The "behavior iceberg" is a model that shows how visible behavior is just the tip, with deeper factors beneath the surface. Understanding behavior requires looking beyond what is observable to consider these hidden internal emotional states. Begin to become aware of what your behaviours may be indicating to start addressing the root causes of behavior, rather than just reacting to the surface actions. If you are looking for support in managing reactions and understanding your emotions then therapy may be benefical!

With depression and anxiety, we might often get stuck in unhelpful behaviours, following what our negative thoughts and worries are telling us to do. Next time you notice this happening, practice asking yourself - 'What would be a more self-compassionate behaviour?' and try doing this instead. This may go against your initial instincts, but think about what would be a kinder action, helpful for your future self and aligned with the goals you are working towards?

Mindfulness doesn’t always require a long meditation or a quiet space — sometimes it’s simply about bringing your full attention to a small, everyday moment. Something as simple as sipping your morning tea or coffee can become a grounding ritual when you slow down and notice what’s happening through your senses.

What does your drink feel like in your hands? How does it smell, taste, or warm you from the inside? These tiny check-ins help calm the nervous system, create presence, and offer a moment of peace amidst a busy day.

Could you give yourself even one mindful moment today?

You don’t need to apologize for taking up space and honoring your needs.

We often say “sorry” for things that are simply part of being human—but you don’t have to.

You are allowed to:
✨ Ask questions
✨ Communicate your needs
✨ Take time out
✨ Prioritise your wellbeing
✨ Respond in your own time
✨ Choose your own path

Tuning into your needs isn’t a luxury—it’s part of living honestly and sustainably. You deserve to show up as your full self, no apology needed. 🌱

✨ The Cycle of Emotional Regulation ✨

Ever feel overwhelmed by your emotions? You're not alone—and there is a way to move through them with more ease and self-compassion. 💖

Here’s a simple, powerful 4-step cycle to help you regulate your emotions:

1️⃣ Notice & Name
Identify what you're feeling. Giving it a name helps make it manageable.

2️⃣ Accept Emotion
Remind yourself: it’s okay to feel this. Your emotions are valid. Be kind to yourself.

3️⃣ Be Curious
Ask: How does this emotion feel? Where do I feel it in my body? What is it trying to tell me?

4️⃣ Allow & Release
Let the emotion come and go like waves. Breathe deeply. Let it move through you and release.

💫 Emotional regulation is a skill—and every cycle you go through helps you grow. Be gentle with yourself 🤍

As humans, we are going to experience a large spectrum of emotions. Sometimes when these emotions feel strong and intense, we may quickly react in a way that is not helpful to us without even realising it. Once we can accept our emotional state, recognise they are always changing and tune into what we are feeling, we can choose to respond in a way that aligns with our values.

While some people cope well with not knowing what to expect, others find it hard to manage uncertainty. Learning to cope with uncertainty can help you reduce anxiety and feel more secure or confident when making decisions. One way of doing this is to gradually introduce uncertain events into your life. Try to embrace uncertainty by experimenting with some of the tasks below:
- Walk a different route
- Try a new class
- Go somewhere you haven't been
- Talk to someone you don't know

These are some examples, but try setting yourself your own experiment to begin embracing uncertainity within your life!

Deep breathing is not going to change the situation, but it will help physically calm us down and regulate our breathing when our fight and flight response is activated. Once we have managed to slow down and reset, we can decide the next best step.
