As an amazing course in Psychosynthesis Leadership

As an amazing course in Psychosynthesis Leadership coaching drew to a close today, it made me think about the value of an intentional ending. I have grown so much through taking this journey with such a wonderful group of people, and although I am sad to know that part of our journey has ended, I am so excited to see what we all do in the world and how we continue to support each other.

So today I learned the power of ending things with whole-hearted presence and intentionality. Do you feel that you still have unresolved endings or loose threads from your past? Or perhaps there is an ending you would like to complete but have not yet felt able to? It is great to remember that drawing things to a close or a completion at the right time can be the most loving and responsible thing to do for everyone involved. So here's to beautiful endings and the beginnings they make possible.

As the year draws to a close, I highly recommend taking some time out to reflect on your year gone by. There’s a guide to doing your own personal annual review on my blog (link in bio). I hope you find it as helpful as I did, and you are having a peaceful and relaxing holiday (and stay tuned for news on a course for achieving your New Years resolutions) 🙌🎄♥️ #annualreview #personalannualreview #newyearsresolution #newyearsresolutions #selfhelp #selfhelpbooks #selfdevelopment #coaching #leadership #leadershipcoaching

I enjoyed contributing to this piece by @frostfree

I enjoyed contributing to this piece by @frostfreelance on alternative places to buy books on @shareable_gram , if you don't just want to support the one company. As a writer I value local bookshops and have spent many happy hours in them, both as a child and an adult.

I do go through quite a lot of books so I do use cheaper sites as well, but I always make sure to buy at least some of my books from bookshops or companies that support them, because I want them to be around in a few years' time. The company I mention in this article is @bookshop_org, which supports local book shops (there is a UK version also @bookshop_org_uk.

For myself I have spotted several book-shaped parcels in my Christmas present pile so I am excited! I hope you have all the books you want in your life. 📖✨❤️🎄🙌

Well, we're sprinting to the end of the year and hopefully looking ahead to a much brighter one! A few years ago I started the powerful practice of doing a personal annual review as a year draws to a close, but I realised that the standard format was not going to cut it this year.

So in this post I take you through a great personal review for 2020 (link in bio). It has been a year like no other and I think we owe it to ourselves to acknowledge what we have dealt with, how we've been strong and what we've gained through hardship. Sometimes it can be very powerful to simply acknowledge what has happened and our feelings around that.

I really enjoyed doing this review as I worked through it (testing out all the steps). I found out some things I did not expect, gained a lot of perspective and also a sense of peace. I hope that I can carry a lot of what I've learned into the new year and the rest of my future, to help make life easier and the good moments sweeter.

If you do your own review, I hope you get a lot out of it and let me know how you get on!! 🙌✨📖✍️♥️

I have finally got around to posting another book

I have finally got around to posting another book review (link in bio)! This time, I look at The Black Flamingo by Dean Atta, a book that will give you either an insight or a reflection of what it means to grow up feeling like you don't belong and having to work to find your identity. This coming of age tale is warm, honest and heartfelt and left me feeling like the gooey centre of a melt-in-the-middle pudding (can you tell I'm writing this at dinner time??).

It also coincided with black history month which has been a fascinating learning curve for me - a curve that shouldn't exist, but does. I've really enjoyed watching Lenny Henry's Race Through Comedy show on TV - although there are some parts that are hard to stomach. But it is clear that comedy can be so healing and is something we really need right now. Getting back to the book review, I think reading The Black Flamingo may also be healing for you if you've been involved in a lot of activism or are feeling tired by the times, because the tone is gentle and heart-centred and may be a bit of a healing balm for a world-weary soul. 🦩 🦩 🦩 💓

I was temporarily captivated by the prettiness of the sun’s reflection in a pond. It’s not night time in any of these, just changed the brightness so you can see how much the sun looked like a moon. Slowing down this much is the ultimate indulgence even more than a bloke in a tuxedo jumping out of a helicopter and swimming across the sea to bring me a box of Milk Tray. 💚 🌿 🌗 #nature #naturephotography #moonunderwater #relax

I was happy to help out with some information for this great article for @Sparkpeople on mind-body health alongside some knowledgeable experts.

Although we all know working out is great for us, there are some other really important tools that we can use to give ourselves a boost, and they can all be done for free if you're on a budget but you can also find a great teacher/ coach if you want a more personalised approach.

It's never been more important to take care of ourselves well, even just for a few minutes a day I highly recommend trying one or more of these out (link in bio).

Dropped into the @colombosport today to say hi to some great therapists and gym staff. If you need some acupuncture or Craniosacral near Southwark/ Waterloo I really recommend @moving.qi and @expressionofhealth .

It was great to see everyone looking so well.

I really enjoyed contributing to this article for

I really enjoyed contributing to this article for Glasscubes on communicating clearly with clients. Making a good impression is so important in many spheres of life but especially where you are looking to build rapport and trust.
I have to say I've noticed a decline in etiquette over the years (and although I cannot disclose anything specific I have been emailed) this year's winner was a badly-spelled question in the subject line followed by a completely blank email. Of course, I did not reply and the sender is not someone I would consider working with. I'm sure you have your own examples of terrible communication efforts!
It is the work of a moment to lose people's confidence and it just takes a minute or two to make sure we are being clear and respectful, while also representing ourselves well. No communication is exclusively an exchange of cold hard data, it is an opportunity to build better relationships. 🤝 📧 📞 💙 #communication #communicationskills #communicationiskey #relationship #business #professional #respect #love

I enjoyed watching a kestrel (I think?) surfing on the very strong winds over the weekend, I was so impressed with her/his agility! I got teased for having birdwatcher tendencies but I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that 😄! 🌊 🦅 🔭🤓 #bird #birdsofinstagram #birdwatching #twitcher #wildlife #nature #naturephotography #naturelovers

If you have noticed that you often find fault with others and want to stop, check out this article I contributed to with @upjourney. It's natural to make judgements to a certain extent - on the good side that's just being discerning, but there is definitely a point at which it is not helpful.

Rather than comparing ourselves to others or thinking we know how they should be living, it is healthy to mainly keep our eyes on the prize and look to the future. That may be easier said than done in today's divided world! But moderate, thoughtful people are needed now more than ever. Hope you are doing great and being kind to yourself and others.

Another day another blanket fort! I’ve been recording audio for a book trailer today and looking forward to sharing it with you soon.

I’m also very excited to start my Psychosynthesis Leadership Coaching training course tomorrow with the Psychosynthesis Coaching Ltd team. I have no idea what to expect but I’m keen to learn some great tools I can use with my clients as well as furthering my own self development work. 💖 🙌 🌍 #audio #booktrailer #bookstagram #authorsofinstagram #artofcominghome #suzannewylde #psychosynthesis #psychosynthesiscoaching #psychosynthesiscoachtraining 🌳

I just wanted to share a little preview of the drawing process for my new picture book Perfect. It’s been slow going but really satisfying seeing it all come together and this is one of the last drawings for the book, where all the characters come together accepting themselves and each other.

randomly, as I was finishing this picture an advert for Marc Jacobs Perfect perfume came up on the TV which was playing in the background, I feel like the message of being enough as we are it’s really important right now. I hope that’s something you’re feeling 🙌👍💓 #perfect #enough #perfectlyimperfect #iamenough #iamperfect #childrensbooks #childrensbookstagram #kidsbooks #bookstagram #marcjacobs #marcjacobsperfect #love

If you love self-development you might be interest

If you love self-development you might be interested in my latest book review (link in bio) of Rising Strong. This is a book by shame and vulnerability researcher Brené Brown, if you are not familiar with her work I do recommend also watching her TED talk, or Netflix special and maybe reading The Gifts of Imperfection or Daring Greatly first. But equally, if failing and dusting yourself off and getting up again is on your mind right now then Rising Strong could be the perfect place to start.

This sentence from Rising Strong jumped out at me today: "Every reckoning starts with giving yourself permission to engage with emotion". It sounds so simple doesn't it, but how often do we try to tone down or dismiss our feelings when they interfere with our plans or expectations - being with how we really feel can almost be a revolutionary act sometimes.

I really enjoyed reading this book and I hope you enjoy my short review! 🙌📖💕
