.

1. Recognise And Question The Fear

At the beginning of this month, we explained that being courageous doesn’t mean ...

If being courageous means you still feel the fear, is it worth it? Wouldn’t life just be more comfortable to stay as you are? Not exactly. Yes, being bolder does mean that you’re going to experience fear more often. However, the benefits far outweigh this temporary discomfort. In this month’s newsletter we explored what might make us less courageous and in this blog post, we’re exploring three major benefits of doing something about that.

1.Allows You To Experience More Of Life

When we allow our fears to dictate what we do, we keep ourselves small. In fact, we shrink ourselves. Showing m...

While showing gratitude now and again might give you a quick boost in mood, it will only be temporary unless you make it a daily habit. It’s also one of those things that can be much easier to do when you’re on a high and having a great day. However, it’s on the more difficult days that it’s really needed. Today, we’re covering three different ways that you can practise gratitude and make it a part of your routine.

1. Keep A Gratitude Diary Or Journal

If you're someone who likes to write down your thoughts, then a gratitude diary or journal could be the right move for you. You don't need...

Ever noticed how it can be, getting started on something that can be the hardest step? Our thoughts tend to build things up until they're much bigger than reality. It doesn't matter if it's a new way of exercising, doing something in your business, or a milestone with your child such as potty training.

The same is true for practising gratitude. Getting going can be the hardest step. The most significant barrier is recognising what to be grateful for. But once you realise how much we tend to take for granted, you can soon find thousands of blessings to count. 

Today, we’re giving you a helpin...

When you build your resilience, you’re able to cope with more of what life throws at you. Not only that, but you can also find yourself thriving when faced with a challenge. In the last blog post, we looked at the kind of things that can reduce your resilience. In this one, we’re covering what you can do to build it back up again.

1. Learn To Relax

I know – this sounds like a joke. As a mum or mumpreneur, relaxation is a distant memory. It might be something that you don’t expect to have in your life again for many years to come. However, relaxation is still possible even when you’re a par...
