Before you have a conversation with a loved one, try to clarify what they want from you.

"Do you want to be...
Helped, Hugged or Heard?"

A shorter code is to say, "Vent or Fix?"

That way, you know if you need to put your listening ears on, find solutions with them as a team or just to be present and comfort the person to turn their fight or flight response off.

You may find that a person wants to be heard and soothed. Be careful not to be a fixer. It can come across as not listening/ a shutdown or pitching opinions long before all the information is relayed and solutions are asked for.

I concur with Mel. To FENG SHUI YOUR LIFE is a better option than making a list of radical things you will never stick to.

-Trim back the energy vampires [not good for mental health or your precious time]
-See who really demonstrates care for you - not just empty words.
-Remove the small stuff: If it doesn't matter in 5 years, it doesn't really matter
-Prepare and plan for the future so there is less stress for future you. Even if it is just laying out clothes for work tomorrow or putting a cup and coffee pod in the night before. Your future self will thank you. [Everything you plan removes stress down the line.]
-Balance out your life if it isn't balanced:
Family/ Work/ Exercise/ Goals/ Money/ Spirit & Soul/ Learning & Growth/ Community/Love/ Hobbies, etc.
-Declutter regularly: The dead spots in the house. The cupboards. The 10 year old facecream. The stuff you never use. Donate or chuck.
-Consistent exercise is better than overdoing it and putting yourself off or causing injury.
-Planning is discipline: Doing something each day on your to-do list is progress.

DO SOMETHING NICE FOR FUTURE YOU EVERYDAY. IT WILL LESSON STRESS FOR THEM.

Sharing:

“My husband just finished this paint job and he made me promise to share it because the people he showed it to ignored him or brushed it off.

Here's why this matters. Seven years of severe depression where I watched the man I married disappear completely. Couldn't get out of bed most days, lost his job, stopped talking to our kids. Last year, his therapist said find something to work with your hands, so he bought this beat up 1967 Beetle with money his dad left him, and I thought he'd wasted it on junk.

But he started working on it every single day in our garage. Some days, all he did was sand one panel, but he kept showing up. And slowly, he started coming back to us. Started smiling again. This paint job took three months. He learned from tutorials and some car groups who actually encouraged him and bought his custom paint from a maker in a shop who spent an hour teaching him technique over the phone.

When he showed his friends and family, they left him on read. Just didn't respond at all. So he asked me to post it here because maybe strangers would understand what this actually means better than people who've known him forever.

This car saved my husband's life. It's proof that broken things can be beautiful again if you just keep working. And the man I married is finally back.”

🤗❤️
[Don't give up on people. Try something to help them.]

Visiting family over the holidays?
Just be aware that a lot of old pecking order labels and character brands may come out as the people you visit try to pop you in their boxes: Aka. Who people think you are.

The topic of difficult family came up a lot the week before Christmas.
Don't let it get to you.

Other people's opinions of you are none of your business, and any labels will be designed to make their ego's comfortable, not yours.

I'm here for a chat over a cuppa. Tomorrow to Wednesday and then normal hours from the 7th of January.

Forget the New Year's Resolution:
The best thing that you can be is 100% YOU. Not who you think you should be.
Authentically, you.

Even if you don't think you will be as popular.
Call me crazy, but the crazy ones ALWAYS LEAD... And you can never fully evolve or be successful in your destined path if you are playing someone else's life...

Happy New Year!

Hi. I feel a little lonely now that my children have gone home. [Awww...😔] This feeling is normal for Mamas to feel. My photo ( #2) was taken after I could relax. After lunch when we fell into an exhausted heap and food coma. (Anti-climax. Lol.)

I'm sharing a post that I found on FB. Perfect!

Why? I think comparisons are going to affect a lot of people, especially if the family photos on SM make the season look better for some.

But... There are a lot of FILTER photos and A.I. photos. And we cannot compete with filters, right?

Christmas is about company, food, and coming together after long periods apart. It's not about showing off who has the flashest house, best decorations, most expensive presents, and the Martha Stewart catering. Really? Who cares?

I just loved having my children together, and they got along! It was a treat!

So, when if you feel lonely when folks have gone, if you have a fight with your spouse over the holidays, if you feel let down by yourself or people, just remember that it is what everyone is probably feeling about now. It's all part of the program. Don't beat yourself up...

Chat to me next week or after the 7th of January if you need to offload. Okay?

And blessings for the new year.

Merry Christmas to you from Currumbin.

I just facilitated my last happy couple's session until the new year.

What are you doing for Christmas?

My family basically overeat sushi, then binge watch Christmas movies.

I hope there are lots of pressies under your tree this year.

Thank you to my clients and all the helpers out there making a difference. Blessings to the retail staff everywhere, too. It sure was busy at The Pines just now.

Stay safe.
Stay chill.

Lots of hugs,
🤗🎄🤶🎅
