How do you tend to talk to yourself? Many of us are prone to talk to ourselves in a pretty judgmental manner. We may think that this is actually helpful in some way. Maybe we see it as a form of holding ourselves accountable or motivating ourselves. Today's post invites us to consider another way of talking to ourselves, one that has been shown to powerfully change the way that people relate to themselves.

Our thought patterns play a powerful role in our lives. It can be helpful to recognize--and address--the unhelpful shortcuts that our minds sometimes take. These distorted thought patterns can have a negative impact on how we make meaning of what we're experiencing in daily life. If this content resonates with you and you feel like you'd benefit from some assistance in addressing your thought patterns, we invite you to reach out. We'd love to hear from you!

We all need help and support from others at times. However, for some of us, it can be hard to receive that help--or even to trust that one could be open to the possibility of help from others without ending up hurt and disappointed. If you relate to this, please know that Daybreak Counselling is one place you could turn. We would be honoured to support you regardless of whatever you might be walking through.

For many of us, learning to set healthy boundaries is a real growth edge. At Daybreak, we help clients explore the boundaries that are important to them, and we support them as they learn to assert these boundaries. Thanks to our intern, Sean, for putting this post together!

Do you feel on edge much of the time? Are you always on the lookout for threats or "waiting for the other shoe to drop"? Hypervigilant is common among individuals who have experienced traumas. For such individuals, this is essentially a survival strategy, a way of protecting oneself. But it can be exhausting. If you're tired of being on the alert all the time, please reach out. We would love to help you bring healing to this part of your experience.
