Take a deep breath. 🌿

Sometimes life moves fast and it’s okay to pause.
You don’t have to have all the answers today.
Small steps, gentle self-care and kind thoughts toward yourself can make a difference. 🫶🏼

Remember, seeking support is a sign of strength, not weakness. 🌥️

Anti-Bullying Week may have ended, and although I had prepared a post for it, life got in the way… but here are some reflections.

I keep thinking about how much power each of us holds: to speak, to listen, to care. Even the smallest act of kindness can ripple out in ways we may never see. 🫶🏼

This week, I had conversations with my 9-year-old about bullying and we discussed ways to respond and support others in tricky situations. It reminded me how important it is to practice kindness, empathy and courage in everyday life.

If bullying has touched your life, remember: you are not alone and support is available.
I believe it’s important to create spaces where everyone feels safe, seen and valued.

🔘 The Circle of Control 🔘

Sometimes I catch myself worrying about things I can’t change. Little things, big things, things that feel urgent in the moment, and it never really helps.

One thing that is helpful in those moments, and I often share this with my clients too, is the idea of the circle of control.
Some things in life we simply cannot control.
Other things we can, such as our thoughts, our actions, our boundaries, how we respond and the kindness we choose to show. 🫶🏼

Focusing on what is truly within our circle of control doesn’t fix everything, but it does make life feel lighter.

Today I invite you to pause for a moment and notice where your energy is going.
Are you stressing over what you can’t change?
Or are you choosing to give your attention to what really matters: your choices, your words, your actions, your kindness?

Sometimes just gently shifting your focus back into your circle of control is enough to breathe a little easier and feel a little calmer. 🌿

🕊️ This weekend offers a moment to honour those we’ve lost.
Around the world, many pause to remember loved ones, in different ways: through quiet reflection, prayer, candlelight or cherished traditions. 🕯️

Grief takes many shapes. Sometimes it feels heavy, very heavy… other times, it’s softened by love and memory. However it shows up for you today, know that your way of remembering is enough. 🤍

For anyone navigating grief, it can help to have a safe, understanding space to share your feelings and honour your journey.

You don’t have to walk through grief alone. 🕊️

🌿 World Mental Health Day 2025🌿

How are you feeling today? 🫶🏼

This year’s theme highlights the importance of mental health care, especially during challenging times 💚, but support is for everyone, in everyday life and in moments of crisis.

Here’s a little mental health check:
🌬️ Take a moment to breathe, whenever you can… maybe even right now?! 😌
🧠 Notice your feelings, they’re totally valid! 🙌🏼
💬 Reach out to someone who makes you smile. 😀
👣 Move your body, stretch, walk or even a tiny wiggle counts! ☺️
🍵 Do one thing just for YOU.

Remember, you deserve care, kindness, and support… today and every day. 🌸

When anxiety shows up, what helps you feel grounded?

Even small acts of care: a few deep breaths, a walk outside or simply noticing your surroundings -> can make a difference. 🙌🏼

I wonder… what’s helping you feel a bit more calm? Feel free to share if you wish as your experience might help someone else. 🫶🏼
