Helping Parents Respond to Anger with Compassion 🌱

To be honest, I still get angry too 😅. It can be tricky to apply these tools when you’re too close to your own emotions—that’s why working with someone else can be so valuable 🤝.

The Meeting Anger for Parents program is offered one-to-one over four weeks 📆. Many parents have a moment that really clicks ✨—when they see the link between their own childhood and how they respond now. That understanding opens space for compassion 💛 and new ways to respond.

📩 Send me a message to chat about the program and see if it’s a good fit for you

Hello all 🌿✨

In my work, I often focus on clearing—taking the time to look beneath whatever is triggering stress. This means connecting with your thoughts 💭, feelings ❤️, body sensations 🌸, and memories 🕊️. I often use tapping (EFT) to help release any dysregulation in the body. The more we can clear what’s going on for us, the more we can show up fully and meet life as it is 🌟.

Lately, I’ve noticed that even with my own challenges, I can get caught up in thinking I should be able to fix things quickly ⏳, demanding that the problems disappear ❌, and feeling frustrated with myself for my choices 😣. Some of these issues have been bothering me for a long time—they just keep coming up 🔄. Whether it’s losing weight ⚖️, meditating more regularly 🧘‍♀️, or managing anger in a relationship 💔, I seem to face the same challenges again and again.

And that’s when I need to remind myself: Sweetheart, you need to spend time with these issues 🌱. You need to get curious about what’s happening 🔍. You need to feel the feelings, connect with the limiting beliefs, and truly understand that part of you that’s struggling 💛.

It’s about showing care and compassion for yourself and your journey 🌷—and sometimes, it also means handing it up to God 🙏 (or whatever higher power you connect with).

What doesn’t help is getting stuck in self-judgment 🚫, demanding that things change immediately, and letting the “should monster” 👹 take over.

Take your time ⏰, be gentle with yourself 🤗, and remember: growth happens when you approach yourself with curiosity and care, not pressure 💫.

And if you’d like some support with your own clearing work, I’d be happy to work with you 🌼. I have a few slots available for EFT or clarity sessions—online 💻 or face-to-face 🪑, during the day or in the evening 🌙.

☔️ Good morning from a rainy Donegal! Autumn has arrived 🍂 — short sleeves are tucked away, hot meals are back on the table 🍲, the heating is humming daily 🔥, and for some, the cosy glow of the fire is returning.

As I shared recently, I’m currently offering a limited number of sessions because of other commitments.

This week I’ve been so grateful for the variety of clients I’m working with 💛:
✨ Supporting three different parents individually through my Meeting Anger for Parents programme — a 4-week series (one hour per week). I’ve been offering this programme one-to-one for many years now, and it’s also available in a group format. For some, one-to-one sessions can offer parents a safe space, extra privacy, and the chance to personalise the course to what matters most to them.
✨ Working online 🌍 with a client from another country, using EFT to bring more calm and ease into their life.
✨ Meeting face-to-face with a client who’s exploring new confidence, weaving together life coaching and EFT to support their growth.

It is a real pleasure to walk alongside each person on their journey 🙏.

💡 Right now, I have space for two new clients, and in a few weeks, more slots will open for the Meeting Anger for Parents programme.

📞 If you’d like to explore working with me, I offer a free 15-minute consultation call to answer any questions. Or, if you already feel ready, you can book a session directly here: https://saraanderson.ie/life-coaching/

🌱 Get in touch — I’d love to hear from you.

🌅✨ Couldn't Sleep... So I Sat with the Birds 🕊️📖
Last night, sleep wouldn't come 😔

My mind was tangled in thoughts 🧠💭

I tossed and turned — but in the process of fighting wakefulness and demanding sleep, I fed those dragons 🐉… and peace was not mine to be had.

As the hours passed, I got fed up of the fight — and at sunrise 🌅, I grabbed my flask ☕ and my inspirational book 📚, and headed to the sea 🌊

There was no sunrise to see 🌥️ — but the birds were wide awake 🐦🎶

With no traffic, their morning concert was even more magical 🎵💛

I listened, I read, I reflected.
I asked for guidance 🙏✨

And somewhere in that quiet, I found a little peace 🌿🕊️

I feel grateful I made this choice. It was a blessing to be comforted and inspired by the sunrise community 🌅💞

Whatever is going on, we always have choice.
What kind of choices will bring you peace today? 🤍✨

Ever wake up feeling a bit glumpy—low on energy, tired inside?
That was me this morning.

Instead of pushing through, I -

Lowered my bar for the day

Offered myself kindness and reminded myself this will pass

Took slow, deep breaths (hand on heart, hand on belly)

Moved gently with a YouTube somatic video

Meditated for 10 minutes

Did some EFT tapping to clear my thoughts

Prayed and listened for guidance

Asked: What’s next? and felt drawn to go for a walk

I don’t have all the answers yet—but I feel calmer, clearer, and so much better than if I’d carried on ruminating and scrolling. I’m glad I chose to pause, reconnect with myself, and use simple tools to calm my system.

💭 What’s one thing you do when you’re feeling low on energy?

23/07/2025

Anxiety doesn’t always shout — sometimes it just quietly builds.

A part of us starts to feel anxious, but for many of us, we keep going. We push through, carry on, and try to ignore the part of us that’s struggling. But over time, this can lead to overwhelm, a ruminating noisy mind, or we might just feel completely floored, unable to deal with our day-to-day life

What if we did something different?

What if we paused when we noticed ourselves feeling unsettled?

Just a few moments to turn inward. To breathe. To listen. To tap. To pray. To practise whatever tools we know that can help bring us back to a calm state. To tend to that anxious part of us with compassion — and help it feel safe again.

I forget to do this myself. I’m still learning — still catching myself when I go off track. I don’t always feel peaceful, but I am learning how to meet those unsettled places with care. And I’ve learned how to guide others through this too.

The more we do this, the more we learn to befriend our anxiety instead of fighting it. We build trust with ourselves and strengthen our ability to return to calm.

✨ If this resonates and you feel ready for some support, feel free to message me. I offer one-to-one EFT sessions, and a free 15-minute call if you’d like to see how EFT could help.

If you’re struggling with overwhelm and anxiety and want change -
if you long for more peace, for life to feel more grounded and steady — you don’t have to do it alone. I’d love to support you. 💛

🌿 Calling all Donegal friends! 🧘‍♀️🧘‍♂️
Our lovely Community Meditation Group is on the lookout for a new venue in Donegal town for our Monday evening meditations, from 7:15pm to 9:00pm each week.
🕊️ We’ve been grateful to use the Solace Centre up until the end of July — it’s been a beautiful, peaceful space to gather and meditate together. As it’s no longer available after that, we’re now looking for a new home.

✨ We’re looking for a quiet, accessible venue that can comfortably fit a circle of 25 chairs.

☕ It would be great to have access to a small kitchen or somewhere we can make a cup of tea after the session.

💚 We’re a not-for-profit group, run entirely by volunteers, with a team of rotating meditation leaders from the local community. We have a maximum weekly budget of €30 to contribute toward room hire.

🧘 This is a secular community group, open to people of all backgrounds, faiths, or none. Whether you're brand new to meditation or have years of experience, you're very welcome. 🌈💛

💬 Many who’ve attended say that meditating in a group meets their needs for connection, belonging, and helps support and deepen their individual practice. There’s a quiet strength in coming together — even in stillness.

🌟 If you run or know of a space, hosting us could be a lovely way to support community wellbeing, connection, and calm in the heart of Donegal. It’s a peaceful, respectful group that brings good energy to any space.

🧘 Over the past 10 weeks, we’ve had around 14 people attending most weeks, with one week reaching up to 28 attendees. It’s a warm, welcoming space.

🙏 If you know of a space that might suit us, or if you’d like to find out more about joining, please drop me a message or comment below.
Let’s keep the peace flowing! ✨🌍💫

⭐ 5-Star Review on Google Business! ⭐

I’m so grateful for this feedback! It’s always powerful to see how EFT and coaching together can create real shifts.

📣 "After a chance meeting in a market in Donegal, I decided to do some EFT with Sara. Within a few hours there were massive shifts within me. I knew I had to see her again, so I soon after booked another appointment. She was so kind and understanding. She made me feel entirely welcome to open up and share things deep with in me. At stages she would bring in gentle humour and encouraging smiles to relieve the building tension inside me, I found this really helpful to me. Since my time with her I have experienced profound shifts in my life and have learned some valuable things in my own soul journey. I whole heartedly recommend this woman if you are looking for a gentle way to overcome blockages within yourself."

Thank you, Saraí Humble, for sharing your experience!
If you're curious about how this approach could support you, feel free to reach out. I offer a complimentary 20-minute consultation call if you'd like to explore how EFT and coaching could work for you. 💙
