If you are in that situation they would like to talk to you and perhaps feature you in the documentary. If you are interested please e-mail me: annie.oneill@newhorizons.uk.com Read Full Story
Unfortunately, in these times of recession, more and more couples are having to stay living in the same house even though they’ve split up and may be going through a divorce. This can increase the stress of going through a divorce to unbearable levels. Read Full Story

There is nothing enlightening about shrinking so that other people won’t feel unsure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone. As we let our own Light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others” Read Full Story
So many people are so busy looking after other people or pursing careers that they forget to look after themselves. But if you don’t look after yourself who will?
Take some time to look after YOU. After all, if you’re feeling great you’ll be better placed to look after others or do a good job. We all lead busy lives and often we don’t take the time to look after ourselves but it is important to take time out and concentrate on yourself now and again. It isn’t selfish to take care of yourself.... Read Full Story
A brilliant book – Eat Pray Love by Elizabeth Gilbert is the author’s account of her (physical and spiritual) journey following her bitter divorce and disastrous rebound fling. She travels to Italy (Eat), India (Pray) and Indonesia (Love).

It is important to take responsibility for our thoughts and actions. Nobody else is responsible for your happiness or your feelings, as you are not responsible for the happiness of others or the way they feel.
Many people laugh at ‘The Law of Attraction’ (LOA) but it is true that we attract what we think about. If you pay attention to what is wrong in your life then your life will be full of things going wrong. If you pay attention instead to what is working you will notice t... Read Full Story
Recent reports in the media state that more couples are signing pre-nuptial agreements although ‘pre-nups’ are not yet legally binding in England and Wales.
There are arguments for and against pre-nuptial agreements. On the one hand it’s a way of safeguarding the assets that you had before you met your fiancée. On the other hand, why would you marry someone you had so little trust in? It almost smacks of expecting the marriage to fail. Then again, with the failure rate of marriage at approxim...

I was recently asked if it is true that everyone must have a ‘rebound’ relationship, one that helps restore confidence but is short lived. I replied that I didn’t think there had to be a rebound relationship, although it is quite common. Read Full Story

I just had my 18 year old son stay with me for the last four days and I have to say I had the absolute best time for ages!
When you’ve been through a divorce or had a painful ending to a long standing relationship, in many cases it’s difficult to keep that close bond with your children because you don’t always feel as though you’re there 24/27 as it was in my case.
I also have a 17 year old daughter who I’m also extremely close to so in my case it was a bit... Read Full Story
