Do you feel like you are always rushing?
Hi Neighbours - If you feel like you are always rushing, that is something
Mindfulness can help with. One of my clients says that rush was her constant state before she started practicing mindfulness.
Mindfulness trains us to paying attention to the present moment, with an attitude of ease rather than self-pressure. This protects us from this constant state of feeling we have to be rushing to the next thing. It helps us manage the racing, repetitive, and non-productive thoughts that lead to stress, and cultivate the state of calm that is the antidote to rushing.
Try noticing what is making you rush – it might be interesting!
I run sessions on the first Tuesday of each month at Meadowbank Community Centre.
The session includes gentle movement and relaxing simple meditation.
The next one is on Tue 5th of September 1 - 2.15pm. Come and see what it is like! Contact me - the first session free, then Koha welcome.

Worst Xmas ever?
There's a a lot of planning that goes into Christmas day and sometimes things just don't go to plan. But it can be a good thing - a family mishap or hilarious memory that you can laugh about in Christmases to come.

Suellen’s sweet Christmas tradition
The festive season is always a great excuse to indulge your sweet tooth, and this time of year poses the perfect opportunity to bring a real showstopper to the Christmas table.
For Suellen’s family, that showstopper is Croquembouche, an impressive tower of cream puffs bound together with spun sugar that is popular at weddings in France and Italy.
What began as a birthday treat at a local French café has become a cherished Christmas tradition for Suellen and her 17-year-old twin granddaughters, Ellie and Sadie. Every year, the trio gather in Suellen’s apartment at William Sanders Village to cook this festive dessert - a holiday highlight they all treasure.
