My money mindset has changed massively over the last decade. I’ve gone from worrying about whether I could afford to keep my house to being mortgage free and on the path to financial freedom.
The journey has taken me through a kaliedoscope of budgeting methods, money making endeavours and gastronomic experiments.
Life is not linear – this came as a surprise to me. As someone who held a very linear world view, I envisioned myself staying in my job, paying my mortgage off, amassing a small fortune and having a very comfortable future. I was well and truly on my safe, linear path.
My unintentional journey with breathwork started almost two decades ago. I’d returned to a town I loved to start my Masters degree and saw an advert for local Tai-Chi classes. After leaving a stressful job in the city, I was ready to embrace my new found freedom, so decided to sign up.
Tai-Chi taught me to get out of my head and into my body. It was the first time I’d learned to synchronise the breath with movement and I was amazed at how calm and clear I felt after each class.
