🌟 Who else experiences that age-old issue where you get to the end of the day and despite running around like a headless chicken, you feel like you haven't achieved a thing? 🌟

This has been a recurring theme in my life for years, both at work and at home and I was tired of letting it get me down.

Recently, I've embraced a bit of mindfulness to help. Whenever I complete a task, it goes on my "Ta-Da" list. This is separate from my To-Do list, allowing me to focus on achievements without getting distracted or disheartened by unfinished tasks.

🎉 Anything can make the Ta-Da list, big or small. If it took effort, it's worth celebrating! 🎉

I've diarised 10 minutes at the end of each day to reflect on my Ta-Da list. Then, in a practice inspired by the wonderful Mel Robbins, I walk to a mirror, smile and give myself a high 10 🙌 - Trust me..it might feel odd at first, however the positive wellbeing benefits are truly impactful, leaving me with a warm fuzzy feeling and a restful night's sleep.

Does this sound like something which could benefit you? What are your tips and tricks for managing a hectic work and home life?

The effects of stress and burnout can really take its toll on your nervous system, leaving it in a constant state of "Fight, Flight, Freeze".

In these moments we don't always remember the best thing to help, so I'm sharing this little nugget as a reminder.

This is a fabulous film, which really shines a light on not only the external, but also the internal struggles of all those who have lived their lives feeling misunderstood.

Despite everything, there’s still hope for the future thanks to wonderfully creative awareness pieces like this.

Please share with your networks to help spread the knowledge.

Often when Autism is talked about it focuses on an external profile of autism, based on how much someone's behaviour is affecting someone else. Many people don't realise that there's also a more internal profile of autism which is not found by looking for external behaviours, at least no...
