It’s okay to be brave. It’s okay to have courage. It’s okay to ask for help 💜

🎨:

Retake control of your mind and start creating the best version of yourself💜

You create your reality. Are you happy with what you’ve created so far?
🙏🏼

Start your Monday off right!
💜

The only thing on our To-Do list this weekend 💜

It’s time to learn to love ourselves fully 💜

What do you need today?
💜

Your mental state will be reflected in every area of your life. It’s time to take matters into your own hands, get support and accountability, and feel your best every day!

🙏🏼💜

Wellness requires a holistic approach: intentionally balancing all areas of life to create harmony and peace within. If any one (or multiple) area/s of your life feels out of balance, start asking yourself what might be missing or where you might be able to focus more love to bring things together 💜

Having a coach to help guide you in the right direction and to provide support & accountability goes a long way! You are never alone! 🙏🏼

Relationship abuse has risen. Abuse is the transference of childhood pain on to another person. The abuser feels justified in that their lover or child did something, and therefore they caused the abuse. Their fault! No abuse is ok.

🙏💪🏻👏🏻

It’s okay to ask for help. You are never alone!

From Coach Karen with 💜🙏:

I have been in healthcare for 34 yrs, I have been a nurse practitioner and therapist -counselling and coaching clients for 20. That means I counsel and treat with meds. Mental illness is real, that is not in question. What is questionable is why people believe they then cannot have mental wellness. The brain is an organ. The mind is where memories are stored. Painful memories /trauma create all mental illness. Yes .. I will say that again. Trauma creates mental distress! You may say.. “I have the same problem that my mom, or dad or grandparents have… I was told it is genetic.” Traumatized people, if not healed will pass their trauma generationally.. the science of epigenetics has proven this. When there is trauma, the mind holds on to memories, creating sadness, anger, fear, hurt, guilt, rage, shame…. Which then is projected on others.. passing the trauma to family.
All mental illness is rooted in trauma. Addictions are all rooted in trauma. Heal the trauma, emotional wellness is possible. If you break a leg, a cast is used.. when the leg is healed, we remove the cast. The brain is also an organ that needs healing. Present protocols do not heal trauma, which is why people continue to struggle. It saddens me how many people are on numberous meds for mental distress, and are told they can never come off once on, and no one questions. The rate of mental distress is more now then ever. If what we are doing was working, the numbers would be less. Yes there is help, no not all therapies can heal traumas. There are many that do. Here is a hint.. if you are struggling, been in therapy /or on meds for 3 months or more and still have symptoms, the root cause is not been healed. For the past 10 years my therapy has changed to focus on healing trauma. All of my clients improve quickly and since the emotional pain is gone, happiness, joy, motivation return, thus meds are reduced and many do not require, even after years being treated! You can choose to keep doing what you are doing .. the results will be the same- or you can do something different and get a different result.

Be well.. take back your health and know there are therapies that can heal trauma. Yes is it possible!

Please….💜🙏

Covid has enough challenges, stress can act as an excuse

We may not always believe in ourselves or have faith in ourselves…but if we keep being the best version of ourselves in every little situation, we can hold our heads up, taking the high road to peace and happiness 💜🙏💜 after all….what more is there than that?

There’s always another tool out there to add to your toolbox….just don’t ever stop growing…🙏♥️

Set boundaries…expectations…it will change your life ♥️🙏

"Happy people set limits on what they will and will not allow in their lives" - Dr. Henry Cloud

Growth happens when we push ourselves to be uncomfortable….stretching ourselves and doing intimidating things is how we evolve…keep moving forward! ♥️

“You can't control the curve balls life throws you, so you have to learn how to control yourself and change quickly to make sure the curve ball doesn't knock you out.”

“Each time our lives spin in another direction we’re forced to adjust and reevaluate what’s important to us.

With each curveball, we essentially need to review our values and reset if necessary.

We want all the dots to line up perfectly, right?

But however, my dear. That isn’t life. Life isn’t neat and clean.

Life is messy.

What. Do. You. Do?
Your life is MESSY.

Truthfully, if it’s clean, there are probably two things wrong:

🙏You aren’t truthful with yourself
🙏or you aren’t really living it!

Because. Life. Is. Messy.

Sometimes it can feel like life throws you so many curveballs. You aren’t sure of your next step. You can feel defeated.

But you have a CHOICE!

You can focus your time and energy on getting knocked down 9 times...

Or you can brush yourself off and get up 10 times!

The choice is yours…. You were made to weather any storm and to do hard things; brushing yourself off is something you’ve done before…. what’s ONE more try going to hurt?

Give yourself credit! You’ve done amazing things and will continue to do amazing things so keep going.

Don’t give up now. ❤️

Here’s to a new day. Hope you all have a good one. 🙂

When life gives you snow!!
Play in the snow…

Taking time to stop and notice beauty. Lives are busy, many rush around going no where, doing nothing important. The best gift you can give yourself and others is time, gratitude and peace… and breathe. We create from within.

-Coach Karen

Start doing one small thing everyday that supports your dream✨

These things don’t happen overnight, and we shouldn’t expect them to. Dreams and goals are reached after many hundreds, even thousands, of tiny actions. The key is being consistent.

One small thing a day, EVERY SINGLE DAY, will create the dream faster than you think.

-Coach Sara-Anne
