24.01.2022 Life is more complex than what this picture describes. Many of those who sit and feel sad are just short of personal resources to find their way upward and onward. Working with a counsellor you can often discover new options to consider.

23.01.2022 Question what drives you to always have to be right.

22.01.2022 Sometimes we hold back from striving for something marvellous because we say we dont know how. Just make the commitment, just say yes, and watch the opportunities present themselves.

22.01.2022 Its interesting to see the same, or similar, things happen to a group of people and yet each person will respond in their own, unique, way. Our reactions come from our previous life experiences, our beliefs, thoughts, and how we view ourselves and how we view the world.

21.01.2022 Think carefully about your choices. Moving purposefully and consistently in the right direction will prove more successful than moving rapidly in the wrong direction.

21.01.2022 Sometimes we let others talk us out of taking the very action that will release us from our own limiting beliefs. We are the experts of our own life. We should listen to ourselves more often.

21.01.2022 Some of my clients present with great sadness when things arent going their way - when they have to confront work, family, relationship, health, or financial issues. But the reality is that life is full of ups and downs - the skill is how to fully enjoy everything and everyone when things are great and how to show resolve, resilience and creativity when things arent going well.

19.01.2022 Social media teaches us to compare ourselves to others. That approach has such negative effects on people, especially todays young people. Instead of comparing yourself to random people on social media find happiness and inspiration by focusing on improving yourself, day by day, and watch how brilliantly things change for you. Feel free to share this post to get the message in front of the young people who need to understand it

17.01.2022 While youre working through your challenging thoughts and feelings its important to step back and see that there other wonderful things to be grateful for that are in your life at the same time.

15.01.2022 Its often difficult to see the light at the end of the tunnel when youre in its darkest part. But sometimes that light is just around the next bend, which might be right in front of you. Giving up is a choice but so is pushing on and asking for support.

14.01.2022 A great thing to remember. The choice is yours and you dont have to make the decision on your own - if you feel the need and have the courage to ask for support then youll find its close by.

14.01.2022 There is plenty of research evidence around that confirms that acts of service for others improves our own well-being.

13.01.2022 When we change our relationship with our difficult thoughts and feelings we can reconnect to our values and dreams, and to what brings us joy.

13.01.2022 Too often we seek validation from others even though we know that no-one knows us as well as we do. Its important to know if weve done a great job or that we could do better rather than rely on the judgement of others - they dont know us as well, and they dont care about us as much as we should about ourselves

13.01.2022 It pays to take the time to think about who you turn to as a confidant or partner.

10.01.2022 Revising Bowen therapy fundamentals of why relationships are hard - were trying to balance our desire for togetherness with our need for individuality. Plus my desire for fresh air and watching the birds feed.

10.01.2022 So often were in a hurry to find what will make us happy - a great relationship, a good job, a new way of looking at life. But remember the expression time is that thing that stops everything from happening at once. Slow down and smell the roses.

09.01.2022 Generational change can start with you

09.01.2022 Its very rare that success comes easily or quickly. You always have the choice to give up when things are not turning out the way youd like, but re-energising and persisting are the keys to reaching the summit of your dreams.

09.01.2022 Sometimes just looking at your current challenge in a new way can change everything for you.

08.01.2022 How often do you hold yourself back by not giving yourself permission to even try? Be brave! Teach your children the same thing.

07.01.2022 Now that the initial grieving of what was "normal" has passed, things are settling down - and I do believe that we are doing better than we think we are. Well done us!!

06.01.2022 Less talk, more action - makes a difference and builds trust

05.01.2022 Set the expectation that life is not always good, or fair! That way you wont be disappointed when things dont go the way youd planned.

05.01.2022 Learn to validate your own feelings, thoughts, behaviours, and values. No-one knows you as well as you do!

05.01.2022 Very sound advice. But sometimes its a challenge to tame your thoughts and tame your words. If you find this confronting and have the courage to seek support youll find that help is close by.

05.01.2022 Set the expectation that life is not always good, or fair! That way you won’t be disappointed when things don’t go the way you’d planned.

04.01.2022 Depression is such a sad and dark place to visit. Many people benefit from short-term medication. But very often just doing things in a slightly different way, a way that focuses on others and on reconnecting to things that bring us joy, can change our mood in a very positive way.

04.01.2022 Immersing yourself in your favourite hobby is often an excellent way of living in the present moment, away from the guilt, blame, and judgement of the past and away from the anxiety, worry, and fear of the future.

03.01.2022 Im inspired to share this by the clients Ive seen again this week who showed, in the last two weeks, the courage to take this idea on board. It was so exciting to see what amazing shifts theyve made in such a short time.

03.01.2022 It is so often the case that we wear ourselves out trying to make our difficult thoughts and feelings go away without realising that they are, so often, not in our sphere of control to fix.

03.01.2022 With proper support and committed determination, most people can look forward to a brighter future

01.01.2022 Stay focussed on your present moments and watch magic happen.
