Why Your Mind Keeps Sending You Anxious Thoughts
Video: Why Your Mind Keeps Sending You Anxious Thoughts Most people know how social media algorithms work. Click on one video about anxiety, and suddenly your entire feed is full of them. Your mind is not that different. The more attention you give anxious thoughts, the more your mind assumes they are important. It keeps sending more of them your way. No wonder it can start to feel endless. But what most people have never been told is this: You do not have to engage with ever

You Weren’t Born Anxious: Why Worry Isn’t Your Personality
Video: You Weren’t Born Anxious: Why Worry Isn’t Your Personality Most people who struggle with anxiety believe it is simply part of who they are. They describe themselves as someone who has always worried. Someone cautious. Someone whose mind never switches off. But if you look closely, something interesting appears. You were not born worrying about your job, your relationships, or your future. When we are young, the mind simply starts finding things to worry about. First it

Not Every Problem Needs Solving
Some problems in life are real and practical — things like finding a new job, ending a relationship, or saving money for a holiday. You’ll know when those are solved because there’s a clear outcome. But many of the things we call “problems” aren’t actually problems at all — they’re thoughts about ourselves, our worth, or what other people think. And those can’t be fixed by more thinking, because they only exist in thought. In this short video, I share two simple questions tha

You’re Not Broken. My Dog Knows What You Forgot.
Video You Are Not Broken Somewhere along the way, many of us picked up the idea that we’re not enough. That we need fixing. That our worth is something to earn or prove. We live in a world obsessed with self-improvement—but what if the constant need to fix yourself is the problem? In this short, powerful video, I use a simple example—my dog Ash—to remind us of what we’ve forgotten: your worth isn’t based on how you feel, what you’ve been through, or how well you’re doing at

The Turning Point That Changed How I Relate to Emotions
There was a time in my life when I believed it was my job to manage my emotions. To make sure I only felt the good ones. To avoid or fix the uncomfortable ones. To stay on top of every shift in mood, always analysing and adjusting. It was exhausting and it didn't work. The turning point came when I stopped trying to control my emotional state—and just observed it instead. What I noticed changed everything. My emotions were already flowing on their own. I didn’t need to man

This One Thought Causes All Suffering

This simple yet powerful belief can manifest in many forms, such as ‘Why me?’ or ‘This isn't fair’, creating a cycle of resistance and pain. I explore how life's events are simply happening and our mind constantly narrates about them. But what if the real issue isn't the thought itself, but our belief in it?
