Stressed? 😫

Who could imagine we could learn more from snakes 🐍 about managing stress 🤔

As fellow creatures of this beautiful planet the article describes ‘social buffering’, I might describe this in counselling terms as co-regulation but whatever the term, it’s a wonderful way to find the ground in the escalating stressors around us.

I would also add if you can’t find a human🧍 find a tree 🌳 or a pet 🐕 🐈 or maybe even a snake 🐍 🫶🏻😄

These reptiles might not be your first port-of-call for wellbeing lessons, but research into their behaviour has uncovered a lesson on stress

Reflections for the thoughtful space that may find you over this Easter Weekend 📖🤔

🌍 🌎 🌏 🌙

Instructions before visiting Earth, poem by James McCrae

In the event that you wake up
and find your soul separated from source
and manifest into material form,
don’t panic.
Your condition is only temporary.

You have been selected for the
opportunity of human incarnation.

This 3D simulation is designed
to break up the monotony of eternity
by giving you a fully immersive
experience as a distinct ego identity.

Your body will serve
as your physical avatar as you
navigate a dense and dramatic reality.
There will be many distractions
causing you to forget your true nature
and origin. You will experience
a range of emotions, from joy
to loneliness to despair.

But remember – no matter
what trials and traumas you encounter,
your soul remains perfectly safe.

At times you may feel lost or afraid.
This is totally normal.
If you ever need guidance,
simply slow down your busy mind
and bring your awareness
to the quiet place
inside yourself.

On this planet, nothing is permanent.
People and things will come and go.
You will fall in love and form sentimental attachments
only to lose everything you hold dear.

So cling to nothing too tightly, even yourself,
and when it’s time to let go, let go with grace,
for nothing is owned, only borrowed.

As you walk among
the people on the planet,
try to be a good guest.
Tread lightly. Remember
that you are only visiting.
Don’t make a mess.
Listen more than you speak.
Give more than you take.

Don’t keep your soft heart
locked inside a glass cage,
protected from wear and tear.

You’ll never make it out alive
and time passes quickly.
So come back with some battle scars
and good stories to tell.

Even small steps move you forward 💛

So often we tighten our grip when life feels uncertain.

But control doesn’t bring peace - it just gets exhausting..

Letting go isn’t giving up.

It’s remembering who you are beneath the tension.

It’s honoring your needs and choosing presence over pressure.

Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do

is soften your hold and let yourself come home to yourself again.

Drop some 🪽🪽🪽if you’re ready to feel lighter.

On Mother’s Day - urgh, the washing machine of emotions!

A label 🏷️ a mother - full of expectation and identity?

The reality can be very different, … for a moment consider all the differences….its a long list and by no means exhaustive!

👉🏻For those who have lost mothers they loved and cherished
👉🏻For those who have lost mothers who they did not
👉🏻For those mothers who have known the loss of a child
👉🏻For those mothers who have gained children they have not born themselves
👉🏻For those who have never known their mother
👉🏻For those who go no contact
👉🏻For those who had mothers who rejected, neglected or abused them
👉🏻For those who are mothers that can’t let go or have mothers that cannot let go of them
👉🏻For those mothers who long to re-discover a new identity
👉🏻For those mothers who are not defined by their role as mother
👉🏻For those mothers who would have made another choice
👉🏻For the mothers who made another choice and live in regret
👉🏻For those mothers who hold on to that identity for its safety
👉🏻For those mothers who care for their own mothers like their child
👉🏻For those mothers who care for others that are not their own
👉🏻For the non mothers out of choice or life’s deliverance who have all the love to give
👉🏻For the mothers who are struggling with the empty nest
👉🏻For the mothers told that ‘they didn’t have a real job’
👉🏻For the mothers whose spouse acts like another child
👉🏻For the mothers that raise children alone
👉🏻For the mothers where your children no longer see you as the mother but as the child
👉🏻 For the fathers that hold the role of mothers and fathers

❓Shall I go on? I am sure you can add more…

Your role is entirely subjective, there is no hierarchy, how you treat anyone and everyone is showing who you are, it’s complex and no one is more judged than a mother.

So, if you find yourself in any of the above 👆🏻 or something else then show yourself compassion, self care, forgiveness, grounding, space whatever else you might need on mother day 🙏🏻 ❤️ wishing you peace and serenity 🙌🏻
