Is Your Heart Really IN What You’re Doing?


also posted in Jane's Blog

Have you ever done something and your heart wasn’ t really in it? Yes of course you have, even if you can’ t think of what it is right now. I was considering this a couple of days ago when I was looking at my diary for next week.

This is the week that Philip will start his chemo treatment and instead of just assuming I was going to go with him to the hospital (which involves sitting tied to a drip for 9 hours and an overnight stay), I gave myself the opportunity to find out if I really wanted to go or not.

Depending on your point of view, this idea that I could NOT go might be [read more]

5 Essential Tips for Dealing with Shocks and Uncertainty

It’ s funny, isn’ t it, how the human race behaves as if it knows what is going to be happening from minute to minute. Most of us do this, most of the time. It is understandable of course, as there is a certain rhythm to life in that the sun rises and sets, the trees lose their leaves and then they grow again, and the sea continues to roll onto the shores of the beach, wave after wave. There are variations of course, in that sometimes we don’ t see the sun for the clouds, the leaves may fall earlier or later, and the waves may be bigger or smaller. But on the whole, there is some sense of [read more]

In my first book Choose Your Thoughts, Change Your Life, I wrote
in the introduction about using an affirmation that said “Today I
receive a letter from Paul’. I was in India, having set off with a friend
from London on a journey to find an old boyfriend. I knew he was

a daily trip to the Post Office to see if he had written to me.

Every day that I was there I was disappointed; for over five weeks,
no letter arrived. Well, it’s [read more]

Cancer. The very word can cause fear and constriction. Despite many people learning to live successfully with cancer, it is still thought of as a merciless killer in many respects. What has this got to do with your business? Well, nothing, at least nothing to do with your business I hope.

But it’ s a lot to do with mine, because my husband has just been diagnosed with stomach cancer. Fortunately caught relatively early, and it’ s treatable, but still, a very serious life threatening illness. Talk about an opportunity to think rich! (Ironic laugh from me here).

Needless to say when we first heard this news, thinking rich didn’ t come into it. Shock was the prevalent feeling, for [read more]

21 Inspiring, Practical Ways to Use Affirmations and Have Them Really Work for You

‘Every thought you think or speak is an affirmation” says Louise L. Hay, founder of Hay House Publishing company and author or the famous ‘You Can Heal Your Life’.

Every thought. That’s quite something. And it’s true – so either you are thinking a negative affirmation, a positive one or a neutral one. If an affirmation is something you say or think, as if it were true, regardless of whether it really is true or not, then what you say or think is really important. Sometimes you’ll hear people say ‘I don’t have enough… (time/money/love/peace/balance, you choose to fill in the blanks) and then justify the reasons why they don’t have enough.
