Generate motivation:

Just one thing. One thing you’ve put off or waited to address or ignored. Think about why it matters, how it will help things, how it fits into the bigger picture. How do you want things to be? You do care about this thing or it wouldn’t still be in mind. Care a bit more. Feel the urge to have it done or have it begun. Feel the system getting revved and take the tiniest bit of action towards the thing. Just a little. Now you’ve started, now you have momentum. Just make a little move towards where you want to be and from that little move, momentum begins. Keep it going in the smallest way today.

Comfortable?

Lock your eyes here, and imagine, while you’re looking at my words, your eyes are also looking up, at the sky, at the roof, looking up, your eyes may even start to drop a little, as you relax, you may even yawn, that’s ok, or not, doesn’t matter, and your subconscious mind can begin to notice, just casually, easily, comfortably, all those parts that feel ok, that feel fine, maybe even parts that feel pretty good, closing the tabs on any not so comfortable parts for now, prioritising areas of comfort, of ok-ness, of pretty-good-ness, that’s right, all cells alive, alert, chill, just knowing that there are comfortable places and parts, zoning in, increasing comfort now, just let comfort spread, it will, letting comfort take over for now, gaining more clarity and confidence in yourself, you are, and you can comfortably move off into your day feeling ok, or perhaps a little better than ok. Enjoy.

Neutral brain space:

When we’re trying to shift states, it’s usually easier to access neutral as a beginning, mainly for states we don’t love, such as pain, tiredness/exhaustion, boredom, worry, etc. The idea is to abandon fighting or fixating and simply name the state. “Oh, ok sadness; hello, there you are”. Just name with neutrality, say g’day and move on without dwelling. Whenever the sensation arises, say hi, acknowledge its presence then move forward in mind and body if possible. We may need to greet sensations hundreds of times a day. Yes there are times we need to track and analyse but in general, neutrality acknowledgement is our friend and it can break the brain loop of secondary emotion (the fear or frustration we can add to what we feel). Stay in neutral zone when needed today!

Mini burnouts:

Many of us know what a burnout feels like. Exhaustion, irritability, pain, brain fog, desire to withdraw from extra stuff and general malaise. It can feel like being a zombie dragging yourself through the day until it passes or adequate rest is achieved. The key question to ask is around what has been too much. Sometimes it’s obvious; a period of immense stress, a bout of poor sleep or just doing too much. Sometimes it’s more nuanced and we need to do some emotional detective work to see what we’ve been carrying consciously and subconsciously. In burnt out phases, we must be self-companionate. No self-critical thoughts, just compassionate self-enquiry.

See the humour!

Just a reminder to keep a sense of humour amongst it all. Humour helps us keep perspective and, at times, a healthy detachment when things are grim or chaotic. Humour helps us drop our defences and gets that medicinal laughter happening. Do you watch enough quality comedy? Watching a funny tv series or movie is brain boosting; short-form videos or reels less so. Humour helps all our relationships in life and reminds us of how ridiculous human nature can be! Find the funny today.

For tiredness:

Rest your eyes here, on my words, as I slowly speak to you, and you can listen with your inner mind, while your live mind wanders about wherever, whenever, relaxing and breathing in, all that cool clean air, brightening the brain now, every cool breath makes it brighter, and brighter still, all the lights turning on for you now, flick that switch, brightness level up, that’s right, daylight bright, then later, when it’s the right time, your inner mind can remember for you, the brightness turns down, relaxing, easy, comfortable, effort can stop as needed, and start as required, automatic, easy, nothing bothers you now, nothing disturbs you, your battery charging to full now, in energy saving mode, ready for your needs, lights on, power up, engines active, sharp and clear, you’re good to go. Go well.

Social media “advice”:

The oversimplification of complex psychological and emotional realities is rife on social media and in a lot of the personal development literature. Often these “simple” solutions are offered by non-clinicians who have somehow “stumbled” upon the secret to feeling X and eliminating Y. Often they are selling a product or service, or their “brand”. Reading the “simple solutions” can feel invalidating if they don’t “work”, as if you aren’t trying hard enough or applying it “properly”. Of course there are useful things that we read, things that look at the issue from a different lens or validate something we’ve been confused about. But an info bite can’t take individual complexity and personal history into account. It can’t know trauma, generational patterns, unique brain chemistry, blend of neuro divergence or other patterns of the psyche. It’s ok to look but we should never be fooled into thinking there is any “universal solution” or that the writers or these “solutions” are problem-free. As we all know, many gurus have been exposed for not walking the talk or being downright deceptive about their actual life. Self-help should be judged by its fruits. Use what’s useful but know that the answer is often “it depends” in terms of what will have a long-term positive outcome.

Include yourself in empathy.

Many people have an abundance of empathy for others which, while a wonderful thing, may lead to overlooking difficult or inappropriate behaviour. This overly-empathic pattern contains the potential for a lot of self-sacrifice. It’s the “looking through THEIR eyes” effect. To ensure that self-empathy or self-compassion is also included, it’s crucial to take a look through our own eyes as well as those of the other. You matter too.

Protection for today:

The universe has a protection racket going on. It’s actually set up to have your back. Whatever emotional state you need for today, just connect to the force and request it. Then chill out and know that the right inner conditions are coming for whatever you need to do today. All is well.

Optimism reboot:

As you read this, your inner software running quietly in the background, slowly breathing, slower now, allowing your eyes to glide easily over my words, and you can know, and perhaps comfortably remember, that optimism isn’t about a fake reality, but more about optimising the mind for the current reality, just the facts, no generalising, no personalising, no making it broader or bigger than what it is, just staying with what is, updating the software now to what could be, for you, the realistic, warmly specific what could be, optimising inner circumstances, keeping that inner voice on the facts, just the facts ma’am, one at a time, step by step, what aspects are good here, what aspects are working well already, what’s the next tiny step towards the good, the action, the reframe, the appreciation of what is going well, focusing on what truly matters in the now, taking the best steps for you, small steps create the bright future, all signs point to right thought, right action, calm waters, clear mind, you stay the course, you see the horizon, it’s all yours and it’s all good. Optimise and enjoy today.

Unfairness triggers:

Many of us, especially those with any kind of neurodivergence, get very activated by unfairness, both at global and local levels. It’s an issue in relationships and it’s an issue at work. The unfairness trigger can be even more powerful when it comes to things others have said about us, or implied about us. While de-personalising other people’s opinions is a wonderful thing, it can be much harder when it involves ourselves. An easier way is to be accepting of the experience of unfairness dysphoria and acknowledge that an unfairness wave has been triggered without too much analysis of what’s true or false in the situation, and that it will pass soon. Compassionate acceptance is ok when it’s a more distant or less significant person, and of course sometimes the truth needs to be defended or corrected. It’s up to our own wise mind to discern the best way forward. Notice any unfairness dysphoria and tap into wise mind for next steps.

The purpose question:

Many people are stumped at various times in life regarding purpose. Life purpose in general is a huge question and often it’s better to drill down and regard purpose as something dynamic that links to the present moment rather than a lifetime. Here’s a question that can help clarify in the moment to redirect when purpose is blurry. Ask “What triggers my spark or aliveness RIGHT NOW?” This brings us to present moment awareness so we can follow the golden breadcrumbs without the pressure of a fully existential question. Notice moments of aliveness and spark and let them show the way forward.
