18.01.2022 Modelling self-care is a responsibility we often forget.

17.01.2022 Remember what you say to her... She listens. She watches. She thinks you are beautiful. Stop telling her you are on a diet.... She listens when you say you are fat, ugly or when things are wrong.. as you cry, swear, step on the scale every single day and maybe several times a day and speak badly about yourself. Because in her eyes she will one day remember.. The perfume you wore. The days out to the cinema. Having snowball fights in winter. Picnics in the summer holidays. How you lovingly plaited her hair. NOT the fat stomach, the cellulite, the stretchmarks that you see, or how awful you feel after a "cheat day" or a day you missed the gym. Change your words to "eating healthily" and "eating nutritious food", exercising to be "stronger" and "healthier" instead of diet diet diet and using exercise to punish your body. Because she is listening. She is watching. She is taking it all in. And she will remember... everything Written by Victoria Mitchell Photo credit Meg Gaiger/ Harpyimages @harpyimages on Instagram

07.01.2022 Spilt Milk Psychology Too often we equate emotion regulation with emotional suppression. Teaching emotion regulation skills isn’t about helping people to LOOK okay, it’s helping them BE okay.

06.01.2022 If we want our kids not to lie to us, we have to make it safe for them to tell the truth. This means we have to make it safe for them to lie to us. . It can be ...very challenging when our children lie. It touches a deep place in us. We might feel hurt, betrayed or let down. We might feel like we failed and have a sense of urgency to fix the problem. . Usually our reactions don't inspire our kids to lie to us less. They may become better at it however, so they don't get caught! . Parents will often say to their kids that they don't have to lie to them, that they can always tell them the truth and they won't get in trouble. There is a subtle implication in this message that if they do lie they will get in trouble. . It's strange situation in which we're telling them anything they do we'll be there to support them, but they can never lie to us. . This means that any time if there's any component in what they are doing in which they've lied, they can't trust that we'll be there for them. They can't feel comfortable coming to us because we told them we never wanted them to lie. . it also means all the stuff we told them was safe to tell us actually isn't safe. If there's an exception for one thing, there could very easily be an exception to another. . When I talked to my daughter (now 23) about lying a number of years ago I told her that she never had to lie to me because I would always have her back in every situation. I told her that I was a safe place to share her victories and her mistakes. I told her that she would never receive a consequence or even my disapproval for anything she had done. . I ALSO told her that it would be a good idea for her to lie to me occasionally anyways! Sometimes it's good to keep things to yourself. . Kids lying to their parents is an ancient tradition. It happens all the time and I wouldn't want her to miss out on the experience! . I also told her if she ever did choose to keep something to herself, not to tell me the full story or even tell a direct lie, I would trust her judgment. I know that she had a good reason to do so and I would even be happy she did what she felt was right in that moment. . This way I made it safe for her to always tell me the truth and I made it safe for her to lie. . FREEDOM! . I am pretty sure that she doesn't lie to me very often and I also like to think that she is able to discern when it's appropriate to keep something to herself. . Life is more complicated than "Always tell the truth. Never lie." We don't tell the truth to everybody in every circumstance. It's not always the most effective, safe or even kind thing to do. . The study of when to tell the truth, how much truth to tell, what to keep to ourselves and how to communicate it, is a very delicate thing. It's not simple to understand and even less so to practice. I want my kid to feel safe exploring and learning this concept with me, rather than have me as an obstacle. . One of my one liners is: . "I didn't teach my kid not to lie, I taught her how to lie." . Because she never had to hide where she was going, what she was thinking, what she was feeling or what she was doing, we were always able to explore these things together. . Deep trust is one of the beautiful outcomes of freedom. . To this day I remain her guide. There aren't a lot of 23 year olds that actively seek out and value the wisdom and guidance of their parents without resistance. . This is what I mean in the meme when I say "we have to make it safe for kids to lie to us". We have to become so safe that they lose their fear of being vulnerable to us and lose their resistance to receiving our guidance. . In a safe relationship they'll never hear "I don't trust you because you lied." Those words make us feel judged and wrong. It's very difficult for kids to be vulnerable with their parents when they are afraid they might be made to feel wrong. . I feel that way to in all my relationships. Don't you? . When working with and guiding your kids, consider looking deeper into the idea of truth and falsehood. Examine your value around lying. Are you taking it personally? Are you reacting because of something in your past? Usually when there is tension there are underlying feelings and needs at play. . When we are honest with ourselves about our own stuff it makes it easier not to project it onto our kids. We can then be more present with them without making them feel judged. . The freedom, the choice and safety to tell the truth is something that comes from a connected, trusting relationship. It is a relational and emotional cause and therefore it needs relational and emotional work. . The behavior (the lie) is the effect not the cause. Therefore it doesn't work too try and get kids to change their behavior by telling them what to do and what not to do. Punishing them if they do the wrong thing and rewarding them if they do the right thing isn't appropriate, loving nor effective. . The impulse to tell the truth when there is risk involved does not come from being coerced to fall in line with expectation of an authority figure. Nor from avoiding the feeling that we've let down and disappointed our parents. Punishments and rewards do not inspire the courage that it takes. . Only love and connection inspire that courage. . Can you be that inspiration for your children? I believe you can. . Peace, Vivek See more

When it was about to start he was almost in tears with anxiety, he had his head under a pillow, and was saying he didn't want to do it. 2 hours later, happy kid emerges and says "that was actually pretty good" He didn't tell me much "stop asking questions mum" haha, but said "I had social anxiety, but all of the kids had social anxiety, and when we all realised we all had it, then none of us had it" hooray Thank you so much for creating and holding such a space. I am excited for how this may empower him."
