19.01.2022 Happy days ahead :) #covid_19 #healthprofessionals #mask #newnormal

19.01.2022 First session back at the gym after lockdown restrictions have been eased here in Melbourne. It was sooo good. Somethings come easy but returning to the gym was not going to be one of them, hence the red face and thoughts of not being able to get out of the car. However without starting again to build physical fitness to support mental fitness life maybe more challenging. It’s part of looking after ourselves and doing things to actively keep us mentally and physically fit. Se...lf care is so important as we ease out of restrictions. For some the easing out of restrictions that has evoked feelings of overwhelm, please note nothing has to happen quickly. If you place expectations on yourself, check in to see if that’s what you really want. It’s ok to go slow. Find your own mental, social and physical groove and self care daily. #mentalhealth #stressmanagement #stressrelief #physicalhealth #psychological #wellbeing #wellbeingwednesday See more

18.01.2022 Behind the scenes.... when Jorge, my dog, stops, drops and begins to itch his belly at the moment when I am trying to take photos of Happy the Sad Pony. #lovedogs #bookloversofinstagram #children #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness

18.01.2022 Thursday morning in the office. The masks... at work. They can be uncomfortable; they can fog up your glasses; they can make your nose itchy - don’t sneeze that is not fun. They can make it difficult to see when walking downstairs. Some people struggle to breathe, which is not nice. , The mask can evoke pimple outbreaks but I still would prefer to keep working with these annoyances to reduce our getting sick and making others sick. Take care. #overcovid19 #psychologist #mask

17.01.2022 Trigger having his breakfast: watered down Lucerne, raspberries and chia seeds. He has had some health issues over the last few months, so trying to increase protein, omega 3 and 6 and antioxidants in his diet. What we do for those we love! #triggertheanxioushorse #therapy #horse #equinesofinstagram

16.01.2022 Trauma either developmental, environmental or man-made can complicate our ability to connect with others in terms of being on guard or withdrawing from social interactions. Through awareness of our interpersonal patterns and how they protect us we can move towards healthy safe connection. #interpersonalconnection #safeconnection #awareness #relationships #safety #safetyfirst #mentalhealth #stress #covidnormal #therapy #selfcare #bemindful #bekind #stressmanagement #psychologistofinstgram #psychology #psychologyofstress #therapy #copingwithstress #trauma #psychologistofintragram #therapywithhorses #psychology #anxiety #coping #therapy

14.01.2022 Saturday morning at Harnessing Wellness the Equine Assisted Psychology office. Bailey and Bob mutually grooming each other. These behaviors are an important activity as they help create social bonds and release, "feel good" hormones. #pony #horselovers #equines #equinetherapy #psychology

12.01.2022 Happy the Very Sad Pony and Trigger the Anxious Horse are children’s storybooks gently exploring mental health symptoms and coping strategies. The books are dedicated to the ponies and the horses that work with people to support human wellness. Equines are excellent examples of self-care and masters of awareness and living in the moment. The books are written for all children who would love to have a pony as a friend and hopefully Happy, Trigger, Bob and Bailey can be helpful. . $2 from each sale, until Christmas, goes to Project Hope Horse Welfare Victoria @projecthopehorsewelfare . A horse welfare Victorian organisation that helps rescue neglected and abused horses. #equines #horsesandhumans #equinesofinstagram #books #childrensbooks #childrensbookwriter #psychologist #psychologistsofinstagram

07.01.2022 Nothing like a bit of horse love in the middle of a ground work session. Bob loving Happy with gentle lips I have been doing some ground work with the boys to refresh our working relationship and get the feel for where they are at the moment with various activities. #horses #equinesofinstagram #equinetherapy #equinetherapyhorse #groundwork #therapyponies #psychology #psychologist
