Clearly you’ve got a shit ton of stuff to do this week. If not, I tip my hat to you, please go back to your book, hot chocolate, and clean, streamlined house – sorry to have troubled you. However, if you’re a normal mortal like the rest of us – may I take a moment… Read More >
Resolutions, now’s not the time

After all that’s happened this year, and whatever kind of Christmas it was… I hope you have your feet up and that you’re congratulating yourself for getting to this point. Well bloody done, in the extreme. While I have you for a second – I’ve got a message for… Read More >
And Another Thing, Doctor
I said I was going to convince you not to make New Year’s Resolutions, but that wasn’t exactly it. I wanted you to hang fire for a bit and I invite you to consider some other things FIRST. That was my polite way of saying you REALLY need to do this. To get some nuts… Read More >
Puppy Train Your Lying Brain

And let me help you make THIS the time you permanently succeed at that THING you want to achieve. And for the process to be much… Read More >

My LIFE STORY (well some of it) By Tanya aged 47 and a Quarter.
Someone’s just handed me a metaphorical trumpet and told me to blow it. So I’ve cleaned the place, made a cup of tea, let it go cold, cleaned out my bag and made another cup of tea. The car still needs doing. I suppose it’s the same reason I’m not mad keen on taking selfies,… Read More >
Blue Monday
I’m going to get in there first. Blue Monday is this Monday – traditionally the saddest day of the year. NORMALLY The festivities are behind us The presents have been enjoyed The decorations have come down The January bank statement is looming There is nothing particularly scientific about it, but we all kind of nod… Read More >
The Excellent Question
Someone just wrote to ask if she could join Human Upgrade …now. Sadly (And I hate this) I had to say no – doors are open later this year so she will join us then. She asked if there was anything she could do in the meantime – a quick tip?I realised that lots of… Read More >

When life gives you lemons
This was us the other day. (Claire’s behind the camera) We tipped each of our 2 youngest children out of their beds – to go ‘Sunflower Picking’. I have never used that phrase before yesterday. The reason I hadn’t heard it before, is because near where we live – it hadn’t happened before. This particular… Read More >
Brain Tumours, Bum Fingering & Ridiculous Confetti
2020, eh? Sheesh. I’ve been really thinking about why I haven’t freaked out as much as lots of people have.I think the reality is – I had my own 2020 in 2016.(and a mini-extended one over the 2019-last month)The talk that I bust out on stage, begins with me saying ‘3 women stuck their finger… Read More >
Change what you can
If at first, you don’t ‘suck seed’… (I made Buddhist pun …*nods sagely*) A Buddhist Teaching: Look at an apple tree.There might be five hundred apples on the tree, and each apple has ten seeds. That’s a lot of seeds. We might ask, “Why would you need so many seeds to grow just a few… Read More >
Taking your brain’s bra off
When I sign up for courses… I don’t always see them through. Often I do – but holding my hands up – other times, I start out well and mean to come back to it. Then I don’t come back to it. (which is slightly terrifying to realise about myself as I’ve personally just signed… Read More >
They’re Watching
In Human Upgrade today, we talked about what an amazing example it sets to do daily exercise. The fact that children are home from school to see it – makes it better rather than worse. That stuff goes in. If you’ve got teeny children – you have got even more of a head-start with this… Read More >
Self Care Is Annoying
Self-Care is annoying. As a concept. I get it, though. I know what people mean and we, ourselves, advise people to do it. But as a separate ‘activity’, reality is – we know it will be the first thing to go. It’s you having to add yet another thing. Most people are ‘functioningly’ knackered…. Read More >
Relationship MOT, would you pass?
Want to book yourself in for our Relationship Emotional Security M.O.T? Any advisories? A bit of work need doing? Or will you fly through? It’s interesting, how lockdown’s affected unexpected areas of life – both for the better and for the worse. There we were, playing a reasonable round of the game of life, and… Read More >
Don’t Be Like Tanya
Don’t be like me. As a feral teenager with a large perm and a cocky attitude – I was left almost completely to my own devices. Also, importantly – I didn’t find being organised very interesting. Upshot: I was massively disorganised. What I did find interesting was; going to places I was too young for,… Read More >

Questions That Could Change Your Life
While difficult conversations sometimes HAVE to happen… what about having them before things get to breaking point. When you think about it – when you are angry and fed up – it’s unlikely that you are in the best place for a productive discussion. In the same way – an unexpected onslaught can be bet with defensiveness. So while we have been arming the Human… Read More >
Health & Happiness
You Are Not Your Body. As the Human Upgrade Sisterhood prepare for their 12-week fitness plan (and The Inner Circle have fitness goodies a’comin too – if you haven’t joined, this would be a very good time) I thought I would blatantly repost this morning’s photo. A message came through just before, which said ‘I… Read More >
