Grief at Christmas and how to be Gentle With Yourself

Christmas can be a beautiful time of connection… but when you’ve lost someone you love, it can also feel heavy, confusing, or even lonely.

If this is you right now, please know: you’re not doing it wrong. Grief doesn’t follow the calendar, and it doesn’t look the same for everyone.

Some people feel waves of sadness.
Some feel numb.
Some feel moments of joy mixed with guilt.
Some want to keep traditions the same.
Others need everything to be different.

All of it is valid. All of it is normal.

There is no “right way” to grieve only your way.

💛 Ways to honour your loved one:

• Light a candle in their memory
• Hang a special decoration just for them
• Share a story about them with someone you trust
• Spend time doing something they loved
• Create a small ritual that brings you comfort

💛 Ways to soothe yourself:

• Give yourself permission to rest
• Step away from gatherings if you need space
• Take slow, grounding breaths
• Write your feelings down even the messy ones
• Reach out to someone who cares, even if it’s just to say “I’m struggling today”

If this season feels harder than usual, please remember:
You are allowed to feel what you feel. You are allowed to grieve and still find moments of peace. You are allowed to take care of you.

And if you need someone to talk to we are here. 💛

I took my dog to the beach today and caught myself really slowing down for a change just listening to the waves ( and his barking ) , watching him run, and noticing how easy it felt to just be there.

It’s a good reminder that mindfulness doesn’t always have to be formal or structured. Sometimes it’s just paying attention to what’s right in front of us.

I spent today with Andrew Cook Craniosacral Therapy in Norwich, diving into the world of somatic therapies and our nervous system thanks to his training with Body-Mind Resilience. It was an enriching day that deepened my understanding of how we hold and process experience in our bodies.

Here’s what I’m bringing back into my counselling practice:

• A stronger awareness of how the nervous system underpins our sense of safety, connection, and emotional balance.
• Insights into how past trauma, stress and even daily tension can influence our embodied state — and how we can gently support clients to “come back online” with our bodies.
• Practical tools to help you tune into your felt-experience, notice how your body signals stress or disconnection, and open pathways toward greater resilience, presence and well-being.
• A renewed commitment to integrating body-mind awareness into therapy: not just talking about change, but listening with the body and inviting gentle transformation.

I’m so grateful to Andrew and his work for this training and I’m excited to bring more depth into our sessions, helping clients feel more grounded, embodied and connected. If you’d like to explore what this means for you in counselling, let’s have a chat.

Also what a beautiful shared lunch thanks everyone !

🌿 A need for plans and connection to reduce loneliness ❤️

For many people without children/ family at home, single , grieving or isolated , social plans aren’t just “something to do” they’re a lifeline.

When plans change last minute, even for totally understandable reasons, it can hit harder than people realise. It can also trigger anxiety, leaving people feeling uncertain or worried about whether they’ll have connection or support that day.

It’s not about blame life is busy, and we all have commitments and unexpected things that come up. But it’s worth remembering that we never truly know what someone else is going through.

For those who spend a lot of time alone, moments of connection can be essential for emotional wellbeing and help manage feelings of loneliness and anxiety. It can be hard to continuously make plans to try to stay connected and not withdraw and to help reduce loneliness.

If you have a friend who lives alone or doesn’t have family around, a quick message, or just checking in can make a real difference. Keeping their experience in mind and communication goes a long way it reminds people they matter and helps reduce the sting of isolation and uncertainty.

Let’s all try to hold a bit of space for each other , for the ones juggling full plates, and for the ones who are quietly trying to stay connected, well, and a little less anxious. 💛

Let Today Be About the Things You Already Have

It’s so easy to focus on what’s missing what we wish was different, what we’re working toward, what hasn’t arrived yet.
But sometimes, peace comes from pausing right where you are and noticing what is here.

The people who care about you.
The small comforts that hold your day together.
The strength you’ve built just by getting through what you have.

Gratitude doesn’t mean pretending everything is perfect.
It means allowing yourself to find steadiness in what’s already enough.

So maybe today, take a quiet moment and look around.
Let it be about what you already have — and let that be enough for now. 💛

Hi Pom have you got a moment to think about what triggers you?

When something triggers you, it’s not weakness it’s information. Often, it’s your inner child calling out for care. Here are some gentle ways to respond:

1️⃣ Pause & Breathe – give yourself space before reacting.
2️⃣ Name the Feeling – “I feel scared / angry / hurt,” instead of pushing it down.
3️⃣ Offer Comfort – place a hand on your heart, remind yourself you’re safe now.
4️⃣ Get Curious – ask: “What does my inner child need right now?”
5️⃣ Soothe, Don’t Shame – respond with kindness instead of criticism.
6️⃣ Create Safety – grounding tools (warm drink, soft blanket, gentle movement).
7️⃣ Reach Out – connection heals; share with someone you trust.

✨ Your triggers are not failures. They are opportunities to heal. ✨
