The art of letting go - part 2
This is the part 2 to my forgiveness Vlog and I hope this section really helps.
In human nature it is very easy to attach yourself to people and habits. We have all experienced pain and sometimes it may linger for a while which makes letting go difficult even though we know that it may be harming us.This causes major problems for us as we keep harbouring pain in our heart, it causes us to constantly relive and torment ourselves with the pain that others may have caused us. This leads to us building characteristics that may not be a true reflection of who we are as we show bitterness, anger, hate and negativity due to this. We need to be able to forgive in order to move on and to live happier lives. Forgiveness may not change the situation, it may not change how you feel about them but it changes how you allow the situation to affect you. It can allow the bitterness to that person disappear which is vital to help you move on, for our own personal well being and even your health.
The first step we can take in this process is acknowledgment.
To recognise that a particular area of your life is not bringing you joy is key. This may be quite difficult as it means you may need to revise your past and open up your heart to situations you may have pushed down.
For example whether its your relationship that has stopped bringing you joy, or the friends you keep are impacting you negatively, or you are causing damage to yourself. You need to maybe take a second to reevaluate these things that you are not happy with and taking the steps of wanting to let go for yourself. Often we are scared of letting go as we do not want to feel the absence of that person or thing and sometimes we get so accustomed to that routine, as we believe it is a necessity in our lives
After acknowledging that you want to let go of a certain situation you need to focus on the present and stop looking into the past. Find the joy in your life now and allow forgiveness to come into your heart. I found that prayer worked best for me, when I prayed out a prayer of forgiveness you feel a release within yourself which contributes to how you used to feel and allows you to have peace about these things.
Lots of love

“Cutaneous”
Happy Belated International Women's Day :)
The word cutaneous is an adjective which describes anything relating towards or affecting skin. In honour of International Women’s day i wanted to touch on this issue. As i know that it is a subject in which us ladies can suffer from severely ( and also some guys too!) First of all I just wanted to start off with saying there is no set way or principles in becoming skin confident. I feel like a lot of people say that theres a set way of getting over it and I feel like it kind of undermines how much of an issue it can be for people. A lot of the time we apologise for “not looking our best’ when we may be in our natural state , this is something I still struggle with daily. We all have parts of ourselves which we may not like and that is normal, however at the same time it makes us who who we are, it makes us different and it makes us beautiful.
I can use myself as an example of somebody who used to struggle with the concept of fully emerging in embracing my skin. I used to have a lot of hyper pigmentation growing up. This is where parts of your skin become darker than the normal surrounding colour, mine was around my forehead and is still on my eyelids. This was something that made me feel really self conscious and felt like I had to explain myself to others so it wouldn’t pointed out. How I overcame this was that I literarily stopped caring because I realised the big things that I notice about myself, are the things nobody else even sees. So i stopped caring and accepted myself, how I felt about it. This encouraged me to actually feel more comfortable in my own skin more and even feel confident when I am not wearing makeup.
Some days you may be spotty, with dark under eyes but the way you look does not define you! Marks, acne, or eczema on your skin are temporary and can always be worked.
How you are perceived becomes less important when you focus on how YOU may want others to perceive you as.
I hope everyone reading this realises how beautiful they actually are and will start today on the journey to appreciate their skin.
Love always

Attracting Positivity
Hi guys,
So for my first post I wanted to start with the topic of positivity since this is what the foundation of this blog space is based on and thats how I want people to feel after visiting the website. Also after touching on it briefly on twitter about how I am able to keep positive, the feedback encouraged me to go into it a bit more detail. SO in life we make many choices and God has given us free will for us to do so, however today i want you to make POSITIVITY a conscious choice in your life today. The key to attracting positivity is starting with gratitude. I have found that there is a secret key to being thankful which activates appreciation leading to a certain peace sat within our hearts. The emotions that have been activated during the process of gratitude are ones such as love, peace, joy, and containment. Finding something to be grateful in all situations leads to a change in thought processes, leading towards positivity.
Dips in the roller coaster ?
We can all testify that this may be more difficult when going through tough personal issues, and being human it is only natural to feel emotional. However what many of are not aware of is that we all have the power to take control of our emotions and be able to accept what you are going through and choosing to be positive. Learning to find contentment even when its not where you want to be but to appreciate where you are is a major key when you may be facing challenges in life. We all have so many things to be grateful for even when things may not be going well such as the gift of life, catching the bus on time or whatever. Choosing to focus on these things will increase the positive vibes in your life and gradually allow you to focus less on the negative aspects which would increase your happiness levels.
" A joyful heart is good medicine but a crushed spirit dries up the bones" - Proverbs 17:22
Today choose not to isolate yourself, choosing to get our of a bad mood, choosing to hang around with people who make you happy
I really hope this helped
