Often when people are depressed, it’s hard for them to think about beginning their healing.
It seems that almost every day brings another message of warning about the potential dangers of stress
Stop and think about it for a minute – how you deal with stress depends on how you approach the things that stress you out in life.
Having self-belief doesn’t mean you have excessive pride or vanity or an inflated sense of yourself and your own importance.
It’s true to say that most people, if asked, would say they were good communicators. But are they?
We all know that feeling when tension seems to climb all the way from our lower back up to our stiff neck.
It’s not unusual to feel stressed in today’s fast-paced world. In fact, for many people, it’s a fact of life.
Here are some more self-help strategies for being kind to yourself in your grief and ensuring that you move in a positive direction emotionally.
When it comes to grief – accepting help from others is a form of self-help and many people find talking to friends, family and professionals very supportive and helpful.
If you’ve ever been depressed you’ll know that one of the common signs is a lack of interest in doing things you previously enjoyed.
If losing weight was as easy as eating less and moving around more, then everyone would be happy and slim.
Too often, when resolving to lose weight, people think exclusively about diets and calorie-counting. That’s good in itself, but not enough, because it doesn’t really prepare you – or help you maintain – your resolve.
Learning from others and taking from their experience is always a good way of supporting changes in your own life. If you want to increase your feelings of self-esteem, it pays to listen to how others have done this – and learn from their comments.
How many times have you heard that diets don’t work? You might think this is a sweeping statement – and it is. For most people, slimming diets don’t work because they go about their weight loss without really being mindful of their intentions and goals.
Jealousy is an expression of emotion. Jealousy is often about fear and the need to control. When feeling threatened, vulnerable or powerless, people can feel jealous
Most people, if asked whether or not they considered themselves to be honest or not would probably say they were.
It’s a process we all take for granted – our breath is our life. Yet, many people remain unaware that deep breathing can help beat stress – and calm and centre your life.
Healing is what we hope for when we’ve experienced a loss and are grieving. We move closer to healing when we begin to accept what has happened and start to re-engage with life.
