Tiny Tip Tuesday ๐Ÿ’ญ

When youโ€™re in a tough moment, pause and try these 3 gentle reminders.

๐Ÿ’ญ Acknowledge your pain
๐ŸŒ Remember youโ€™re not alone
๐Ÿค Offer yourself kindness

You donโ€™t have to โ€œfixโ€ the feeling right away. You just have to meet it with care.

Itโ€™s these small statements that can then help create space between you and the struggle โ€” so you can respond, not react.

Small shifts, big impact.

Save this to come back to when you need a little self-compassion ๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿผ

๐Ÿ’งFriendly Reminder: Crying is healthy way to release emotions and tension. Itโ€™s not a breakdown - itโ€™s a reset. Let it flow, let it heal. ๐Ÿค

One year of Power Your Thoughts, wow! ๐Ÿ’ญ๐Ÿคฉ

If I met myself a year ago, Iโ€™d tell her that chasing what matters most to her means embracing the unknown, taking risks, and being okay with failing along the way. Iโ€™d tell her that sheโ€™d eventually find her footing but that she canโ€™t doubt herself so much. She has to be kinder to herself. ๐Ÿค๐Ÿผ

Launching PYT a year ago was whirlwind of emotions; excitement, fear, optimism, inadequacy, surprise. Looking back, I canโ€™t help but feel proud of myself for pushing through the discomfort, and giving myself a chance to build something valuable from the ground up. ๐Ÿฅน

Thank you to my amazing supervisors, peers, colleagues, family and friends for supporting this dream from the beginning. This girl is feeling grateful for every challenge, victory, and lesson learned along the way.๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ

One year down, many more to go! Letโ€™s see whatโ€™s next for PYT ๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿพ

Tiny Tip Tuesday๐Ÿ’ก

The next time that youโ€™re experiencing distressing thoughts or feelings about something in the past and/or future, grounding techniques like the 5-4-3-2-1 method can help bring you back to the present day.

How so?

Grounding techniques use either the senses or mental distractions to help redirect thoughts away from distressing feelings, and more to neutral or positive things in the environment. As time passes, so do the upsetting feelings.

Remember, emotions are like waves; they come and go, and reach a peak at a certain point. If we can learn to ride each โ€œemotional waveโ€ as it comes, then we gain a sense control over how we respond to different situations in our lives. This grounding technique is just one of many that can bring our bodies and minds back to a place of safety.

Try this out the next time youโ€™re having a difficult moment.

- Montana

We, as humans, are wired for connection. ๐Ÿค๐Ÿผ

As Vienna Pharaon () conveyed during her workshop at the 2024 conference and in her new book, The Origins of You, the family and framework we grew up within, can have long lasting effects for us as we age and navigate through lifeโ€™s challenges. Certain dysfunctions (or wounds as Vienna terms them), can manifest in different ways, in our childhood (hiding, avoiding, performing, and pleasing), and be concealed through things like perfectionism, people-pleasing, comic relief, self-medication, and caretaking, to name a few ways. ๐Ÿ“‹

Therefore, gaining knowledge about our past, and learning how to resolve things from our past, can be transformative for our adult lives and relationships. As Vienna conveyed during her workshop, we can change those unhelpful patterns for the better, with the right support and tools. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ

This Week in Therapy ๐Ÿ’ฌ

โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”
Inspired by and her therapy posts, here is an intimate moment in my therapy room.

The important takeaway:

โžก๏ธ Donโ€™t lose yourself to fit someone elseโ€™s narrative. We live in a world that wants us to fit in and please everybody, but weโ€™re worthy of love and acceptance, just as we are.

As Brene Brown once put it, to be authentic, we must cultivate the courage to be imperfect. ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿผ

So, even when itโ€™s hard, show up for yourself! ๐Ÿซต๐Ÿผ

Hopefully, by sharing some unfiltered words in therapy, it reminds people that theyโ€™re not alone in their challenges. Maybe we can all learn a thing or two. Maybe itโ€™s just food for thought. ๐Ÿ’ญ
