In places like Tibet and Bhutan, I can’t help admiring the simplicity of their lifestyles. How their faith keeps them strong, and their outlook on life allows them to find peace, happiness and acceptance.

There isn’t a person on this planet who hasn’t had a bad day. Some have bad weeks and some fight every day to wade through depression, anxiety and emotional pain.

Last week, I was met with incredible rage from a stranger, which left me quite shaken. After I had calmed myself down, I found myself thinking more about how this human being had reached such a level of anger. What was going on their life, to lose control like that? 

When we go through our toughest times, we can sit and wonder if we will ever feel better, happy again. 
But tragedy and suffering can bring us the wisest of lessons. In my own life, I have had many curve balls thrown at me. Some have been so hard for a while they have knocked me off my feet and I have had to really fight to get back up. 

Deep within is all is a place of peace. At times it is very hard to find that place. Our day to day lives and the distractions within them, prevent us from taking a moment to reach into that quiet place. 

I love this. I think the owner of this van, wants to make the world a better place. The point about worrying is that we do it before something has actually happened. When and if the moment of impact comes, we don’t worry we either fight or fly. 

Unfortunately we cant all sit on a beach and meditate like this every day. But can take ourselves off in our mind to a beach in meditation for a moment or two. 7.5 million U.K. workers suffer from mental health problems in the workplace, and sadly 44% do not tell their employers. 

I have been working in London for last few days. It’s such a beautiful city and so full of vibrancy and culture. 
I also love the anonymity of a large city, living in a small town can feel as if you living in a goldfish bowl. 

Life can be tough; and sometimes we have to face things we would rather not.  Ancient Hermetic wisdom said that life was like a pendulum, swinging backwards and forwards.
