weekend life coach

 Hi my lovelies! 
Welcome to my blog or, welcome back to my blog.
Today I decided to share something inspiring with you. 

I'm not one to read many books and if I'm to be perfectly honest, I like books more for their smell (please tell me I'm not the only one that enjoys the smell of brand-new books?!) than their contents. That being said, once every now and then I will find an exception to the rule and  come across a book that I truly love and I think is inspiring. 

Today I'd like to tell you about 'Weekend life coach' written by Lynda Field. 

I'm not sure why this book got my attention but I'm glad it did and I consider it the best self-development book I ever read (OKAY, FINE; I never read one before but I can't imagine how any book could be more inspirational 😃).  

I gave myself a goal; I promised myself to read at least 10 pages per day, during my commute to work. Finally, I can proudly say that I finished it and that it survived numerous water spillages in my bag in the process.

'Weekend life coach' is a mixture of humor, inspiration, motivation and mindfulness. It is filled with meaningful quotes, backed up with real life stories of the author's clients (Lynda Field is a psychotherapist). It is full of practical advice and mind-exercises that can be done anywhere. It simply contains guidelines on how to be happy. 

The book is easy to read and everyone can certainly relate to the stories in it. What's more, it covers absolutely every aspect of self-development. It gave me an extra dose of positive energy on the good days and a kick of motivation on the bad days. I would recommend this book to absolutely anyone.

- primavera ♥

''When you go back home''

I am not one to be easily offended. In fact, I think that we've all become very aware. Every joke and every comment we make is carefully curated, positioned in a way that has absolutely no potential to be taken as deragatory by whoever we're speaking to.  Political correctness or not, I love how awake the society has become through all of this. The empathy that emanates from some of us when speaking to someone coming from a minority group, or experiencing difficulties that we will never go through ourselves.  But I can't help feeling hurt when assumptions are made. It bothers me when someone assumes how I feel, who I am or where I seem to belong.  It stings, when someone asks me when I last visited ''home'' after 15 years of being an expat. Because truth to be told, I have no ''home'' in my native country. HERE is my home. Here is where I belong, where a piece of me will stay even if I choose to move somewhere else in the future. The slightes...

Find your inner child, and learn from them

Our level of responsibility increases as we grow older. We change, inside and out, develop new relationships and focus on the future.  Future education, jobs, relationships, maybe buying a house. That's all well and good, we have to keep growing, learning, progressing....that's human nature.  But while we try to find our feet in this new stage of life, let's not forget about the inner child. It's that priceless part of you that is absolutely unique, raw, and selfless.  As per the Oxford Dictionary, the term 'inner child' refers to  ''a person's supposed original or true self, especially when regarded as concealed in adulthood.'' Why connecting with your inner child is important - 2 key benefits: 1. Becoming more curious, motivated, and energized... The inner child and its curiosity, creativity, and zest for life are uncanny. The sad part? We tend to lose a lot of these traits as we grow older.  Reconnecting with the inner child allows for the...

2021

 2021...where do I even start! The last 2 years of my life felt like a shapeless lump of time. I've grown, matured, moved forward in various aspects of life, yet it still feels like I've put a lot of my dreams and plans on the backburner, for obvious reasons. It wasn't all so bad though. This past year I... Picked up new hobbies Got promoted Bought my first car Saw one of my closest friends get married Discovered my inner child Had my 1st anniversary of being vegetarian Travelled for the first time since the pandemic broke out Learned to love my own company and bring myself on solo dates Made new connections Met my cousin's new baby Learned how to control my negative emotions better (mindset is everything.) Discovered new things about myself, who I am, and what I really want from life and personal relationships I'm sure I've had many other happy moments and realizations this past year, but these are the ones that come to mind first. With all that's going on ...
