This one's for my Mum and her sisters, my aunties. I love you all so much. The theme of 2019 has definitely been ups and downs. I've had months full of happy memories and positivity and other months that have been huge struggles.

I've also included the link to a mindfulness meditation video which helped me heaps.) And I mention it because even more recently I discovered just how practicing mindfulness can help.

This year was for being daring, right? I put an offer down on a flat with Dave, we got it, I handed in my notice at work, two weeks later we've got the keys and I'm moving to Watford! I'm moving into a new flat, in a new town and I'm going to be living … Continue reading To New Beginnings
