It can sometimes feel like there’s just too much - so much on your plate that you don’t even know where to begin.

✨ You don’t have to deal with everything at once.

At the start of each counselling session, I often ask:
“What would you like to focus on today?”
“What feels most pressing to you right now?”

Trying to work through everything all at once can lead to overwhelm and hopelessness.
But when we break it down into smaller chunks, something shifts.
🪨 Clarity begins to appear.
🌀 Movement becomes possible.

Just one piece at a time.
That’s enough.
That’s where we begin.

This little apple tree has been shoved from pillar to post - dug up and replanted 3 times since arriving in my garden 2 years ago. Yet here it is still growing and standing strong.

It reminds me of Carl Rogers theory of 'actualisation' where he refers to the potatoes sprouting in a dark cupboard - reaching for a light never before seen.

Rogers believed that given the right conditions we all have the potential to grow

So many of us have our worlds uprooted and yet we carry on gaining strength and moving towards something greater that is just on the periphery of our awareness.

There is something within us all that longs for growth.

Whatever you may be facing this week I hope some light can find its way in.
Even the smallest glimmers can bring hope when things are feeling dark and heavy 🙏

When you’re standing on The Palm, you have no idea what it really represents. It feels like any other highway or beach
But from above, from a distance you see the whole picture.

It’s the same with life.
When you’re in it, it’s hard to make sense of what's really going on.
Sometimes, taking a step back is the only way to truly see what’s happening.
