Emails are like autumn leaves

May 06, 2015 by Phoebe Maroulis in Change, Essence, mental health

Like the oak tree there is tremendous value in allowing all my emails to shed and to pause in the moment before allowing the new ones to come through.

The heart knows

May 04, 2015 by Phoebe Maroulis in Change, self awareness, mental health

It is becoming clearer to me that growth is more about what you don't do, than what you do. I am realising that there is a clear path that is easy to navigate if we listen closely to our heart but for most of us we listen to our head, clinging anxiously to the knowledge our head acquires along the way.

The only way to grow, as told by The Snail

February 23, 2015 by Phoebe Maroulis in Change, Choice, Potential, resilience

Where are you being a snail in your life, dragging around the old and familiar?  Anxious not to pop out in case you get hurt, in case someone sees you, in case you actually do find something better on the other side and then don't know how to let go......too risky?

Beyond the wildest imaginings sits a butterfly

February 05, 2015 by Phoebe Maroulis in Change, self awareness, Essence

I wonder about butterflies....often.  So much about the transformation from grub to thing of remarkable beauty, fascinates me.  Is it because I can relate to the journey?

The Mush Before the Butterfly

January 24, 2015 by Phoebe Maroulis in Change, Potential, self awareness, mental health

Is a period in a human life where the day to day feels far from comfortable, the equivalent of the stage when the caterpillar in the chrysalis turns to mush, and shortly afterwards emerges, in an array of colour and pattern to paint the world with magic?

The answer I came up with is, yes, I very much suspect so, and so thank you Universe for the rough patch.
