A chat, a check-in, a vent, a catch up. At times we all need a safe space to chat with someone we trust. By getting things 'out in the air', being heard, connecting with someone can make a big difference to our wellbeing. Connecting with others can make a pivotal change to our day, week, month, year.

By holding space for someone, even if for a moment, can help others freely think, feel, focus, and reassess their actions and feelings.

It is also vitally important to seek someone you trust to hear you also. it can ease your stress levels and concerns. Easing someone's burdens can start with R U OK?. Being heard gives our bodies and minds the chance to re-regulate, we begin to think clearly and feel calm again.

If you feel that the person you can trust also appears burdened, speaking with a professional can bring you a sense of freedom to be you. You can focus on the important things, and your relationships can be in the 'here & now'. You can develop skills to navigate those invisible holdbacks often in our way when 'taking on the world', building healthy relationships and navigating forever changing environments.

Get back creating memorable moments for yourself and spending time your most favourite humans and fur babies 😊 😺 🐶 🐴 🌿 ☀️

Does your child push you away when they need you most? 'Go away' often means 'stay close' - it's their way of maintaining connection through attachment.

Undertaking life's turbulent challenges can make one feel frazzled, confused, and second guess themselves.

It takes energy, routine and consistency to navigate this world.
It is normal to second guess yourself.

We each play an invaluable role in this little thing we call life
However, we can become a crew of sailors who navigate life's seas together.

Teaching each other the life skills to be a skilled sailor, skills then they can pass onto others. Empower one another to be their greatest self in this life.

Hidden Disabilities Sunflower is fast becoming internationally recognised, supporting individuals, groups and families with additional needs to access the community with additional support. A carer or parent wearing a sunflower lanyard promotes awareness for other community members, businesses and services. For example when travelling through airports the airport staff are trained to recognise the sunflower and where possible prioritise or assist those with hidden needs, expediting the boarding process for all.
It is a growing concept throughout the world.
