On this glorious bank holiday Monday I hope that you are in a position to enjoy the weather and find some time to unwind and relax. Women’s mini marathon
I am running the VHI Women’s Mini Marathon today for the seventh year in a row. I’ll be joining the thousands of women who have decided to do something good for themselves and at the same time raise money for charity. It is indeed a win-win situation.
Motivation often comes from focusing on rewards. The reward system in your mind is very strong but it can need help at times to be channeled positively. I believe in living in the present moment but also in setting clear, attainable goals that focus the mind and allow us to reach our full positive potential.
As summer is now well and truly in full swing, why not think about something that you wish to achieve this summer? It doesn’t have to be anything huge, any change that genuinely rewards you is significant. Our minds are activated by reward and this can be used to both our advantage and our detriment. The reward from becoming fitter, making healthier choices, brushing up on a language, reading more books or spending more time with positive people is a reward worth pursuing.
To help you define what goals you wish to pursue, think back to times in your life when you felt fulfilled and were achieving. Ask yourself what things were you doing then that you are not doing anymore? Find one goal that makes you feel good just by thinking about it and imagine/visualise how amazing you will feel when you have achieved it. I’ve been doing this for seven years now with the Mini Marathon and it clearly activates something in my mind that keeps me focused on training and raising money for my chosen charity.
Here’s to all the ladies taking part today!

The course is a synthesis of the work that I do and help people to let go of stress, anxiety, to make healthy choices and to reach their full potential. Summer is a great time to embrace positivity and the course is only six weeks long.
The programme is designed to empower the user to develop the habit of positivity on both a conscious and subconscious level. The reading, exercises and videos work on a conscious level and the MP3s work on a subconscious level and reinforce the main idea of each week.

I would also really appreciate it if you would spread the word with family and friends who might benefit from this programme. It could be the very thing that they need this summer.
It’s quite a tricky question to answer are the best of times but try a Tuesday morning when you are just awake and you are pre-occuupied with preparing the school lunch and getting ready for the working day ahead! This was the question my eight year old son asked me last Tuesday wide-eyed and innocent. I think he believed that there was an age that you are required to make a will in much the same way as when you are 18 you are legally allowed to vote.
It may sound like a negative question but the innocence of childhood allows one to see death in a different light. Children can be very matter-of-fact about “delicate” issues that adults often try to skirt around. I believe we have a lot to learn from children on so many levels as they often have the ability to clearly see things as they are.
The cycle of life is quite simple, we are born, we live and then we die. The freedom of being comfortable with our own mortality allows us to really live, to engage fully with life. Ironically, many of us search for certainty in areas of life where this cannot be provided. By contrast, death is a certainty and once this is accepted and embraced with courage and love it gives us the freedom to live.
Have a good week and enjoy each and every precious moment by being fully “awake” to all life offers you.

Having treated hundreds of patients from around Ireland, Fiona has now developed a first-of-its-kind course that allows people to hypnotise themselves into healthier lifestyles…The six-week program includes tutorial videos, simple exercises and corresponding self-hypnosis MP3s which work on a subconscious level.
Fiona explains that the method is based on cutting edge neuroscientific research that demonstrates that the brain can be trained through the power of imagination and thought; it is flexible and malleable. This concept is called neuroplasticity.
