New year.....are we setting our self up to fail?

Image
January is the middle of winter,  we set ourselves New Year Resolutions most of which we will give up on mid month, due to lack of money, its to cold, to dark, left over food and drink, tiredness. And then feel like we have failed and only a few weeks into the new year, well that's a bit shit! Nature is still hibernating, conserving energy until Spring when it is warmer and lighter, we are all born from the earth, so why do we push for energy and change in the month we should be conserving our energy. That's not to say we can't use this time to plan, to reflect, to be kind to ourselves in preparation for the Spring, the time of year for new beginnings. Let's try to step away from the pressure of New Year Resolutions, use January to plan and get ready for a Spring full of motivation, plans, change and energy, as we have allowed ourselves to relax and re-energize i the dark winter months #self-care #wintering #therapy #coaching #planning #newyearresolutions #s...

The importance of communication

Open and honest communication is vital for a strong, healthy relationship. It enables understanding and empathy between partners, creating a deeper connection.  Sharing thoughts and feelings, both big and small, builds trust and intimacy. We need to remember our partner is not a mind reader.  Effective communication also helps resolve conflicts constructively, preventing resentment from building up. It is surprising how often an argument can occur over such a small thing (it's never that small thing) what has been building up, what have you not been saying. It is also important to be mindful of the type of language we are using, tone of voice, 'banter', text messages can all be misheard and cause conflict if not challenged in a calm, inquisitive way. These are things I can work with you on. Let's work out your communication style and how it might be impacting your relationships.
