Happy New Year!

Are you a New Year's Resolutions person?

This is a controversial topic, as many people consider the New Year's Resolutions meaningless and silly. They are often regarded as goals likely to fail.

Regardless if you are someone who likes to set goals (or resolutions) at the beginning of a New Year, or you prefer to set an intention for the year ahead, this post may hopefully inspire you by highlighting the benefits of setting goals at the beginning of a new era, as well as the reasons that many of us may fail in this process- and how you can succeed this time.

Setting goals may be especially relevant in the times we are living now, since many of us wish for just a better new year, and do not hold very high expectations.

If you are eager and curious of developing a Happy New You this year, this post is for you!

Did you set your New Year’s resolutions yet? Let's explore the 10 most common reasons they fail, and how YOU can succeed this year!

Many people find Christmas stressful for a number of reason, and regression when back at the family home is one of them.

Regression is the phenomenon of travelling back in time, once back with your family - as if time has not passed.

And even if you have to expect to regress, there are still things to be done, in order to have a nice Holiday with your family.

As a therapeutic Christmas gift, I have put together a Mindful Survival Guide for the Holidays, to help you ensure that your Christmas be Merry and Bright!🎄✨❤️

When you get to your parental home for the holidays, you may find yourself regressing to older versions of Yourself and patterns of behaviour.

We all live by a deeply rooted list of shoulds, rules that guide our behaviour and lives.

Yet, are these shoulds always helpful? Sometimes they may be holding you back, strengthening the voice of your Inner Critic.

It may benefit you to just drop the shoulds, and focus on your next steps, with compassion about your shortcomings.

Our "shoulds" sometimes limit and control us, keeping us away from the Present moment...

In fact, overprotective parenting does more harm than good, and this is the focus of this post.
