“There is no passion to be found playing small – in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.” Nelson Mandela😍🧠😍🧠

This is so true …

LET 👏THEM 👏

Stop trying to control the people around you.

When you “let them” be who they are, you gain control over your own emotional peace and improve your relationships.

I call this the “Let Them Theory” and it has been LIFE-CHANGING for me. It can change your life too…

Have you tried using the “Let Them Theory” in your life? Tell me about your experience 👇

Client review 🙏🏻🌟

Love this 🙏🏻💚

"As soon as you honor the present moment, unhappiness and struggle dissolve, and life begins to flow with joy and ease." - Eckhart Tolle

So many people are effected by loneliness with changes in their life and the world. I see this often in my client sessions.

Esther Perel who grew up in Belgium and now lives in the USA. She is a an Expert on Relationships and Sexuality. Here is an article she wrote. I respect the work she does so if you are going through some forms of loneliness, I encourage you to read this.

Take it easy on yourself. 💜🌻

From Esther Perel's Blog - Letters from Esther #54: Curiosity is a balm for loneliness. My monthly newsletter is meant to inspire you to reflect, act, and develop greater confidence and relational intelligence in all of your relationships.

Anyone ever had a time where you need a break from work/client sessions for a morning and then you get some cancellations or "no shows"? I take this as an opportunity to work on some passion projects and having some time to rest.

Many of my clients feel its difficult to change or when things don't go to plan, they are upset, angry and frustrated. I teach find the opportunity and the learning in every moment and those negative emotions will subside. 🙏

Take the opportunity and learn 😀

Navigating Christmas Day Christmas is a joyous time, but it can be difficult for many.

I am so grateful to be working on a therapy platform that has Elizabeth Lombardo as the psychologist taking the lead with creating the videos for the program. 💚

Have a look at what she says about perfectionism 💕

Many people struggling with this but you don’t have to.

WHO knows what the mental load is?? 🧠

It’s what often causes marriage and relationship breakdowns. 💔

I attended a workshop/ training online last month for health professionals. It focused on guiding couples to see the invisible labor’s of life.

They introduce me to a The FAIR PLAY Method! It is simple but also can be complex in daily life.

Yesterday I was over the moon as I received Eve Rodsky books and her couples conversation deck 💕🌻

Ladies, these are a game changer! 🙌 💕

I’ve been working with couples throughout the world 🌍 in the last 2 years and to become a better therapist and educator I need to keep training. Being vulnerable in relationships can be challenging however to build a stronger foundation and connection there must be understanding and about what each person’s vulnerability is from there past to the present moment.

There are 3 elements I will be exploring the next couples days so follow along to learn more 🌻

Shout out to Kristy Benallack-Irons for making my sign 💚

This beats a peace a paper any day and the teenagers in the house can read it clearly 😀

Another wonderful meeting where we had conversations about "Balance" in our lives.

Tina Sharp from Tidy Tina - Home Organiser shared some great insights into home organization which we all were grateful for 🙂

2 more meetings left and then our Christmas Party! 🌟🌟🌟What a wonderful group of women supporting each other!

NOTE : WE need someone to take a great shot of us! We missed our selfie queen Melanie Parkinson 😉💜

A Testimonial from a client I have been working with for over a year. She has had panic attacks for years. I received this in an email on Monday. 🌻🌟

Attention to all my friends that are healers and people that may want to heal from past Traumas.

This is a great workbook for you! 💜

I have used and shared some of the concepts and have found so many amazing shifts in my clients.

The Art of Science and Human Body connection is so important for the healing ❤️‍🩹 process.

I just got off a session with a client in California and at the end she said “ Shawn you make me feel at home 💕🙏🏻”

It’s those little touches that make people feel loved, heard and cared for.

I love days like this!

Mondays 💚

You can rush and compete so much but at the end of the day who are you doing it for?

Go at your pace and enjoy the small things ☕️ Coffee is one of my favourite. It’s even better when my husband brings me a coffee while I’m getting ready 💕

The only time is now 💚

Take these 2 rainbow 🌈 lorikeets for example, they were friendly enough to sit while I took their photo 😀
The only time was that moment, a press of the button and I caught a great image, right after I took this photo they flew away!

So many people are waiting for the perfect moment to start something or do something that they are afraid of…

What are you waiting for??

The only time is now 💚

Another beautiful review from a client 💚

Sometimes I don’t know how the client feels at the end of session, so this speaks volumes 🙏🏻

Choose love abundance and gratitude

It’s been awhile … from some of my clients 💚

Everyone has the same hours in the day. What makes some of us say we have time and some of us have no time?

Stay curious 😀

Hi there, if I were to do a video on healthy anxiety and unhealthy anxiety would you know the difference?

Hands 🙌 up emoji if you would?

So many people suffer in silence it doesn’t have to be you 🌱💚🙏🏻

There are many ways I guide clients and this is one of them.

I am so grateful to connect and guide people around the world 🌎
