BLOG
I have a LOT of blog posts to look through! If you’re looking for something specific, like “shadow work” or “text mapping”, I suggest using Google with your search words and “ubu skills”.

Read through to find some thought provoking journal questions, and don't forget to grab the free shadow work one sheet!
Shadow Work to Close 2020
You know that period between The Holidays (whichever you celebrate) and New Year’s Eve? Those few days where the party is over, you’re letting your kids play video games as long as they like while you finish off the last chocolates in the box (the strawberry and orange flavoured ones) and finish off all the cheese for lunch?

Why I Love Tarot
For my 23rd birthday, my best friend gave me a Tarot deck.
