Did you face any of these issues in your family of origin? 🤔

Have you taken any of these issues into your own family? 🤔

Take a moment to reflect.

Recognising dysfunctional patterns from our own upbringing and working to heal them for our future families is a big part of what Inner Child work involves 💜

Parenting is probably the hardest job in the world!

(It definitely felt like that for me this morning with my tweenage daughter 🤦‍♀️)

But what are some simple things we can do to foster emotional and mental strength in our children?…

😢 Encourage Emotional Intelligence

Help children recognize, understand, and express their emotions in healthy ways. Emotional intelligence is key to resilience, empathy, and self-awareness. Parents can model healthy emotional responses, engage in open conversations about feelings, and teach problem-solving techniques.

🧠 Foster a Growth Mindset

Encourage a mindset that values effort over innate ability. Help children understand that challenges and failures are opportunities to learn and grow. This builds confidence and perseverance, teaching children that their abilities are not fixed but can improve with effort.

✅ Promote Independence and Responsibility

Allow children to take on age-appropriate tasks and responsibilities, whether in school, at home, or in their social circles. By fostering independence and letting them make decisions, parents help children develop a sense of responsibility and self-reliance.

🚦Provide Consistent Support and Boundaries

Offer a balance of nurturing care and clear, consistent boundaries. Children thrive when they know they are supported, but also understand expectations and limits. This structure helps build a sense of safety and security, while also teaching discipline and respect for rules.

💟 Model Positive Relationships and Communication

Parents can teach children the value of healthy relationships by modeling respectful, open communication. Encourage positive social interactions, teach conflict resolution, and emphasize kindness and empathy. Strong,
healthy relationships form the foundation for emotional well-being in adulthood.

By incorporating these practices, we can help our children grow into resilient, capable adults who are equipped to face life’s challenges.

Which one of these do you wish you’d learnt as a child? 🤔 For me it the last one is definitely something I’ve had to learn as an adult.

Don’t let the front cover fool you, this book isn’t only for women! And it doesn’t only cover romantic relationships but also those with our family.

The author explains at the beginning…

“Intimacy means that we can be who we are in a relationship, and allow the other person to do the same.

It is a book about making responsible and lasting changes that enhance our capacity for genuine closeness over the long haul”.

She goes on to describe how…

“Substantive change in important relationships rarely comes about through intense confrontation.

Rather, it more frequently results from careful thinking and from planning for small, manageable moves based on a solid understanding of the problem, including our own part in it.”

So if you’re looking to make significant changes in a close relationship, give this book a try!

Have a great weekend 💜

It’s easy to blame someone else if we don’t feel loved.

But what if we’re the ones stopping ourselves from feeling loved? 🤔

Here’s some things we do without realising:

💜 Avoiding new relationships because we’ve been hurt in the past

💜 Date someone but quickly talk ourself out of continuing with the person without a valid reason

💜 Finding ourselves needing constant reassurance from friends and loved ones about a new partner rather than trusting our own feelings

💜 As our relationship develops, self sabotaging by creating arguments or finding faults with our partner

When we notice these behaviours in ourselves, it can be a sign we’re carrying past pain we haven’t allowed ourselves to feel and release.

Here’s 3 things we can do…

1. Connect with the pain from past events, allow emotions to arise and notice the sensations in your body. Take as long as you need to do this.

2. Write down everything you’ve learned from that experience. What did it teach you about yourself? What behaviours do you no longer want to repeat or accept?

3. Once you’re clear on what you need, practice mindfulness to notice if past habits creep in. Give yourself grace, knowing that healing can take time and lots of self compassion.

I posted earlier this week about being kinder to ourselves.

But what if we find it hard to be positive at all? 😏

In her book Positivity, Barbara Fredrickson explains that “Positivity can uniquely revitalise your worldview, your mental energy, your relationships, and your potential”

This book delves into her research on positivity, including what it is and why it’s more important than happiness!

There’s a Positivity Self Test for you to complete and details of 10 science backed methods to reduce negativity and increase positivity.

So if you’re looking to improve your outlook on life this year, give this book a try 💜

Wow I didn’t expect to be away from posting here for more than one month!

So a very belated Happy New Year to you all 🫶 I hope 2024 is treating you well so far?

I’ve been busy in the background with clients and working on a resource catalogue to help my clients get to the root of what they’re working on. But also taking time to pause when needed…

I’ve been reading “DO/PAUSE/You are not a To Do List” by .poynton where he shares a variety of ways we can pause.

It can be as simple as…

⏸️ Pausing in the middle of a book to look out the window and take some deep breaths.

⏸️ Pausing before you walk through the door at home, taking a moment to centre yourself and think about your love for the people inside and allowing that to wash over you before you rush in.

⏸️ Going for a walk outside.

⏸️ Taking a deep breath.

⏸️ Counting to 1 before entering a meeting room.

Or it can be a longer planned pause…

⏸️ A sabbatical from work for a few months.

⏸️ A pattern of pauses through the year, like the author himself who organises reading weekends where he gets together with friends. Or who heads off alone for a reading week.

I have a little routine where twice a year I head to a spa for the day where they have pools and saunas, plus loads of comfy seats. I always take a book and devour it in between relaxed sauna sessions.

I always come away relaxed but also inspired.

What pauses are you taking each day/week/month/year? And notice how you feel during and after a pause, no matter how big or small the pause is 💜

You might be wondering, why is people pleasing a bad thing? 🤔

Here’s a few of the negative impacts it can have:

▪️It can cause stress and anxiety. This can be from taking on too much or simply feeling stressed when we can’t make someone happy.

▪️It can create issues in relationships. It can lead to feelings of resentment towards others, you may feel taken advantage of as the one who is always helping.

▪️ It can lead to a loss of your true self. When we spend all our time worrying about others we can neglect ourselves.

This can be simply not knowing what we want or how we feel in situations; but it can also be not taking care of our own personal hygiene, neglecting our own career or not paying attention to our own mental and physical health.

The need to be a people pleaser can also come from a number of different factors:

▪️ Low self esteem
▪️ Insecurities
▪️ Wanting to avoid conflict
▪️ Perfectionism
▪️ Past experiences
▪️ Childhood Traumas

I hope these slides help, but if you have any questions on this topic please drop me a DM 🙏🏻

As we edge closer to the festive season, please remember:

💜 You’re important
💜 Your needs matter
💜 You are worthy

Be kind to yourself 🫶

Have you been tending to your roots to make sure they’re healthy? 🤔

In his article “The Top Priority for Having a Healthy Body” shares as follows…

“Here’s a quiz with only one question: To have a healthy body, which is more desirable, being in shape physically or being free of depression?

The correct answer is being free of depression. Depression is linked to poor sleep, fatigue, lowered immunity, susceptibility to infections, premature heart attacks, and more. But most people are in the habit of approaching their bodies only physically.

Once you recognize that a healthy body is actually multidimensional, embracing mind, body, and spirit, thoughts as well as cells, emotions as well as exercise and diet, it is obvious that no amount of vigilance about risks can produce all the desired facets of lifelong well-being.

What you need instead is an enjoyable, uplifting lifestyle that automatically and effortlessly promotes physical and mental health.

Every day you can devote time and energy to the most valuable things in your life, things that you know will generate joy and bliss. At the same time, you can avoid their opposite, the things that promote stress, anxiety, conflict, resistance, sadness, and depression.

Those two things, promoting bliss and diminishing the obstacles to bliss, aren’t hypothetical. You can begin to follow this vision immediately, even if you begin in small ways, like making sure you smile every day, having meaningful contact with someone who inspires you, or taking the time to read something you find spiritually uplifting.”
