The language we use is important. In our self talk the 'shoulds' feel like burdens, the 'coulds' feel doubtful. 'I get to' feels lucky, privileged, blessed. Which we are. Every day. If we can shift perspective to see it 🌞❤️

Neurodivergence is a difference in how you think, perceive the world and connect to others. Whether you have hyper or hypo neural connections, will inform how an individual is effected.

Both gifts and talents as well as challenges come with neurodivergence and is experienced by different people at different levels. Einstein, Carl Jung, Bill Gates, Elon Musk, Whoopi Goldberg and Anthony Hopkins are just some examples of famous neurodivergent people.

More and more people are being diagnosed as adults, with understanding of neurodivergence developing more in recent years. It can be challenging to process and adapt to a new understanding of your identity and experiences. Counselling can help in both emotional and practical ways.

Do you recognise yourself or someone you know?👇
