Sports fans, a paradox
I like sports, nearly all of them. the spectacle of competition and the excitement of it all. I watch major stuff, like the world cup or the Olympics, as most do. I think however that I might have spotted some problems with these events. I have no intention of criticising the sports themselves, instead I… Continue reading

The joy of therapy
I’m in therapy, I’ve got a problem and I’m getting help to solve it. I would recommend this to anyone who asked me, whether they need it or think they don’t. What it is is not what you think. I decided to approach it very open mindedly and without prejudice, I wanted to know more… Continue reading

Being mindful
I once did a meditation in Birmingham at a yoga class, it wasn’t really my thing before that but I enjoyed this one tremendously.

The diary of an unremarkable man
Every now and then I find myself falling victim to an acute case of melancholy. I am, of course as most are, a quite reflective soul, given to assessing my life and summarising it up to this point; trying to find a reason to believe, and maybe we all need to, that I am valid,… Continue reading

I have a theory and it goes a little something like this….. People mostly think that they have an authentic self – this is a challengeable concept though. We can first ask as to where we find this authentic person? Is it in their own head space, the mind self, or is it in reality,… Continue reading
