It's been exactly one year since my book Energy was launched into the world. What started as a collection of thoughts about our most precious resource has grown into a movement of people taking charge of their energy.

Perfectionism is one of the biggest energy thieves!

We delay, overthink, and procrastinate — all in pursuit of the perfect outcome. Meanwhile, our energy gets trapped in endless loops of planning and worrying rather than flowing into creative action.

What are you putting up with that's secretly sapping your energy? 

Tolerations are the things we've gotten used to enduring - the small irritations, inconveniences, and energy leaks that we've accepted as "just how things are." They might seem minor, but collectively, they create a massive energy drain.

Inspiration is fuel for your emotional energy tank!

When I am uninspired, I feel flat. I lose interest in life. When you're inspired, you feel it physically. Your heart races, your eyes widen, your posture straightens. You feel alive, alert, and completely present.

Rituals aren't just traditions - they're energy anchors!

Easter is approaching and whether you celebrate the religious significance or simply enjoy the chocolate eggs, there's something powerful about seasonal rituals that can boost our energy in unexpected ways.

Life isn't about perfect balance - it's about intentional imbalance!

I often get asked to speak about 'work-life balance' - I love pulling apart the dangerous idea that we 'should' maintain perfect balance across all areas of our lives. Work, family, health, spirituality, creativity, relationships - all supposedly deserving equal attention at all times.

As a highly trained people pleaser, it took me years to realise that my energy was more important than other people's convenience!

I had been taught as a child to be small, agreeable, and convenient for others. I bent my schedule, ignored my own needs, and compromised my boundaries - all to avoid being labeled "difficult" or "high-maintenance."

We've all been energetically overdrawn!

Just like financial debt, energy debt happens when we consistently spend more energy than we have. We keep pushing, striving, and doing - ignoring the warning signs until our energy bank account is completely empty.

One of our biggest energy killers is mental clutter. If you are an overthinker, then your mind will be constantly working overtime - planning, worrying, rehearsing, remembering, and analysing. This endless mental chatter drains our energy faster than almost anything else.

Your timing changes everything...

Timing has a massive impact on our energy levels and the outcome of everything we do. I used to waste so much energy doing things at the wrong time!

The workplace can be an energetic drain!

Whether you work in an office or from home, maintaining strong energetic boundaries is essential for staying charged and productive.

Our modern world expects us to operate at full capacity all year round. But nature doesn't work that way, and neither do we! Our energy naturally ebbs and flows with the seasons, just like every other living thing on this planet.

Money is energy. It's a physical manifestation of value exchange, and how we interact with it dramatically impacts our overall energy field.

Being busy is not a badge of honour! So many of us are proud of our packed schedules, wearing our exhaustion like a crown. We forget the magic that happens in unscheduled moments.

Creativity is one of the best things we can use to fuel our energy! Too often I meet people who tell me they're "not creative." They've bought into the myth that creativity belongs only to artists, musicians, and writers.

Do you ever get stuck in your head?

Overthinking and inaction are two of the biggest energy zappers ever! I recently had a family member who was dealing with some big mental health challenges. Watching her sit for hours (sometimes days) in one spot completely stuck was awful. She was completely paralysed and could not think or see any way forward.

This week has been my first week back in the office and it has been a lot!

The transition back to work after the holiday break can feel like energetic whiplash! 

One minute you're floating around in summer bliss, the next you're staring at an overflowing inbox. I'm trying really hard to keep some of my holiday vibe going while working.

Modern life can feel like one long rush between commitments. It can feel more like a blur than a journey. We charge through our days like energetic bulls in a China shop, crashing from one thing to the next. I love creating space and shifts in everyday life with small, intentional rituals.

The start of a new year carries huge energetic potential. It's the perfect time of year to choose and align your energy rather than weigh yourself down with resolutions that feel like energetic burdens.

I've never been a huge fan of New Year's resolutions. They often come from a place of "not enough" - not thin enough, not successful enough, not organized enough. Instead, I prefer to think about energy allocation. Where do I want my life force to flow this year?

The day after Christmas can feel energetically overwhelming! The festivities, the family dynamics, the food, the noise - it all creates an energetic hangover that can leave us feeling scattered and drained. This is where sound becomes our sanctuary.

I love spending boxing day rebalancing my inner peace. While the rest of the world is hitting the sales or recovering from Christmas chaos, it's the perfect time to use sound to reset your energy field.
