Thrive with Esther Jones, MSc

While we may not have control over external events or circumstances in life, we do have the ability to control how we think, feel, and respond to them. Our thoughts, emotions, and reactions are within our domain of influence.

THINK 🤔
Having power over how we think involves our perspectives, beliefs, and attitudes. We can choose to adopt a positive mindset and develop a constructive outlook on life. By cultivating empowering thoughts, we can shape our perception of the world and our experiences.

FEEL 🤗
Similarly, we have the capacity to regulate our emotions. While we may not be able to control the initial emotions that arise, we can influence how we respond to them. Through self-awareness and emotional intelligence, we can learn to manage and channel our emotions in healthier ways.

RESPOND 💪
Lastly, our responses to situations are within our control. We can choose how we act or behave in response to challenges or events. By developing self-discipline, resilience, and problem-solving skills, we can make conscious choices over our responses and shape our relationships, outcomes, and achievements.

Focusing on what we can influence empowers us to navigate life's uncertainties and challenges in a more purposeful and constructive way.

The most important person in your life is YOU. 💫✨

You are the driving force behind your dreams, your happiness, and your overall well-being. Remember, it's not selfish to prioritize yourself. It's essential. You deserve it. 💖🌟

This programme can help ANYONE.

Anyone with something in their life they would like to change or improve: from simple things like phobias and fears, to dealing with huge life-changing experiences like cancer or clinical depression.

Maybe you want to free yourself from stress, aid recovery from an operation, get rid of social anxiety, defeat your depression, get into a good relationship or just ‘thrive'?
Whatever your aims, this programme represents on of the very best ways of taking back control of your life, and achieving the changes you desire.

I have been teaching The Thrive Programme to young people age 8-18yrs for 8 years both face to face or online.

Young people who have studied the Thrive Programme feel better, feel more confident and have increased their self esteem to healthy levels. Any fears they may have had will be easily managed by teaching them how to think better.

Hundreds of young people over the last 14 years have overcome their anxieties about school, studies, exams & peers by completing the Thrive Programme.

It’s amazing! 📚

Completed in just 7 sessions!
It’s fun, educational and empowering!

What does that mean?
To really understand yourself is to know your psychological make-up, and what makes you tick.
When you understand exactly how YOUR mind works, then, and ONLY then, can you set about changing it with relative ease.

Here are the main reasons why this programme will help EVERYONE to make significant changes in their life:
🧐 When you genuinely understand how your mind works (the interaction between your beliefs, your thinking, your emotions and your experiences), you feel much more in control and empowered.
🤯 Once you really understand how most of your problems, stresses, symptoms and ill health are either caused or made worse BY your beliefs and thinking, you feel FANTASTIC because if YOU are influencing these problems, then YOU can change them!
💪 Once you BELIEVE that you can achieve change, you will put in massive, determined effort to do so. Indeed, research has suggested that the more you can perceive or imagine the benefits of your hard effort, the more hard effort you will put in (e.g. Eiser et al., 1985). The techniques we show you are very easy to put into practice.

Learn the skills, insights and techniques you need to have a happy, positive and exciting life – one in which you really flourish 🌟💫

Remember, the key to thriving in your life lies within you. 🌿✨

Remember, when your inner world thrives, your ability to conquer any challenge and achieve your goals soars to new heights. 🌟💚

Think about a time when you were worried about something, but you didn't say "I can't", instead you said "I can" and you took that first step... And you did it! You got a little dose of confidence to take another small step, then another, and another.

Don't wait to feel confident to do something you want to do. Just start, and your confidence will catch up.

Life's waves keep rolling in, sometimes unstoppable and fierce. Instead of fighting against them, learn to ride their rhythm and conquer the highs and lows. Learning to ride the waves involves a mental health skill set anyone at any age can build 💪🌊🏄‍♂️

Isn't the weather lovely today? ☀️ Do you find yourself reacting to the weather and letting it dictate your mood? While it's easy to think that sunny weather automatically improves our mood or that gloomy weather can make us feel down, the truth is that the weather itself is just... well, the weather.

Sure, sunny days allow us to do more, like going out with fewer layers or enjoying the park without the fear of getting cold or wet. But it's not the weather itself that has a direct impact on our emotions. It's our thoughts and beliefs about the weather, as well as our thinking styles, that truly drive our mood.

This lighthearted example highlights how our thinking can make us feel either powerful or powerless in different situations, sometimes leaving us feeling out of control. Understanding the profound influence of our thoughts on our emotions and behaviours can help us realise just how much control we actually have over our lives.

By learning about our thinking patterns and taking control of our moods and emotions, we can experience a significant shift towards happiness, positivity, and excitement in life. In fact, it's estimated that 95% of what we need to do to become happier and more positive is related to understanding and managing our thinking.

The best gift a parent can give to a child is not the latest trainers, iPhone or computer game etc, it's teaching the child how to be the best version of themselves. I see a lot of youngsters with anxiety or who are just worried in general about school, friendships or who doubt themselves. Whilst, as a parent, we try to do our best for them, we don't realise we have passed on some unhelpful beliefs. The best way to help your child is to understand yourself first. The successes of children I have helped increase dramatically when the parent has fully undertaken the Thrive Programme themselves. This is the VERY best way of helping the child. Please contact me for a confidential chat or book in to see me. It really is life changing.

✨ Life can throw us unexpected curveballs, from diagnoses to changes in personal and professional circumstances. But no matter what we face, the key to thriving lies in focusing on 𝙬𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙬𝙚 𝙘𝙖𝙣 𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙩𝙧𝙤𝙡.⁣
⁣
💪 It's easy to feel overwhelmed by things beyond our influence, but we have the power to choose our mindset and shape our response to life's trials.⁣
⁣
🌻 Instead of dwelling on what we cannot change, it’s important to shift our focus to what lies within our power. Redirect our energy towards the actions, thoughts, and choices that can can control to make a positive impact on our lives.⁣
⁣
💡 The Thrive Programme is designed to 𝙚𝙢𝙥𝙤𝙬𝙚𝙧 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙖𝙡 𝙨𝙠𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙨 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙤𝙪𝙧𝙘𝙚𝙨 𝙩𝙤 𝙩𝙖𝙠𝙚 𝙘𝙝𝙖𝙧𝙜𝙚 𝙤𝙛 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙖𝙡 𝙝𝙚𝙖𝙡𝙩𝙝. If you're facing a diagnosis or going through a difficult time, educating yourself and surrounding yourself with a supportive community can make a world of difference.⁣
⁣
🌟 By cultivating resilience and embracing optimism, you can train your mind to find possibilities amidst challenges. Acknowledge your emotions without letting them define you. Focus on what you can do and the opportunities that exist within and around you.⁣
⁣
🙌 As they say self-care isn't selfish; it's a vital component of your journey towards you making your life, better.⁣
⁣
🌟 The Thrive Programme was created to help you take control of your mental health, overcome obstacles, and learn the skills to live the life you want.

🔍 Improving self-awareness may seem daunting, but it's totally achievable with the right tools and a little practice. 📚✨

🤔 Self-awareness is all about paying attention to how you think, feel, and behave. Let's break it down: 👇

💭 Patterns of thought: Take note of how you perceive and explain what happens to you. What's your self-talk like? Do certain situations or people shape your expectations? Explore your core beliefs that influence your thinking. 🧠

💫 Patterns of emotion: Understand your own moods and emotions. Do you observe and try to comprehend them or react impulsively? Do you see difficult emotions as enemies or messengers? Do you feel emotions are happening to you or that you have ownership? 🌈

🚶‍♂️ Patterns of behaviour: Recognise why you tend to act in certain ways. What triggers your actions? Discover the motives behind your behaviours and uncover any self-sabotage tendencies. 🔄

🔎 In other words, self-awareness means being curious about your own mind. Embrace the benefits that come with it: 🌟

1️⃣ Better relationships: by understanding yourself better, you can communicate your needs and set boundaries effectively; strengthen your personal values; and enhance your connections. ❤️

2️⃣ Calmer moods: link your thoughts to your emotions and learn to regulate them; gain control over chronic worry and anxiety, fostering a sense of inner peace. 🧘‍♀️

3️⃣ Clearer thinking and better decision-making: unravel muddled thoughts and emotional reactions; distinguish between short-term impulses and long-term values, leading to wise choices. 🤔✅

4️⃣ Increased productivity: overcome hidden obstacles hindering your progress; self-awareness helps you identify and eliminate self-imposed barriers, boosting your productivity levels. 🚀💪

💡 Self-awareness is crucial for personal growth. This programme is all about building skills, helping you to be self aware and capable of feeling confident in your skillset to achieve the life that you want. Message me if you would like more information 🌱✨

A lot of us put effort into physical fitness such as yoga, running, walking or the gym but don't realise that mental fitness is also important. If we are rigid in our thinking and obsess about situations, work or hobbies, we create problems and anxiety. Flexibility is key in how we view life experiences, goals, family, relationships and work. This is one of the areas the Thrive Programme focuses on, teaching what beliefs are, where beliefs came from and how some are the reason we are not Thriving.

Please call me for a chat or make an appointment to see me, you will be happy you did.

Hello👋 Today, I want to talk about the similarities between working on mental health and your physical health. 💪🧠

🏋️‍♀️ Just like physical health, mental health requires consistent effort and attention to maintain. You wouldn't expect to run a marathon without training, would you? The same goes for your mental health. It takes practice to build resilience and coping skills. 🧘‍♀️

🍎 Additionally, just as a healthy diet and exercise routine benefit your physical health, learning invaluable and practical ways to adjust and improve your thinking will boost your mental health.

🚫 Finally, neglecting your mental health can have serious consequences, just like neglecting your physical health can lead to illness or injury. It's important to take care of both aspects of your wellbeing.

So, let's prioritise our mental health and physical health together. Every little step counts. 💕

And here's the answer...⁣
⁣
The Thrive Programme® isn't really about treating specific symptoms - it's about learning to thrive. The real reason you experience symptoms of poor mental health is because you are not managing your thinking styles, psychological foundations, coping skills, emotions, mindset and self esteem in a helpful way.⁣
⁣
People who suffer from anxiety typically have similar thinking styles, unhelpful beliefs and low self-esteem. The same goes for depression, OCD, panic disorders, phobias, social anxiety and other mental health struggles.⁣
⁣
Research has shown that poor mental processing will lead to anxiety, depression, stress, overthinking, excessive worrying, and other symptoms of poor mental health. 𝘐𝘵'𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘺𝘮𝘱𝘵𝘰𝘮, as the symptom is actually the end result of powerless and unhelpful thinking.⁣
⁣
The Thrive Programme® is an easy-to-understand and easy-to-apply training programme that works. It is not a therapy or counselling intervention. ⁣
⁣
People progress through the programme in a very similar way. It is a programme because it teaches strategies and techniques to take full responsibility for your own mental health. The programme is not a set of random sessions, it has a beginning, middle and end. The results are very predictable. You can compare it to personal training sessions at the gym...going consistently and regularly for a number of weeks and focussing on specific skills or muscle groups will get you better results than having random workouts here and there without a detailed plan of action.⁣
⁣
By learning the thriving skill set, you will develop strong psychological foundations, helpful thinking styles, and coping skills to navigate all of life's challenges...your symptoms will soon disappear and you will feel much better.⁣
⁣
"Life is 10% what happens to vou and 90% how vou respond to it.”⁣

The Thrive Programme® equips you with the tools and resources to successfully manage 90% of your entire life.

It’s Monday morning 🙌 So how are you thinking to start the week??

It might seem a bit simplistic but the research shows we have on average around 50,000 thoughts a day give it take (that’s a whopping 350,000a week 😵!). If the majority of your thoughts are worries, fears, what if or anything unhelpful and negative, that will be your experience on any given day. That’s going to have a HUGE impact. It’s the difference between creating a lot of stress in response to events and situations and feeling powerful and able to cope 💪

I am not suggesting we can manage every single one but I am suggesting that we can choose to challenge any worry and find a way to think about it, or better still - chuck it out 🗑️ And go think of something else.

There is obviously more to learning about creating great mental health than this, however, it is a great start.

Think yourself into a good week starting now 🤓

⁣
All mental health is on a spectrum. When someone gets themselves to having good mental health, they can easily get themselves to thriving and feeling good every day. Creating good mental health is all about how powerful you feel in relation to your life, your capabilities, their goals, overcoming symptoms, handling challenges, choosing your attitude, your focus, your responses and your actions.⁣
⁣
Your power comes from WHAT YOU CAN DO. It’s all about what you CAN DO; this is anything you can do right now to increase your sense of power and control. ⁣
⁣
If you need help building your sense of power, get in touch and learn to take control of your mental health, overcome any problems or symptoms that are holding you back, and learn the skills to live the life you really want.⁣
