Did you know that TWO WOMEN are killed each week due to domestic violence?

Due to my son's research on nutrition, and his Nutrition Plans for people
experiencing depression leading to self harm, i have also discovered why the
doctor told me that my cholesterol level had increased! I'm eating more eggs
these days to help with low blood sugar, and hence the increase in
cholesterol. Hhhhmmm! More on the Nutrition Plans later

My son has discovered the connection between diet/nutrition, depression and
self harm. Brilliant! More on this later!

Just couple more days before my Psychology of Self Harm & Behaviour Course
in Birmingham.

My Psychology of Self Harm & Behaviour Course is just one week away.
Finalizing a few logistical preparations. Watch out for our next Open

Having a new broadband provider today - looking for an easy transition

God grant me the serenity to accept the things that I cannot change, the
courage to change the things that I can, and the wisdom to see and know the
difference.

The key to success is NOT to do what others do and say; it is to KNOW you

Not so much in favour of the vandalism but definitely in favour of students

Just sent off a very slight amendment to the proof for my 'self harm and
pregnancy' article with Midwives.

Just been told that my article on 'self harm and pregnancy' will be run as
the cover feature of 'Midwives' magazine later this month. Looking forward
to seeing it and will let you know when it is published! Feeling good!

Some parents on my Easy Tiger Parents Programme mistakenly think that
TEENAGERS don't want to be shown love! MISTAKE!! Who doesn't want to be
loved? Or shown love? We all do, don't we? How we receive it is what makes
the difference, isn't it? Yes our teens definitely want to be shown love.
Even just a physical connection from us such as pat on our teen's head,
knee, elbow etc is enough for them to know that we care. So go on - show
your teen some love!

A parent on one of my Easy Tiger Parents Programme asked me if I thought
decorating her home would help her to lift her spirits. I left that thought
with her and looking forward to hearing her answer tomorrow at the next
session. I took couple days off last week painting with my son and I feel
absolutely fantastic, energized and uplifted! Feel great looking at what
we've achieved together

Shame Radio show with Voice America didn't meet my expectations. Now looking

Anyone help with this? I am looking to change my home phone number but my
existing provider tells me that they are not able to change phone numbers
and have referred me to their main competitors - who I'm not a great fan of.
If I change just my line rental which would give me a new number, my
existing provider says that they wont be able to provide broadband. Hhmm?!
Anyone recommend a really good, reliable phone/broadband supplier?

My editorial is in the Primary Care Today newspaper/journal this coming week

Had a great chilled out few days this week with my son! Feel refreshed and

"Let's not confuse hasty decisions with strength or intelligence. It's
important to be decisive - after giving consideration that reflects the time
you have and what's at stake." Bill Blackman

When one door closes another one opens! About 3 weeks ago I gave notice to
my Aerobics instructor that I would not be returning to the classes. It was
a particular aerobics programme combined with weight loss (we are weighed
every week), which is just what I needed, however, due to my hypoglyceamic
condition, I have to eat often. As you can image, due to eating often I have
and continue to gain weight, hence leaving the aerobics programme because I
felt that I was setting myself up to fail. That said, the following week I
discovered that my local leisure centre was starting a circuit training
programme on the same evening that I used to do aerobics. I signed up
straight away! So I'm still keeping fit and healthy but without the stress
of and focus on whether I've lost weight or not. I have an upcoming hospital
appointment next month to find out the extent of my condition. This concept
of one door closing and another opening is just a simple example in my life
currently.

What do you need to let go of in order that you can move forward? An
argument? A relationship? A job? Certain friends? Change will only happen
when you create space for the new thing to come into your life. When is NOW
the right time for you to let go!? Have an inspirational filled week and
thoughts!

On one of my Easy Tiger Parents programmes, many of the parents are
extremely anxious for one reason or another. I normally do my own relaxation
or meditation as part of the programme, with this particular group I feel I
need a little extra help - one of my relaxation CDs. My intention is to
liberate them so that they leave the programme leaving calm, enabled, ready,
willing to take more risks, bonded with their children and generally
LIBERATED!

It's half term in Birmingham and the West Midlands this week. If you have
children, how are you spending your time together? My son and I did some
painting on Sunday and will spend another day tomorrow. I am very impressed
with his painting skills given that he's only ever painted his bedroom walls
before. He was as proud as punch and felt that he had a 'productive' day.
Brilliant!

Writing my proposal today for my Radio Show. If all goes well, we go live

Will look at spec for a new Radio Talk Show online that I have been
approached by Voice America to host. If the spec is right, then the show

I've got some really anxious parents on one of my new Easy Tiger Parents'
Programmes! I normally do my own relaxing and meditation exercises as part
of the programme with parents, however with this particular group of
parents, I think some extra help is needed - one of relaxation CDs as well.
The calmer they are, the more they'll be able to absorb and make the most of
the tools and solutions from the programme. Looking forward to it!

Full of beans and energy these days, now that I am able to get back to my
exercises after my mini op. Feeling great! This is a great testimony for
anyone feeling low in energy or lethargic - start exercising and notice the
difference it makes in your energy levels and mindset.

Oh well, start of another new Easy Tiger Parents Programme next week -
yeahhhhh :-)

Finished another great Easy Tiger Parents Programme yesterday. I always have
mixed feelings at the end of a programme. Happy that the parents have grown
so much; are in a different space and place emotionally; are different
parents; have risen to the challenges I have thrown at them; and leave the
programme walking 10ft tall. Add I'm sad to see them go!

"Sow an act, and you reap a habit; sow a habit, and you reap a character;

Final session of one of my Easy Tiger Parents Programmes tomorrow. Can't
wait to see how the parents have grown since last week! A brand new
programme starts next week too and looking forward to that!

Even more breakthroughs today on my Easy Tiger Parents Programme with
parents letting go of fears which have held them captive for years. Parents
left the session walking 10ft tall. Love it when that happens!

Parents on my Easy Tiger Parents Programme now understand where their lack

children get the best from them as parents and not repeat the same patterns.

I'm increasingly being asked to attend child protection case conference
meetings or to provide reports for Social Workers because of the work I do
with parents as part of my Easy Tiger Parents SystemT. This is something
that I am not prepared to do as it jeopardizes my work with parents and my
ability to remain impartial and independent so that the parents get the best
of me and from my programmes. As a professional, I am obliged to report any
child protection issues that I may come across as part of my work. I
wouldn't hesitate to do that as ultimately I want the best for all children!
And parents are aware that this is standard practice; child protection case
conferences - NO!

Success with my car insurance! Remember I told you that I have sold my car

wanting me to pay for the insurance premium for the rest of the year? Well I
contacted Financial Services Authority (FSA) who regulates insurance and
finance industries � they told me how to put in a complaint and the contact
details for the relevant insurance company. I followed through and only have
to pay the cancellation fee, less than �40! I�m happy :-)

Regarding the subject of selling my car - I rang my car insurance company to
tell them the news and to cancel my policy given that I don't have a car at
the moment. They told me that I still had to pay the car insurance for the
rest of the year until the next renewal date!? Can anyone shed any light on
this? My understanding was that I only pay for the insurance/months that I
have used. Comments?

Sold my car privately yesterday for the first time by myself! Normally sell
