Sometimes we have to do hard things. Other times we choose to do them.
The common denominator is that we are showing our children that we CAN DO hard things! And so can they!!!!!

Spent some time with R today, who had some art homework left to complete and asked if we could have an art and chat session.

Off I went armed with my diamond art which I managed to finish!
R completed their homework and we had a good chat and a few laughs throughout.

This is just one of the reasons I love mentoring. ❤️

Back to the classroom for me today!
The beginning of the end!!!!!

This marks the start of the last 2years of study for me untill I am a qualified counsellor 😍

It is unknowingly such a long training path, people underestimate the time, knowledge and effort it takes to train in counselling.

I'm so excited to be offering this service in the not too distant future 😍

My therapy today consisted of going to b&m and buying candles I have absolutely no room for! 🤷🏼‍♀️

Sometimes you just gotta do what makes you happy 😜

A client I saw last night had been using a paint by numbers to distract them and regulate them when overwhelmed. It reminded me of how in COVID I became obsessed with diamond art as it was something I could immerse myself in. I knew I had one lying around unopened. I found it!
3hours later it's 11pm and I realise I should probably go to bed!!!

Busy hands, quiet mind ❤️❤️

Sometimes we need to remember the whole picture rather than just the present image! ❤️

S E N S O R Y T A L K !

So as I was pondering the aisles in my spontaneous late night shopping spree my eyes fell upon this beauty.

I instantly fell in love, I loved the bumps and details and let's face it - it's very esthetically pleasing 😍

I make a cup of tea to sit and enjoy. I CANNOT DRINK IT! 😩😭

The sound it makes as the spoon scrapes the bottom of the cup as I stir it, the feel of the clumpy rim, the feel of the material when it hits my teeth. I hate it! Sensory overload.

And I am devastated, as to look at I love it!

This has ruined my day - my expectations and what I had imagined was so so far from reality.

You may think - it's just a mug, a cup of tea, get over it! But to adjust from expectation to reality is hard regardless of how big or small something may be.

I am an adult, who has skills and a catalogue of strategies to deploy when things deregulate me, yet I still feel out of whack.

Imagine someone who dosent quite understand why a mug is having such an impact on them, or someone who dosent have the skills to regulate themselves to stop it from derailing their day.

Take time to understand you child alongside them understanding themselves.❤️

Pic of Thursday's double rainbow which spiritually symbolizes good fortune, a strengthened divine promise, guidance, or transformation.
And often signifies that one is on the right path, encourages perseverance, and can be seen as a reassuring message of guidance and protection from a higher power. 💪🏼

Happy Sunday ❤️

Remember we offer free introductory sessions to meet your young person and discuss plans and goals. They can get to know their mentor at their pace to allow them to feel comfortable around them. Also allowing the mentor to learn all about the young person and acknowledge their strengths and drive.

I think this young persons strength is drawing!
