A new day – life in motion

Posted on 26. Jan, 2010 by Susan Wright.

I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders since receiving a plan to manage my toddler’s health issue.  It has taken more than a year, and certainly many failed attempts, to get a treatment plan for my son’s chronic skin irritation. Today really is a new day as that constant source [...]

Life skills start early on the big yellow bus

I’m tough sometimes; other times, I give in, or lose it. Yesterday was one of those mornings when I lost it. For the first time ever I walked along a busy street with tears streaming in full view of those passing by.  It was one of those moments as a working mother that I felt [...]

Step into choice

What are you choosing to do this year? The other night I had an opportunity to get really clear on my goals and subsequent activities to accomplish this year.  This is something I’m comfortable doing and enjoy; however, this thought occurred to me today – what if those goals and activities don’t provide the meaning [...]

Finding rhythm in the new year

I haven’t quite got my rhythm back yet, I’m really scrambling to find it after the holidays. In a progressive attempt to find rhythm I began with my basement – yes, the dreaded basement with its boxes and layers of things once used, never used, and stored for another season or event.  Interestingly, this was [...]

Once in a blue moon

What will happen once in blue moon? It’s rather intriguing that we may be able to answer this on the dawn of 2010.  The possibilities are endless: a new baby will be born, a first kiss, a moonlit walk, momentary peace between fighting troops, a shooting star, an unexpected phone call, a proposal…
According to a [...]

December 2009
Dear Friends and Clients:
In the early hours of the morning, my four-and-a-half-year-old son climbed into my bed and whispered quietly that he hopes Santa brings him a Batman car. I was both delighted and surprised by his excitement. As for all the previous years, Christmas was an event that he struggled to pronounce and [...]

What’s your mindset?

Do you vacillate between extremes? Do you go full out with high expectations and burn out after a day? Do you achieve very little, giving in to the mood of the day? Do you find yourself immobilized by rigid demands? These are just a few of the questions that speak to a condition I call: [...]

Just keep going with no attachment

“Just keep going with no attachment.” These were the words of encouragement I was given today, as my coach and I concluded our call. (Yes, coaches have coaches.)  In recent days I have had to deal with my own guilt around a family issue and this guilt was not brought on by anybody else but [...]

Finding focus within our environment

Funnily enough while starting my work with three young children today, I’m inspired to write about focus. Life sure does have a wicked sense of humour sometimes. One of my children is far too young to stay entertained by videos and television (yes I admit that’s the babysitter for now). He leisurely walks from one activity [...]

Starting new

It feels odd to write “starting new” when it’s December 1st and the last month of the year. For me, it’s something I have to do consciously everyday to achieve the results I want; and more so, to stay in the  process of change, no matter how uncomfortable. Just yesterday I told a friend that [...]
