'We can choose to change our behaviours, clothes, and outside environment. We can choose to go on holidays or change jobs, get a new partner or have a bath at the end of the day. However, unless we choose to change the actual quality we perform all these activities in, we have not truly made a different choice, but instead merely improved our landscape, so to speak, on the outside'. - Brendan Mooney Psychologist

Exhaustion has become a major global issue as reflected by the steady increase of stimulants in recent years. Perhaps we could have more conversations worldwide about why we are exhausted, and how we can support ourselves to regain true vitality'. - Brendan Mooney Psychologist
'Life is about people, and when we make it about people everything works. But when we make it about money or a better house etc., although we may gain materially it comes at the expense of our relationships.
