We don't need to fear our negative emotions. We don't need to fight them.

Many of us are continually struggling with the anxious voice in our minds. Worrying thoughts, anxious feelings and fearful imaginings holds us hostage, leading quite often to significant mental and emotional distress. Our desire to escape the grip of anxiety becomes our number one priority, leaving us overwhelmed and exhausted.
Instead of using all of your energy in managing your anxiety or avoiding situations that make you feel anxious, why not explore the idea that maybe you don’t need to struggle but rather focus more on developing a life that you care about.
Explore how to cope more effectively with worries, anxieties and fears and learn to simply experience them as thoughts, feelings, physical sensations and painful memories. Recognise how our minds trap us, keeping us stuck in fear and anxiety and learn ways in which you can nurture your inner capacity for acceptance, compassion and kindness.
For more information on how to end the struggle with anxiety and more towards a more meaningful life you can contact Gael on 087 6577391.

I have discovered many things in my post-recovered years (that is, in the years since my dependence on my eating disordered thoughts and behaviors subsided for a sustained period of time). For instance, I have discovered that sometimes we just hurt. Sometimes we just feel sad. Sometimes we just wake
