My Positivity And Gratitude Journal: Recent Episodes
Charlotte Matthews
As a new mum during a pandemic I've struggled with my mental health so I've created this series of podcasts as my gratitude and positivity journal. Throughout these podcasts I'll ramble on about things to do with parenting, teaching, work-life balance, gratitude, mindfulness and little bites of everyday positivity.
Just another ramble about life, positivity, work as a teacher, and the amazing book, 'Good Vibes, Good Life' by Vex King. What an incredible and thought provoking read!
So today is a short ramble about me coping with my anxiety and how small steps can make things more manageable for me.
So it's been sunny in the UK and sunshine does bring me happiness but also anxiety. This is another ramble about anxiety and compassion.
As with every episode, this is totally unedited. Today, I am talking about toddler tantrums and how I've been trying to deal with them more positively.
So today I am talking about the topic of grief and how we impact on the lives of others around us and how others impact on our lives and the way in which we think.
So, I'm back with another ramble about work and balancing my time. Please leave me any comments about my ramble today!
