Sometimes, in our hardest moments, it can feel like every negative feeling, every painful experience, will last forever. But they don’t. Every struggle has an end. When you feel incapable, remember that these moments pass. Let that thought guide you, even if it’s just for now.🤍
أحياناً، في أصعب لحظاتنا، قد نشعر أن كل شعور سلبي، وكل تجربة مؤلمة، ستستمر إلى الأبد. لكنها لا تدوم. كل صعوبة لها نهاية.
عندما تشعر بالعجز، تذكّر أن هذه اللحظات ستمر. اسمح لنفسك أن تتمسّك بهذه الفكرة، حتى لو بدا ذلك صعباً الآن.
فما تشعر به اليوم ليس دائماً… بل مرحلة، وسوف تنقضي🫶

When those harsh, negative thoughts creep in, pause and be gentle with yourself. 🔎Ask, ‘Is my brain tricking me, or is there real evidence to these thoughts?’ 👀 If things go out of your control and the negative thoughts get really intense especially in these days don’t forget to seek help. You are
enough, exactly as you are🫶
عندما تتسلل تلك الأفكار السلبية القاسية، خذ لحظة وكن لطيفاً مع نفسك. اسأل نفسك: ‘هل يخدعني عقلي، أم أن هناك دليلاً حقيقياً لهذه الأفكار؟’ إذا خرجت الأمور عن سيطرتك، وازدادت الأفكار السلبية شدة خاصة في هذه الأيام لا تنسَ أن تطلب المساعدة. TrustYourself

Every call, every message from mom is a reminder of love. Don’t wait until the silence to wish you answered.
كل مكالمة أو رسالة من امك هي دليل على الحب. ما تستنى لما يختفي الصوت وتندم إنك ما كنت موجود🤍

In times of uncertainty when nothing feels certain, and each day holds its own weight of anxiety it’s natural to feel lost.
We don’t always have answers or a clear path, and that can bring a deep sense of unease.
Just know that these feelings are real, and it’s okay to sit with them, without needing immediate solutions.

I see the weight of guilt many carry when life moves on during war, when we smile, work, or even take a breath of peace. It doesn’t mean we forget, but it means we survive. #لبنان

Taking a daily walk isn’t just movement, it’s a pause for your mind. Lower stress, lift your mood, and find clarity with each step.

Every week, during my home visits, a part of our sessions is dedicated to discussing a journal. I make sure the senior reads the journal before our session, and then, during our time together, he shares what he’s read. This simple ritual grounds retired seniors connecting them to daily life, the news, and the wider world. Through staying informed, they stay empowered, engaged, and connected.

If you feel anxious before your appointments, know that you’re not alone. Appointment anxiety is real, but you can manage it step by step. Breathe, remind yourself of your courage, and take it one visit at a time. You’ve got this! ”

As a psychologist, I often see the confusion between self-love and selfishness. In this video, I explore how self-love is a vital, healthy practice not a luxury, especially for our elders. When we value our own opinions and care for ourselves, we model a life of balance and self-respect. You deserve love without guilt.
كأخصائية نفسية، أرى كثيراً من الخلط بين حب الذات والأنانية. في هذا الفيديو، أشرح كيف أن حب الذات هو ممارسة صحية وأساسية ليس ترفاً، خاصة لكبار السن. عندما نقدر آراءنا ونهتم بأنفسنا، فإننا نُظهر حياة متوازنة مليئة بالاحترام الذاتي. أنت تستحق الحب
