It's been a long time!!

I just realised that this blog has been completely inactive since my first post in 2018!!  I guess that just goes to prove my point about the struggles of living with some chronic health conditions!

I've decided that due to the increasing unlikeliness of me ever actually doing anything along the lines I had intended I will repurpose this blog as a place for me to write up little pieces in response to writing prompts I encounter as a member of the brilliant Curious Descendants Club which focusses on helping people vitalise their writing around their family history research.

So far I haven't managed to attend any of the Zoom workshops, due to a combination of my stamina/fatigue and social anxiety, however they are all recorded so that I am able to watch back at my leisure and so dip in and out of.

The club sounded perfect for me as I have been attempting to research my family for years (I do mean years) picking it up as and when able, but without knowledge of the people involved it has felt like I'm merely creating a list of names and dates with very little meaning to anyone else.  I'd like to be able to instead produce something that brings elements of the people to life, reflecting on different challenges the may have faced during their lives.

So let's see where that leads, and how long it actually is before I post another update!!

A place to begin...........

Well I had told myself that I was much much better and that the time was right to launch Creative Pathworking and get myself working again; promoting Writing for Wellbeing workshops, Coaching and hopefully also doing Oracle/Tarot readings alongside.

Sadly, as is often the case with people with conditions like Fibromyalgia, ME or Lupus, I went into boom and bust mode, pushed too far too soon and completely exhausted myself in the process also heightening my mental health issues.

And so this is where the blog comes in.  I am transferring the posts that I had made on my website here for the time-being and will be adding bits as and when able to keep a little bit of focus for myself.

Hopefully at some point in the future I will have remembered the rules of pacing myself, regained my confidence and addressed more of my anxiety and depression.  At that point I am aiming to begin again - just more slowly!!

Please bear with me during this process.

Blessings
