Comparison is truly the bloody thief of joy! I, amongst many others, am terrible for this. Only yesterday, I was running further than I have gone in months (rather slowly mind!), and I was beating myself up because other people were overtaking me. Why wasn't I praising myself for running further than usual instead? It got me … Continue reading Boost of the Day

Boost of the Day
Love this quote from the really inspiring Davina McCall's new book 'Lessons I've Learned' - making me very tempted to buy the whole book and she clearly has a lot of wisdom to share! Setting yourself overly high standards is one thing that can be destructive to your wellbeing, expecting other people in your life … Continue reading Boost of the Day
Self-Esteem Boost: Pets!
I saw these two gorgeous ones yesterday and they always will put a big smile on my face and boost my mood. If you cannot have one yourself (like me in my small flat, boohoo!), do know any friends or family with pets? If so, ask to spend some time walking, stroking, playing (or better, … Continue reading Self-Esteem Boost: Pets!

Don't define yourself by the past. Today defines you - so take this opportunity to start again.
Boost of the Day #173: Show them how to love you
Love yourself and you will teach others to do exactly the same. Teach others to treat you with respect and love by showering yourself with care and affection.

Booster Tip #16: Run
I woke up this morning and felt in a pretty low mood. No big, obvious reason - just being on my 'time of the month', my lower back ached, the weather was miserable and I had eaten far too many calories on Easter Sunday! I generally felt 'meh'. A couple of hours on, I feel … Continue reading Booster Tip #16: Run
Boost of the Day #171: Brave
I love it when a Pixar or Disney film has strong, uplifting messages behind it. Brave is one of those films and this quote is a brilliant reminder that we are the managers of our own life. No, you cannot control everything that will happen to you, but you can choose how you react and deal with … Continue reading Boost of the Day #171: Brave
Boost of the Day #170: THIS is what is important.
We worry too much about things that will have little importance in one year from now, one week, one day, even one hour. Consider what is important to you. If anything else is making you feel stressed, it's time to take back control mentally and let go of the little problems in life. Save your … Continue reading Boost of the Day #170: THIS is what is important.
Boost of the Day #168: Integrity
People most appreciate being treated well, with honesty and respect. This is how you build solid, meaningful relationships. This is what makes you as a person.
Boost of the Day #167: Do not fear the falls
It's Friday! Have you managed to make it through the week unscathed? No worries, no stress, no mistakes, no problems? If so, that is amazing and rare so well done! If you've found life difficult at times this week, pick yourself up and look at these moments as just bumps along the road. Life will … Continue reading Boost of the Day #167: Do not fear the falls
