Some days we wake up feeling demotivated and sad. Not necessarily because of anything, just simply because. It’s quite likely life has been too busy and you’re depleted.

What not to do:
- screens! Scrolling is no good for the mind of body. It will only increase unwanted feelings.
- reach for alcohol, coffee, sugar, drugs. Temporary releases that make things feel worse later.

What to do:
- Take a shower, put on comfy clothes. Brush your hair and teeth.
- Get outside. Walk; even if it’s around the permitter.
- Ask: what am I feeling? Where is it in my body? Give a colour/ sound to it.
- Use technique: take in a very deep breath; hold and freeze that feeling. Pull in the feeling you want instead. Breathing out, let that feeling fill you from top to bottom.
- Keep walking; notice colours, sounds, shapes.
- Think of ‘one day’: the joy your heart seeks. Indulge in it.

One foot in front of the other. Breathe. Dream forward.

Online posts don’t replace therapy or professional consults. Suicidal thoughts need assessment. Local emergency rooms and clinics can assist. Alternatively seek online platforms such as Lifeline or SADAG.

Your presence is the best present!

During the festive period, we should make an effort to play! Whether it’s baking or a good old game of garden cricket, our children remember the laughter. Time spent together is the most precious gift. Stuff breaks, becomes outdated, but memories of people last in our hearts. They shape our future selves too.

Your presence really is the best present when you’re fully engaged to share love and laughter with all.

Firstly these sort of videos do not replace professionally assessment; that is always needed by an appropriately qualified and registered healthcare professional. Professional diagnosis is essential in my professional opinion.

BrainWorking Recursive Therapy is a brain based therapy that works before conscious awareness. Instead of wearing gloves or having to use a distraction or relaxation technique, you get to choose a replacement and the BWRT practitioner uses the technique to help you put it in place. Next time your brain uses your replacement instead of the old behaviour. Sometimes targeting of anxiety and or traumas are needed too.

BWRT is a short term therapy technique that works quickly to eliminate your therapy targets. www.shelleyhall.co.za for more info and to see if this therapy is right for you.

🤣🤣🤣If the loo doesn’t help, there’s therapy. 🤣🤣🤣 (cheeky of me but who doesn’t need a laugh at this time of year!!)

I’m not talking the usual type of reframing to positives, breathing exercises or discussing the past for hours. Not to say those don’t always help but that a therapy based in neuroscience is proving more effective and faster for most of my clients.

BrainWorking Recursive Therapy BWRT doesn’t require us to find the source of your problems. It eliminates a lot of ‘chatter’ to allow you to quickly target and make change. It’s often felt immediately in the session. BWRT works online, with adults and children too. I guide the process but there are no suggestions; all changes come from you.

Of course I’m a well experienced clinical psychologist and have extensive training in several forms of therapy. I assess and give you the options to choose from. If this sounds like something you’d like to explore in the new year do check out my website: www.shelleyhall.co.za or www.bwrt.org

Wishing you and yours a very merry festive break!

A quick easy read that will give you all you need to chat all things Roblox over dinner tonight! https://klikd.co.za/download/?resources=roblox

Thanks Klikd 🥰

Roblox is rolling out an AI-powered age-check system that asks our kids to submit a selfie so the platform can estimate their age and then restrict chatting with age-inappropriate peeps...you know the kind, chats between kids and adults.

This is a big step forward in safety because it makes it harder for older users to pretend they’re younger just by typing in a date. At the same time, we all know that no system is perfect - predators might still use other kids’ pictures or fake accounts. So damn, we still have to pair this tool with good chats and some parental supervision! Check out our good to go, (free) downloadable ebook on Roblox, the good, the bad, the fugly.
