Three weeks ago I blissfully emerged from my yoga class in London, to messages from my brother about my father being hospitalised. I was petrified and in a state of shock, fearing the worst. Decisions needed to be made, beyond what I was to have for breakfast that morning post yoga.
There was much I needed to do, I had to find a clinic to adminster a PCR test for travel once again (which, panicked I did not check to see if it was necessary – it wasn’t), I would need to pack, find a flight. Instead of jumping to it I found myself in a state of paralyses. I was in ‘freeze’ mode.
Fortunately, I was walking home through a park and I stopped to sit on a bench and took some breaths, noticed the clouds in the sky, watched the autumn leaves rustle on the trees and managed to find some calm and thinking space.
From there, I proceeded to check off the list and get to India as soon as I could. It has now been 3 weeks, my father is out of hospital and out of danger, making slow progress.
Positive Intelligence
All this was made possible by the simple tools I have acquired through a practice known as Positive Intelligence.
Positive Intelligence, or PQ as it is affectionately referred to, allowed me to switch my brain from panic and survial, or fight, flight and freeze mode, back to the logic part of my brain. Made possible by regularly practising the short exercises. Sounds magical doesn’t it?
The course has been life changing for me, and for clients I have taken through it.

I’m gushing a bit over Dan Harris’s TED today. It is charming, brimming with self-awareness
Dan Harris, former ABC news anchor humourosly describes how he changed his relationships by tuning into the voices in his own head .
The title of Dan’s books is 10% Happier, How I tamed the voice in my head, reduced stress without losing my edge, and found self-help that actually works – a true story. That says it all.
Watch and enjoy Dan’s talk
Until next time,
