Problems can begin when catastrophic thinking turns into a habit. When our brains constantly predict the worst, it soon becomes our go-to response, reinforcing a cycle that feels real and unavoidable. As if those thoughts are based on reality rather than imagination.

To some people, the idea of a walk in the park is exactly that.
A walk in the park.
To someone else though, it's a minimum of 7 out of 10 on the "I feel like something horrible is about to happen" scale.
Everyone has their own unique way of feeling and reacting and will need a unique reaction from you too.Social Media Links

27 December 2024, 6:00 am - 16 minutes 37 secondsRejection Sensitivity
For many, anxiety is all about being vulnerable to the possibility of rejection.
It's normal for our brain to seek out what we fear and notice dangerous possibilities. But those with bad experiences may have been primed from an early age to expect rejection by default.
Because of this, their brain is going to start perceiving rejection everywhere.

1 December 2024, 6:00 am - 15 minutes 20 secondsKindness
Kindness is often linked with better mental health. It helps us to feel connected to others, creates a sense of belonging and reduces isolation.
But I say there's a time and a place for it, and it might not be now and it might start closer to home.Social Media Links

In his letter from Birmingham Jail in 1963, after being arrested on the rather trumped up charge of marching without a permit, Martin luther king wrote, amongst other things, this quote. he said "There can be no deep disappointment where there is not deep love" in other words, if you feel disappointed it's only because you care about something.

Often people will talk about the need to disappear away for a bit to "find themselves" when actually they already knew where they were they just didn't "know" themselves.
Well, maybe we don't need to climb a mountain or hide in a retreat for a week to do this. Maybe we can get to really know ourselves a little bit more every day until we're fully clued up.Social Media Links
