Wisdom

I was interested to read in the Daily Telegraph last Friday, that according to the latest research, WISDOM comes from the brain slowing down in old age, making us elders less impulsive and driven by emotion. We may not hear so well either, so can take our time ponder over responses instead of simply reacting. If younger people get impatient with our lack of fast repartee, it's so they can learn patience, which is a great virtue!

Some have commented on my title of 'wisewoman' as being somewhat egoic, which I really must refute. What I aim for, in the words of this popular saying, is... to have the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change... the Courage to change the things I can... and the Wisdom to know the difference... and I believe that comes with maturity, whatever one's age.

'Wisewoman' is really a tongue-in-cheek reference to my business logo of the wise old owl. During the many years of my life I've learned much from study, training and life experience, which I'm able to pass on to help others if I can and that is my passion in life!!! Actually, I'm often not very wise at all, but don't tell anyone I said so.

Any comments will be gratefully received... to add to my wisdom... :)

Yoga in the mountains

I spent last weekend at Triganos, a centre for interesting workshops within sight of Snowdon, practising Yoga, Tai Chi and Chi Gong. The weather was wonderful, our teacher Rose inspiring and the company congenial. (That's Snowdon in the centre background.)

After delicious vegetarian nosh we relaxed in the garden to soak up the warm sun, so welcome after weeks of cold north wind.

it was a most relaxing and inspiring time, without TV, Internet and interruptions.

Roll on my next journey to Scotland next week!

Zummer is a'comin' in... at last!

Sunday dawned without a cloud in the sky and produced the hottest day since last year, at least!

Not a day to exert oneself too much, at least in the heat of the midday sun. So it was mid-afternoon when Phil, Julie and myself were inspired to go for a walk from Phil's caravan in the hills.


After meandering through boggy fields and negotiating barbed wire fences, we finally found our way to the waterfall, which Phil promised would be cool and refreshing. As you can see from these pics, we made the most of it, skinny-dipping in the wonderful cool water.

Even I got in with Julie's help, and Phil took this one on his phone to prove it!

And below... Calender girl for May?

THE FOG

Yesterday, which was supposed to be hot and sunny everywhere, brought a thick fog to Llandudno.


The Orme couldn't be seen from the promenade, as you can see in the first picture but holidaymakers were out doing their thing anyway!


The Fog stayed around most of the morning, finally lifting by late afternoon to let the sun shine through, when I went for a walk along West shore, though you can still see remnants of fog against the hills.

Re-branding

At last I've decided on who I am... and how to market what I have to offer! I have to admit it's not been easy to be objective about myself and over the past few weeks I've tried various ideas only to reject them as too pretentious or whacky. As my sister now has her new website... www.dianeholliday.co.uk, we are no longer under the name of WHO2, which apparently nobody could relate to anyway.

I've been working on my new website... www.patricia-wynne.co.uk and I'd love to know what you think about it. For instance, does this section of one of my photographs convey the idea of freshness and growth? Does the wording tell you what you'd like to know about who I am and what I do?

After all the training I've done and clients I've helped, I've come to realise that my passion is in the area of Personal Development and I think I do have a lot to offer to anyone who desires a more than ordinary life... and is prepared to tread the road less travelled.

I'm offering courses and workshops on the 7-Step Strategy for Transformation, also available as an ebook and online course. My invitation to women to Come to the Edge with me, to discover their true potential, is on again. I hope to hear from anyone who'd appreciate a 1-5 day therapeutic breakthrough intensive in my home in North Wales.

Please feel free to comment or email me at pwynne22@googlemail.com. (I haven't got the email linked to the website as yet.) Thanks for following my adventures... I love you!

Best Laid Plans...

Earlier this year I declared my intention to sell up and buy a motorhome to live in. My Prime Intention was to be able to travel; (one passion,) while visiting people who want to learn how to make their lives better, introducing EFT as far and wide as possible; (my other passion.)

Now, as any coach will tell you, the idea is just the start. Before any goal can become feasible, there is much preparation to be done. Before undertaking any journey, you must assess the cost, investigate the best mode of transport and decide on the time scale, among many other details.

Then you would plan the route, set the SatNav or buy the tickets. Finally, you'd be ready to actually set off. At this point anything could happen to delay your departure; the car might break down, there may be a rail strike, you could oversleep and miss your flight, or a cloud of volcanic dust could appear to ground all aircraft! The best laid plans can go awry, as Burns put it, and the only thing to do is to return to base and start over again.

I still have my goal in sight, but because of the slump in house prices, among other considerations, the plan has to be modified. I would have to raise funds to buy even a small campervan, in order to attend the summer festivals, to raise awareness of the healing power of the mind through EFT.

So I'm still focussed on my INTENTION while working on other projects; networking, seeing clients, writing and my own personal development, while keeping fit by walking and cycling and enjoying the company of my family as much as possible.

I'm progressing one step ata time and am open to whatever happens... and miracles do happen, all the time!

Spring is Springing

It must be spring... in spite of cold winds, the sun is shining, buds are budding, daffodils are blooming and it is gradually warming up.


So instead of writing this blog or anything else, I've been getting out and about... walking and cycling around this peninsula... not too far afield, as yet.

This blog is simply about my gratitude for my life and health; my appreciation of nature in all its aspects... from benign calm to the wildest storm. We did have stormy seas a couple of weeks ago, when the coast was battered about a bit and it was awe-inspiring to see. Didn't get any pictures though.
Spent a couple of days with Julie in her 'hovel in the hills'. (Just joking!) It's very cosy.

Mark's been here and gone again. We had a visit from long-lost 'cousin' Phil and a good time was had by all.

So I trust you're enjoying this spring as much as I am.
