🍹 "There comes a point when drinking like there’s no tomorrow stops being young and idealistic and starts heading towards a far darker place.” 🍹 Today on the blog I wanted to share my experience with alcohol culture and why I made the decision to cut it out of my life completely for a year (after being very “low alcohol” for years before that) Like it or not, alcohol plays a huge part of our society and today I decided to unpick my relationship to it in a very honest way. I talk about my memories of alcohol as a child, how drinking found it’s way into my social circles, the influence from uk culture at the time, all the way into how it made me completely miserable while I was at university! Read the full post over at my blog (link in bio) It is a slightly longer one but there is simply just so much to say and it’s a topic I find really interesting. Grab yourself a fancy beverage (non-alcholic or alcoholic, you choose) and give it a read!

How's your Sunday night going? 💭 🌻💛 I had a really lovely Sunday appreciating the beautiful sunshine! We drove to an organic food shop to get some bits for the week and drove back through the country lanes and got to see the wildflowers growing on the side of the road as well as ponies and sheep! I do love where I live sometimes, I definitely don't always appreciate it. I also spent some time gathering inspiration on Pinterest, was cooked a lovely veggie roast by my mum and finally got stuck into Miracle Morning, which I have been meaning to read for ages now. Sundays are my favourite days of the week. 👌🏼 Don't forget to check out my latest blog post, featuring my favourite music to write to, makes great chill music to wind down to in the evenings too! I hope your Monday goes well and you have a great week. 💛🌻 #bookstagram #bookblogger #musicblogger #poet #spokenwordartist #musictowriteto #studymusic

Do you ever just feel like you need the right music to help you zone out? Well I got you covered! 🙋🏼 I put together a list of my favourite playlists and albums to write to. I would use these not just for writing and creating art (though they're selected for that) but they also make great music to chill to on a lazy summer evening such as the ones we've been having this week. 🌞 in other news, I had a fantastic day yesterday giving a lecture on spoken word for the You Can lecture series at Wirral Deen Community centre! It was so great to meet you guys & I'm looking forward to working with you again in the future. 🌟 Let me know how you like the music. 🌟 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #blogger #musicblogger #tycho #kiasmos #jamesblake #londongrammar #hersoundtrack #americanbeauty #lowfi #writing #musictowriteto

It's here! Our first ever guest contributor post by the wonderful @mazhedgehog shedding some thoughtful insight on the art of creating work for a small audience; ✨ "No, I don’t have adoring fans, but I have more peers, comrades and teachers than I thought possible" ✨ (Click the link in bio to read. 👌🏼) This is something I think so many artists can relate to! (Me especially!) And I think it's so important sometimes to not let ourselves get caught up in all the comparison! The internet is amazing place, best sellers can be birthed and millions can be made. But it's important not to let that all that noise sidetrack you from your art and I think Maz puts that into context here beautifully! Go take a read and make sure you send some support Maz's way! ✨ I'm really glad that I can begin to offer insights from various different contributors and introduce you to some of the female creative's and friends who have inspired me along the way! If you'd like to contribute something, I'd love to hear your thoughts so drop me a message! ✨ If you have a wordpress account than feel free to subscribe! AND/OR you can also sign up for my mailing list too! You will receive new blog updates, monthly wrap up's, creative tidbits and featured poems! (If you find me on Facebook there will be a big "Sign Up" button) And as always, let us know if you enjoy the article. 🙌🏼 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Peace, love & poetry! ❤️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #blogging #liverpoolblog #northernpoets #poetry #creativity #creativeliving #spokenwordartist #smallaudience #ukblogger

It's me! Just popping in to say don't forget to check out my Kon Mari post! If you've ever read #thelifechangingmagicoftidyingup or you're wondering what it's about then you might want to give my blog post a read! Aside from that I actually have some really exciting guest posts lined up so I can't wait to introduce you to some of the creatives in life who have inspired me. I'm also launching a brand new service which I will keep quiet on for now because that deserves a whole blog post of its own! 💋🤐 how are you spending the day? I'm feeling so much better about life now that the sun is out a little more. My energy levels are slowly picking up and I have these moments where I am so full of the feeling of excitement and possibility. Sometimes I feel like I can achieve anything. 💪🏼 in other news: I watched all seven seasons of Pretty Little Liars in two months and I am happy with my choices. 🙈 let me know what you think of the blog. Speak to you all soon. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #blogger #tidying #konmari #konmarimethod #mariekondo #minimalism #zerowaste

Hi loves, sorry I haven't posted in a while. I've been having a couple of health issues of late. I recently found out I have an iron deficiency and a vitamin d3 deficiency (plus a few other things like a random bout of eczema on my face! 😳) None of these are the worst things ever and they seem to be pretty easy to remedy but they are partially accountable for the extreme tiredness and brain fog I have been experiencing for the last year or so (or potentially even longer!) The doctor said it may take a few months for me to feel any improvement at all. But yesterday after around 4 weeks of taking supplements I felt a little bit better! (I think the sun also may have had something to do with that; the other day I just sat out in my garden and I could literally feel it healing my soul! ☀️) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I have some plans for some things I'd like to do and hopefully some of the bits of work I get to do in the upcoming weeks/months will actually be really fun! It's hard sometimes because I get so many ideas at once, it can be hard to decide which ones to act on. I need a little ideas box, that way I know they will all be safe and I can just open the box and pick one idea at a time! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This picture is around a year old now! My hair doesn't look like that anymore and I do my makeup different but that's okay! I'm excited to get to create more content for here and for my blog and get back into the swing of things! There are so many things I want to do, and the beautiful sunny weather we just had really got me excited for the future! In the meantime I've still been loving podcasts, watching one show continuously on Netflix and enjoying the odd non-alcoholic beer. (In 10 weeks time, I will have been sober for one year!) I've had a few headlining gigs recently that I have really enjoyed and I'm hoping I get to do a few more in the coming months too. I think the next blog post I do will cover my Feb/March favourites. I also have one on why I switched from poetry to blogging on it's way too! If you made it this far, thank you. There is a lot to be thankful for. ☀️🌻 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #blogger #spokenwordartist #healthandwellness #supplements #irondeficiency #vitamindeficiency
