Repost thank you for this helpful guide to regulating our emotions… In therapy, we talk about our triggers and challenges and our emotional responses to them. This happens no matter what age we are. It is always a challenge and a conscious practice. 💙 Heather

I created this guide because so many of us are trying to manage intense emotions without ever learning how. We’re told to “calm down” or “take a breath,” but when your nervous system is activated, those things aren’t always accessible, especially if you don’t know what your body actually needs.

Knowing how to self-regulate doesn’t mean that you will be calm and collected all the time. It’s about understanding your system, noticing what state you’re in, and learning how to support yourself through it, in a way that’s safe and manageable.

Thank you for putting in simple terms words therapists may use in session.

This provides a great explanation of terms that we use often to help our clients navigate tough relationships and situations. By working on these, we get to a better place. 💙Heather

Do any of these resonate with you? Let’s talk about it… 💙 Heather

Maybe now is the time to create space in therapy on how to heal from critical parents, recognize some of these behaviors and decide how you want to be your best self today.

Thank you .sanders.therapy for this great book list!

Read it again. and again. and again.

👉👉Anxiety often tells us stories that aren’t true. It whispers doubts, plants fears, and makes us believe we’re not capable. But here’s the truth: you are stronger than you think, braver than you feel, and more capable than you know.

❣️Every time you step outside your comfort zone, you defy anxiety’s limits. Each small victory builds a foundation of resilience.

❗️Remember, your anxiety doesn’t define you—it only tries to. You hold the power to rewrite those narratives and create a life where your dreams outweigh your fears.

❣️Let’s celebrate our courage and resilience today. Share a moment when you did something your anxiety said you couldn’t. 💪🌟

💙 yes you can ! Heather

“People-pleasing is driven by fear, not love” says me.

Authentic acts of kindness, on the other hand, are driven by compassion and love.

So you can see how people-pleasing can complicate romantic relationships, yeah?

Attempting to avoid conflict, rejection, or anger by being overly agreeable comes at a high cost... being authentically known...

Thank you for such a great image.

People pleasing comes up a lot in session and is something so helpful to recognize, discuss and work on with your therapist 💙 heather
