Self Care Saturday

When you do something for yourself it isn’t being selfish, I think that’s something that’s very misunderstood.

Self care is very important, for you to be the best you, you need to look after number 1.

When you’re on an airplane and they’re giving you the instructions on what to do if the masks fall down, they tell you to our your one on first before helping assist anyone else.

So think of it less about being selfish and more about being non selfish, it’s about making sure your ok so that you can help others.

It’s important that you make sure you take sometime for yourself, read a book, mediate, just go sit somewhere in silence or to listen to some music you like, what ever you want to do, do it for you.

Mindset Shift Idea

We’re often quick to measure our days by the results of what we’ve achieved, what things we’ve completed and what we’ve still to do.

But if you pause and reflect on the effort instead of the outcome you might feel you’ve accomplished a bit more. Doing this helps shift your mindset from an all or nothing way of thinking to more of a growth mindset. Which then increases your motivation.

It changes how you feel day to day and it can also help reduce anxiety, because you’re no longer chasing the validation from the outcomes.

Choosing effort over outcome means you’re far more likely to continue taking action. Your mind feels it’s been recognised instead of criticised. It’ll help you create a steadier mindset and give you a calmer nervous system.

Today ask yourself
“What did I show up for?”

Then write down one thing that you did well, no matter how big or small.

CONNECTING MIND & BODY

How does anxiety affect your body?

You may experience a churning feeling in your stomach, feelings of light-headed or dizziness. Pins and needles, feeling restless or unable to sit still. Perhaps you get headaches, backache or other aches and pains and you experience faster breathing. Is it a fast, thumping or irregular heartbeat, sweating or hot flushes. Do you have problems sleeping or are you grinding your teeth, especially at night. Is it nausea (feeling sick) or needing the toilet more or less often.

How does it affect your mind!!

feeling tense, nervous or unable to relax, having a sense of dread, or fearing the worst. Feeling like other people can see you're anxious and are looking at you. Maybe you feel like you can't stop worrying, or that bad things will happen if you stop worrying. Do you want lots of reassurance from other people or are you worrying that people are angry or upset with you. Is it thinking a lot about bad experiences, or thinking over a situation again and again. Worrying a lot about things that might happen in the future.

What can I do to help you?

I can stop you worrying about what may happen in the future, help you take back control of those bad experiences so that they are no longer what you focus on. Help you learn to relax more. The list is endless.

You will also take away various tools that you will be able to use when required.

Weekly Affirmation

Most mornings start in the mind. You’re maybe planing the day, worrying, replaying conversations or predicting how the day will go. So before your feet have even hit the floor your thoughts could already be running ahead.

But your breath and your body are always in the present.

So before the day takes over just pause, take a slow breath in…and a longer breath out. The notice where in your body you’re holding any tension. Soften your shoulders and unclench your jaw.

It’s about being present in the moment and coming back to yourself before everything else asks for your attention.

So today as you take that breath use the affirmation
“I begin today connected to my breath and my body”.

When you start the day in your body instead of your thoughts you will feel clearer and steadier and the day can feel more manageable.

There’s no need to rush into the day.

Think how you want to feel

We are all good at focusing on how we DON’T want to feel.

“I don’t want to feel anxious”, “I don’t want to have all these negative thoughts” “I don’t want to be crying all the time”.

Do you ever go into work and talk about the amazing journey you had, or the fantastic breakfast you ate, or how the kids gave you a big hug and told you they love you?

Or do you focus on the things that went wrong. The alarm didn’t go off, you slept in, you had no time for even a coffee and as for the kids, they just kept arguing with you?

By focusing on all that went wrong, your programming your subconscious to look for more things to go wrong.

When you start to focus on how you DO want to feel things change.

Just for today focus on the things that go right, focus on the good things that happened this morning.

It’ll make your day a whole lot better.

THANK YOU

I have made the decision to no longer do the monthly breathwork sessions.

We’ve had a good run of over 2 years but with the numbers dwindling and of course us sometimes having to reschedule days because of other business etc I feel it has run its course.

I want to thank all the regulars who came and of course everyone who has ever attended one of our sessions.

Barry and I will be forever grateful for all the support we have received from you all.

So from the bottom of my heart thank you for supporting us.

21st Self Employed Birthday

I can’t believe I let that slip.

On 05/05/05 I became self employed.

I started off as a childminder looking after 2 little boys 4 days a week and up until lockdown in 2020.

But while I childminded I began to train in child psychology then 13 years ago as a hypnotherapist and 11 years ago as a firewalk instructor.

Many times I almost gave up childminding especially when I didn’t know if after a child had left, typically because they went to school or their school was further away, I’d get anymore. But every year I would I’d get another child or two to replace ones who had moved on.

Whilst I started my training as a therapist I started my own journey of healing from past experiences. This all happened because I went on a course called “Change Your Life in 3 Days” with Paul McKenna, Dr Richard Bandler and my favourite, Michael Neill.

It did exactly what it said on the tin and within a matter of months I signed up to learn Clinical Hypnotherapy because I thought if I could make these changes I could help others do the same.

I often get clients coming to me who are in their 50’s or older wondering if it’s “silly” that they are thinking of changing career paths. My advice is, if it’s something you really want to do, if it excites and scares you and the thought of it also brings you joy, then go for it.

I certainly didn’t think 21 years ago I’d be helping so many people transform their lives.

Here’s to the next whatever many years I stay self employed. I’m certainly not planning on retiring anytime soon as I love what I do.

This photo is of me 21 years ago celebrating my birthday in Australia in the November.

Gratitude

Here’s a nice easy way to rewire your brain to be happy.

It takes approx 21 days to break a habit but it also takes approx 21 days to create a new one, so by writing down 3 different things that you’re grateful for every day for 21 days it’ll help to rewire your brain.

What 3 things are you grateful for today?

I’ll pop mine in the comments.

Mindset Shift Idea

There might be a moment today where you will probably feel a bit discomfort, but instead of pushing it away or finding some way to distract yourself do something a little bit different.

Just pause and stay with the feeling for a moment. Ask yourself
What is this feeling trying to teach me and what strength am I building by staying present?

When we feel discomfort it doesn’t always mean that something is wrong, it could be your body’s way of telling you something is changing.

It might be an old pattern so by asking yourself those questions instead of dismissing it you are making a choice to respond differently and that can feel unfamiliar or maybe even a bit unsettling.

But within that pause something important happens, it helps build a sense of awareness, perhaps even resilience to that old pattern but it also helps to build emotional strength.

So today just notice that moment of discomfort and choose how you respond differently to it.

How does an anxious mind think?

Most of my clients who come for a session to deal with anxiety catastrophise their thinking, so think worse case scenarios.

This turns their minor worries into a major crisis which then creates an intense and persistent fear for them, leaving them in emotional distress.

When this happens they find themselves avoiding situations because they are focused on the negative thoughts rather than looking at the positive, making the anxiety worse.

It’s like they’re stuck on a hamster wheel that they can’t get off.

After just one session using Silent Counselling they begin to notice a difference, their mind has stepped off the wheel and already began to settle down, which leaves them looking forward to the next session to see what else changes.

If you’d like to find out how I can help you change your thinking then drop me a message.

Weekly Affirmation

Anxiety can often feels like it needs immediate action. Like making a quick decision or even saying words quickly so you’re saying something.

We can often feel like we have to think on our feet so we say the first thing that’s in our anxious mind and that’s because it creates a sense of urgency, even when there isn’t one.

Reacting comes from that place and it’s usually driven by fear.

But responding comes from a moment of pause, of awareness and of choice.

Think of it like a flying kite.

When the wind picks up you don’t panic and pull the string in every direction as it would make it unstable. You steady your hands, feel the tension then make small controlled adjustments.

So this weeks affirmation is

“I trust myself to respond rather than react.”

Your thoughts and emotions can be like that wind. Rising, pulling and shifting, but remember you’re the one holding the string.

So take a breath before you reply to a message, or give yourself sometime to think before you make a decision or even noticing what it is you feel without acting on it straight away.

There’s no need to react to every gust, just guide yourself through it.

That pause you take is you taking control.
