So what's the solution?¿ Learn how to stop feeling powerless by connecting to the power already inside you¿ Stop making decisions rooted in fear and move towards hope, joy and love¿ Take back control to radically transform your lifeThis book is for all women blocked by fear and uncertainty, who are caught up in the relentless cycle of self-judgement and ever-increasing pressures of work, home and family.My greatest hope is for this book to be a lifeline that pulls you out of the confusion and misery of self-doubt, to help you step into the light of love, gain confidence in who you are, and create a life you truly want.

'Letters to Matthew' invites you into the world of grief. It is not sugar coated or edited to make it an easy read, which is why it has been separated into two distinct parts.Part one contains the heartfelt letters written by grieving mother Louise to her son Matthew after he died at the age of twenty-seven. The letters are a mixture of anguish, deep sorrow, humour, wisdom, personal insights and experiences that may resonate with others who have lost a special person. Part two is about her journey of self-discovery and how Louise turned her grief and loss into something positive. This book is not about fixing people or forcing the healing process because, as the book explains, there is no cure for grief. Grief can only be absorbed, carried, experienced and cared for.The loss of a child is unimaginable, but Louise has managed to turn this heart-breaking experience into something positive. By sharing her letters, insights, thoughts and feelings with the world she is not only keeping Matthew's memory alive but also giving hope to other people that life can meaningful again after the death of a loved one.Grief is a sensitive subject which makes it challenging for writers to describe in a way that feels both real and honest. Louise has shown her vulnerability and documented her experience in a very brave and open-hearted way.The book does have an uplifting ending!

Yes, I have rebuilt my life, so I know it can be done.I wrote this book because I wanted something easy to read and was simple to understand. How I could change my life from one of fear to one of love? Friends told me I needed to put into a book what I did and why. It has taken me a long time to put it down on paper. As I had to write about what happened to me. It was not easy to do, but it has made me see things clearly. Please don't ever give up on life and your dreams.

Some people 'find' themselves through God.Others achieve this through long distance travel, either walking the Camino del Santiago or visiting the great pyramids in Egypt.Then there are people (like me) who get to know their real selves through astrology and prior to that genealogy.Everyone though had one thing in common- they all went searching for their selves after trauma or heartache of some description.When I first discovered my ancestors and read about their many trials and tribulations via the ancestry website I was dumbfounded.Their hidden secrets (or so they thought) were now exposed for all to see thanks to the advances in technology, these historical records were now online.There were bigamous marriages, prostitution, many early deaths as well as some who went into the workhouse and one who had spent 18 years in the asylum.As I transferred the information from the database of my ancestry into my modern astrological software I met many aspects of my own current character, and in fact my own 'shadow'.Parts of which I was yet to master.Many of the ancestors were gifted in ways we still don't understand, even in this modern age-namely they were psychic, healers and visionaries.As I discovered more about the ancestors through their birth and death charts I also discovered more about myself and 'who' and 'what' was operating within me and through me.Science calls this DNA I call it Karma.Along with their blood and genes I had inherited their unfulfilled desires ,their repressed parts, their unresolved conflicts as well as memories.Let's hope I can bring resolution to these matters that are still outstanding once and for all and by the time I come to pass I have achieved everything that I ever wanted to..just so as my children and future generations can fulfil their own desires and not have to fulfil mine first.I am not alone, we are all spiritual seekers and how we find our own truth and peace matters not, only that we find it.

Life is very complex and intricate. Every decision we make is made for a reason, either consciously or, more often than not, subconsciously. This includes your choice of school friends, your hobbies, your career pathway, your car (not just because it is the cheapest), your life partner or partners, the foods you like and don't like, and your tastes in music. These are decisions we have all made throughout our life, some we have been helped with and others we have made alone. Many people like sport; a majority of them are football supporters! They choose their team in many different ways, guided by their family or friends (I told my two children, "There are ninety-two teams in England. Support any one of the ninety-one of them. If you support the ninety-second, out you go.") or swayed by the media (more so these days). The team your friends follow and obviously the local team to where you live, that is usually the team you follow. When I decided that football would be my sport of choice, I had no family to guide me (no one was interested in football), and there was no local league team for the majority of my childhood. Birmingham was over twenty miles from Colwall, and Reading over twenty miles away from Newbury. And for the year I was in Nottingham, there were two teams to worry about, and so I had ninety-two league teams to choose from! Which one should I choose, and why? Because the one thing I realized even at a young age is that the team you choose is your team for life! That is unless you are a glory hunter, which certainly happened with some people I knew and went to school with in Nottingham. They were supporters of many different teams when I moved away from Nottingham in the mid-1970s, but when I came back to Nottingham in the early 1980s, they were all "loyal" Forest supporters!
