When we show compassion towards others it is an action of feeling. We focus on understanding their energy and we sit with them.

We are present. We are both vulnerable.

Compassion is seeing the beauty in others and their story and to shed light on their darkness. When we connect in this space, it becomes a physical representation of healing and loving energies. This builds our trust, connection, vulnerability and relationship with that person.

When we spend time with ourselves we need to do the same. We need to be in a space that encourages us to plug into ourselves and see how we are. When we spend time with ourselves it is a concrete representation that we matter. When we reject spending time with ourselves our default patterns are self-rejection and people pleasing behaviours.

Pure forms of self-connection with self-compassion is through the simple things in life. Nature, food, discovery, curiosity and leaning into the idea that the world can hold us too.

The mind provides the lens of how we see reality and provides a voice for our feelings and relationships from what we feel in our body and intuition.

As children we absorb many learned behaviours from our parents and other important relationships. We learn to see how adults deal with problems and how these may directly or indirectly impact us.

The dialogue between our parents and ourselves when we make mistakes becomes the dialogue we speak to ourselves when we reach adolescence. At times we develop unhelpful thinking patterns in adolescence that occur regularly in adulthood. These unhelpful thinking habits can impact our awareness of feelings, relationships, health, habits and more.

Importantly, the mind comprises of the conscious mind, subconscious mind and the unconscious mind. The aim of this mind, body and spirit series is to unpack the common thinking habits and bring light to different understandings of our thoughts and lens.

The mind, body and spirit. The three key pillars of health that lives within us.

Some seasons of our lives require us to focus on certain areas more closely.

In psychological therapy, we can focus on these different aspects to address the presenting challenges in your life.

The mind, body and spirit need to be in alignment for us to move towards being our true self. When we start to feel "off" it is usually due to one of these pillars not being heard, understood or actioned.

Over the last several years as a psychologist, I have had thousands of sessions with clients of all ages and backgrounds.

During therapy, it is common to have moments where you feel time completely stands still and you feel a "breakthrough moment” with blocks you have been trying to push past or understand.

I’ll be sharing some statements shared from clients or myself in the upcoming months (here’s one to start us off).

Although every client is different, it is helpful to journal about these for yourself. You never know what you may discover! After all, we are only human too. 💙💛

Hey, Jackson here! A little about me…

Before becoming a registered therapist, I spent my fair share of time in the other chair. It was important to me that before I called myself a Psychologist, that I viewed myself as strong, internally healthy and consistent within.

It is important for me to practice what I preach and come from a place of confidence, compassion, knowledge and quirk.

My approach to therapy is somewhere between casual and clinical.

My strength lies in making sense of your mess/challenges by exploring:
- recurring patterns
- internal blocks
- your inner critic

And then, working towards building a positive, emotionally validating and compassionate relationship with yourself.

The only rule in therapy I have is too simply, "come as you are", and we will figure out the rest.

💙💛✌️

How do you show up for yourself? Do you set and stick to your boundaries? Do you push your limits and leave your comfort zone?

Ultimately the reputation with yourself is the only reputation you need to worry about when it comes to self confidence.

Grief shows you what is important in life. Grief shows you what parts of your life need more investment. Grief allows you to connect to your inner self and give you the opportunity and courage to change.

If you’re experiencing grief and feeling overwhelmed, remember that you will get through it and there are better days to come. Reach out to friends and family and take it one day at a time.

Working with many clients in my time, I have found that proposing a relationship to self is similar to a business investment. This results in a lot of truths unfolding in our sessions.

👉 Am I happy with the trajectory I am going?
👉 Is this what is lighting my soul?
👉 Does my friendship circle inspire me or exhaust me/waste my time?
👉 Have I put my needs on hold to please others?

A few question you can ask yourself and become aware of in your life.

Taking action vs motivation👇

The more you wait for motivation (aka ‘avoid something’) the more anxiety you will have.

The more anxiety you have the more doubt, self-criticism and self-judgement you will have.

Regardless of what you want to get motivated about, the answer always begins with action.

💥 Action is the inspiration for motivation
💥 Action is the precursor to motivation

I’m sorry to tell you, but the motivation you are waiting for won’t come by itself.

The key is to take action, no matter if you are motivated or not. Starting with any kind of task will motivate you to do more, thus leading to motivation to keep going!

Double tap if you’re taking action 💙💛
