Looking for something the kids can get stuck into this school holidays..... I can highly recommend Roxanne at Free to be Bush Play and Learning .

My kids have fabulous memories of their time exploring nature, learning outdoor skills and building their risk taking abilities!

Pop on some warm clothes and get outside 😊

We are excited to offer our first drop off bush play and skills these holidays.

Led by two qualified, experienced, and passionate educators, this special day invites your child to:
* Learn bush skills and use real tools safely
* Try fire striking and how to build and cook on a fire
* Engage in free play, with friends, among the trees
* Create potions and more at our epic water play area
* Create with nature crafts and clay
* Go sledding, build shelters, experiment with loose parts and more!

Build resilience, confidence, and connection in nature. With the guidance of our nature playworkers, the land, and a range of resources, children will have the freedom to explore and create in the bush.

Spaces are limited for this one so be sure to save your spot soon.
Please get on touch if you have any questions about this new offering x

This is one for all of my former ‘good kids;’ those who hate rocking the boat and often prefer to suffer in silence over sharing our discomfort with someone else.

But the thing is, if you don’t actually share your discomfort or your limit or your need, then the other person doesn’t actually know that you’re uncomfortable or that you’ve hit your limit or that there’s something that could make this experience more enjoyable for you.

And I know that many of us (myself included at times) are afraid to share what’s actually going on because we’re afraid to be met with misunderstanding, conflict, or possible rejection.
We’re afraid that if we’re not easy-going, then we won’t be accepted.

But the truth is, no can actually truly get to know you for the unique and beautiful person that you are if you don’t share your limits, desires, and needs with them.

To be loved for who you are, you have to be willing to be your own autonomous person - one who doesn’t always agree with everybody; who owns your own experiences and responses to the world.

I love the people who let me know how they feel, even when it’s different to how I feel about something, even something important. It lets me know who they are, and often it helps me better understand my own feeling about said thing, (I’ll notice the response I feel to their stance and that gives me information about myself).

It also means I don’t have to try to search for and look for hints as to how they’re REALLY feeling, which is exhausting. I’d much rather you just told me.

This isn't easy work, but it's how you begin to connect more deeply with other people - by letting them see you and noticing how they respond.

The Cycle Breakers Program begins September 2nd.
This is a 12 month program for those committed to changing their relational patterns - those who have been doing the work and are working to practice walking the talk. Meeting themselves with greater compassion, practicing emotional self-management, and connecting with others as they break cycles for future generations.

The answer (of feeling, words, thoughts, sensations) you notice might surprise you!

Being curious and open is crucial to building trust and rapport with your parts.

If you aren't sure, just notice. Check in whenever you have this 'too much' feeling and see if you can notice any themes or patterns.

Embrace each part of yourself with compassion and understanding. I know with so many clients they can feel frustrated with their parts for 'making things harder' or 'getting in the way' and this can trigger shame and guilt. Sometimes even anger. But your parts are nearly always trying to help you. And in therapy, we want to help those parts, to release the burden of doing this job that often makes them so so tired, and give it up to the adult, Self.

In IFS, we hold the belief that inside each of us is a wise, compassionate Self—who can lead the way, even when parts feel loud, scared, or reactive.
Self-leadership isn’t about 'fixing' your parts.
It’s about showing up as a calm, compassionate guide—listening, befriending, and supporting them with love.
