Hoi Züri 👋🏽👋🏽

➡️ Yesterday we posted about How to stop being a people pleaser…. which provoked many questions to us about HOW and WHY one becomes a people pleaser

👉People pleasers are not created over night. This trait stems from a deep rooted experience of either lack of attention from emotional unavailable parents, or to feeling left out at school

👉During our youth, we are incredible impressionable & form opinions of ourselves based on our acceptance from those around us

💫✨ Although it is easier said than done to stop people pleasing, we want you to know it is possible.

You’re not alone in your journey to finding personal peace & wir sind für euch da, Züri 🤍

Bis Später, tschüss ! 👋🏽👋🏽👋🏽

Hoi Züri 👋🏽

Let’s start Monday off right. Let’s talk about “People Pleasing.”

➡️Do you often feel pressured to go against your gut feeling just to help someone else ?

➡️ Does the fear of confrontation stop you from saying “NO” - even when you really want to?

➡️ Do you have certain people around you that instantly trigger angst and stress?

👉We MUST pay attention to what WE want, and not give into the needs of others. You have every right to say NO, or I DON’T want to…. Without fear of retaliation.👈

🤍Give yourself the same love that you give to others.

Remember two things:
1️⃣ An “emergency” in someone else’s world does not constitute an emergency in yours.

2️⃣ Only YOU teach people how to treat you.

Bis Später, Züri 👋🏽👋🏽 tschüss !

In honour of World Bipolar Day, we wanted to share a snippet from Sarah’s podcast, regarding her experience living with Bipolar Disorder 🖤🤍

👉 Sarah speaks openly and freely about her highs and lows, and how she was able to find stability through therapy and the right medical help.

👉She was absolutely an INCREDIBLE person to get to know. She is strong, resilient and pretty hilarious 😂

➡️The stigma surrounding Bipolar Disorder can only be broken through awareness, conversation and listening.

Cheers to you, Sarah & all of the other beautiful humans living with Bipolar Disorder 🖤🤍

Wir sind für euch da.

Bis Später, Züri! Tschüss 👋🏽👋🏽

Hoi Züri👋🏽👋🏽

➡️Did you know that March 30 is World Bipolar Day?🤍🖤

➡️Although this is not a modern issue & actually dates back to Ancient Greece… it is still incredibly prominent in today’s society.

Bipolar Disorder can dramatically affect someone’s mood & may result in manic or depressive episodes.

World Bipolar Day educates and raises awareness to the spread of information, so that we can better understand, learn, and appreciate those around us who are living with Bipolar Disorder.

🤍🖤We support you. We hear you. We love you. Wir sind für euch da, Züri 🤍🖤

Here are some ways to support those around you.

Bis spater, Züri ! Tchüss 👋🏽👋🏽

Hoi Züri👋🏽👋🏽

…. speaking of taking breaks 😜

➡️We have been working very hard (and nonstop) to collect all of the most essential, passionate, and talented mental and physical health resources located in Zurich.

➡️We have been learning, growing, networking, website designing, dancing, laughing, meeting, recording podcasts, taking classes, working out and working hard. 💪💃🕺

…. So we think we need a little break. 😌

We wanted to let you all know that from March 10-27, we will be taking a Self Care Break.

We posted yesterday the importance of taking care of your biggest investment: YOU.

We are a company that practices what we preach, we walk the talk, we REALLY mean it when we say mental health is real… and very important. 🤍

We cannot wait to see you all when we’re back & we wish you a beautiful March.

Liebe Grüsse, bis später … tschüss Züri 👋🏽👋🏽

Hoi Züri 👋🏽👋🏽

Have you ever felt like the walls were closing in around you? Like your to-do list seems to never end ? Or like you are overwhelmed at even the smallest tasks?🤔🥸

Maybe it is time that you consider taking a break. 🙏🏽

No… we don’t mean an extended holiday filled with family and friends… we mean a real break.

➡️ Spending some time alone, or spending time focusing only on things that make you happy is proven to increase the state of your mental health

➡️Failing to realize when you need a break can ultimately lead to burnout and depression

➡️You owe absolutely no one an apology or an excuse for taking time for YOU

YOU are the biggest investment you will ever make. 🤍

….. and on that note…

Bis später Züri, tschüss ! 👋🏽👋🏽

Hoi Züri 👋🏽👋🏽

To all of the business owners, moms, entrepreneurs, creatives, aunts, wives, hustlers, sisters, and role models out there… we see you. 👀

The world is a better place because YOU are in it.🙏🏽

“Here’s to strong women. May we know them. May we be them. May we raise them.”

Hoi Züri 👋🏽👋🏽

We wanted to share with you something we saw yesterday (right before enjoying some time at 😜)

TEACH PEACE. ☮️

We often forget, that basic human fundamentals are what can guide us through our lives. We strive so hard to make bold change, that being nice, peaceful and respectful can fall by the wayside.

➡️Not everyone will agree with your beliefs or your desire for change

➡️There is no need to be angry with those who develop a bit slower than you, and aren’t as ready to accept the changing world

➡️➡️💯But what IS necessary is to be peaceful and respectful, and to teach peace where ever you can 🕊

When we learn the importance of teaching peace, we subconsciously lower our own walls, and learn to understand others with more open-minds.🤍

Peace is what the world yearns for , but that means we have to implement it into our daily lives. ✨

However you choose to spend your Saturday, make sure you lead with love and peace. 💙💙

Sending you so much love, Züri. Bis später, tschüss 👋🏽👋🏽

Hoi Züri 👋🏽👋🏽

Today is World Teen Mental Wellness Day. This is to bring awareness not only to the mental wellbeing of our worlds teenagers, but also to the families struggling to understand what their teen is going through 🤍

With teenagers today having more access to the world through social media than ever before, we are facing a steep increase in depression, anxiety, insecurities and fears.

The best things we can do is be there for them. Sit with them, talk to them, normalize their feelings & assist in finding someone for them to talk to.

We cannot be everything for everyone, but we can be supportive. 🙏🏽

Remember, they are our future. Protect them at all costs. 🤩

Schönen Tag, Züri… bis später ! 👋🏽👋🏽

23/02/2022

Hoi Züri👋🏽👋🏽

We are a community that deserves the right to feel free from the things that drag us down. We are all in this together. 🤝

Here are a few snippets of their podcast. Can’t wait for you all to hear the full story 😉

Hoi Züri 👋🏽👋🏽

Happy Valentine’s Day ! ❤️

Now, before you roll your eyes & keep scrolling, just give us a chance.

We know that some people find this day exceptionally hard. It’s a day where couples flaunt their love, we see red and pink flowers and hearts all over & the prices of chocolate is higher than ever ! 🙄😂

➡️What we should remember though, is that this day IS associated with love & the greatest love you will EVER have is with yourself.💙

➡️Whether you’re going out on a romantic date, spending time with friends and family , or even if you’re just taking some time for yourself… don’t forget todays theme: LOVE. ❤️

Treat yourself. Call a platonic friend.
Hug your loved ones for a few extra seconds. Hold the door for a stranger. Give someone your seat on the tram.

However you choose to spend today, just lead with Love 🤍

We are sending you BIG LOVE today Züri. Wir sind für euch da 🎉

Bis später, tschüss 👋🏽👋🏽💖

Hoi Züri 👋🏽👋🏽

Most of us in our lives struggle with the phrases and terms that people use around us when we are feeling our lowest.😔

Sometimes, what seems like support, can actually make the person who is suffering, feel much worse.

Instead of using the phrases we have listed above, try saying things like:

➡️ “I am here for you, no matter what.”

➡️ “I know that there is a lot that can go wrong, but what can go right?”

➡️ “It‘s probably hard to be positive right now. I am here to cheer you up the best I can.”

➡️ “It’s pretty normal to have some negative feelings in this situation. You’re not alone in how you feel.”

➡️” I know things seem hard, but I have seen your resilience before & I know your strength will get you through it.”

➡️ “It is important to let it out. What can I do to make this easier for you?”

We all have struggles, and pain, and severe moments of loneliness and weakness… but we are NOT alone.🤲🏽

If you find the people around you giving you unhelpful positivity, you should kindly and calmly explain to them how this affects you.

You have a voice too & you deserve to speak up 🤍

We wish you a great rest of your day Züri 🔆🥳

Hoi Züri👋🏽

One of our favourite parts about building UP Zürich from the ground up, is the connections we make 🤍

We were able to finally connect with and learn more about her, her mission, and how we align in wanting to make sure no one feels alone. 👏🏽👏🏽

She creates podcasts in Swiss German, where real people tell their real stories surrounding mental health struggles & their experiences through life. 🔆

We look forward to our future endeavours separately and together. We all agree that we are ➡️NOT⬅️ in a competitive field .. and whomever wants to break the stigma with us… is always welcome. 🤲🏽

Sending much love to you all on this beautiful Friday. Schönen Wochenende alles 😘

Bis später, tschüss Züri👋🏽

Hoi Züri👋🏽👋🏽

Today is Optimism Day… did you know this always falls on the first Thursday of February 😁

When we are feeling at our lowest, or when we are feeling real symptoms of depression and anxiety, we know that is seems very hard to try and be optimistic 🤍

If you are able to challenge yourself & try to be optimistic… there are actual benefits for your mental health 🧠

➡️ An optimistic attitude helps us to be happier 😁 more successful 👑 and healthier 💪.

➡️Optimism can protect against depression, even for people who are at risk for it

We hope that you find something to be optimistic about today, Züri 🎉

Bis später, tschüss 👋🏽👋🏽
