Hey There, I'm Michelle!
Like many people, I was living on autopilot, keeping busy doing the things that I thought would bring me happiness – buying houses, going to the gym, driving new cars, running my own business and saving for holidays.
But I found myself completely overwhelmed with trying to keep up with all this and being a mum. I was easily distracted, very reactive and in constant physical pain. I kept even busier to ignore my underlying unhappiness and discontent.
One by one, I lost all of these things – my marriage, home, car, and business. I was on strong painkillers and the only time I felt at peace was when I was asleep. So I drank every night to achieve this state of bliss, which caused more health problems and a never-ending cycle of my happiness being at the whim of anything and everything going on around me and to me.
At 40 years of age, I was left with the choice between a path of antidepressants and surgery... or... finding something that wasn’t just a coping mechanism but prevented me from getting into this state in the first place.
And so I tried meditation. But guess what – I couldn’t stop thinking, couldn’t sit still long enough to count to 10 breaths, and there were so many different meditation apps I felt more overwhelmed! I thought meditation must only be for monks that didn’t have real-life challenges. Sound familiar?
But there was a spark in me that knew that this was going to help me, so I began studying mindfulness and meditation for the next couple of years. It was life-changing. I stopped feeling so overwhelmed, but there were also so many more pleasant side effects. I became physically, mentally and emotionally healthier. The pain went away, I was less reactive, more productive and creative, and above all, I knew I didn’t have to rely on external factors for my happiness – it was always there. It was my choice whether I wanted to be happy or not in any given situation.
I was working in my dream job, taking my kids on holidays, driving a new car, saving for my own home and surrounded by like-minded people I enjoyed spending time with. Then the pandemic struck, and again that was all taken away! But this time, I had the tools and the resilience to know that I would be okay.
Now I am sharing those tools and knowledge in an easy to read, simple and practical format that you can finish in a weekend and experience the benefits immediately.
I want to help other people who are looking for something, other than a coping mechanism, to help them manage the challenges of everyday life, stop being controlled by their thoughts and emotions, and live more peacefully and harmoniously.
Whether you are experiencing work-related stress, feeling overwhelmed with family life, uncertain about retirement, going through a relationship break down or just feel like it’s time for you to start doing something for your mental health, there are simple exercises that can help you stop overthinking everything, process your emotions and stop worrying.
In a world of acceleration, distraction, and movement, it is essential to slow down, pay attention, and be still.
