Soft light, cool breezes, and river views at Woronora 🌿 We took our niece and nephew down to the river after a yummy lunch at the Como Hotel—an easy, breezy escape from the heat. One of those simple afternoons that feels just right 🤍 Little moments, big calm. #WoronoraRiver #FamilyMoments #SlowLiving #SummerEscape #MyLifeJournal

🐱 Prepping the Cats for a Hot Day ☀️ Before the heat really sets in, we start slow and simple. A little play to burn off energy, fresh food, topped up water bowls — and then they disappear. Once the sun climbs, it’s all about cool floors, quiet corners and long naps hiding from the heat until the afternoon. Listening to their rhythm reminds me to slow down too. Sometimes the best summer lesson is rest. 💤 #MyLifeJournal #CatLife #SummerDays #SlowLiving #LifeWithCats MindfulMoments HeatwaveLiving

One of my favourite things to do at year’s end ✨ Even though this was a quieter year, making these little flashback videos reminds me just how meaningful it’s been — a year of slowing down, reflecting, learning and gently realigning. Not every season needs to be loud to be powerful. Grateful for the still moments and the inner growth they brought. Happy New Year ✨ Here’s to moving forward with clarity and intention. #MyLifeJourney #YearOfReflection #QuietGrowth #SlowLiving #ReflectAndReset InnerJourney GentleLiving NewYearIntentions MindfulMoments

Nothing brings the festive spirit to life quite like a family gingerbread house competition ✨🏠 Laughter in the kitchen, icing-covered fingers, a little friendly rivalry and plenty of sweet memories made along the way. It’s not about who wins — it’s about coming together, slowing down and celebrating the magic of being present with the people you love 🤍 Moments like these are the ones worth journalling and holding onto long after the holidays are over. #MyLifeJournal #FestiveMoments #GingerbreadHouse #FamilyTraditions #HolidayMagic
