OFF STAGE with Lisa O'Neill

A really freeing way to look at your energy is just to play a game of could. There's so many possibilities. Think about what you could change and see how that makes you feel.

Happy first week back for me and maybe for you. What's happening in your week? What are you doing? What is your focus? Go out there and have an amazing day.

Pottering and pondering is what I've been doing. I think that is the greatest thing you can do right now, to start pondering what's possible. Start pottering, get a journal, start pondering what you want and what is your year going to look like.

I've learnt over the years that when you're in the hectic times, you've just got to slow all the way down.  This is the time of year we're going to need a lot of kindness.

"If you're exhausted about your heart's obsession with the fixed past and your mind's focus on an uncertain future, your lungs are the perfect place for you." 

I love this line from John Roedel's poem, My Brain and Heart Divorced. It's just divine.

There's always a bit of organisation in my world, but I think this is the week. It's the week to get things done. 

For today's Standing Observation, we're revisiting an old episode about the stories we all got, shit that happened to us and people did to us. These stories are like boxes. We need to process our stories and move forward without carrying these boxes.

I reckon we're disconnected from ourselves. I think we've just lost who we are because we're so busy. I think being connected to yourself comes from space. I love just sitting down and thinking about what's going on, what my focuses are, what I need to do, what I have to do and what I want to do.

Transforming yourself is a lovely opportunity and you might need a tablespoon of courage or bravery. This is the year of transformation. Have a think about what you'd like to transform. How could you be braver? 

How much of a luxury is it to have the first week of December, just to think about what you want to create, be, do and have in 2026? That's what I'll be doing. I'm literally off the grid and just 100% focused on repotted. We plant dreams, we pull out weeds, and we grow the next stage of our lives.
