Ontology/Epistemology – the light bulb moment!

Mindfulness for Self-Awareness
Today I tried something different. I went for a guided mindfulness walk at the nearby Wetlands led by the lovely Liz Keats. The reason I thought I'd share this with you is that I think mindfulness is intrinsically linked to self awareness. You'll already know that my...
It’s been a rollercoaster!
2019 has brought lots of changes, hence my lack of blog posts since the end of 2018. In January I took redundancy, in March I moved to London and in April I took up my new job in central London Yes. It's been a rollercoaster! But now it's September, which means the...

Please answer the question!
My questionnaire has flown the nest and it's now out there in the big wide world. For a whole month my questionnaire is open to the elements. But will anyone care?! I think I'm developing an obsession with number of questionnaires completed. I'm panicking and I'm...
