How are you feeling today???

I'm feeling grateful 🧡 for the amazing connections I have in my life...
..for my family (who all live close by), my friends who have supported me and brought me joy (you know who you are) and of course my clients who provide me with my purpose in life and teach me new things every day 😊

Knowing how you're feeling is important — it’s like having an internal compass that helps you navigate life more consciously and effectively.

🌌 VISUALISATION 🌌

Visualisation isn’t just daydreaming. It’s a powerful mental practice rooted in neuroscience and psychology that can help you create your desired life.

The brain cannot tell the difference between real experiences and vividly imagined ones. When you engage in creative visualisation, your brain activates the same neural pathways as if you were physically experiencing the situation. This activates the release of hormones and neurotransmitters that are linked to the emotions you're imagining.

When you visualise, you’re sending a clear message to your subconscious mind. The more clearly and emotionally you picture your goals, the more your brain believes they’re achievable — shaping your behaviour, confidence, and opportunities.

Whether you envision success in your career, improved well-being, or more joy in your relationships, visualisation helps you mentally rehearse your desired reality and take aligned action.

Here’s how to get started:

🌟Choose one goal, close your eyes, and see it clearly in your mind's eye.

🌟 Engage all your senses—what do you see, feel, hear, and experience?

🌟 Do this regularly, and your subconscious begins to nudge you towards that vision, turning intention into reality.

When we hug or kiss our children something incredible happens in their brain 🥰

🧠 The nucleus accumbens and dopamine pathways light up, wiring joy and reinforcing connection.

🧠 The amygdala and hypothalamus, architects of emotion, ignite to nurture safety and belonging.

🧠 Oxytocin, the famed “love hormone,” floods both bodies, lowering stress, sealing trust and deepening attachment.

For the child, contact with their parent does more than soothe... it reduces stress by regulating cortisol, calming fears and nurturing emotional resilience.

Falling back into old patterns isn't always regression... it can be where self-realisation happens.

If you're more aware of your behaviours, more present to your feelings or how your body is physically responding, then that is growth!

If you are able to meet yourself with even an ounce of compassion or understanding, or respond differently, you are taking steps toward repair.

Healing isn't linear... it is a process that is unique to each individual. If you are learning about yourself, you are healing ✨️

The 'you' who you think you are does not exist.

Every individual sees the world through the lens of their own experiences, values, and emotions.

We tend to be very critical of ourselves, noticing flaws or failures that others don't see at all. At the same time, others might see qualities, strengths, or potential that we fail to recognise.

Seeing ourselves differently from how others see us is part of understanding who we truly are. It takes time and reflection to come to know our true identity, rather than the versions of ourselves we or others have constructed.

Therapy isn't about receiving advice. It also isn't about unconditional support. It’s purpose is to challenge you more than to teach you.

Consider therapy as finding yourself in
the middle of a hall of mirrors, surrounded by your reflections, with nowhere to hide. At the very core it helps you to gain a better insight into yourself.

Sounds scary? There may be a number of things holding you back from starting therapy:

💭 Fear of being judged - worrying that you may be criticised for past thoughts, behaviours or actions.

💭 Fear of vulnerability - opening up about deep, personal pain can feel terrifying.

💭 Fear of the unknown - starting therapy is stepping into unfamiliar territory.

However there are so many benefits to receiving support from the right therapist.

🩵 Because pain needs a place to go
Holding everything inside may feel “safer,” but it takes a toll. Therapy gives pain somewhere to be witnessed, processed, and transformed.

🩵 Because healing happens in safe connection. A good therapist offers a non-judgmental, confidential space. That experience of being truly seen and supported can be profoundly healing.

🩵 Because insight leads to empowerment
Therapy helps people understand themselves more deeply — and with that comes choice, clarity, and the ability to change what isn’t working.

If you’re on the fence, know this... you don’t have to feel 'broken' to go to therapy. You just have to be human. It's a space for growth, healing, and coming home to yourself.

We’re taught early in life that caring deeply is virtuous — that kindness and helpfulness make us good people. But what if that same emotional openness is what’s holding you back? What if constantly trying to please, explain, and seek approval is exactly what leaves you feeling drained, overlooked, and stuck?

This isn’t a call to become cold or distant. It’s about reclaiming your energy, your focus, and your sense of self. When you stop giving yourself away to everyone, you start being available for yourself.

You may believe that being kind will inspire kindness in return. That loyalty will earn you loyalty. That honesty will be rewarded with truth. But life doesn’t always reflect that. The more you give without boundaries, the more invisible you become.

Creating boundaries doesn’t mean you stop caring. It means you start being intentional about what you care about. You stop reacting to every emotional pull. You begin creating space between other people’s chaos and your inner calm.

There’s strength in being able to pause before responding. That small moment — that breath — puts you back in control. It allows you to act from choice rather than reflex. With time, this calm becomes your shield.

Every few months, check in on your relationships. Who uplifts you? Who only takes? Who respects your time, space, and limits? The answers will help you direct your care where it’s actually valued — and protect it where it’s not.

Let them call you distant. Let them wonder why you’ve gone quiet. That silence? That space? That’s you caring for yourself 🩵

🌞 The Summer Solstice is Tomorrow 🌞

From a therapeutic perspective, the longest day of the year invites us to pause, reflect, and realign.

As the sun reaches its peak, we too can check in with ourselves:

✨ What in your life is currently in full bloom?
🌻 What deserves more light and attention?
🍂 What might you be ready to release as the season turns?

This is a powerful time to honour growth, acknowledge challenges overcome, and set gentle intentions for the months ahead.

Whether you spend a moment outside in the evening sun or journal your thoughts, give yourself space to notice what this turning point means for you.

You are always allowed to begin again ☺️

What is detachment?

Detachment is the process of letting go and can help lead to greater clarity of ourselves and our relationships.

Here's how to practice healthy detachment:

🖤 People and situations are temporary. Accepting that not everything is meant to last
brings peace and freedom. Let go of the need to control relationships or outcomes. Flow with change to protect your peace of mind.

🤍 Set boundaries without guilt. Detachment isn't coldness. It's about creating space to
protect your well-being while still caring for others. Love and care deeply, but avoid becoming dependent or losing yourself in the process.

🖤 Let go of unhealthy attachments. If something drains your energy or no longer serves you, it's okay to release it. Clinging to unhealthy attachments prevents personal growth and keeps you stuck.

🤍 Focus on self-love. Pour the energy you give to others back into yourself. Detachment helps you value and prioritise your own well-being. You can't rely on others for your happiness... it must come from within.
