24.01.2022 What is RESILIENCE? Heres an entertaining video to help explain it. One of the characteristic flaws of our minds is to exaggerate how fragile we might be. To assume that life would be impossible far earlier than it in fact would be. We imagine that we couldnt live without a certain income or status or health. That it would be a disaster not to have a certain kind of relationship, house or job. This natural tendency of the mind is constantly stoked by life in commercial soci...Continue reading

22.01.2022 When we are facing a crisis of any sort, fear and anxiety are inevitable; they are normal, natural responses to challenging situations infused with danger and uncertainty. Its all too easy to get lost in worrying and ruminating about all sorts of things that are out of your control: what might happen in the future; how events might affect you or your loved ones or your community or your country or the world and what will happen then - and so on. And while its completely n...atural for us to get lost in such worries, its not useful or helpful. Indeed the more we focus on whats not in our control, the more hopeless or anxious were likely to feel. So the single most useful thing anyone can do in any type of crisis - is to: focus on whats in your control.

22.01.2022 Mindfulness is all about being as present as we can, right here, right now. Not off into the future with our thoughts, not bogged down in the past. How much clarity and greater insight into our lives would we have if we could stay longer in the only moment of time that has any relevancy in our lives - right here, right now, the present! http://www.marklockyer.com/blog/the-ravens-eye.htm #mindfulness #awareness #counselling #therapy #MindfulnessExercise #onlinecounselling #therapy #ndis #ndisprovider

21.01.2022 I have never known a moment or event where serving others has not been the answer to all of lifes woes. In this time of Covid-19 I see no reason why this still not be the case. Fear abounds amongst many. But what is that fear? The fear can relate to loss....Continue reading

21.01.2022 ... marklockyer.com To be trapped in our mortal coil, Battling the day to day effects of everything. Money, security, reliance - so many things outside of our control,... Is often a lonely, isolated existence. Requiring motivation from us to contribute, to participate, too oft in a world that is busy, self focused, consumed by its own importance, of which we can all be guilty. Where is the sanctuary? The retreat? It rests beyond self interest. Beyond material gain. It needs to be created and nurtured. With rules stripped bare from those we are accustomed to. To give, to serve, to respect, to love all In an environment that embraces all. From the mountains to the sea. From the sky to the earth. From feathered to the furred. From us to them. Inclusive. Open, warm, considerate, kind, equal. #retreat #sanctuary #counselling #mindfulness #contemplation #silentprayer #ndis

20.01.2022 Just an update on clients I have had the privilege of seeing through the NDIS. I believe because I offer a flexible, person centred approach, Im able to do home visits to support clients who find it difficult to leave home for various reasons. One example is a client with high anxiety who is socially isolated and benefits from our meetings to be able to discuss life, the universe and other things! I am also supporting a client with muscular dystrophy who is needing support ...to help manage friendship issues and anxiety. We meet up via email, Skype and now at his home. I have a client who is unfortunately in prison and I see him in prison to help support him through counselling and social work support. I also offer his mother support. The general theme of what I offer is psychological and social support that is catered to the needs of the client. It can come under the umbrella of therapeutic supports or innovative community support, improved daily living (allied health professional or therapist), improved relationships (appropriate therapist). Feel free to contact me if you are seeking flexible, professional, person centred support for your needs. #ndis #counselling #therapy #disability

20.01.2022 POLIO and NDIS. Flagging a story today in the Age and SMH. For polio victims of the 1950s and 1960s, if you are not registered with the NDIS and are under 65 probably good advice to register. Particularly as there seems to be a stage 2 to polio where other potentially debilitating symptoms appear with age. From the article "The NDIS is one of the greatest social reforms of this century, says St Vincents Hospitals Steven Faux. Its an amazing thing, and amazing for Australia to have done it. But what we do tell everyone under 65, including polio patients, is that they should register for the NDIS now. Even if, at this stage, you only need a new splint every four or five years, your needs may change, and if youre in the system its much easier. Do it now! https://www.smh.com.au//reflect-on-the-greater-collective- #ndis #polio

19.01.2022 marklockyer.com Traveller: What kind of weather are we going to have today? Shepherd: The kind of weather I like. Traveller: How do you know it will be the kind of weather you like?... Shepherd: Having found out, sir, I cannot always get what I like, I have learned always to like what I get. So I am quite sure we will have the kind of weather I like. #counselling #therapy #ndis #melbourne

19.01.2022 If you had 8 rules in life by which to live by, what might they be? Would they be all positive, focusing on all the wonderful things that could be and that you can achieve? Or would they focus and accept your weaknesses and vulnerabilities? What would be the point of focusing on these?... Simply that if you can learn to accept your your weaknesses and vulnerabilities, when they come to visit, as they often do, particularly during harder, more difficult times in life, you are better prepared to manage them. These old friends have visited you many times previously and so your energy when they visit again is not put into trying to change them, make them go away, or despair over them. Your energy instead is used to make the most of the current situation with much less fear, frustration and other unwanted feelings and thoughts that limit us making this present moment, the only one we have, the best moment we could ever have right now! Look at the list detailed in the link below and see if you can openly identify with the rules to live by. www.mindfullyspiritual.com/blog/8-rules-to-live-by.htm #bepresent #awaken #lettinggo #spirit #spirituality #mystic #spiritualcounselling #counselling #silentprayer #silence #contemplation #mindfulness #therapy #covid19 #corona #coronavirus #ndis

18.01.2022 Breaking down the barriers ... "According to the medical model of disability, 'disability' is a health condition dealt with by medical professionals. People with disability are thought to be different to 'what is normal', or abnormal. 'Disability' is seen to be a problem of the individual," the national Australian disability rights and advocacy organisation says. https://www.abc.net.au//lily-wheelchair-disabili/100016840 #disability #ndis #burnie #ulverston #nwtasmania `#northwesttasmania

17.01.2022 Over the next few weeks I thought Id start writing some blogs on the what counselling is about - the counselling process. Different counsellors and therapists have different styles and use different models. I use Mindfulness based practices incorporated into a therapy called Acceptance Commitment Therapy. This is part 1 of the counselling process which begins the journey of unpacking problems that arise in our lives, whether they are short term or long term issues. Happy reading and please feel free to leave some feedback! http://www.marklockyer.com/co/counselling-process-part1.htm #ndis #counselling #therapy #bcpsw #therapeuticsupport

17.01.2022 Love is a paradox. It is everything, truly everything. It is despair and disdain. It is joy and embrace. It is revolt and shock.... It is compassion and care. Surely it is nothing about me. Other than I am a vehicle for love to illuminate and cause me to act, in a way that sheds light on what would otherwise be dark, but of itself, a temple of humility and grace, in a world that can easily overlook the beauty before us. #ndis #disability #love

16.01.2022 Our default state seems to be that we believe we are our thoughts. So if you worry a lot then you become your worry. If you feel guilty a lot then you become your guilt. If you have anxious thoughts a lot you become your anxiety. Mindfulness helps us separate our thoughts from our awareness and allows us to realise we are not our thoughts. We have them all the time but they are not who we are. With autism it could be that our sense of self, our consciousness takes on anothe...r dimension again. Something we mere mortals struggle with. This video possibly highlights that. Jason, as a favour from his coach, instead of being the drinks boy as he usually is, is allowed to play the last 4 minutes of the game - and manages to sink 6 three pointers! http://www.marklockyer.com/blog/autism-and-basketball.htm #counselling #counseling #onlinecounselling #therapy #mindfulness #autism #ndisprovider #NDIS #ndissupport
