21.01.2022 The habit should be a specific action that you can do. In my case, the habit was ‘a plank a day,’ not ‘make my core stronger’. While it can be tempting to resolve to ‘be kinder,’ ‘learn a new skill,’ ‘read more,’ and so on, those are destined to fail because they don’t describe clearly what you are going to do about it.

20.01.2022 What assumptions would you like to challenge?

20.01.2022 (Psychotherapy Central)

20.01.2022 "Some of the psychologists I spoke to say that many of their clients just prefer to engage over the phone because it can be less confronting for them, and may make it easier for them to open up about how they have been feeling," she says. "Not being able to be seen, some of the psychologists reported that was an unforeseen benefit."

18.01.2022 Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are the single greatest unaddressed public health problem facing society today. Try to stay unemotional watching this heart-wrenching video called Step Inside The Circle. May the world continue to become a more compassionate place.

18.01.2022 How can you regain someone's trust if you have shattered their dreams or chronically ignored their needs? Dr Rachel shares an anecdote about a couple trying to rebuild trust in their relationship and how they embraced the Islands Metaphor to listen non-defensively and begin to heal the hurt. Even if you get very defensive at times, it is possible to learn the skills of distress tolerance and empathy. Access the TED talk that was the inspiration for Rachel's Islands Metaphor here: https://www.youtube.com/watch

18.01.2022 A very thought provoking piece of writing from Whitney Gaffari Coaching. We'd be interested to hear what you think about it in the comments below

14.01.2022 A quote from a client just this morning who had gained much wisdom and compassion from coming out the other side of her struggles: "What a valuable resource our suffering turns out to be! Does this resonate for you? (Dr Rachel)

13.01.2022 (My Self-Love Supply)

13.01.2022 We'd love to know what you think of this quote from Marshall Rosenberg. What role does anger play in your life?

12.01.2022 "Not only are we internally dealing with the most horrifying reality we could imagine, but we find ourselves almost pariahs amongst some friends, extended family and work colleagues who don't know, and sometimes don't seem to want to know, how they can help us."

12.01.2022 At its essence, the couple bubble is an agreement to put the relationship first. It’s a safe zone, where either partner can find relief, comfort, and security. It’s an us against the world mentality. In his book, Wired for Love, Stan Tatkin explains that we can have this safe zone with our parents, friends, siblings, or as a couple. The couple bubble, Tatkin says, is a mutually constructed membrane, cocoon, or womb, that holds the couple together and protects each partner from outside elements. If you and your partner are struggling, marathon couples therapy can help. Find out more at https://northbrisbanepsychologists.com.au/marathon-therapy/

12.01.2022 What do you think when someone gives you advice or an opinion that you didn’t ask for? Does it ever work? (Whitney Gaffari Coaching)

12.01.2022 A very insightful graphic from thebehaviourtherapist

11.01.2022 A sweet story from Dr Rachel: I was doing a marathon couples session today and I drew on the whiteboard a simple picture representing two islands joined by a bridge. I drew stick figures on each island and explained that in relationships we must cross over into the other person’s world; into their world of pain and feelings and needs and hopes and dreams and desires. We must consent to leave our island for a while. With this couple, there had been emotional infidelity and he... was starting to feel impatient with apologising, feeling stuck and remorseful. I explained to the guilty partner that, for now, the equation was lopsided. That he would need to travel over to her world (of feelings and needs) much more and stay there longer. He’d had his needs met through the emotional affair and given little (if any) regard to her needs along the way. I said it might be a while until she could travel over to his island. He looked quite uncomfortable. Suddenly he stood up, grabbed my whiteboard pen and drew a black arrow pointing in her direction from his stick figure and drew a smiley face on her head. Then he sat down and said I get it. I can do that. I just want her to feel happy again. Also you’re bad at drawing!

05.01.2022 "Since they view emotions so differently, Mike and Stacey both feel misunderstood when these darker emotions come up for either of them. To understand each other better and create a more connected relationship, Dr. Gottman suggests using a weekly State of the Union meeting to start building the skills of attunement."

05.01.2022 Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria is often associated with ADHD. Talking to the person or a trusted third party can help you gain perspective when you are feeling anxious about criticism. While not directly related to RSD, Dr Rachel's blog post reminds us it is OK to make mistakes https://northbrisbanepsychologists.com.au/making-mistakes/
