Don’t Hold Your Ujjayi Breath!
One of the things I've never talked about here on the blog is my big passion for Yoga. I cannot think why but I am now going to put that straight and address this area of my life in greater detail. When I was younger, I regarded Yoga as being the preserve of hippies....
Knowing When It’s ‘OK’ Not To Know
Something occurred to me recently that really helped me to understand the defensive behaviour around homework that we were seeing from the Tween. And that is whether we tell our children often enough that 'it's ok not to know'? That it's not wrong or shameful. In...
Give Frizz the Schnizz with The Aquis Hair Towel
I am a woman of hair. Big hair. I have been blessed or perhaps possessed by having very thick hair. It is wavy but not curly, yet curly when it should be straight. The devils own combination. Both curly and straight are not good when faced with moisture. It's...
