March 7th, 2025 – Take control of your time & energy – and watch everything change
Time and energy management is often seen as a productivity tool, but in reality, it’s one of the most powerful forms of self-care. Managing your time effectively isn’t just about getting more done – it directly impacts your wellbeing, stress levels, and overall quality of life. In my work, I’ve seen firsthand how poor time and energy management creates a vicious cycle: the more stressed and overwhelmed people feel, the more reactive they become, and out of control they feel, constantly firefighting and chasing their tails. The irony is that this state of chaos makes it even harder to break free and take control.… Continue reading

A Breathing Technique to Reset Your State
One of the fastest ways to shift out of reactivity and back into a calm, proactive state is through your breath. When stress kicks in, the nervous system moves into fight-or-flight – but conscious breathing can quickly reverse that. A simple technique like box breathing (inhale for 4, hold for 4, exhale for 4, hold for 4) can calm the mind and reset your focus in just a few minutes. It’s important to inhale through the nose, as this helps activate the parasympathetic nervous system – your body’s ‘rest and digest’ mode – while the exhale can be through the nose or mouth.
I also recommend apps like Breathwrk or Othership, which offer guided breathing exercises to help you shift your state throughout the day – whether you need to ground, energise, or refocus.
