OTHER PEOPLE'S STRESS...isn't yours to carry
Whether you're at home or work, visiting with friends or catching up with family, the start of the year can stir up old emotions and leave us feeling a little off-kilter. Because New Year's stress doesn't just come from the dark, the weather or even the lack of cash - it's also from the people around us.

HARMONY at home
We spend weeks preparing our homes for Christmas...but does anyone prepare for when it's over? You know the feeling: the decorations have come down, the mince pies have been eaten, but your home doesn't feel like it's supporting you into the new year. I believe this is because our homes hold energetic residue.

MOVING FROM GUILT TO GRACE
How many times a day do you hear yourself saying sorry? ‘Sorry, could I just…?’ ‘Sorry, I can’t make it tonight.’ ‘Sorry, I’m not free.’ We apologise for taking up space, for saying no, for changing our minds, even for wanting something different. Sometimes it just slips out before you’ve even had time to check if it belongs there.

CLEAR THE emotional clutter
Growing up in a London suburb in the 1980s, the reality TV programme Antiques Roadshow heralded the start of every Sunday evening. In a house filled with conflict and chaos, it symbolised the one passion my parents shared — old stuff that could unlock cash. And every time an antiques expert told someone that an old, innocuous item was worth thousands, it justified the burgeoning levels of bric-a-brac in our already-cluttered home.

WHEN JEALOUSY GOES TOO FAR

TOUGH KIDS FOR TOUGH TIMES
As parents and caregivers, it is our instinct to protect our children from harm. When they are very small, we teach them what not to touch, we scoop them up before they fall, we hold their hands when they balance on high walls. The instinct to keep our children from feeling hurt never leaves us, so when they are older and come to us with emotional turmoil, it is only natural that our initial urge is to make the bad thing go away. But what if this reflex is doing more harm than good when it comes to teaching our young people how be become more resilient?
