When Emotions Get Stuck

How often have you said “I’m fine” when you’re anything but?

If a situation isn’t resolved, or something wasn’t said or if someone has hurt you, you keep replaying it, and you begin to get frustrated.

When you get frustrated that frustration starts of small but begins to build up. The more it builds up it can become resentment, bitterness or rage.

With Silent Counselling we recognise that there can be more beneath the emotion than what we see on the surface.

It’s not about ignoring the frustration or the rage or pretending they’re not there, it’s about allowing the emotional burden that’s behind it to be released. When that’s done it helps create space for more clarity, ease and freedom.

Because carrying resentment is hurting you and it rarely changes the person who caused it in the first place. It means you’re carrying them around with you.

Where focus goes energy flows.

It’s time to change where that flow is.

Mindset Shift Idea

Every week I like to share a way of helping you to switch your thinking and this week is

Stop comparing your beginning to someone else’s middle.

How many times have you looked at someone and thought that they’ve just got everything figured out?

We see the new job, the lovely house, the relationship, the business, the confidence or whatever it is that you wish you had, then you compare it to where you are right now.

What you don’t see is everything that’s happened before that picture.

You don’t see the blood, the sweat, the tears of the mistakes, the tears of work, the doubts, the things that don’t work out or the times they may have wondered if they were ever going to get there.

You’re comparing what you know of yourself with what you can see of someone else, and that’s never really a fair comparison is it.

Next time you catch yourself comparing just stop for a moment and think, who am I comparing myself to? Then bring your attention back to your own journey. You might realise you are exactly where you need to be at this time.

Maybe you’re learning something, maybe you’re starting again, maybe you’re even taking a few small steps that at the time don’t seem much yet, but that doesn’t mean you’re behind.

Your journey is your journey, it’s not about being on someone else’s and it certainly doesn’t have to look like anyone else’s.

So take a few moments and look at how far you’ve come, instead of thinking why are you not there yet.

One small step at a time.

Time out

Did you ever give the kids a time out, a time where they had to go and reflect on their behaviour?

Most times, we’ll certainly with my grandkids, they’d just sit a cry and ask if it was time to move again or try to sneak away. They weren’t fussed about reflecting on what it was they had just done or said, they just wanted back to play.

Have you ever thought about giving yourself a time out? I don’t mean because you’ve said or done something wrong though.

How about creating some time to yourself to deal with your negative thoughts.

Throughout the day, rather than spend ages thinking about the negative thoughts that pop in and out your head, write them down, telling yourself you will deal with it later. Then at the end of the day allow yourself 10 minutes, no more than that.

Thoughts come and go and we don’t always have the time to deal with them when they happen. It’s like making a list of things you need to do, get shopping, feed the dog, send that important email, message that parson you said you would. Instead of it being a list of things to do it’s a list of the negative thoughts that have popped into your head. Why can’t I do this, what if I go speak to the boss and he yells and me, I know m not good enough for that promotion, whatever it is that you think about negatively, write it down.

Once you sit down to review what you have written over time you will gain more control over the negative thinking.

So take a 10 minute time out for yourself daily and review those negative thoughts. You’ll find that they don’t seem as big as they did when you first thought of it.

Have you ever noticed how quickly your mind can turn a small thought into a chain of other possibilities?

If you have a meeting you might start thinking “What if I say something stupid?”

Then it throws in another thought. “What if everyone notices?”

Then it throws in another and another and before you know it you’ve gone from just thinking about the meeting to imagining every possible thing that could go wrong.

You go to the land of “What if?”

That’s all because your mind is trying to protect you by looking
ahead and preparing you for any potential problems.

Anxiety doesn’t just focus on what might happen, it focuses on what could go wrong.

Things like

“What if they don’t like me”

“What if I make a mistake”

“What if I can’t cope”

“What if…
The list begins to grow.

And because your subconscious mind doesn’t know the difference between real and imagined the more real it begins to feel.

But a possibility isn’t a prediction. Just because your mind can imagine something doesn’t mean that it will.

Next time you find yourself caught in the “what if?” spiral just ask yourself “what if things actually go right”.

There’s no need to think that everything will be perfect, there’s no such thing as perfect, there’s only doing the best you can, it’s just letting your mind know there is another possibility.

The anxious thoughts are simply showing you what your mind is afraid might happen.

How often does your mind get caught in the “what if” cycle?

YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOU

There is only one person responsible for you and that’s YOU.

Every decision you make, every choice, every response that’s all up to you.

Every feeling you have whether it’s sadness, anger, happiness or joy that’s all your doing.

Take a look in the mirror today and introduce yourself to you. Start with “I am your host for today, my name is …, I’m here to help you live your best life. Then tell yourself all the good things about you, even if that is that you make the best cheesecake ever.

Then each time you see your reflection in a mirror or a window just remind yourself of who you are.

When Worry Take Over

Have you ever noticed how one little thought can suddenly turn into a whole conversation in your head?

“What if something goes wrong?”

“What if I can’t cope?”

Any other random “what if” scenario that your mind creates.

Then before you know it your mind is racing, your body is tense and it seems like you can’t switch off.

Most of us think that anxiety is something that happens in our mind.

But we can feel it in our body too.

The feeling of being constantly on edge. The tightness in your shoulders, your back, changes in your breathing, that restless feeling that makes it hard for you to relax.

In Silent Counselling we look at the connection between the thoughts, emotions and energy surrounding the issue.

Rather than simply talking about the problem over and over again we work with the emotional response.

The intention is to help release the emotional burden that’s associated with the issue so that we can create a different response.

So you can move from fear to calm, from worry to awareness, from uncertainty to inner trust.

The emotion that we notice first isn’t the whole story, your body needs to be part of that story as well.

This is just one of the ways that Silent Counselling can support people experiencing anxiety and emotional overwhelm.

If this sounds familiar then maybe it’s time for you to explore what’s underneath the anxiety rather than just trying to manage the symptoms.

Mindset Shift Idea

What are you expecting from yourself?

Sometimes the pressure we feel doesn’t come from anyone else. It's coming from the expectations that we've placed on ourselves and the belief that we should be doing more or getting everything right.

We can be incredibly hard on ourselves, we expect ourselves to get things right the first time and to be able to cope with everything that life throws at us and still have everything under control.

And when you don’t you are very quick to tell yourself you’ve failed.

If a friend came to you and told you they were struggling with the very thing you're struggling with, would you speak to them in the same way you're speaking to yourself? I very much doubt it.

You'd probably tell them that they're doing their best, that nobody gets everything right, that it's okay to have an off day.

So perhaps you need to offer yourself some of the same advice.

It doesn't mean lowering your standards or giving up on the things that matter to you. It simply means relieving some of the pressure.

This week, notice when you're putting pressure on yourself and ask, "Would I expect this from someone I care about?"

It could change the way you speak to yourself.

You can’t fix what you can’t face.

Imagine the room below was a room in your house ( I apologies if this offends, but it’s not my choice of decor for a room) and every time you passed it you would feel anxious. Then you decide to close the door so you can’t see it, out of sight out of mind right? Nope, it’s still there. So you still feel anxious about it.

Each time you pass and think about what’s behind that door the anxiety becomes more and more.

A similar thing happened with me. My mum had a stroke whilst she was staying with us. Every time I walked past the door, which I had to do to get to my room, I could picture her there struggling, unable to speak and hardly able to move. After she died I closed the door and avoided the room. But I knew I couldn’t keep avoiding it forever, it’s a spare room we use for guests. I changed the decor in it but I could still see here there.

I had to get help to deal with the image and that’s when I discovered how powerful Havening was. Which is why I decided to train in it and something that I now use with many of my clients.

You have to open the door and assess what is wrong and plan to make the changes. For me it wasn’t just a case of changing the decor, it was changing how I thought about that room and the feelings it created within my body.

Avoiding the issue doesn’t work, facing it and dealing with it does.

How You Can Rewire Your Brain

Most of us focus on what’s gone wrong in our life or focus on how we don’t want to feel.

What if I told you that in only a few weeks you can shift your mindset into a more positive mindset.

There’s one simple way to help you rewire your brain and activate your serotonin, which helps to stabilise your mood and your emotions, and dopamine, which is the pleasure hormone.

And this has even been scientifically proven.

It’s something I get the majority of my clients to do.

What is it, and how can you do it today to start help rewiring your brain?

It’s simply writing down at least 3 things that you are grateful for.

Writing down things that have gone right for you or things that you appreciate your brain starts to look for the good in your life, switching your focus from the negative to the positive, your reality will then start to shift.

In just a few weeks you might find that you sleep better, your stress and anxiety levels have reduced.

I do this every day and have done for many years.

The more you focus on what you do want or focus on the good things that happen in your life, the more you’ll find it.

The key rule is. Specificity matters. Writing detailed, specific entries works much better than repeating vague statements like "I am grateful for my morning coffee". Change it to "I am grateful for the quiet 10 minutes I had this morning, holding a hot mug of coffee before anyone else woke up, listening to the birds."

Don’t use your phone to do it, actually write it with pen and papers.

Get yourself a note book or if you like you can purchase my Seeds Of Gratitude- The Journey To Joy journal on Amazon. https://amzn.eu/d/0ejaZDHd

What 3 things are you grateful for today?

Not all thoughts are true

I had depression for almost 15 years. It started as post natal depression which just grew from there into anxiety. I couldn’t see a way out.

I would tell myself that I was useless, that I’d always feel this way, that I was a burden to others. It didn’t help that my marriage at that time was wasn’t in a good way. My now ex husband was always cheating with someone else so that made me believe that I wasn’t good enough and that there had to be something wrong with me.

That was all just thoughts and there was a way out of it. When I look back I can’t even imagine what I was like then. Im thankful I got the help I needed, but more importantly, I took the help and decided enough was enough.

If you’re struggling remember not all thoughts are true, question those thoughts and look for a way to change it.

“Nobody likes me” can become “there are people out there that care about me”.

“I’m always going to feel this way” can be “I’ll get through this one step at a time”

You have to be an active participant in making those changes.
