Loneliness doesn’t always mean being alone. Sometimes it’s sitting in a room full of people but feeling invisible. If this is you, let me say right now that you are seen, you are worthy, and you are not alone.

***Friday finally!***

Finally the end of what feels like a loooooong week, with a return to work for me after 2 weeks on holiday and then straight into the school transition. Did every school run need to be rainy though?!

How's it gone for you?

For many women in their 40s and 50s, perimenopause can feel like someone’s stolen your calm. Anxiety you thought you’d moved on from, can suddenly flare up again.

You’re not going mad, with the right support, you can feel steady again.

So many clients tell me they feel ‘behind in life’. Behind compared to friends, behind in their careers, behind in the home they live in, behind in ticking all the boxes.

But the simple truth is, there is no timeline, only your time.

You’re not behind, you’re right where you are meant to be.

***GOOD LUCK KIDS***

Good luck to all those children making school traditions this week. Whether it's a new school, classroom or teacher, change can be scary.

Lets help our young people embrace this exciting new journey.

Remember whatever feelings are felt (by them and us!), they are all valid, and they can do this surrounded by love and support as they take this brave step forward.

It's only the first week in September and the "C" word has cropped up multiple times in session. Anyone else suddenly realise Christmas is less than 4 months away and feel their chest tighten? You're not the only one.

Take a deep breath, one day, one step at a time.

🌟 Ready to tackle anxiety and boost your confidence?

My aim at The Mind Loft, is that you learn that overcoming the thoughts, feelings and behaviours that have been holding you back is possible. And as well as being possible, it is also a journey that we can navigate together.

I know how lonely anxiety is, and this is one part you don't have to do alone.

Join me in my private office (or online if that's your bag) within a mental health hub in Redditch, as we learn practical tips, share insights and celebrate your wins, all aimed at enhancing your mental well-being.

I now have 4 slots available for September so feel to drop me a DM if you want to find out a little more or if you'd like an informal chat to get to know me a little better.

***Online Bullying***

I am outraged by the relentless online bullying that young footballer Skye Stout, and millions of other children & teens face every day. It’s infuriating that people feel entitled to tear others down based on their appearance.

Every hurtful comment can cut deep, impacting self-esteem and mental health at such a vulnerable age. An age where a young person is discovering just who they are as a person.

Those who thought they had a right to comment on a teenage girls acne should ask themselves how they would feel if their own daughters, nieces, or sisters were the targets of such cruelty.

As always, choose empathy over judgment and lift each other up instead of tearing each other down. The online world can be an equally wonderful yet terrible place, but we have the power to create a supportive online community, and it starts with us.

A panic attack is your mind’s way of saying, “Something’s not right and I need you to pay attention.”

It’s not trying to hurt you, it’s asking for care, calm, and understanding.

What could you do to listen to yourself in those moments?
