I have to admit that I cried reading this book.

A heartfelt and honest look at mental health through the eyes of a trained Midwife. Reiki Therapy By Debbie account of the pressures that are placed on health care providers is heartbreaking.

I hope that people reading her book, will help them to show themselves some compassion. Also, to understand, that therapy does work, but it is not a quick fix. Healing can take different approaches being applied before there is change.

Self care is about taking the prescribed medication. Trying different therapy models, being open minded about somatic healing and energy work. Read the self help books, watch the videos, listen to podcasts. Talk to someone, go for a run walk the dog, journal, draw etc. Basically, build your own tool kit of coping mechanisms. At various stages of your healing, you will need different things.

I loved this book for her honesty, for being vulnerable and willing to support others.

Thank you Debbie for all that you do. Xx

Father's Day.

A gentle reminder that it is OK if you..

🤍 Find today difficult. Not everyone had/has a good relationship with a father figure.

🤍 You want to have some time to yourself, to grieve or hold space for whatever emotions come up for you.

🤍 To post amazing pictures and heartfelt dedications to the father/father figure who is/was your best friend. Your protector, biggest cheerleader. Just because this time of year can be hard for some doesn't mean you can't celebrate the joy you feel.

🤍 To take a break from social media if you feel sad and upset.

🤍 To keep things private, to not share with the world or others, what is going on today.

🤍 To be kind to yourself if you had/have a challenging relationship with a father figure. Allow yourself to experience and enjoy even just one happy memory. Just because the bad might outweigh the good doesn't mean that you cannot have peace, only remembering the good.

To those father figures who step up where others have stepped down. To the father figures who have loved, protected, and helped their children to feel safe. I hope today is filled with love and acknowledgement for the amazing person you are.

To those of you who are struggling today. I extend love, compassion, understanding, and a giant hug. This time of year is also hard for me for many reasons. You are seen, heard, and loved.

Be kind to yourself, to those who are struggling, but also allow those who have good relationships with their father figures to express that joy, free from suppression.

Just ordered this fantastic book by Reiki Therapy By Debbie. I am a firm believer that trauma can lead us to be healers of the mind, body and spirit. From the moment I had my first session, I felt so at ease. Yes I value therapy (obviously) however, I also feel that we need a holistic approach to our overall wellbeing. My own personal trauma led me to be a counsellor. A job i absolutely love. My history, my experiences mean that I can truly empathise with my clients. I cannot wait to read this book, and find out more about this amazing woman.

My office for the afternoon...💻🚐☕️

I really wanted to post this from a beautiful nature reserve, surrounded by trees and tweeting birds, BUT I decided I would take a more proactive approach to managing my overwhelm today; and instead I'm parked up at one of those industrial washing machines instead 🤣.

I figured I would feel MUCH more productive going home with completed EHCP admin AND clean and dry laundry! Genius right??

The reason for my post is to remind you all that we do a lot of our work on weekends, so if you are thinking about waiting until Monday to get in touch, there is no need.

As Home Educating, full time carers, we squeeze in what we can through the week but often have a lot more capacity at weekends! So never worry about sending those 'out of hours' emails.

We don't do typical business hours, we don't really do typical business 😬
