Babblelogue: Write it down!
http://soulnumber8.blogspot.com/2010/03/write-it-down.html
Wednesday, 10 March 2010. One of the things that is really helpful through the menstrual cycle, and indeed for any other health related issue that needs careful scrutiny, is to keep a journal of symptoms, thoughts, feelings and experiences. Within the space of a few months this gives a clear insight into what to expect at different points in the month, and how your body "behaves" throughout the cycle. Journalling works in this way for me in all areas of my life. It helps keep me sane! So if you're at the...

Babblelogue: On second thoughts.....
http://soulnumber8.blogspot.com/2010/03/on-second-thoughts.html
Tuesday, 9 March 2010. Ooh, on reflection, yesterday's blog felt a little bit personal. Who wants to read about my monthly cycle? The voice in my head demanded to know this morning. "What do you think you're doing - better to just keep it to yourself." it went on. This is due in part to our personal lack of self-confidence, which may in itself come from a lack of understanding about ourselves. It may also be due to the cultural aversion we have to making u-turns, not seeing things through, not being ...

Babblelogue: May 2009
http://soulnumber8.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Monday, 4 May 2009. Fire Jugglers, Faerie Queen, Fiddle, Drum and Song. Chasing Bubbles and Dreamy Poems from the Pod. Maypole ribbons entwined,. And danced again undone. Trees, grass, lovely Lawn. Coming to life with the Dawn. Windmills on the horizon,. Townsfolk foregoing their lie-in. For the sake of music and words. The pen is mightier they say,. Except when the sword yields rainbows for play. Bringing to Swindon the light. Of creativity, joy and laughter. Meeting friends and making new,.

Babblelogue: Sussed it!
http://soulnumber8.blogspot.com/2010/03/sussed-it.html
Wednesday, 17 March 2010. Day 25 of my cycle. Already there have been flashes of anger, high emotion and libido. (Not that I'm complaining about. And as the week forges on I'm aware of heightened irritations. Why doesn't my daughter go to bed when she's told, get up when she's told, eat her dinner, have a wash? Occasionally there's a rising sense of panic and confusion in my head as lots of things want to get done at once - but I don't seem to have the energy nor the mental capacity to do any of them.

Babblelogue: August 2009
http://soulnumber8.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 25 August 2009. Today is the 400th anniversary of Galileo's telescope, which is a very fitting date as today I find myself reflecting on a truly star-studded summer holiday. It is hard to believe that the kids are going back to school next week - so soon! And we've only got a few more days to complete room makeovers, new shoe purchases and to ensure that all the new uniform fits! While the kids stayed in Someset, hubby and I hopped over to Dublin for some star-stalking. We stayed for a coupl...

Sarah Louise, in the pink: November 2008
http://sarahlouisegetshealthy.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 10, 2008. Today's plunging estrogen isn't all bad. Anecdotal evidence shows that when this hormone descends, it helps boost your creative thinking! So if you have a problem you need to solve, it'll be easier to find an imaginative solution. If you have a gift to give, you'll find it easier to make one by hand. And if you have a blog entry to write, you'll find it easier to wow readers with your colorful tales! The first post will be a bit from an email I wrote to a friend today.

Babblelogue: Riding the hormonal wave
http://soulnumber8.blogspot.com/2010/03/riding-hormonal-wave.html
Monday, 8 March 2010. Riding the hormonal wave. Here at Stillpoint we are getting excited about our first "Being a Woman" retreat weekend in September, dedicated to helping women become more aware of their monthly cycles. We are wanting to work with women to embrace rather than resist the fluctuations we experience every 28 or so days - and to discover what riches of learning and self-awareness lie that way. The next few blog entries are going to be about what I'm noticing as I go through the month - my ...

Aunt Ruby's Blog: July 2012
http://aunt-ruby.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 31, 2012. Errand Queen vs Chocolate Channel Surfer. I specifically remember a phone call I had with my sister about 10 years ago, when she asked me what I was “on”. At the time I laughed & thought “I’m not ‘on’ anything…I’m just this awesome! 8221;, she had good reason to inquire about the possibility of chemical interference. I mean, I can’t imagine getting all this stuff done in one day, but I sure did. I can actually think of lots of days like this. Can’t you? I’ll tell you. Today, IR...

Babblelogue: November 2009
http://soulnumber8.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Monday, 9 November 2009. I've been preparing some handout notes for the journaling workshop during our reenergise weekend, and in the process I've been revisiting some of my own journals from the last couple of years. At the start of 2007 I took a step back from the relentless promotion of my coaching business. It was beginning to exhaust me, and I began to feel my self-confidence flag. The clarity I had in the opening months of 2007 is marvellously captured in my journal from that time. Since then I...

Babblelogue: January 2010
http://soulnumber8.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 19 January 2010. Life-sentence for one mistake. What would it feel like to be forced to change your career, be prevented from working with the people you choose, in the job you love and are skilled at, all because, during a time when you weren't at your best due to illness, you made a mistake? Of course when cases like Baby P hit the headlines we are all sickened and are desperate to see more stringent measures against child abuse. Remorselessly abusive individuals must be prevented from hav...
