Happy World Gin Day!
I'm sure I'll be more sophisticated with an actual gin glass today, not a nutribullet cup 😂🤣
Needs must when it comes to road beers, It did include garnish!
Enjoy!

The word Anxiety has come up a lot with my clients over the last couple of weeks. We all feel it!
But...we worry about being anxious and feel guilty about its effects. We then try to eradicate it from our lives completely which makes things worse. Anxiety can be a signal, a valuable signal that something is wrong. It can provide us with an opportunity to grow. We don't change a job or a relationship that's bad for us unless it first feels bad. It's a vital part of life and we can learn to let it sit. Neither flee from it nor worry about it and make it worse. It's not the enemy, but a signal. Under the right circumstances, Anxiety can be a superpower.
When I feel anxiety, I stop and say to myself...
"Thank you for that feeling brain, however, it appears I am not in danger, I can control the situation and if I can't, I'll control the emotion I am feeling."
Instantly I am pulled out of fight or flight and can see things logically again. Then I can spend more time enjoying life with this cheeky monkey. Give it a go and let me know if it has helped you.

Mental Health Awareness Week
Tip 4. Challenge your thoughts.
We experience hundreds and thousands of thoughts each day. Not all of these thoughts will be positive. If you are experiencing negative thoughts take a moment to challenge them. Write down a list of the negative thoughts going through your mind and next to them write down some more rational positive ones.

Tip 3. Exercise regularly.
Sometimes you can forget about the important things like looking after yourself. Exercise is a great tool for reducing depression and anxiety. Walking, swimming, jogging or classes are a great week to look after yourself. If you join a club you will grow your network with like minded people too.

Mental Health Awareness Week.
Tip 2. Learn to problem solve.
Often when something goes wrong we tend to catastrophise or think about the worst-case scenario. Ask yourself: What is the worst thing that can happen? How can I learn from this? What is the most likely thing that can happen? What is the best thing that can happen?
Things are never as bad as our mind makes out, sometimes just making time for awareness of the real situation is all you need to bring you back into a positive mindset. Sometimes you can feel great as you may have learnt something new about yourself.

This week is Mental Health Awareness Week. Over the next couple of days, I will share my top tips for building positive mental health.
Tip 1. Let people know how you feel.
Often we are afraid to tell people how we feel and what we are thinking. Speak to family members, colleagues, and friends or visit the several fantastic mental health charities like Mind and Rethink which can also help you.

Happy Earth Day.
"We need to act (boldly), innovate (broadly), and implement (equitably). It’s going to take all of us. All in. Businesses, governments, and citizens — everyone accounted for, and everyone accountable. A partnership for the planet." www.earthday.org
We try every day to make the world a greener place but we are upping the ante at Gable Cottage, starting with a coaching session (including the support from my 3 year old) to agree actions and review regularly to hold ourselves accountable. What will you do to make a difference?

Happy Siblings Day
This is my younger sister and I. She most definitely lives by this quote 🤣😂...
“If you don’t annoy your big sister for no good reason from time to time, she thinks you don’t love her anymore.”
I love her and I am lucky to have friends that will always be adopted sisters too.
Sometimes relationships can be difficult, family or not. Coaching can help you understand yourself and understand them better which will help to strengthen the relationship. Get in touch if you would like to find out more.

We have decided to adopt quite a few Geese for my son to play with in the garden. Aren't they lovely!
If you have not guessed from my terrible clipart, Happy April Fools Day! 🤣😂
