We can create a safe haven for ourselves by establishing boundaries that protect our emotional energy. This doesn't mean we are shutting ourselves off from the world; rather it's about ensuring that the interactions and activities we choose fill us up instead of drain us.

By allowing ourselves to be constantly bombarded by stressful situations or overly demanding relationships, we risk burnout, anxiety, and depression.

Boundaries act as a safeguard for our mental health, helping us limit these negative exposures.

If you're struggling with your mental health, please know that you're not alone. There are people who care about you and who want to help. Let us support you. Go to www.tacitknows.com to connect with us.

At Tacit Knowledge, we believe in the incredible power of "AND."

This world is full of gray areas - life isn't usually about choosing one extreme or the other. By embracing the space in between (and doing a bit of both options on the pendulum), we can create a more fulfilling and balanced life.

Ready to explore the power of "AND" in your own life? Send us a DM or to go www.tacitknows.com to learn more.

Finding the right therapist is a critical part of ensuring your counselling journey will be successful.

A person needs to feel comfortable with their counsellor - they need to feel understood and supported (not judged).

The therapist needs to be reliable and available. And they need to have the specific training and experience that is relevant to the needs of the person who is seeking help.

Trusting your instincts is essential; a strong, comfortable connection with our therapist can make all the difference. And good therapists do not mind at all if you ask about their approach to ensure it resonates with your needs.

Are you looking for a good book to help you build and/or maintain your own healthy mental wellness? Tacit is here to help!

Each month, we will be providing insights into some of the books we recommend to our clients. Our hope is that you might find some of these suggestions helpful for your own needs.

This month, we are featuring "The Six Pillars of Self-Esteem" by Nathaniel Branden. This book is highly rated (by thousands of people) on Amazon and Good Reads - and I recommend it to many of my clients (even though it was written a few decades ago, the information is still very sound).

Discover why self-esteem is a vital and fundamental root need for success and happiness. The author breaks things down into six easy-to-understand, action-based practices for daily living that provide the foundation for healthy self-esteem. And he explores the importance of self-esteem in five specific areas: the workplace, parenting, education, psychotherapy, and the culture at large.

This book shows why - in today's chaotic and competitive world - self-esteem is fundamental to our personal and professional power. Check it out and start your journey towards a stronger, healthier you!

Healing doesn’t mean the damage never existed; it means the damage no longer controls our lives. It's a journey of acknowledging the past while embracing the present, transforming pain into strength.

Healing empowers us to reclaim our lives, break free from the grip of past wounds, and move forward with resilience and hope.

If you're finding it difficult to allow yourself to feel challenging emotions, seeking support from a therapist might be beneficial. A counsellor can provide the proper tools and understanding, creating a safe space for inner connection. This support can help you navigate your emotions and move forward in a healthy, healing way.

Our minds are so very powerful - they influence not only our thoughts and feelings, but also our physical well-being.

When we suffer from chronic pain issues, we often try to manage the world around us (noises, movement, what we eat/drink, etc) to mitigate our discomfort. But sometimes, the biggest antagonizers stem more from what is going on inside of our own minds.

Patterns of excessive self-criticism, of people-pleasing behaviours, and of immense pressure being put on ourself can manifest as physical pain. The inability to relax and slow our racing thoughts increases our energy drain and knocks us even more off balance. The constant worry associated with these patterns triggers a fight-or-flight response in our brain, which raises stress hormone levels and leads to painful physical symptoms like headaches, joint and body pains, nausea, IBS issues, racing heart beats and/or shortness of breath (just to name a few).

Need to talk to someone about how to stop these habits? Or perhaps you would prefer to try some Neurofeedback options, to reset your brain's patterns without the need for more traditional talk-therapy? Tacit would be happy to support you. Go to www.tacitknows.com to connect with us about how we can help.

Our minds can be chatterboxes, throwing out worries, judgments, and anxieties faster than we can catch them. ️

But here's the thing: our thoughts are just thoughts. Just because we think them does NOT make them true.

Knowing this reminds us that we can challenge our thoughts to determine if they are useful or not. As we slow things down and w**d out the reactionary (and perhaps unhealthy) messages that sometimes play in our heads, we can make better choices about what truly supports who we want to be (and how we want to feel).

People frequently use the terms “depressed” and “sad” to describe feelings of despair, grief, loneliness, and unhappiness. When we don't fully understand what we are feeling, we can sometimes overreact to normal states of sadness or underreact to more serious bouts of depression (a mental health condition which needs support).

Sadness, a normal response to identifiable events like loss or disappointment, is usually temporary and improves with time and support.

Depression, however, is a persistent condition (lasting at least two weeks) which affects our ability to function on a daily basis. It often requires some professional help.

If persistent sadness or depression is affecting you or a loved one, therapy (self-help, counselling, spiritual guidance, etc) is crucial for the effective management and treatment of these issues.

Did you know...apples can help you chill!

Apples contain a special type of fiber which helps regulate the body's production of cortisol (one of our main stress hormones).

Cortisol is great for short-term bursts of energy - in the right amounts, cortisol is our friend. But when it is being over-produced (during times of high or ongoing stress for example), cortisol can wreak havoc on our health. It causes problems with our sleep, our ability to focus/concentrate, with our skin and hair, and on our energy and motivation levels.

Next time you're feeling overwhelmed, reach for a delicious crunchy apple, and help balance out those stress hormones naturally!

Conflict can feel like a roadblock in any relationship, but it doesn't have to be a dead end. Effective communication is the key to turning conflict into an opportunity for growth.

When we truly listen to each other's perspectives, concerns, and feelings, we can build empathy and respect. By clearly expressing ourselves and working together to find common ground, we can not only resolve the immediate issue, but also strengthen our bond.

This newfound understanding creates a foundation for trust and cooperation, paving the way for more harmonious interactions in the future. So next time you face a disagreement, remember: communication is the key to unlocking a stronger relationship.

Sometimes, we try to outrun the uncomfortable stuff. But the truth is, avoiding our feelings only causes them to become trapped inside of our emotional baggage box.

There is incredible power in acknowledging our emotions - even the painful ones. The process moves us forward, toward repair, recovery and growth.

If you are struggling to allow yourself to feel difficult emotions, you might consider seeking support from a therapist. The proper tools and understanding that a counsellor can offer creates a safe space for the connection within, and can help you move forward in a healthy way.

We all need a safe space to connect to and to release our emotions. Journaling can help!

When we put pen to paper, we get the chance to explore our feelings freely and without judgment. Our private and uncensored writing helps us to better understand ourselves - and to navigate life's ups and downs with more clarity. The process of journaling can highlight patterns with how we think and feel. And it can help us decide if these patterns are helpful and protective, or if they are harmful and need to change.

Feeling stuck and don't know how to start? Try these prompts in your next journaling session.

Do you sometimes think that your partner might have a drinking problem?

There is no exact measure that will define how much drinking is “too much” – or what drinking patterns will become a “problem”.

Excessive (or problematic or abusive) drinking patterns often start out as the solution to a deeper issue. And it is that root issue that needs to be recognized and addressed, if the problem drinking patterns themselves can ever be resolved.

Check out our blog at https://tacitknows.com/drinking-problem/ or at www.tacitknows.com to learn more about the warning signs of problem drinking patterns.

If done regularly, the practice of gratitude can radically shift our physical health and emotional/mental well-being. The best part - it costs nothing but our time!

Join us in practicing a habit of gratitude, each and every day. Take 5 minutes in the morning, in the afternoon and in the evening (15 min total). Focus on things that you feel you did well - or that you were proud of yourself for - or that you were appreciative of in the world around you. And recognize the role YOU played (what you specifically did) in allowing those positives to be experienced in your life.

Pasta actually makes us happy! The Behaviour and Brain Lab at the University Institute in Milan has proven that eating pasta triggers “a powerful and lasting positive emotional-cognitive state”.

In fact, studies show that eating pasta equates to the same positive response in our brain as does listening to music or watching our favourite athlete/team win a championship.

Pasta has tryptophan in it (known for its mood regulation effects) – it also has B vitamins, which help with muscle relation and serotonin (a happy hormone) production. And, as a complex carb, it has been proven to stimulate the production of endorphins.

So, the next time you are feeling a little low, fork over some happiness and discover the mood-boosting magic of pasta.

An auditory hallucination happens when a person hears noises or voices when there is no one else present (no other source exists). When these hallucinations involve voices, they are called verbal hallucinations.

These voices can sometimes be a symptom of various mental health issues. But they can also be brought on by many other very natural causes - not at all related to mental health illnesses. Before you start to worry, learn more about when and why people might hear voices that others do not.

When it comes to our mental well-being, sometimes simplicity is the key.

When we are decorating a room in our home, we know how comfortable the flow can become when we remove old furniture and excess clutter, freeing up more of the space.

In the same way, simplifying our thoughts can help our minds feel clearer and happier. By sorting through the musings that no longer serve us well - and by removing the unnecessary clutter and noise from the ideas that are not rooted in truth - we make space for peace and calm to exist instead.

Self-sabotaging behaviours often stem from our brain's desire (or need) to protect itself. And one of the main threats that trigger this response in our brain is the fear of failure (or of disappointing others if we fail).

How do we break free from self-sabotaging behaviours? The first step is to notice it as it is happening! Once we are aware of the patterns we are repeating, we can challenge our thoughts and find techniques that allow us to reframe our choices in healthier ways.

Sometimes, our intimate relationships can fall into a bit of a rut. Our hellos and goodbyes can become stale and routine - with quick kisses that we don’t really pay attention to. When we make time for what is referred to as the “6-second kiss”, our stress hormone (cortisol) gets released and our connection hormone (oxytocin) gets boosted. These shifts increase powerful feelings of love and strengthen the confidence, trust and intimacy we feel towards our partner. Anything beyond 6 seconds only serves to deepen the relationship even more! #love #relationshipadvice #relationshiptips #relationshipgoals #valentines #couplegoals #yeg #yyc

There are all sorts of reasons why a person might decide not to pursue therapy as a support option when they are struggling with an emotional/mental health issue (check out our November 4th blog to read more about this). Perhaps the person is just not ready to fully address whatever they are experiencing. They may not have the time, energy or desire to unpack some of the potentially painful feelings that will come to the surface as they deal with their issue more intensely. And that's okay! No matter how good our intentions might be, we cannot force someone into therapy and expect that it will end successfully. The decision to participate in counselling is each person’s own to make. And, as the person who is trying to be supportive, your role is to be patient and empathetic, even if you believe therapy would help. Therapy is beneficial only when the person who is participating in it feels the time is right to change their life. Visit our blog at TacitKnows.com (link in the bio) to get more insight on other reasons why people sometimes say no to therapy. 🌻Don't forget to sign up for our monthly Newsletter for more tips, techniques and program/workshop information!

That feeling of losing yourself is a slow process – it doesn’t happen overnight. It can seem almost impossible to find the time or the energy to be able to tune into our own needs, wants and feelings on a consistent basis. But we must make this process of self-reflection a priority each and every day, if we want to be able to feel truly happy and content in our life.

This is an excellent reminder that people may need different levels of support in any given situation. One person may need a listening ear, while another might be looking for advice. If we take time to ask our loved ones this simple question - "What do you need?" - it can make a world of a difference in our ability to successfully help. 🌻Don't forget to sign up for our monthly Newsletter for more tips, techniques and program/workshop information!

Pursuing new friendships and new romantic relationships can be exhausting. Getting to know new people is hard work. Some will obviously not be a good fit for us. And others will be wonderful people but not exactly what we are needing in our life at the moment. After a bunch of false starts and incomplete connections, we might be tempted to start thinking that there is something wrong with us. The whole process can often be hard on our self-esteem. To make things easier, spend time getting to know yourself first. Be selective. And make sure the quality of your new relationships truly meets your wants/needs. The truth is - not everyone is going to be your person - and that’s okay! 🌻Don't forget to sign up for our monthly Newsletter for more tips, techniques and program/workshop information!
