If you suffer from anxiety or panic attacks, you can probably recognise the signs and know when your body is going into panic mode.

Anxiety floods your body with stress-targeting hormones, and suddenly, everything seems overwhelming.

Grounding techniques are coping strategies that help you reconnect with the present and get out of distressing moments.

They help separate you from the distress of your emotional state or situation.

Below are three types of grounding techniques that can be quite helpful, especially if you're heading back to school, college, or university next month. šŸ‘‡šŸ‘‡šŸ‘‡

Do you have any favourite grounding techniques? Let me know in the comments!

The end of August brings changes for lots of us - back to school, college, and university.

For some people, this is exciting, but to others, it is the source of a lot of stress and anxiety.

One thing that can help is to practice deep breathing and relaxation techniques. Like all things, the more you practice, the better you get. Now is a great time to start practising so that you can take control and relax when the big day arrives.

If this feels too big a challenge, please get in touch; I can help.

Recently, I've started a series packed with handy tips on tackling procrastination - perfect if you're heading back to work, school, or university in the next few weeks!

One of my favourite tried-and-tested tips is starting small with the 10-minute rule!

Set a timer and tell yourself you'll work on a task for just 10 minutes. Often, you'll find the initial resistance fades, and you can keep going!

Earlier this month, I posted about Entophobia (fear of insects) and wanted to share a testimonial from a lovely client whom I recently helped overcome their phobia of wasps!

Do you struggle with procrastination? Are you easily distracted by other ā€˜important thingsā€™ to the extent that hours, days, or weeks can go past and you still havenā€™t started that big thing?

Are you only able to get going at the last minute or when itā€™s too late?

Are you wasting hours of your day doom-scrolling on social media?

Firstly, youā€™re not alone. Most of us procrastinate at some point, putting off boring tasks like laundry, tax returns, or our homework. In fact, up to 20% of us could be classed as chronic procrastinators.

Over the next few weeks, I'm going to be sharing some tips on how to beat procrastination!

Today is Never Give Up Day, and I don't know about you, but the thought of having a 'Never Give Up Day' is just so heartwarming!

This quote by Mary Anne Radmacher perfectly summarises how keeping going when you want to give up can feel incredibly difficult.

Sometimes social media can create the impression that everyone is having their best day and big wins all the time!

I want to let you know that it's okay to have hard days, bad days and disappointments.

Look for the small wins and celebrate those. And remember, tomorrow is a new day and a new opportunity.

What are your small wins for today?

Do you struggle with skin picking?

Skin picking (also known as dermatillomania) is a mental health condition characterised by repetitive, compulsive picking of one's skin.

Picking is often a response to stress, anxiety, or boredom. It can be done as a conscious effort to relieve tension or as an unconscious habit while watching TV or driving. It can be a condition on its own, or accompanied by other conditions such as depression, anxiety, or OCD.

Skin picking disorders frequently lead to bleeding, bruising, and in some cases severe scarring and risk of infection.

If you or someone you love is struggling with skin picking, please do get in touch to see how I can help! šŸ’œ

Do you struggle with a fear of insects?

Clinically known as entomophobia, it is a specific phobia characterised by an intense anxiety triggered by insects.

Two types of entomophobia that I see most in my clients are Vespophobia (the fear of wasps) and Arachnaphobia (fear of spiders, although I know this isn't technically an insect), but any insect can trigger entomophobia, including moths, cockroaches, butterflies, beetles or grasshoppers!

Like all phobias, it can quickly begin to take its toll on your mental health. Entomophobia can stop you from enjoying outdoor exercise, social events, and even opening your windows during the summer.

I help most of my clients overcome their phobia in one session; if you'd like to find out more, please get in touch!
