Conceptualising ADHD, ASD, learning difficulties etc. as 'differences' rather than 'deficits' is not only more accurate, but will help your child reach their full potential. #neurodiversity #adhd #autism #childpsychology #disability
Join Valerie Ling, who is a dedicated resource and expert in the area of burnout work at the practice for this affordable program.Yeah. That would be nice wouldn't it? To feel like you can wind down each day. Having moments where you are completely dialled down, chill, cool, relaxed.
Wishful thinking?
How about a kind of hunger for relaxation that you are SO wound up all the time, you can't even fathom what it is like to be relaxed. You cannot remember and your body has no clue. So base line becomes wound up.
I see this a lot in my work. Clients whose breathing is so short and shallow, shoulders in a constant state of tension, muscles used to being tight. That is the new normal. That is baseline.
From that position, everything feels laboured, every situation a threat, ever connection a drain.
One of the best ways to address this is to give yourself a kind of relaxation and wind down immersion. That's what we are going to do next week of BOUNCE BACK.
How will it work?
Each day of the 3 days, I will send you VERY SHORT AND SHARP input with a couple of practices to try out during the day. You will try it on for size and fully immerse yourself in at least one. You don't have to be on holiday to do this. That's the point! Learning you can call on these resources ANY TIME.
Each day you have the chance to have a SUNRISE and SUNDOWN chillax, connection and support space with me via Zoom. You don't have to attend, the recordings will be sent to you. I will be online, available cheering you, supporting you and tackling any questions you have about your self care experience.
I have found this structure has worked wonders for me. I have had the chance to use this with my long term coaching clients and we have achieved wonderful transformations.
Ready to do this? What have you got to lose? Did I mention it's under $50?
