Stress comes in all sorts of packages.

At the time of writing this, Winter is almost upon us again and it’s starting to get cold.
Although I’m not a big fan of the cold I can easily protect myself from it with clothes or setting fire to something!
But it’s the dull weather which really gets me down maybe its a touch of SAD (seasonally affected disorder) or maybe not.
I know I like bright a lot better than I like dull!Read more on Curing my own addiction….

I thought I’d share with you a little of the exciting journey we’ve just been on making our first DVD.

Several meetings followed during which we learnt a lot about the filming process and what we could and couldn’t do – a remake of gladiator or a james bond style stunt were out then.Read more on Making of the DVD…

I had to appear as a witness in a court case today, scary experience. What if I said the wrong thing? What if I couldn’t answer a question?
As the time approached my mouth got drier, my hands began to shake….. I knew I had to calm down.
I sat up straight on my chair in the waiting room and, ignoring those around me, I began to do the energy builder. Slowly, very slowly. My heart gradually stopped pounding, my hands no longer shook.
By the time I was called the energy builder had done it’s work. I walked in, took my place and all was well.
