I like to remind myself and my lovely clients that rest isn't just a reward for hard work.

Rest is essential to physical and mental health. Unadulterated, joyful rest - the art of doing nothing, without shame, guilt or thinking it is a form of laziness.

It personally took me a long time to learn how to detach and 'rest' for the sake of it.

Periods of rest don't have to consume hours and hours. A rest can be as simple as an hour sitting outside, having a warm tea or a cold drink while observing nature. Rest can also look like a 40-minute catnap in the afternoon.

When you embark on a healing journey with me, one of the first things I ask you to do is look at incorporating some rest into your schedule. Yes, even busy mums and dads need downtime.

Please remember, rest is not a dirty word.

🔥Burnout Warnings🔥

Your body will always try to message you before you fall into complete burnout.

There are usually tell tale signs and symptoms that you may be heading for not only a physical collapse, but a psychological crash, too!

Unexplained or new symptoms often correlate with certain parts of the physical body while our minds are desperately begging for a pause or reset.

Here is a list of symptoms that may indicate you need to take a break and regulate your nervous system.

You can start by doing some somatic release exercises. More to come tomorrow.

This is my basic recipe for most therapy sessions.

It is never simply 'one thing'. It is an accumulation of holding so much for so long.

Here's your late-night reminder: There are safe spaces where you can let it out.

Our beautiful clinic with views of Norwest Lakeside is one of those places.

While I am booked out this week, I do have some sessions available next week.

It works!

Give this a try and see how you feel.

Release the stored ‘stuff’ that causes angst, anger and feelings of being stuck.

After a fantastic client session today using EFT (tapping), I thought I’d do a quick educational.

Sometimes, even as a therapist, you forget how powerful some tools are 😊
