OFF STAGE with Lisa O'Neill

We get so rigid in who we think we are. Quiet, shy, not confident, always the organiser. This week I invite you to play with the energy of opposites: do the opposite of your instinct and meet a different version of yourself. Go big instead of small, loud instead of quiet, and bust out of the box everyone's put you in.

We're all born with three things: a mind, a body, and a lifetime. How you use the first two determines the third. This week I'm talking about your head diet, why worrying is a waste of your time (be a nonstick fry pan), and why my biggest fear of being frail has turned me into someone who refuses help lifting her own bag. Nourish it, rest it, strengthen it.

You are not the voice in your head. You're just the one who hears it. This week, I'm talking Michael Singer, why your thoughts are just goldfish swimming around a bowl, and the question I ask myself every hour of every day: what would make my energy better?

Being sick tipped me straight into the victim corner which isn't where I usually live. This week I'm talking about Stephen Karpman's Drama Triangle: victim, persecutor, and rescuer. None of them are the answer, we all have a default, and once you can see these energies in your relationships, you genuinely can't un-see them.

This week, I'm talking about why sleep isn't optional when people rely on your energy, and the thing we're all so bad at: doing nothing. My challenge to you? Get one full day to yourself out of the next seven.
