11.01.2022 FREE YOUR CHILDREN FROM YOU. "Perhaps the key measure of successful parenting, despite whatever mistakes we have made, is whether our children really understand that we love them as they are, not as we wish them to be. This rather simple test is much harder to meet than it first appears. To be able to pull back our expectations of them - that they make us proud of ourselves, that they ratify our religious, political and cultural values - first requires that we are really add...ressing the task of our own individuation and not imposing our unfinished business on them. Jung's observation that the greatest burden the child must carry is the unlived lives of the parents is chilling, frankly, for it puts all the responsibility for growing up back on me. In order to be a good parent, apparently I have to be a more evolved person in the first place. I truly believe that the history of the world would change if we could just imagine parents healthy enough, wise enough, mature enough, evolved enough to say to their growing children something like the following: "Who you are is terrific. You are here to become yourself as fully as you can. Always weigh the costs and consequences of your choices as they affect others, but you are here to live your journey, not someone else's and certainly not mine." I believe that this message, however worded, would change the world because we would not have so many damaged people making their own babies only to pass on their pathology. We would not have so many people turned violent because of the rage of their own troubled souls. We would not have so many self-defeating, avoidant, drug-addled, and unlived lives if people were not so estranged from themselves. We would not have so many mindless folk who drift to politicians and preachers who offer them simplistic solutions to life's complex problem, give them people to blame rather than holding themselves accountable, and who give them ideologies to embrace rather than the legitimate risk and reward that living their own journey provides. If we are over going to free our children, as we wished to be freed from the web our parents may have spun for us, we have to generate our own lives. And if we really do love our children, as we profess, then we have to free them of our expectations that they live like us." ~ James Hollis, PhD.

07.01.2022 Further to the introduction of online appointments we now have MOBILE SELF CHECK-IN. You must have downloaded the HOTDOC app to your smart phone to be able to use this facility. If you have booked an online appointment you will get a notification that you are able to now check in. This may be while you are getting out of your car but will only work a certain distance from the clinic. Once you have verified your details and you get confirmation that you have been checked in... you can take a seat. Otherwise you will be asked to present to reception. You will also be advised where you are in the queue to see your favourite doctor. If you have any problems with checking in on your smart phone then please let reception know. They will be happy to help you. Otherwise you can phone us on 07 5443 9455 or visit our website www.medicineonsecond.com.au

04.01.2022 NAIDOC stands for National Aborigines and Islanders Day Observance Committee. Its origins can be traced to the emergence of Aboriginal groups in the 1920s which sought to increase awareness in the wider community of the status and treatment of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians. NAIDOC Week celebrations are held across Australia each year to celebrate the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. NAIDOC is celebrated n...ot only in Indigenous communities, but by Australians from all walks of life. Medicine on Second have a commitment to support the physical, social and emotional wellbeing of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander patients of all ages. We provide a thorough Health Check which is available every 9 months and will be bulk billed for all our ATSI patients. If you identify as ATSI and have not had your Health Check speak with your GP today.

04.01.2022 Funny name for a podcast, but an excellent, no-nonsense discussion about sleep. "Over the past decade, there’s been an emerging focus on the importance of sleep. Thousands of books and articles have been put out which drive home just how central sleep is in our mental and physical health. This emphasis on sleep has had the positive effect of motivating people to better prioritize it. But, there’s been a downside to all this sleep talk as well: people are getting more stressed out if they’re not getting the kind of sleep they think they’re supposed to." https://www.artofmanliness.com/articles/get-better-sleep/
