In a way, we can predict our future based on the actions we make in the present moment. We can also reasonably predict the inevitable, even though we can not determine specifically when. Thus, in a way, we can accommodate for these by not filling every minute of every day. Similar to how we build our financial savings as a catch-all for any last-minute expenses, we too must build and strengthen our mental and emotional resilience when it comes to the catch-all in life. In doing so, we better prepare ourselves to be able to improvise as needed because life is a series of improvisation. We shouldn't financially put all our eggs in one basket, and neither should we experience life with underdeveloped emotional and mental health skills carried into adulthood from our childhood or our high school years. When we meet adulthood with mature adult decisions, life becomes easier and more enjoyable. Allow your personal growth to make this your reality. Greetings!

On Wednesday I always try and give you guys some tips and practical things you can start doing in your life right now. Today is the topic I am probably most passionate about in this world and that is presence as a father. Here are 5 reasons investing in your presence is worth it: 1. Stronger Bonds: Being present fosters deeper connections with your children, building trust and emotional closeness. Children don't remember the things you bought them, they remember how you made them feel and how you showed up. Positive Role Modelling: Your kids learn by watching you. Demonstrating presence teaches them the value of relationships. You are always the example. Better Mental Health: Both you and your children benefit emotionally from genuine connection and shared time. Lasting Memories: Presence turns everyday moments into lasting, meaningful memories for your children. Children remember all the times you weren't present as much as the times you were. Life Satisfaction: The fulfilment you gain from being a present father enhances your overall sense of purpose and joy. It can be the most amazing, life-giving thing if you allow yourself to connect to it. Investing in your presence is investing in your family’s future. It’s a decision that pays off in countless ways. Ready to make the shift? Let’s talk about how coaching can help you get there. #Fatherhood #PresenceMatters #InvestInYourFamily

Do you have higher standards for your kids than you do for yourself? Are you constantly settling for less when it comes to you? The 14K rule is a powerful reminder that we should never settle for less than we would accept for our loved ones, especially our children. Here's why it matters: Self-respect and self-worth: just as we want our children to be treated with kindness, respect, and fairness, we must expect the same for ourselves. Accepting less than we deserve our roads our self-worth and diminishes our sense of value. Setting boundaries: this rule encourages us to set healthy boundaries. When we advocate for our own needs, desires, and well-being, we model self-respect for our children. Boundaries protect us from mistreatment and ensure that we don't compromise our happiness. Emotional well-being: Accepting less than we deserve can lead to emotional distress, anxiety, and even depression. When we prioritize our mental health, we demonstrate resilience and teach our children the importance of self care. Role modeling: children learn by observing their parents. When we uphold high standards for ourselves, we show them how to navigate life with confidence and self-assuredness. Our actions speak louder than words. Relationships: weather in friendships, romantic partnerships, or professional settings the 14K rule guides us. It prompts us to choose relationships that uplift us, where mutual respect and reciprocity thrive. Our children learn from the quality of our connections. Remember, you deserve the same kindness, compassion, and opportunities you would wish for your children. By embracing the 14K rule, you honor your own worth and create a positive legacy for generations to come.

All of us have similar psychological needs like experiencing self efficacy, pleasure, or attachment (Epstein, 1993; Grawe, 2005;). The way to get our needs met is however, sometimes messy. I read through an article that had a caption, does early hardship in life keep children from becoming successful adults? Well, it is an urgent question for parents and educators, who worry that children growing up in worrisome circumstances will fail to attain their full potential or at the worse, sink into sadness and experience some levels of dysfunction. Although, risks factors are real, research have also found a surprising patterns among those whose early lives included tough times: Many draw strength from hardship and see their struggles against it as one of the keys to their later success. Fostering the right kind of relationship that is mutual and supportive in nature really does give the individual going through a tough time, the balance he or she may need. Challenges are bound to occur. But, we must not get overwhelmed by them! What is your story? How did you overcome your most recent challenge through resilience?? Kindly, leave a message behind #mentalhealthmatters #ResilienceAmidstChallenges #mindpower #yourcelebritypsychologist

🚀 Big Problem ➡️ Big Solution! 🚀 🗓 In late 2021, fueled by our academic studies, volunteer work at Raise Foundation, practical experience at school, private practice, and personal journeys, we embarked on a mission to tackle a significant issue: #internationalstudent #mentalhealth. Introducing our brainchild: a comprehensive 6-week program focusing on crucial mental health topics such as stress and anxiety and challenges faced by international students. What set our initiative apart was our unwavering belief in the power of #creative and #expressive #artstherapy. Having witnessed firsthand the transformative effects of these approaches, we integrated them into our program with a creative arts therapy intervention. Gratitude is owed to Dr Sophie Lea for her generous support, enabling us to launch a pilot program for the Masters of Counselling cohort. The impact was profound: participants reported greater improvements in their mental well-being during the 6 weeks of the program. We discovered more insights and made greater strides during the 6 weeks of program implementation than we did in the preceding 6 months of planning and creation. #LessonLearned: Embrace the leap of faith. Despite grappling with impostor syndrome and doubts about its success, we pushed forward. Every "what if" was overshadowed by the knowledge that progress only comes from taking that initial step. 🌟 When was the last time you took a leap of faith? How did it turn out? Share your experiences in the comments below. Let's inspire each other to embrace boldness and drive positive change! 💪 #MentalHealthMatters #Innovation #CommunityImpact #LeapOfFaith #Inspiration

SELF CARE SATURDAY - Seeking understanding and promoting calm in my life. High functioning anxiety can be invisible yet profoundly impactful, hiding behind success and smiles. It's vital for us, as educators, to acknowledge and assist one another, prioritising mental well-being alongside academic success for the students and for ourselves. The reality of high functioning anxiety is often overlooked, affecting many individuals and dubbed as the “silent anxiety”. Some people experience: ✴️ Persistent worry or fear that interferes with daily activities. ✴️ Overthinking and excessive planning. ✴️ Difficulty relaxing or feeling constantly "on edge." ✴️ Perfectionism and setting unrealistically high standards for oneself. By nurturing a culture of support and self-care, we can begin to embrace neurodiversity and create an inclusive environment where everyone is appreciated. Together, let's advocate for awareness and empower each other to excel. This book by Dr. Lalitaa Suglani has helped me confront HFA and take steps to unlearn traits to improve my wellbeing. #HighFunctioningAnxiety #MentalHealthAwareness #SupportOurStudents #EducationMatters #InvisibleStruggles #UKSchools #EducatorAwareness #inclusion #neurodiversity

Continuing the conversation from yesterday about emotionally immature people, today let's explore the Psychological Factors Influencing Emotional Immaturity: #Childhood Experiences Emotional immaturity often finds its roots in early childhood experiences. Neglect, abuse, and emotionally unavailable or inconsistent parenting can significantly hinder emotional development. When children do not receive the love, support, and guidance they need during their formative years, it can lead to difficulty in managing emotions and forming healthy relationships later in life. #Lack of Emotional Regulation Skills Emotional regulation refers to the ability to identify, understand, and manage one's own emotions. Thanks to this skill we are in a position to appropriately respond to different situations and adapt to changing circumstances. However, for emotionally immature people, this skill may be underdeveloped, leading to impulsive and erratic behavior. #Inadequate Coping Mechanisms Sometimes people lack effective coping strategies to handle challenging emotions or stress. This often results in emotional outbursts or withdrawal as defense mechanisms. This distortion hinders the ability to cope with stress, regulate emotions, and effectively solve problems. Thus, focusing more on temporary solutions instead of permanent triumphs. #Low Self-Esteem When people have a negative self-perception they seek validation and approval from others, relying on external factors to define their self-worth. Their self-esteem becomes dependent on others' opinions and actions. #Fear of Vulnerability Fear of vulnerability prevents people from confronting their emotions, stunting their emotional growth. To protect themselves from emotional pain, they avoid vulnerability. This often translates to a reluctance to integrate the other person's opinions or be influenced by them, leading to further relational challenges. --- Recognising that emotional immaturity may be rooted in deep-seated struggles reminds us that those exhibiting such behaviors are carrying heavy burdens and are not on the path to reach their full potential. What are your thoughts on these psychological factors? #PositivePatterns #NegativePatterns #MentalHealthMatters #PathToGreatness #EmotionalIntelligence #PersonalGrowth
