January 18, 2021January 18, 2021 ~ kbnewleafcounselling

The art and freedom of learning to say no... Most of us are taught from an early age that being 'selfless' is a good thing and there are many proven benefits of altruism to both our mental and physical well-being. But to push ourselves to the limit and please others all of the time may mean giving … Continue reading Are you a people pleaser?

Be conscious that as you navigate your relationships with the people in your life you will almost always take on a part of them. Make sure you choose these relationships carefully and that you feel safe, nurtured and inspired by the people you surround your self with. 🧡 #people #friends #family #nurture #mentalhealth #mentalwellness #mental #people #friendsmatter #reflection #strongbonds
The hardest battle you’ll ever fight, is against yourself. With each day, each moment, each challenge their is a win or a loss and it’s your mindset that will determine how you react to it.

Good listening allows us to demonstrate that we are paying attention to the thoughts, feelings and behaviours of the other person. This is crucial to maintaining good relationships. Some could argue it is the most important skill to have based on our basic human need to feel understood. Today when you with other people, really listen, you will probably learn something new.

Happy Easter 🧡🍃 #easter #eastersunday #hope #secondchances #mentalwellbeing #bekindtoyourself
With the Easter holidays starting spending quality time with your children -without the distraction of screens or work- is so important to children. They love having our undivided attention. I know this can be hard when we are juggling life but even 1/2 hour will help them connect, feel secure and build emotion strength. 🍃#happyholidays #easter #schoolsout #holiday #emotionalwellbeing #parent #emotionalresilience #children #play #childrensmentalwellbeing #childrenscounselling

Monday 29th and the start of the path out of lockdown, today we can meet 6 people outside. This is a positive step to getting back to ‘normal’ allowing us to reconnect in person, face to face. But take a moment to think about who you might like to reconnect with, what are your reasons and how does the relationship benefit you? Relationships are 2-way so invest in the people who invest in you. 🍃 #mondaymotivation #monday #bekind #relationship #relationships #reconnect #ruleofsix #lockdown #mentalwellbeing #mentalhealthmatters #facetoface #invest
What ever is going on for you at the moment just try to stay positive, focused and strong. If it is all too much reach out and talk to someone, there is always someone willing to listen. You’ve got this 🍃 #friday #fridaythoughts #staypositive #staysafe #staystrong #stayfocused #mentalwellbeing #mentalhealth #talk #mindset #itsokaynottobeokay #itsokay
