I love that we get to experience all seasons in the UK, despite my complaining about being cold and the fact that I have often talked about how much I hate Autumn. I also love a theme, which new seasons allow a change in. In an effort to stop hating 25% of the year, I have been learning to embrace…
Over the course of the last few years, I have stopped feeling comfortable using too many chemicals on my skin, and while I am not going to overhaul everything at once and throw out all of my products, I have been switching my favourites to natural alternatives when I run out.

It involves noticing the beauty around you in the everyday, seemingly mundane, moments. When you view your life in this way, you focus on positive…
I don’t know about you, but I find it so difficult to motivate myself in Winter, especially to get outside! I definitely feel that lack of sunshine and warmth, and the idea of packing on the layers just to go for a walk, when I could just get into pyjamas is no tough debate to me. The pjs win! Don’t…
