“Life is 10% what happens to us and 90% how we react to it” — Charles Swindoll

While you cannot control unpredictable events, you have total control over your mindset, emotions, and actions. Mastering this concept, often called the ‘90/10 principle’, allows you to be an architect of your experiences.

Myth: “Once you start medication, you can never stop.”

Fact: While some conditions require lifelong medication management, for many others, medications are temporary tools used to achieve stability while building lifestyle changes or healing.

This myth assumes that medication is the only thing that will assist an individual struggling with a mental health condition, when instead, medication is one of the many tools to kickstart healing and learning to manage a mental health condition.

When healing, we can still recognize that the pain is a valid part of our story, but it no longer gets to dictate our happiness, decisions, or future.

Have you noticed yourself yawning after a friend or family member has just yawned?

Seeing, hearing, or even think about somebody else yawning triggers an involuntary yawn in yourself. This action is primarily driven by mirror neurons that fire when we observe others, prompting the brain to mimic behaviour. Research shows that you are more likely to ‘catch’ a yawn from a family member or friend than from a stranger, as yawning is linked to social bonding.

Yawning serves as a physiological reset; increasing blood flow to the brain, decreasing drowsiness, and equalizing air pressure in the middle ear.

Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

~ ‘Invictus’ by William Ernest Henley

Myth: “Everyone with autism has an intellectual disability.”

Fact: Autism is a neurodevelopmental condition affecting communication and social interaction. While some people with Autism can have an intellectual disability, others have average or above average intelligence.

This myth is damaging as it can lead individuals with Autism to be undermined in educational, professional, and social settings.

If you or somebody you know is querying Autism, visit our website or call our Mona Vale practice to find out about our Autism assessments.

The Zeigarnik Effect is a cognitive phenomenon relating to memory. Your brain is more likely to remember incomplete or interrupted tasks over completed ones. Your brain holds onto these tasks as ‘unfinished business’ until they are resolved, keeping them at the forefront of your memory.
