Surround yourself with the right support system that allows you to fall apart without judgment. There are days when I am not my usual happy, positive, confident self. When I have these days, I know that Nila is there to catch me, love me, pick me back up, and assist me in getting through the day. And then to also get back on the right track. Understanding that we cannot operate at full capacity 100% of the time. It just is not possible. Being able to rely on your support system is vital to getting through tough times. Who do you have on your team? Do you have a go-to person that you can be open with about everything you have going on in your life? I bet you have more people than you know who will answer the call. Sometimes we need to get over ourselves and be vulnerable to those in our circle. #mentalhealth #burnout #community #supportsystem #innercircle #selfcare #depression #anxiety #PTSD #awareness #healthyhabits

Chief Change Maker - About Time for Justice ⚖️ Lived Experience - Institutional Child Abuse & Incarceration ⛓️ Advocate Law Student
Self-care after jail and surviving SA. I often reflect on my darkest times when I was involved in crime, self-medicating with drugs and alcohol, and partying non-stop. I remember the tough comedowns, feeling worthless and thinking no one cared, believing I’d end up in jail. Now, looking back, I see how much I've grown. I've learned so many techniques and show myself a lot of self-love. I'm often training, doing saunas, ice and warm therapy, using compression boots, debriefing with mental health practitioners, colleagues, and family, meditating, visualizing, and more. Despite all this, I'm far from perfect and still struggle to switch off my mind. I'm happy with where I am now but always aiming to level up. I'm struggling with sleeping and switching off at night. Do you have any recommendations? Drop them below! #SelfCare #MentalHealth #RecoveryJourney #Survivor #SelfLove #Healing #Transformation #Resilience #LifeAfterJail #MentalHealthAwareness #Wellness #PersonalGrowth #Mindfulness #Meditation #HealthyHabits #Therapy #CrimeSurvivor #OvercomingAdversity #FitnessJourney #WellnessJourney #LevelUp #MentalHealthMatters #ReflectAndGrow #Wellbeing #SelfImprovement

I feel like we see these stories every day. I have alerts set up on my phone for these type of updates - and I was with my 11 year old niece yesterday when this story broke. Would you discuss this with your tweens and pre teens? My brother 1000% would NOT. There was a time when he asked me to stop crying in front of them after losing Jim 😳 (You can imagine my response!) This is the world we live in. As much as I want to protect everyone, acting like tragedies are not happening isn’t the way to do that. Having the conversations - as uncomfortable as they might be - is the ONLY way that they become less uncomfortable. I didn’t have an adult conversation with my niece. But she knows what I do. And she knows why I do it. So we talked about why I get these alerts. And what I do when I get them. We talked about how to support people who are sad. And we talked about the fact that one voice does matter! We live in a world where she’ll have shooting drills instead of tornado drills. And I don’t know if the teachers will have these conversations. I clearly know my brother won’t. So I will never shy away from a situation that presents itself - as uncomfortable as it may be. We’re the role models - The examples - The voices of reason - Let’s show these future generations that conversations are always ok. That emotions are always ok. That their voices matter!! And if that’s overwhelming, reach out to a professional for guidance. Pretending things aren’t happening doesn’t make their lives better. They know when we keep things from them. Let’s work together to be honest and communicate ❤️ #griefhab #widow #psychologist #supportgroups #petloss #rainbowbridge #griefawareness #grief #loss #trauma #griefjourney #griefsupport #mentalhealth #mentalhealthsupport #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealthadvocate #anxiety #mentalhealthawareness #depression #endthestigma #youarenotalone #alwaysberuthless https://lnkd.in/gMiDPPEQ

After years of challenges to her mental health and experiencing trauma, Addyson now has a new lease on life. The pandemic brought about new trials for everyone, including Addyson, 27. Her systems of support she relied on were uprooted by the pandemic, and instead of receding from the progress she had made, she took it as an opportunity to have more choice and independence in her life. Read about how the changes Addyson made have led to new opportunities in her life: https://bit.ly/3HiCTMe #LifeworksMN #OnTheBlog

Most of us are programmed to listen to respond, instead of listening to better understand one another. This exercise is meant to address that, as well as encouraging a couple to slow down, something that isn’t easy in our fast-paced society. This is ideal to try in moments of conflict or disagreement. The purpose of these conversations is not to get your partner to agree with you. Your goal should be to hear and fully understand each other, doing so with kindness and respect. Both take turns to be the ‘speaker’ and the ‘listener'. Speak without insults, blame or taking things personally, and listen to really ‘hear’ what the other person is saying. Then when they have finished, recap to them what you think you heard. Then swap over! While this exercise may not lead to an agreement or compromise, the key is that it enables couples to have a conversation about a serious topic without relying on defensiveness and anger. #juliewalescounselling #teenagecounselling #specialneeds #romanceawarenessmonth #romanceawareness #couplescounselling #couplestips #couplescounsellingcheltenham #counselling #talkingtherapy #familycounselling #family #stress #mentalhealth #anxiety #depression #learningdifficulty #disability
