Did you know you can train the wise mind for greater self-confidence? ✨

The Wise Mind sits in the middle of two extreme ends, the emotional mind on one end and the rational mind on the other. Most people find themselves on either end of the spectrum, being either overly emotional or overly rational in their decisions and behaviors. The middle, however, often gets skipped over.

Building confidence and quelling self-doubt happens not on the ends, but smackdab right in the (Wise Mind) middle. Unfortunately, your default psychology is working against you as the brain likes to sit at the two ends and to miss the centre point altogether.

But the good news is, I can help you can learn to override this default response and cultivate middle-of-the-road wisdom. It’s a matter of applying a tactical habit-based set of exercises.

Let’s acknowledge the lack of understanding from western practitioners in mental health talking therapy spaces for marginalised ethnic women where issues stem from negative cultural practices that the majority of white english practitioners have no training about. If you’re doing an undergraduate in psychology keep going, we need you!! ❤️

Did you know CBT is not all about cognitive processes but looks at the mind body/sensory impacts how we experience distress/anxiety? If you can start breaking down how you think/feel/ in moments of panic and anxiety you can start to change and remove those responses!

Whose been charging their quartz crystals from the thunder and lightening on these hot summer days? I was sat on my balcony for hours today with the children watching the rain listening to the thunder. Children also release negative emotional charge in nature. Sunlight/Heat is also an excellent amplifier and charging crystals with positive energy whilst rain aids to transform and release and cleanse negative charge from your crystals that have been previously used. Learn all about the powerful use of the earths natural magnetic field to heal ❤️ I’m always fascinated to hear about your stories in your own healing journeys. For me crystals charge my home and amplify the positive charge ❤️ emotional wellbeing
