Writing notes to elephants. Letters to a hole.

by Havi Brooks | Jan 14, 2010 | stucknesses & stuckification

One of my clients has an elephant. We don’t know yet if it’s the elephant in the room. Or if it’s the elephant that you can only describe parts of. Or another elephant altogether. A student of mine has a hole in her memory. Another one thinks she has...

Iguanaccountability: Havi’s Chicken crosses the road.

by Havi Brooks | Jan 12, 2010 | mindful time management, stucknesses & stuckification
