Here you will find conversations on topics that matter; nutrition, stress, sleep, relationships, movement and my favourite topic, habits.
Welcome to my blog
My room is a place where you will learn to build better relationships, change habits and get rid of anxiety. So much of how we manage our lives is based on habits. Habits of thought turn into habits of action and behaviour. Chances are you came to my site because you...
I Start to Spiral
I hear the following often: ' and then I start to spiral'. In summary, women are telling me that they find themselves in a helpless and uncontrollable position. They tell me their mind takes over and thus so do their behaviours. The behaviours that follow are not...
You Can’t Talk Your Spouse out of an Addiction
If your partner is struggling with drug abuse, normally just talking to him or her isn't enough. I see it over and over that partners seem to live on 'hope' for so long before finally being able to draw a line in the sand. Normally separation unfolds. Whether or not...

Discovering the root cause of a physical or mental dis-ease is always the first step.
From there on we look forward, we don’t stay fixed on the past. For example, in the applied science of engineering, we use knowledge to design, analyze, and construct for practical purposes. When the titanic sank to the bottom of the sea, the engineers didn’t sit...
How Competitiveness Sucks Joy From Relationships
When we think about the word competitive or describe someone as competitive in nature, I doubt that the first thing you think of is how this can be a red flag in regards to relationships. However, it is quite common for me to have couples coming to see me with...
When Your Partner Craves a Substance More Than He Craves You
