OFF STAGE with Lisa O'Neill

When you feel wobbly, eat, sleep, and write. Eating, sleeping, and writing are probably three of my biggest priorities every day.

If it's your first day back at work, be nice to yourself, be lovely. Just float around. Give yourself some space.

The beautiful chaos of farewelling my mother-in-law, celebrating my last year of school parenting, and setting intentions for 2025.

What's been the highlight of your year? Who's been the person of your year? What's been the best thing? What do you not want? What are you not taking into next year with you?

The 9th to the 15th of December is what I call The Before Before. This is the week to get organised before the real Christmas rush hits. This week is full of hope.

What are you not providing for yourself? What is the thing that you need that you've been avoiding? Find out what you need and go get it done. 

Exciting trip to Fiji, reflecting on a busy year and the chaotic energy of the holiday season.

Everything you see is not as it seems. Everything you look at doesn’t show you the chaos behind it. Don't worry about the chaos.

In this episode, I had a conversation with one of my favorite energy experts, Karla Brodie, who is an experienced yoga teacher and expert in rest and embodiment practices. We explored the importance of rest as a learned skill, challenging the notion that rest is lazy while discussing practical ways to incorporate restorative practices into daily life. Karla shared her knowledge from 30 years of teaching and working with different groups, including people with chronic illnesses and cancer.

The last week of November has to be dedicated to the Christmas planning because once December starts, you're fucked.
