23.01.2022 Wishing you all a lady bug luck Weekend.

22.01.2022 One of the most often asked questions in therapy is; Can counselling help me? The answer is yes.

21.01.2022 There is a story about a woman who visited the Buddha while deep in sadness and despair. She asked why she had to face such hardship and loss. In response, the ...Buddha asked her to go and get a grain of rice from each house in the village in which no loss had occurred or tears had been shed. She went from house to house, and after a week returned with an empty bowl. In realizing that she was not alone, she was transformed. Her suffering, which once caused her to feel isolated and hopeless, now became a gateway to compassion and connection. Awareness of collective suffering reduces our isolation. We must also keep in mind that each individual’s experience of suffering is unique...we cannot compare. Instead, we must lean in and listen. Everyone has a story. Listening as an art form awakens profound experiences of the self and soul, offering a portal that can awaken a transformational experience of connection to others and the world. Listen for the emotional meanings conveyed by others. Listen for what is not being said. Listen inside of the space between words. -- Dr Arielle Schwartz (from her book, The Complex PTSD Workbook.) art | Ikenaga Yasunari

17.01.2022 Do you get nervous and go into self-blame when someone you love says; Can I talk to you about something? There are two parts to a conversation, the listener and the sharer and each have a job in this interaction.... Next time you are a listener, try just listening without taking anything on or blaming yourself and say I hear you to the sharer. The sharer try letting go of a response from the listener and be content that you’ve made yourself known to the other person by saying thank you.

10.01.2022 What do you need? It’s a question I ask a lot in a therapy session and it is often met with ‘I don’t know what I need’. Needs and wants are closely related and are challenging to understand which is which. Being busy and feeling overwhelmed with the many jobs vying for your attention it’s hard to connect with what you need. ... A need comes first and is basic like I’m stressed and need some time out. A want is a choice or a desire such as I’m stressed (need) and I want to go for a walk (choice). Needs can be physical, emotional, intellectual and spiritual. As you go about your day, a great internal question to ask yourself is; What do I need right now?

02.01.2022 Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate. -C.G. Jung... Art by Catrin Welz-Stein

02.01.2022 Pause. Look behind the behaviour. Respond to the feeling. Meet the need. Pause and respond, a good mantra to hold.

01.01.2022 What qualities do you offer when someone’s sharing a problem? One of the benefits of sharing something troubling is it lets the other person know how you’re feeling.
