Kindness matters đź’›

Recent research suggests we are naturally drawn to people who are kind, helpful and considerate. Kindness can help build positive connections with others.

A lot of parents we work with have goals… and then immediately talk themselves out of them.

“I’d love to do that but…”
“Maybe when the kids are older…”
“It’s not the right time…”

We tell our kids to “follow their dreams.” But it matters if you’ve completely stopped reaching yourself.

You’re still a person.

You’re allowed to care about your career.
Or your health.
Or making money.
Or building something.
Or doing something just because it matters to you.

That doesn’t make you less devoted.

Kids need someone real.

They need to see aspiration up close, not in a motivational speech way, but in a normal, slightly messy, everyday way.

“I’m nervous about this.”
“I didn’t get it.”
“I’m trying again.”
“I’m learning.”

So set yourself some goals, model how you'd like your kid to be when they are your age.

CBT is a gold standard treatment for anxiety which is maintained by distorted threat predictions and avoidance behaviours.

Walk them to school (even if you just park a street away to do it).
Sit and eat one meal properly at the table.
Read two pages of a book together.
Stay and watch the last five minutes of training.

Not multitasking.
Not half-listening.
Not on your phone.

Just there. Eyes on your child. Your attention is the biggest gift.

The meltdown in the supermarket that came from nowhere. The same dinner, on the same plate, every single night. The deep, encyclopaedic knowledge of one very specific topic.

When you understand autism, these stop looking like "behaviour" and start making sense. Autistic kids aren't broken versions of other kids – they have a nervous system that experiences the world more intensely than most.

On Saturday 26 September Dr Amanda Mullin is running An Introduction to Autism for Parents at our Norwest rooms – what autism actually is, why the overwhelm and meltdowns happen, and practical, neuro-affirming ways to support your child at home.

Diagnosed, on a waitlist, or just starting to wonder – you're welcome. Limited seats. Tickets:

Sometimes anxiety is obvious: panic, racing thoughts, sleepless nights. But sometimes the bigger issue is avoidance...

It can look like:

➡️ “I’m just busy.”

➡️ “I work better under pressure.”

➡️ “I’m not ready yet.”

➡️ “It’s not the right time.”

➡️ Endless researching, planning, tweaking.

Or socially:

➡️ Staying home because you’re tired.

➡️ Letting other people decide.

➡️ Not speaking up in meetings.

➡️ Avoiding difficult conversations.

The tricky part is that avoidance often disguises itself as productivity, perfectionism, or personality.

So how do you know?

➡️ A few gentle markers:

➡️ Your world is getting smaller.

➡️ You’re spending a lot of time thinking about doing things, but not doing them.

➡️ You feel temporary relief when you cancel or delay.

The good news is anxiety is one of the most treatable mental health challenges - and we love helping our clients to kick it to the kerb.

Ready for a bigger world filled with more adventures and less angst? We are ready to help.

Sometimes staying late at work isn’t about workload. It’s about avoidance.

Parenting can be exposing. It’s noisy.
Unpredictable.
Emotionally demanding.
There’s no performance review. No clear KPI. No immediate sense of competence.

If you’re someone who feels capable and effective at work, but uncertain at home, the pull to stay where you feel skilled is strong.

If going home brings anxiety - conflict, dysregulation, unmet needs, your own triggers - your nervous system may prefer the office.

New experiences build cognitive flexibility and confidence. But trying new things can feel disproportionately hard for some people. It often means your nervous system is sensitive to uncertainty.

For some people this links to anxiety.
For some it links to perfectionism.
For some it’s about identity, “What if I’m bad at this?”
For some it’s neurodivergent wiring and a genuine need for routine.

Ready for change? We love to teach your nervous system that new doesn’t equal danger.
