Stilling the mind can be a difficult thing to do. It likes to be busy and talk all of the time and as a result it resists your efforts to still it. The world through social media gives us so much information, but also mixed messages. Learn in this episode what meditation really is and how to quieten the mind through techniques and tools that can help

Manifesting is a term that’s being talked about more and more, the idea that we can bring into life the things we want by imagining and believing they can, whilst thinking positively. However, we also need to remember that we don’t have to think positively all of the time, we can allow ourselves to feel what we need to feel. To be human. In this episode learn what the idea of manifesting is, and how to do it in a way that helps you rather than putting pressure on yourself with the idea that you need to be somewhere different, with tips on how to change your thoughts so that you can bring in better feelings and better things.

This feeling happens to all of us, when we’re burning the candle at both ends and we’re doing too much both in the physical world and the world of our mind. When we’re focused too much on the outside and not enough on ourselves and our own needs. In this episode I talk through the feelings of burn out and overwhelm and how we can get through it by slowing down and by practicing self care. If we go more lightly through day to life we will make it easier and more enjoyable with more energy to do the things we want to do!

You are not your label! That’s the core message of this episode. When we’re given a word to define our struggles, or when we attach that word to ourselves, we can start to identify with that as who we are every day, and discredit normal human experiences, feelings and emotions. Words and labels can be helpful to give us understanding but they can also strip our power if we let them. Take your power back. You are not your label, you are a beautiful human experiencing human life and feelings. You are allowed to feel all of the human feelings you have

In this episode we remember that most of our fears are illusions; a trick of the mind. And because of that fear we have built a comfort zone around our life so that it’s predictable.

Learn how to take the first step with The Island Method and take back your life without fear holding you back.

Most of us are walking through life thinking and feeling that we aren’t good enough, so focused on body image because that’s what the worlds taught us to do, but this is far from true.
