How do you honour what you’ve been through?

Do you often wonder how you’ve managed to cope?

Do you feel like you can’t keep it together much longer?

Here’s a way to help your emotions and feelings to surface in a safe and gentle way 💕

Allow yourself to observe the pain. It’s there for a reason. Hear her voice and let her sit at the table for a bit.

Even better, invite her in. In reality the more you try to ignore, punish, or deny your pain, the stronger she becomes.

Please feel free to share with your own friends, family and community.

We never know what people may be living through.

Self Talk

Let's talk about self talk.

We all know that familiar little critic that sits inside, telling us we are not good enough, slim enough, pretty enough, smart enough.

It's the beast that sits deep within, waiting for its opportunity to sabotage and rob of us of our daily joy!

But, what if I was to tell you that you can control the 'beastie?'

Indeed, you can. The stories we tell ourselves manifest into daily life.

Controlling the critic inside requires some work. Like most things in life change takes time and some great 'editing tools' as I like to call them.

How we speak to ourselves is arguably the single most important factor in deciding what type of a day, week, month and even life we are going to live.

Message me if you'd like more information on controlling your inner beastie/critic.

Life is way too short to be living with a soul stealing, cruel and lying voice inside.

Awareness 👀

What if I told you that until you become aware of your ‘stuff’ you’re not going to be able to address it or move forward.

Often, we are not really aware of what’s going on at the deeper (subconscious) level, as the all powerful big gun kahuna, being the subconscious, may be hiding things from us for various reasons.

This is why Hypnotherapy prevails as one of my favourite mental health tools. It gets to the core, quickly and efficiently.

Consider hypnosis if you’ve tried mainstream therapy that has not moved you to awareness.

Quick little trip to the cabin for a refresh and some grounding before a big week ahead.

There's nothing quite like escaping into the bush to calm the mind and bring down inflammation in the body.

We did some wonderful jiggle therapy, danced, played, and grounded barefoot in the bush.

I'm always so grateful to be able to do this and send thanks to the universe for gifting me a love of mother nature.

A simple therapy of stopping to admire 'The Mother' in all her splendour.

This was sunset from my front lawn on Monday evening.

No filter, no tweaking, just a moment in time to enjoy simple pleasures.

Slowing down to appreciate our abundant gifts is often the best therapy. 😊

Trauma
by Vicki Childs, Reg Counsellor, Clinical Hypnotherapist.

Most people have experienced some form of trauma in their lives. Few of us get by unscathed.

Trauma is often defined as any single, ongoing, or cumulative distressing event that overwhelms our capacity to cope.

The causes and triggers of trauma are diverse and different for every individual. What may be considered traumatic for one person, may be something quite normal for another. Trauma is very much a personal response.

Below are the types of trauma we identify and work with as your therapist:

Acute Trauma
Complex Trauma
System Induced Trauma
Vicarious Trauma
Compassion Fatigue
Insidious or Historical Trauma
Epigenetic Trauma
*Not an exhaustive list, but the main culprits

When we are highly stressed or in situation that is unfamiliar and scary our limbic system sets off an alarm bell signalling danger. Our brains then release cortisol to help us feel and stay safe by using our Fight/Flight/Freeze/Face/Fawn instincts.

At this time, we either Engage (fight/face) or Disengage (flight/freeze).

Understanding your trauma and the why of how it makes you feel and react is the first step in the therapeutic journey.

Trauma may affect the following parts of your life;

Physical Health
Mental Health
Social Life
Relationships
Belief Systems
Executive Functioning
Learning and Memory Retention

Thankfully, there are ways we can regulate our responses and bring a dysregulated mind back to calm/regulation.

Pet Loss Grief Counselling

A lovely reminder that one of the counselling services we offer is that of Pet Loss Grief Counselling.

This is undoubtedly my most loved type of counselling and one that I always find so very rewarding.

Pets play a huge role in our lives, fulfilling many emotional states, such as joy, comfort, protection, and friendship.

It is not unusual for pet owners to refer to their pets as 'fur children' or even 'soul mates.'

When a beloved pet passes, the grief is immense. Many pet owners report amid the grief there is also a deep and foreboding sense of shame and embarrassment due to the overwhelming and sometimes completely debilitating reaction to the loss.

As we struggle with the grief process, many pet lovers find non pet lovers dismissive, or unable to understand the level of sadness and utter despair felt as our loyal and loving pets are no longer with us.

There are 3 Primary types of Bonding with your pet, these are:

Conventionally
Intensely
Uniquely

When these bonds are broken through loss, we may experience a whole spectrum of different grief responses.

Professional Pet Loss Counselling provides a safe space to work your way through grief in a warm and loving environment.

To find out more, please message or call.
