Mindfulness in the moment

One of those mornings when you get up late…rush the start to the day… race to get things done… and end up completely discombobulated – no mindfulness.

I threw myself into the river, swam, got out and then felt completely cheated. I had cheated myself. With my racing – I had ‘missed’ my swim. Sure I had been in but without mindfulness I had missed the experience entirely. Too cold to get back in and swim again I sat for a while on the river bank and consciously soaked in the day. Breath in peace and calm…release all the dross, tension and crappy racing around. After all race around for what?…nothing…. That’s what. Rushing – total waste of time. All it does is build up tension, stress and adds to anxiety and sense of going ‘nowhere’ … fast.

Note to self – learn the lesson.

And so I sat…watched Heron come and go… observed the water, listened to its song as it swirled downstream…not rushing, just taking its time, going at its natural pace…going with the ‘flow’

And I breathed it all in… and felt the magic work…felt the sense of calm begin to flow through me…

Lot to be said for mindfulness in the moment… just being…no rush…

On the way back along the river path I came across this Heather – that certainly hadn’t ‘rushed’ to flower…and now it was enjoying being… singularly standing out this morning…just being…

…was feeling at my wits end..needed someone to turn to who would intuit, guide and understand…without judgement or bias… WOW! Kay…This was JUST what I needed..THANK YOU!

Sarah

The most significant experience for me is that I have discovered my creativity… Kay and her Kaiamea has aided all aspects of my life, including at home and at work. I had become so bogged down with living I had forgotten how to open my eyes.

Nicola, Liverpool

KaiAmea has helped my confidence and self esteem. It has helped me move on in my life. I am able to approach problems with less stress and a calmer attitude.

KaiAmea has made me re evaluate myself and return to who I once was but who I had lost along the way!

Naomi, Midlands

Kay’s Kaiamea has helped me so much. I love it because its helping me find myself. A true road of discovery to who I am. It has helped me learn so much about myself.

Pip, West Midlands

With Kay’s help I felt like I came home to myself. Everything now has so much more meaning. Thanks Kay for giving me the energy and guidance to get this far!

Mia, Midlands

This blew my mind. I was sceptical. How could someone I didn’t even know help me without even meeting me? Yet it was as if Kay had known me for years… helping me in not just recognising emotions and thoughts that were holding me back.

Jon, Nottinghamdshire

Kay has helped me overcome my problems with food and my relationship with myself and others to discover the joy, freedom and power of who I really am.

Louise, Northants

Kay has given me the tools to take back my power and the strength to take responsibility for myself and my life.

Meeting Kay has been the best thing that has ever happened to me. I now lead a free life without the fear that used to hold me back.
