"If you don't like how things are, change it! You're not a tree." — Jim Rohn

This might be Jim's most direct piece of advice.

No philosophy. No framework. Just a simple truth: if something in your life isn't working, you have the ability to change it.

You're not stuck. You're not trapped. You're not a tree.

The only question is: what are you going to do about it?

Recent research published by Elise R Facer-Childs et al. in 2019 suggest that night owls have higher incidences of health issues, mood disorders, poor performance and even increased mortality rates.
Neuroscientist Andrew Huberman suggests the following strategies to become an early riser:

1) Maximise early day sunlight exposure
2) No caffeine or naps post 3 pm
3) Minimise post 8 pm light exposure
4) Exercise within 2 hours of waking
5) Go to sleep 2-3 hours earlier
6) Wake up 2-3 hours earlier

I agree with Tom Bodett if you have something to do, someone to love (and is reciprocated), and you have something to hope for, chances are that you can be happy.

As a counsellor, hope is something of particular importance. When people have hope in life, it is a great sign of mental wellbeing.

Fear of abandonment is common when individuals have an insecure attachment style.
Attachment is formed in childhood as a result of the relationship with our main caregiver, usually the mother.

If our needs were not met fully during childhood, we could fear abandonment later on in adulthood in friendship and intimate relationships. There are ways to deal with this fear, it doesn’t have to control your life.
If you’d like to work with me I specialise in relationship problems and I received in-depth training on attachment theory.

Book an initial consultation with me today and let me help you become more secure in your relationships.

They say that relationships gain importance and value for people’s mental health especially as they get older.

In my 20s I often prioritised studying and work, often, at the expenses of relationships.
But the more time passes, the more I realise the important role of relationships for happiness and mental wellbeing.

People truly have the ability to make our souls blossom.

November was the month dedicated to men’s mental health.
If you lived in Australia you must have seen moustache stickers on the front of buses.
However, men's mental health is important to be acknowledged all year round. Men are way more likely to take their own life and refrain from asking for mental health support.

You never know what is going on in someone’s mind, be kind.

Cultivating friendships should be one of our focuses if we want to improve mental health. Not every friend is the same.

Real friends are people with whom you feel free to be yourself with. These people love you not despite our vulnerabilities and imperfections but because of them.

It is important to value these relationships and cultivate them.

The mind-body connection is a real phenomenon.
Our emotional states influence how we feel physically. When you start paying attention to your body you can easily recognise how you feel.

If you are experiencing a great deal of negative emotions and you would like some help to manage them I can help you.

Your inner voice, also called self-talk, has a very impactful effect on your life.
That monologue can be a great friend or a challenging enemy.

It is extremely hard to constantly monitor how you talk to yourself, but you can change it with conscious effort.
