In this video I'm exploring the challenging topic of grief and dealing with / talking about death. I recently attended a Creative Therapies conference in which there was a lecture with a hospice poet and a Death Cafe where people could discuss openly and freely their own mortality and the fear of losing loved ones.

Benefits to slowing down can be feeling more in the present moment, having more empathy for our loved ones and the wider world.

In this video I dig into how making meditation part of your daily routine can have many positive effects on your life. I look specifically around the visualisation of diving deep and accessing the vast reservoirs of inner peace we all have under the choppy surface of daily life.
