Mindfulness is a specific state of mind or way of looking at the world that is characterized by openness, awareness, focused intention and acceptance. It is the way in which we connect with our experiences and ourselves, fully and non-judgmentally.

Have you ever considered talking with a mental health professional? Entering therapy is a big step towards mental wellness that requires a great deal of courage, particularly if we don’t know what to expect. Some things that are good to know are;
🌿Therapy is not just for people who have severe mental health symptoms. In fact serious mental illness may be prevented if symptoms are recognised and addressed earlier. Early warning signs of mental unwellness could be; low mood or mood swings, irritability, aggressiveness, tiredness or fatigue, withdrawal from friends and family, lack of motivation, general aches and pains or feeling ill, increased or decreased appetite, overwhelming thoughts, or any other sign of unbalanced wellbeing.
🌿Therapy is not about someone else telling you what’s best for you. A good therapist will listen and empathise with your unique situation, thoughts and feelings. The role of the therapist is to help you reflect and uncover the best ways for YOU to help yourself and to support you along the way.
🌿Therapy is not always a long and expensive process, depending on the needs of the client and their goals, real change and progress can occur in just a few sessions.
🌿Checking in with a mental health professional is a great way to look after you’re overall well-being. It can help to clarify your thoughts and identify the behaviours that are most inline with your life goals and purpose. There can be benefits to your relationships, your career, your self-esteem and your health.
🪴Reach out and ask for support, an understanding and non-judgemental professional can help you take positive steps towards improved health and wellness, can help you to clarify your thoughts and emotions, can help you plan steps towards your goals and remind you of the strengths you have that will help you get there.

Increased use of psychiatric language means ordinary distress is being medicalised, while the seriously ill are not being heard, says psychologist Lucy Foulkes

Love sometimes wants to do us a great favor: hold us upside down and shake all the nonsense out.

Your love
Should never be offered to the mouth of a stranger,
Only to someone who has the valor and daring
To cut pieces of their soul off with a knife
Then weave them into a blanket
To protect you.

Stay close to any sounds that make you glad you are alive.

Ever since happiness heard your name, it has been running through the streets trying to find you.
I wish I could show you when you are lonely or in the darkness, the astonishing light of your own being.

There are different wells within your heart.
Some fill with each good rain,
Others are far too deep for that

Fear is the cheapest room in the house. I would like to see you living in better conditions.

Even after all this time the sun never says to the Earth, “You owe me”

There is no pleasure without a tincture of bitterness."

Practicing gratitude is not always easy, that’s why it takes practice. The times where it may feel there is less to be thankful for, are the times that we need most to search and acknowledge what we have to be thankful for. Some may have more to be thankful for than others, but the purpose is not to measure your blessings it is to acknowledge that even when things are bad, there is still some good. Darkness is impossible without light. This shift in focus keeps the balance of good and bad so that when things are bad we remain hopeful and when they are good we are appreciative because nothing is permanent. Gratitude reminds us of our strengths, our tools, our resources and fuels our drive to keep going through the tough times and to slow down through the good times.

Nothing resets my mind and my body more effectively than my yoga practice. After periods of stress, worry, overwhelm, those days when it seems almost impossible to take care of yourself as responsibility and life are so demanding of you, that’s when ... yoga!! Even just a few minutes to connect with your breath, listen to your body, stretch and feel can be enough to send the message to your nervous system that it’s ok relax. Easing muscle tension, balancing hormones and calming the senses. Prolonged periods in fight or flight mode can be harmful to your health so it’s essential to recognize and restore when possible. Take a moment, breathe, feel, stretch, release 🙏
