The Beckham feud has been shining a spotlight on family estrangement. Let’s take a closer look at few dynamics a without taking sides.

Just because we may like someone, or doesn’t mean that the bare good in every role doesn’t n their lives.

Januworry is real. It makes sense if you’re already exhausted so early in the year.

Our body and nervous system can take strain having to recalibrate after disrupted routines, late nights and the stimulation of the festive season.

Go easy on yourself with your expectations. Start small by first re-establishing your routine. Once you start to adjust, you can create bigger goals for yourself.

The best teachers in life are experience, heartache and repeated lessons. But they’ve shaped us into who we are today. And we will continue to learn and grow as we navigate different chapters.

Never stop learning. Never stop growing.

So we’ve heard that 😍

The best thing about taking a trip down memory lane is feeling gratitude for beautiful memories, for how we’ve grown, for how much we’ve overcome…and for the Valencia filter 😉

Instead of wondering what is wrong with someone that they are in therapy, rather applaud them for their commitment to their self development.

We are not the only person who heals by going to therapy. It also benefits all those we interact with, as our positive changes can have a greater ripple effect.

We sometimes mistake mental health to be feeling positive all of the time. However, someone who is mentally healthy does not suppress their emotions. They display appropriate emotions for the situation they are in.

It’s normal to feel disappointed when we don’t get the outcome you hoped for, or feel anxious when waiting for results of a biopsy.

Allowing oneself to feel is healthier than suppressing.

This simple practice makes us feel calmer by helping the nervous system shift out of fight-or-flight.

The bilateral stimulation helps our brain and body work in sync, resulting in us feeling calmer, regulated and grounded.

The best part is that you need no special tools and you can do it anywhere.

Good emotional regulation does not mean that one never feels negative emotions.

In fact, it means feeling all relevant emotions, while not being emotionally reactive.

I can’t believe how long it’s taken me to learn that another’s rudeness or abruptness is not about me.

I now realise that most people are moving through the world carrying more than we realise - unhealed wounds, unprocessed stress, dysregulated nervous systems…

I used to take others’ rudeness to heart. I would replay the interaction and see it an indication that u did something wrong.

I now know that others’ behavior is an indication of their inner world and not an indication of my worth.

This doesn’t mean that we need to tolerate unkindness, but rather that we don’t make it personal.
