25.01.2022 Get a head start on your plans for 2021. Read my blog post at https://www.kyliebellcounselling.com.au//jumping-on-the-fr

25.01.2022 Busy working mothers usually have to choose from a number things they would like to do for themselves. Sleep, getting exercise a few times a week, a lazy walk on the beach or at the mall. A busy schedule won’t allow for all of these things, all the time. But choose one and commit to it. Put yourself and your ‘me’ time first so that you can better look after your family and be more effective at work.

25.01.2022 The best preparation for tomorrow, is doing your best today. Have a good day!

25.01.2022 I just sent this off to a couple of people I know. Perhaps you will get something from it also https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=206WtwEyqzg

24.01.2022 What small steps have you taken that deserve a pat on the back/fist pump?

23.01.2022 Love this ! Take note !!

22.01.2022 Love yourself first and everything else falls in line. Lucille Ball

22.01.2022 After all, not liking yourself is so exhausting....

22.01.2022 Feeling anxious about your Next Big Thing? Look for the opportunities, not the problems.

22.01.2022 Today could be the day you take the first small step toward your best life. Manifest it.

22.01.2022 As we head into the weekend heres an article encouraging us to rest for a while. The (evidence based) key to resilience is trying really hard, then stopping, recovering, and then trying again. https://hbr.org//resilience-is-about-how-you-recharge-not-

21.01.2022 I read some research which said that an emotion lasts 30-60 seconds - the wave of the emotion peaks like an ocean wave and then subsides in around this amount of time. That was a helpful idea - it helps put the notion of a really horrible emotion into perspective and makes it seem more manageable. If I can wait out the worst before acting then the emotions are not driving my behaviour.

21.01.2022 What a fabulous poem to reflect on. Putting everything in perspective because theres nearly always a way to see your circumstances in a different light. Go well !!

20.01.2022 This is so true. Big life transitions and potholes in the road can make us stumble and fall. Its whos around to give you a hand up when youre down that you realise are your tribe, your tried and true pals.

20.01.2022 We can all lift each other up and improve the mental health in those around us.

20.01.2022 I read this article and right away started thinking about all the working parents who are working from home or juggling the commute to work with getting their children to school or day care - if their area is not shut down due to Covid 19. The article mentions sleepless and fatigue: waking up after a good night of sleep yet still feeling tired and run down. Not to mention as though its groundhog day. Again. And social withdrawal. Who hasnt been there: the idea of going... to the Friday sundowner or even getting on another Zoom chat with your girlfriends is just too much. These are often things that we dismiss as "just life", "just a bit stressed". But maybe they shouldnt be so quickly dismissed. If you are tired all the time or more grumpy and snappy than usual, perhaps you need some support. There are many many ways to get such support. Talking to a mental health professional who is neutral, unbiased and supportive can make a difference. In the meantime, enjoy this read and see if you can make a plan to refill your cup. https://www.hrmonline.com.au//spotting-the-red-flags-of-p/

19.01.2022 Down to earth advice and practical ideas on how to respond when someone you love is having a serious meltdown... https://kylarosesims.wordpress.com//when-your-partner-has/

19.01.2022 Hey everyone, things arent bleak for me, as such, but they are a bit one sided. I have one eye taped shut after some minor surgery and the other eye will be dealt with today. So posts here from yours truly may be thin on the ground for a week or so. My hope for you: lift each other up, straighten each others crowns, watch your thoughts and weed out the unhelpful ones, remember how awesome you are in all the things that you do - big and small, every day. Regards, Kylie

18.01.2022 I hope you grow into yourself and realise how awesome you are xx

18.01.2022 I think of emotions as serving a purpose. If they were redundant then evolution would phase them out, right? So anger, sadness, guilt, boredom - they all have a purpose. We just need to give ourselves space and patience to explore what is the purpose of our current emotion. https://tinybuddha.com//when-you-feel-bad-about-feeling-s/

16.01.2022 Anywhere dry and warm ... with coffee !!

16.01.2022 Hows your day going? Things getting you down - does it all seem a bit difficult. Yep I get you. And from within your own perspective it IS tough and relentless. My problems and challenges seem so immovable some days. And then I saw this.... And I felt sheepish about my own troubles and incredibly inspired by these fabulous women. Heres to a bit of inspiration in your day https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wy1Sx5JLNxo

14.01.2022 November 25 has been the international day for the elimination of violence against women since 1981. The focus has broadened to encompass the elimination of gender-based violence. In Australia, the statistics of violence against women are breathtaking and shameful. 1 in 4 (23%) of women have experienced physical or sexual violence by an intimate partner since the age of 15. In Australia, one woman per week is murdered by her current or former partner. Read that again - it...'s not a typo. One Woman Per Week is Murdered by a Current or Former Intimate Partner. We can change these statistics. We can learn more about why gender-based violence is so widespread, we can ask those we know if they are ok and we can call out behaviors and attitudes that feed sexist attitudes and gender-based violence.

13.01.2022 Yep, perfectionism doesnt really do much for anyone, does it?

12.01.2022 Ladies, most of you have no idea how beautiful you are. The true essence of beauty is loving all the perfect imperfections. Do not become disconnected from the truth of your beauty. Just be YOU

12.01.2022 If you have a teenager in your life there may be times when you feel clueless about how to support them if theyre feeling low. Sadness, irritability and worry are a normal part of being human and these feelings usually pass. In fact, experiencing sadness and worry and recovering from them helps build resilience. So difficult feelings arent something we should try and avoid at all times (even if we could!). Teenage depression often shows up more as crankiness and irrit...ability than sadness or the blues. If you think that your teens anxiety, worry or anger is getting out of hand a good first step is to call BeyondBlue on 1300 224 636 or eheadspace on 1800 650 890.

09.01.2022 Follow these tips to invest in your mental wellbeing in 2021. :)

09.01.2022 In thinking about working parents - the demands on your time and attention are never ending. When youre at work youre distracted by thinking about your kids - when youre at home with the family the lure of the phone to check the work emails is bewitching. I dont know if theres really an answer to achieve total balance between all the parts of our working mum lives. Mindfulness, though, could at least help us get the most out of the moment. "You need time in your sche...dule just for you; to replenish yourself. But time with your child can also replenish you, as long as youre fully present with no agenda, just enjoying the creative act of connecting and playing. Resist the call of the to-do list; it will be there after the kids are in bed. Remember that once your childs cup is filled, hell be less needy and more cooperative. Remind yourself that youre engaged in the greatest possible creative act -- Helping your child blossom. " https://www.ahaparenting.com//how_to_love_being_with_your_

09.01.2022 Calm in 3 minutes: Take a long, slow breath in through your nose, first filling your lower lungs, then your upper lungs. Hold your breath to the count of "three." Exhale slowly through pursed lips, while you relax the muscles in your face, jaw, shoulders, and stomach.

08.01.2022 If nervousness and worry about what other people think of you, get in the way of really connecting with others - a quick remedy is to mindfully focus on the other person. What colour are their eyes, what accent do they have, what are their hands doing, how close/far away are you from them and how does that affect your perspective? How are they standing or sitting - still, shuffling, swaying, fidgeting? This is just to increase your curious noticing of them, not to judge or criticise. And when you have really focused on the other person... what has happened to your self consciousness? Did it fade away for a couple of seconds ??

07.01.2022 A shout out to the working mothers. On the days when you have given your all. On the days when you have nothing left. On the days when you feel like you wont make it through to bedtime. On the days when youre physically drained and emotionally empty. ... On the days when you ask yourself "Am I enough? Am I getting this parenting thing even partly right?" On the days when you dont want the alarm to go off and do it all over again. Those are the days to do what you can and to know that what ever you do is good enough for today. Whatever thing that gets half done or not done at all. You have done your best. You are still wonderful. See more

07.01.2022 What a fabulous poem! It makes me realise how much I lose when my mind tells me that Im not good enough compared to others! Thanks for sharing Sally Jones

06.01.2022 Are you having a very mediocre (read total crap) day? Everything seems to be going wrong? No one really listening to you or understanding what youre trying to say? This day will pass. Breathe. Find a moment alone if you can. Get through the next 15 minutes, then the next... You can do this

06.01.2022 Hello all and happy weekend to you ! An article here about accessing mental health support in many different ways. https://theconversation.com/5-ways-to-get-mental-health-hel

06.01.2022 Ahh relationships. So wonderful, so difficult, so essential. A terrific website that helps unravel some of the tricky bits... http://lovegoodbadugly.com/

06.01.2022 One thing I really enjoy about working with people is that we share common themes of being human yet those themes are expressed so uniquely in each individual person. Take being a working mother for example. Working mums share many, many common issues. And they have a unique way that those issues play out in their lives depending on hundreds of different factors. The below link is a fresh take on how a common theme can be expressed in so many ways. It made me smile - I h...ope it makes you smile too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-WetycSTI9I

05.01.2022 If meditate seems like too big a task, call it: sit still for 5 mins. Thats all you need to do: sit still and pay attention to your breath. Its not just the sitting still which is so effective: its also that you are deliberately taking time out of your busy schedule (all your doing for others) just for YOU.

05.01.2022 I find that some of the most interesting people I know have a fascination with stuff thats way off beam, dont you ?

04.01.2022 May your coffee (or wine) be stronger than your feistiest child. And may your patience persist like dried weet-bix in a cereal bowl. Heres to the weekend !!

04.01.2022 Have you noticed this also? That tiny word "but" makes such an impact, doesnt it?

02.01.2022 After all those years of hearing "Im not thin enough, not smart enough, not pretty enough, not xxxx enough" dont you think nows the time to say "Im me and Im enough" ?

01.01.2022 How many of us feel this way? Trying to be a mother as if we dont work and a worker as if we arent a mum. The expectations can be suffocating, cant they ??
