Healing teaches you that not everyone deserves access to you. When you learn to recognise patterns of disrespect and disregard, you also learn the importance of protecting yourself.

Growth allows you to value your peace over pleasing others, and that shift is powerful.
It means you’re no longer just surviving, you’re living with awareness, self-respect, and the courage to walk away from what no longer feels right 💚

Feelings are difficult.
We can’t get rid of them easily.
The process for dealing with a feeling is to process it.
This involves recognising (noticing), describing it to yourself (or someone you trust), and allowing it to be there, thereby accepting its existence inside of you.
Miraculously, this acceptance means the feeling takes care of itself (subsides) in time, instead of festering and coming out sideways (through reactive or addictive behaviours).

Our counsellors can help you through this process 💚

As adults, we often get so caught up in “grown up” business that we can forget how to have pure fun.

This isn’t the kind of fun that comes from doing a specific kind of activity or being in a specific mood for fun.

Rather, this is the fun born from the state of pure being.

You see this kind of fun in small children who are so busy being fully present to their lives and in their own bodies that the glow of fun radiates from them just because they are alive: the delight that flashes across the eyes of a child who discovers that water flows with the turn of the tap k**b or the squeal of pleasure from a young baby whose tongue is being tickled by cold ice cream; then there’s the full, infectious laughter of a child watching the same funny thing for the fiftieth time......go seek your fun this weekend 😁

All of our psychological defenses, conscious and unconscious, are part of our self-care system.

Our brain, heart and body are constantly trying to protect itself and re-integrate itself.

Therefore, we must love our defense mechanisms because they are part of us; they’re trying to help us.

They are valid and rejecting them means rejecting parts of us .

Learn to listen to them, not reject them 💚
