LOOK INTO THE EYES

I look at his eyes and I see sadness, it looks almost like he has a tear running down his eye.

It also makes me think of how looks can be deceiving.

How people can look one way on the outside but we don’t necessarily know how they feel on the inside.

Is he making you think he’s sad and then suddenly pounces when you get close, or is it the opposite? Does he look fine on the outside but deep down inside he’s unhappy.

Years ago people believed I was very confident, but on the inside I was so sad, lonely and depressed. All people saw was a smiley happy person who liked to have fun. For me joking around, being funny and witty was a way of covering up how I truly felt.

You never know, unless they’ve been honest, how someone truly feels deep inside. Putting on a “brave face”, “masking” their true feelings and emotions and how it effects their well being.

When was the last time you asked someone how they REALLY felt, when was the last time someone asked you?

Over thinking can weigh you down.

All those what ifs and whys mean your focusing on either the future or the past. Being in the now is what’s more important.

You can’t change what happened before, but you can change how you feel about it. Thought, feeling, action, outcome. By changing how you feel about something that has happened it will have a different outcome, so those things you worried about having said or done will no longer have the same effect on you.

Worrying about the future and about something that hasn’t even happened yet, can often be blown out of proportion. Think what’s the worst that can happen, then think how likely is that to happen.

If you struggle with any of this, then I can help you feel differently about the past and not worry so much about the future. Now how good would that feel. Just picture how calm your mind would be and how good that would feel if you could stop listening to that mind monkey.

Signs of Anxiety

When Anxiety Shows Up in Your Body

Have you ever had a random ache or pain and thought, “Where on earth did that come from?”

Anxiety doesn’t always shout from the mind, sometimes it whispers through the body.

If you have tense shoulders, a stiff neck, an aching back… these can all be signs that your nervous system has been in ‘fight or flight’ for too long.

When we feel anxious, our muscles tighten, often without us even noticing. Over time, that tension turns into soreness or even chronic pain.

Here are a few quick ways to help.

Check in with your body throughout the day, unclench your jaw, (this is where I carry a lot of mine), drop your shoulders.

Take some slow, deep breaths to signal to your nervous system you’re safe.

Gentle stretches or movement can help release stored tension. Think yoga, or Vagus nerve exercises.

Your body is always sending messages, so the more you listen, the easier it is to respond with kindness and care. Self care is important.

I’m just back from Paris and have done loads of walking so today I’m listening to my body and resting my tired legs & feet.

Stop beating yourself up.

Do you give yourself a hard time for not doing well?

Do you shout at yourself and call yourself names when you get something wrong?

Think about when you were young, did you parents shout at you? How did it make you feel. I’m guessing that it didn’t make you happier.

So why give yourself a hard time when you’re struggling!!

When you’re beating yourself up or shouting at yourself for not doing well or for making mistakes there’s a part of your mind that’s resisting happiness.

Every part of your mind is trying to keep you safe, well & happy, that’s your unconsciouses sole job. But there’s parts of your mind that’s running old programmes, old ways of behaving and reacting. Those parts think they’re doing the right thing but they’re perhaps getting it a little wrong and moving in the wrong direction.

Beating yourself up won’t inspire you to do well, it won’t inspire a better effort.

What’s needed is to retrain or reprogram your mind. Your mind would be happy to do something different. It just needs told how to do that.

By retraining your mind to do the things that make you feel good it will help you to stop beating yourself up and shouting at yourself for the things you feel you did wrong.

Work out why your mind feels that way and then find a way to inspire a better way.

Treat yourself with kindness and build yourself up.

How old do you think you are?

At some point in your life someone might have said to you “How old do you think you are!!”, when you’ve said or done something.

I remember saying to my mum “You’re not as young as you used to be” when she’d been sitting on the floor with one of her great grandchildren and was trying to get back up again. But she felt young and ok she maybe needed a little hand to get up, after all she was in her 90’s, so who was I to tell her she couldn’t behave that way. She loved being with the little ones and if that meant being on the floor playing their games then that’s what she’d do.

I’ve told myself on many occasions that “I’m too old for this 💩” when I’ve tried something new. But I’m not old, so it’s just an excuse. In reality I often forget how old I am. I still feel like I’m in my 40’s at best.

I saw this question asked on a friends post and I thought it was a great question.

If you had no idea of your age how old would you say you are?

I’d love to hear what you say.

What a relief

You heard what might have been bad news and then find out it’s not as bad as you had believed it to be, you feel relieved.

Chances are you will have taken in a deep breath and let out a sigh of relief.

When people think of sighing they might think of the kids sighing and moaning, or sighing when you feel sad or tired.

But did you know that sighing can be good for you. If you smile as you sigh or let out a pleasant high out breath rather than a low one that it can help reduce stress and anxiety?

If you feel anxious shake your body while you yawn and give yourself several big sighs of relief for a minute or two. You can force a yawn my simply wiggling your jaw. Loosen your muscles and wiggle your joints to release any tension and blocked energy. Make pleasurable sounds as you sigh.

If you do this several times throughout the day when you feel stressed or anxious you’ll help reduce those feelings and it will soon become a natural thing for you to do.

I like to take a few moments to just let out a sigh or two before I settle down to do work or sometimes just because.

Give it a go and let me know in the comments if you notice a difference in how you feel.

The pen is mightier than the sword

The above statement means that the written word is more effective than violence, but the pen can be quite a powerful tool in dealing with your well being and mindset.

I am a firm believer that if you write down your negative thoughts, feelings and emotions that they can no longer have a strong hold on you.

I remember one time when I went to see a therapist when dealing with childhood trauma that I’d sat up for hours just writing and writing about the thoughts that came into my head, about how I felt and I just let the emotions flow. I think I wrote about 4 or 5 pages. By the time I’d done I felt so much better. It was no longer occupying my mind.

In the book The Body Keeps The Score by Bessel van der Kolk he talks about a group of students that they worked with. The students were split into 3 groups. Some were asked to write down about their traumas.

The ones who did, benefited the most. Their mood had improved, which also meant a more positive attitude. It also helped them realise how much their trauma had affected them. By writing it down it helped them understand how they felt and why.

By writing down your thoughts and feelings to what ever it is you’re holding onto helps you let it go.

Maybe it’s a conversation you keep replaying, maybe it’s something you wishes you’d said, maybe you have pent up anger about something that happened. What ever it is grab a pen and start writing ✍️. Let whatever comes up come up. It doesn’t have to make sense and you don’t need to worry about spelling or punctuation. Just get it out your mind onto the page.

And my suggestion is once you’ve done that…burn it 🔥.

My Seeds of Gratitude journal has a place for you to write down daily something you want to let go off. Obviously it’s not designed for burning, but once it’s out your head it doesn’t have the same hold on you.

Have you ever written down your thoughts and feelings and then burned it and if so how did you feel after it?

Seeing the good instead of the bad

This weeks blog comes after having a conversation with a very close friend about how they seemed to be focusing on the negative things that had been happening lately rather than focusing on the good things people had said or done.

Grab yourself a cuppa and have a read and see if any of it resonates with you.

Where do you focus most, is it on the positive or negative?

Signs of Anxiety

This weeks sign of anxiety is Agoraphobia.

Maybe you want to go out but feel that you can’t. You’re not alone.

For many agoraphobia can make leaving the house feel like stepping into danger.

It’s not being lazy or dramatic, it’s about feeling unsafe in the world.

You might worry you’ll have a panic attack.

You might fear getting stuck somewhere unfamiliar.

You might make excuses because explaining the fest is just too exhausting.

This fest can often grow from trauma, past panic attacks or even long term anxiety and it might feel like you’ve lost control over your own life.

But…

You can take your power back.
You can feel safe again.
And you don’t have to do it alone.

Silent Counselling helps clients gently face the fear without actually reliving it, it resets their response and helps them feel confident stepping back into their life.

It all starts with one small supported step at a time.

There’s no need to stay trapped behind closed doors.

It’s up to you

You and you alone are responsible for your own life.

It’s up to you to make the decisions you need to move from victim to victor of your life.

Maybe something happened to you that you feel is unforgivable, perhaps it was something that was said, it might be a business problem or a personal problem, but you have to make the choice to either let it bring you down or to learn from it and move on.

Taking responsibility for your choices let’s you choose how you respond to the challenges you face.

Taking responsibility also changes your energy. Your thoughts, feelings, words and actions are all energy.

Here’s a few ways where you can take responsibility for your self.

💭 Your thoughts, feelings & actions

By taking responsibility for your thoughts, and accepting that they are thoughts that you have created, whether good or bad, how you feel will be affected by those thoughts.

🛑 Stop blaming

If a driver cuts in front of you and you get angry, that’s your choice. If you feel frustrated because something isn’t going the way you planned, that’s your choice. It’s not the driver who cut in front or you or the person who changed the plans fault. You made the decision to feel that way in that moment. So stop blaming, your parents, partner, work colleagues for how you feel.

🛑 Stop complaining

Complaining is another form of blaming and being a victim. It shows you focus on what you don’t have so you come from a place of lack. Things do go wrong. Learn from it.

🛑 Stop taking everything personally.

This was a big thing for me, if someone didn’t want to meet up or do something with me I saw it as they didn’t like me or being around me. If people say something to you or disagree with you don’t take it as a personal attack. You don’t have control over those people, you only have control over how you respond. Instead of assuming it’s about you ask yourself “is this about me, or about the situation, or is there something else this person is going through”

😃 Make yourself happy

Be responsible for your own happiness. Happiness is an inside job. It’s not the job of your parents, partner, boss, friends, dog, child to make you happy. Listen to music you love, go to places that you like being, do acts of kindness. You do what makes you happy.

Take a moment, close your eyes, and think of what it is you want in your life and notice the shift in your energy.

The Anxiety Jar.

This is a simple way to quiet the noise when your head feels full of spiralling thoughts and what ifs.

Don’t carry all those thoughts around with you. Write each anxious thought down, no matter how small, silly, or overwhelming it feels, and then pop it into a jar. (Or a wee tub like I have).

You're not ignoring the worry. You’re acknowledging it and giving it a home that isn’t your mind.

Then, once a week (or whenever you're ready, but not every day), take a few minutes to read back through what you wrote.

When you do you’ll notice something powerful. Most of the things you worried about… never actually happened.

This isn’t just a jar. It’s a release. It’s proof that not every thought needs your energy.

In my Seeds of Gratitude journal (available on Amazon https://amzn.eu/d/cIYZAM7) I have created a space daily for letting go of things that no longer serve you.

Have you tried something like this before? Or will you give it a go this week? Let me know in the comments and feel free to share what your jar looks like if you make one!
