Loving your Brain: 7 Tips to BETTER BRAIN WELLBEING

February 11, 2019Glenda O'NeillNo Commentsbrain health, challenge, healthy living, Hope, meaning, mindmatters, Moving Forward, purpose, self-love, Valentines Day, wellbeing; blog post

L O V E. This month somehow requires me to address this topic right?! Writings on ‘self-love’ have most definitely saturated marketing, blogs, magazines and social media worldwide during the past weeks, so I’ve been led to take a slightly different angle this time. An area and a perspective that is growing people’s curiosity daily….

Time for a RESET?

January 12, 2018Glenda O'NeillNo CommentsAnxiety, Growth Mindset, Hope, meaning, Moving Forward, novocounselling, purpose, Speak Life, stress, Transition and Grief

I love how entering a new year ushers in that opportunity to initiate a ‘RESET’…everything from your health and fitness goals; parenting and relationship goals; personal development and business goals; to decluttering and organisational goals. The reality is that such a ‘reset’ can take place at any time at all. We don’t have to wait…

I’m going to be really up front and honest with you! Over the last week I’ve had a handful of different ideas about what I wanted to share with you this month. As time drew closer I found myself really wrestling with this. It’s been a new experience for me on this platform, because every…

We Will Remember Them

November 11, 2017Glenda O'NeillNo CommentsAnxiety, Australian Defence Force, Depression, Family, Grief, Grief Support, griefandloss, mindmatters, novocounselling, pain, PTSD, purpose, Remembrance Day, Trauma

As Australians we have two special days in our calendar each year dedicated to honouring and remembering our incredible service men and women in the Defence Forces. Anzac Day and Remembrance Day are both days throughout my years that I remember with fondness. Growing up, I didn’t have a personal connection with anyone in the…

Embrace the Process

I remember the epic journey from my small country-home-town in my little Ford Laser, driving 900 kilometres across the country to the new, much less familiar regional city I had eagerly committed to making my home in for at least the next few years. This was a transition I was more than excited about. Here…

Spring (Clean) Time!

September 10, 2017Glenda O'NeillNo CommentsAnxiety, declutter, Depression, griefandloss, mindmatters, novocounselling, pain, purpose, springcleaning, stress

Spring is my favourite season of the year!!! I’m not sure about you, but my springtime memories as a child are vivid! I still remember the smell of the frangipani and jasmine flowers in my neighbourhood; the vibrant colour of my mum’s garden blooms; the crisp morning air; the reflection of the sunlight on the…

How could a parent possibly ever recover from the death of a child?

August 12, 2017Glenda O'Neill3 commentsChildren, Family, Grief, griefandloss, Grieving Parents, Loss, meaning, novocounselling, purpose, tragedy, Trauma

This is a focus I’ve had in my heart for some time, but have grappled with how to present it in a way that gives due respect and honour to parents who have endured (and continue to endure) the horrible reality of losing a child. While there are many types of grief that I’ve personally…

Discovering Purpose In Your Pain

July 13, 2017Glenda O'Neill2 commentsAnxiety, Grief, Grief Support, griefandloss, Grieving Parents, Loss, meaning, novocounselling, pain, purpose, stress, tragedy

Throughout my lifetime I have come to understand that our lives as human beings are littered with both incredible beauty and intense pain. There were times particularly earlier in my life, where I found myself asking ‘Why me?’ In those moments of heartbreak and wonder I’m not sure I ever really found an answer to…

Infertility: The heartbreak of hope deferred

June 11, 2017Glenda O'NeillNo CommentsChildren, Family, Fertility Issues, Grief, Grief Support, Having a Baby, Infertility, Loss, meaning, Pregnancy, purpose, stages of grief

“Having children may not be a reality for you!” These words echoed like gun-shots through my mind over and over again. If you’ve ever heard these words uttered to you by someone in the medical profession you will understand the intense shock and pain that follows. Despite the gentle manner in which these words had been delivered,…

Seasons: The Grief Journey

February 14, 2017Glenda O'Neill2 commentsAnxiety, Death, Depression, Grief, Loss, meaning, purpose, Trauma

I love where I live. In Australia, seasons vary dramatically according to our geographical location. What my family and I experience living in North Eastern Victoria, is vastly different to the experience of people living in Far North Queensland, which is extremely different again to those living in southern Tasmania. I enjoy the fact that…
