🎙 Is your kid really bouncing or is it how you as parents respond to the bounce? 🏀

🎙 The family scape goat is often the child where conflicts, disappointments, disagreements are directed towards……. There back is broad they carry it all….. 🏋‍♂️

🎙 But their naughty you say ADHD, AUTISTIC, LEARNING DIFFICULTIES!
They are insightful, bright, the cheeky ones, the fun ones, and the ones who dare to actually look you straight in the eye….. 👁

🎙 The ones who dare to answer back in the face of injustice; despite that thump may have hurt! 😥

🎙 So what do we do as adults? when we feel seen and want to inflict and create more hurt, through silencing, minimising and not hearing? To force our will and get to demeaning. 🛑

🎙 As adults can we stop and ‘hold’ our nerve? is breaking this child the place we really need to go? 💔

🎙 As an ex physical education Teacher and now therapist parents often talk about their children in their own struggles. 😢

🎙 The screams, the shouts, the meltdowns and more, the foul mouthed, potty mouthed language you can’t take any more.
😮
🎙 The skill is not parenting the swear word, but the emotion behind the swearing. What does swearing tell us? 🤔

🎙 It’s like the sound of silence……. You hear a lot in silence; to the astute and switched on ear you hear a lot behind a swear word; if you would only take the time and listen.

🎙 F*you, C*nT,Ba$tard ever land you in hospital with a perforated ear drum? 👂

🎙 There is a wonderful story wrapped up within their authenticity……. 🤐

🎙 Through hearing we get to understanding from understanding you can then get to ‘educating’ your right way of conducting.

🎙 Injustice can only be calmed through their story being shared, heard, held, and validated.

🎙 That’s when you’ll get your calm after the storm…….. 🕊

🎙Adult bullying yes-no really....

You better believe it.....👺. We will make that structure of blocks fall.

🎙Perhaps you have had your personal space invaded through voyeurism ( where sexual pleasure is derived from illegally spying on you) or generally spying on you through harassment. 👀

🎙In the work place it present as inhibiting your potential. ➰

🎙Within the family you may have experienced your continual role as the scapegoat switched to the golden child when you succeed? 🏆

🎙Within communities bullying presents as campaigns aimed to label you and sabotage your 'name'. 🤫

🎙It might be that there is a general 'feeling of dislike' towards you for everything you stand for and the person you stand to be'. 💯

🎙Unwanted attention may have presented through forced interactions you would never invite in to your life. 📤

😞All this impacts your autonomy of functioning at a level and being yourself- the right people let you 'flow'.....

As it is national DV/coercive control month what we do know is that abuse is not just present within the home.

Do not loose heart; you will regain your shine!🌟

👁️‍🗨️ Harassment/Stalking……

🎙 Homeostasis in families the hand that rocks the mobile…..
🎊

🎙 In families-relationships where there is substance/alcohol use there is a desperate need and desire for them to try and maintain the ‘units’ homeostasis.
Through a process of ‘enabling’…… 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 🍺 🍷 💉

🎙 Enabling?

🎙 Perhaps you have found yourself; driving through a housing estate to find a ‘dealer’s house to support your partners/son/daughter’s habit? 🚔 💉

🎙 You may have found yourself lying in work or leaving work to support their needs and not focusing on your own? 😫

🎙 Have you found yourself buying food knowing they are using their allowance on substances/alcohol? .... 🛍

🎙 Perhaps you have ‘witnessed’ yourself lying to relatives/friends about your own addiction to 'co-dependent support’?
👫
🎙 Do you experience shame, around knowing your partner allows ex- or other addicts into your home without your consent or a need to know? 👥

🎙 You may now notice the families’ unhealthy roles, and rituals which have developed because of your need to try and maintain homeostasis within the family unit parts? 👩‍👩‍👧‍👦

🎙 As with a hanging mobile; when a part of the mobile is out of whack, it sets a whole imbalance through out the mobile structure….. 💥

The ‘danger’ is how as humans we compensate for this! 😫

🔜 If you want to explore where you’ve noticed your family mobile being out of whack, or that your co-dependency has led you down the wrong ‘drug delivery service’ path…….

🔜 I'll help you identify your desire to maintain the families ‘what is-ness’ homeostasis even though you know its not healthy or feels wrong…….. as we know this will hinder THEIR desire to change….. ⭕

🔛 Then look no further let’s explore how we can get you back to your naturally aligned path! 🌒

Liquid poison….🍾🍷🍺☣

🎙Growing up in a home plighted by the use and misuse of alcohol the impact of ‘addiction’ within a family is a strange phenomenon……

🎙So what’s it like being a parentificated child?

🎙Both funny and sad really it would seem.

🎙Funny in that as a child an ‘adult’ pi***ng in ‘Sunday’s potato pan’ 🥘 seems funny their a nutter or is it you coping, but as you grow older, you actually realise how much loss and pain that other human being was actually in.🤮😔

🎙Similarly, your tip toeing peering through a glass windowed locked door, do they hear your whisper? get up Mum, why you lying on the floor?🥺

🧠As we know SUDs alcohol affects more than just the person who misuses substances; they affect the person's entire family as well.

🤫For many it breaks down the ways in which family members get along, communicate, and bond with each other.

🧩As we know a family is a system consisting of different “ individual parts” (the family members).

💣A dramatic change in one part can cause catastrophic changes throughout the system.

💰When a family member has an SUD like alcohol, the effects on that person's family can vary significantly, depending on factors such as the severity, access to resources, family type, patterns of substance misuse, and the presence of substance misuse or related activities in the family home, to name just a few....

😅😔Don’t laugh it off or struggle in silence; to explore how I can help you ‘unravel ‘where substances tightened the knot in your family unit, then look no more.

🎥Life brings to us what ever it is meant to bring……

🆙️Why do some children rise up from trauma? Because against all the odds they know there is something better something greater.

🆙️Adversity- is natural in life and also natural for children who have experienced trauma.

⛑Trauma is done to you while adversity happens around you; due to your interaction with life and other people’s interactions within themselves which will either be content and robust, or fragmented and controlling.

Why is it important to let it be?

🛌Even in comfort the soul is knocking, why because it just knows, that it knows, that it knows……..

🆙️We see 40,50-, and 60-year-old people suddenly training for marathons, but yet they have been in the same job, same town and with the same partner for years……..

🎈while others pack their bags and say goodbye!

🌅The soul nock’s and calls them to engage in something greater than their current circumstances.

🎧Lets allow our souls to evolve naturally; through listening to the whispers of our intuition we will know, that we know, that we know, we just know……..

🧠Overthinking Narcissistic abuse.

🎙Narcissistic abuse creates injustices in every aspect of your life, why because they know injustices harm you.

➡️What are injustices that harm you?

💣Infidelity- with friends, family and other people close to you.

💣Holding you back in your career

💣Slandering your name- they know you’ll try and prove otherwise.

💣Isolating as a result of smearing your name

💣Encouraging people to complain about you.

💣Gang stalking- where a group of people are ‘paid’ so they choose to impose extreme surveillance, harassment, and intimidation over you in exchange for money or being raised within their own career at the expense of you.

🧠Perhaps you now find yourself thinking and re-thinking everything?

How is this possible?

🧠You may find yourself questioning your own thought process to understand why your feeling the way you do?

🧠Perhaps you find yourself reflecting on the time you have lost, obsessing over why they have done what they have done?

🧠You may find yourself re- living the moments of humiliation, where you have been set up knowing that your destined to fail because they have created the environment only conducive to that?

🧠Perhaps your grieving over how the injustices have impacted your real sense of self?

🧠You now realise that your hyper-rationality has come from a place of over analysing and trying to predict the future and what that will mean?

🧠You may have noticed that your stress levels have increased through your fear of what, could and should be? But they created an environment to not let it be?

💡Narcissists do not actually want you to succeed. Why?

🦠Often they attach themselves to people who are naturally in flow with their own vibe…….

They enjoy interrupting that 😔

🌅That is the place where you shine……

✨Magpies are attracted to the shine, narcissists are but they actually do everything they can to dim that shine.🌑

💡All is not lost now you are aware of what has been happening to you; its time for you to rise….

🌬In order to get what you really want; you have to let go of what you don’t want…..

🌑Your worth more than being around people who can not and will not let your authenticity shine!

Let's help you find the soul's that will.🥰

🎙Are you pathologically innocent? 🕊

J.S. Wolfe, The Pathology of Innocence

“Those who get angry when you set a boundary are the ones you need to set boundaries for.” 💥

🎙Throughout relationship advice we are guided to maintain and build ‘stalwart’ boundaries.

🤔Have you wondered why boundaries don’t work in narcissistic relationships?

💯What you may have now realised is that the only people / person who gets annoyed when you reset your boundaries are those who didn’t like you having them in the first place.

The problem with having boundaries is that narcissists are ‘allergic’ 🤧 to them and so as a result will go and seek an alternative source of ‘energy’ where the boundaries are not even present.

🎙Perhaps you have experienced a relationship where they have totally dismissed your ‘no’?

🚔They may have even gone so far as to ignore a restraining order after the relationship has ended?

😟You may have been at work, and they’ve called to which you experience of this is anxiety, threat and witness yourself in a state of fear needing to respond to feel free-er?

💔You may now be experiencing divorce proceedings and are noticing that they have put you in a ‘double bind’ where your settlement does not work in your favour no matter the options your given?

🤙Boundaries are awesome as they show us who truly wants to be around us and actually who doesn’t respect us.

🙏The right people will respect and ‘hear’ you boundary, value it and see why it is actually connected to you and for what reason…

Paulo Coelho — 'Freedom is not the absence of commitments, but the ability to choose - and commit yourself to - what is best for you.'🤛

I say choose your boundaries through 'yes-es' and you most certainly choose you.❤
