I'm aware I've been a little quiet on here lately...

Not because I've run out of things to say. As if! πŸ˜€

The last couple of months have been a bit of a whirlwind as I've juggled family commitments and school holidays alongside settling into running A Little Calmer full-time, getting out and about networking, meeting lovely local businesses and, of course, actually doing the work I set out to do, welcoming lovely souls to my A Little Calmer sanctuary in Pevensey Bay, for deep relaxation and permission to pause ✨

Social media has rather fallen off the bottom of the list and, as my least favourite thing to do, are we suprised?!πŸ˜‚

But I'm back and I've got a new 'A Little Calmer Asks...' blog to share πŸ™Œ

Why do my shoulders always hurt?

Tight shoulders, a stiff neck, that feeling that you're permanently carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders and they've somehow ended up around your ears...

Sometimes it's not just about what we're doing physically. Stress, concentration, screens, driving and the general business of modern life can all play a part.

I've been thinking about how often we don't even notice what we're doing until our bodies start complaining.

So, if your shoulders have been trying to tell you something lately, you might want to have a read, and take advantage of a little moment to pause...πŸ’š

Why can't I switch off?

It's one of the questions I hear most often.

Many people assume they need to "do less" to feel calmer, but I wonder if there's another reason.

We spend so much of our lives trying to be everything to everyone: a parent, partner, employee, business owner, friend or carer. Sometimes our minds don't know which role to put down.

In a recent counselling session, I had a realisation that changed how I think about being present. Perhaps peace isn't about escaping life; perhaps it's about allowing ourselves to be just one person for a little while.

It's something I often witness during Reiki and Indian Head Massage sessions. People regularly tell me, "I didn't realise how much I needed that."

Maybe what they're experiencing isn't just relaxation. Maybe it's the rare opportunity to stop juggling every role and simply be.

I explore this idea in my latest blog: Learning to Be Present: What if we're trying to be too many people at once?

Have you ever noticed how many different roles you carry in a single day?

07/08/2026

For years, I thought being present meant trying to empty my mind or stop my thoughts. Recently, I realised something different.

Perhaps being present isn’t about thinking less. Perhaps it’s about trying to be fewer people at once.

When I’m with my son, I try to just be Mum.

When I’m with a client, I try to just be their therapist.

When I’m with my parents, I try to simply be their daughter.

I’ve found that giving myself permission to fully step into each role has helped me feel calmer and more connected.

How many roles do you find yourself stepping into each day and how often are you actually present for that role, rather then simply going through the motions while you prepare for the next one?

If this resonates with you, check out my latest blog: β€˜A Little Calmer Asks...What if we're trying to be too many people at once?’ πŸ€”

Why do I always feel like I'm trying to be ten people at once?

Many of us aren't struggling because life is too busy.

We're struggling because we're trying to be every version of ourselves all at once.

Mother.
Employee.
Partner.
Friend.
Carer.
Business owner.

Perhaps peace isn't about becoming someone different.

Perhaps it's about allowing ourselves to be just one person for a little while.

If this resonates you you might enjoy this month's blog, 'A Little Calmer Asks...What if we're trying to be too many people at once?'. In this edition I explore what happened when I stopped trying to be everything to everyone at once. It's a reflection on mindfulness, presence, work-life balance and the quiet joy that can be found by simply being where you are πŸ’š

July has been a month of growth. 🌿

My second full month of being self-employed has challenged me in ways I hadn't expected.

There have been personal hurdles, moments of overwhelm and days where life has felt determined to test whether I really meant it when I said I was giving everything to building A Little Calmer.

But despite it all...I've kept on showing up.

This month has brought new networking connections, exciting learning opportunities, the launch of my new blog series A Little Calmer Asks, wonderful new clients, returning clients, and some incredibly kind 5⭐ reviews.

I've also had the privilege of saying yes to a new advisory role, returning to supporting people navigating fertility treatment through a project that I am so honoured to be part of and reminding me of why I started this journey in the first place πŸ’š

Every conversation, recommendation, booking and word of encouragement has helped me believe a little more that I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be.

Thank you for being part of the journey 🫢

Here's to whatever August has in store ✨
