The Arty Buddha - Life Coach

Something meaningful is on the way…

Behind the scenes, something powerful is being built.

What We Think CIC is preparing to launch a new space for people who want real change — whether that’s rebuilding after addiction, strengthening their mindset, or finding support through difficult life experiences.

This isn’t just another programme.

It’s a community led by people who understand the journey, many of whom have walked it themselves.

Support.
Structure.
Real conversations.
Real progress.

✨ Don’t let your internal critic 🧠 steal your Friday. ✨

Friday is a beautiful day — full of light, possibility, and the chance to take back control, allowing you to reset the mind. 🌿

But too often, the internal critic tries to run the show: overthinking, doubting, filling your mind with nonsense & noise.

Today, remember this: you are not that voice.

Awareness is your superpower. When you recognise the chatter, just pause, then separate yourself from it.

Every time you separate yourself from the negative intrusive thoughts, you take back control. 💪

💨 Breathe deep.
🌞 Choose your energy.
🌿 Shape this day as beautifully as you can.

👉 Don’t let your mind run louder than your life.

This Friday belongs to you❗️

💭 Share below: What’s one thought you’re letting go of today?

Do you ever catch yourself overthinking until your mind feels louder than your life? 🧠💭

Overthinking pulls you into endless “what ifs” and future worries — but most of them never happen. It steals today’s peace for tomorrow’s problems.

Here are 3 ways to shift your headspace when your mind won’t switch off:

✨ Ask yourself: “What’s true right now?”
Instead of spinning in “what if” stories, anchor yourself to facts. This breaks the loop of imagined scenarios.

☁️ Let your thoughts drift away like clouds
Close your eyes. Imagine each thought as a cloud in the sky. Watch it float past instead of clinging to it. The mind softens when you stop holding on.

🌿 Use the 5-4-3-2-1 grounding technique

Name:

5 things you can see 👀

4 things you can feel ✋

3 things you can hear 👂

2 things you can smell 👃

1 thing you can taste 👅

This pulls you back into the present moment and out of your head.

💭 Reflection: What’s one thought you could let drift away today? Share it in the comments ⬇️

🏆 Huge thanks to everyone who supported us along the way.

🙏✨ Feeling grateful and excited for what's next!

🚫💔 Boundaries are important external representations of our values that help keep us safe emotionally and physically.

💪 We must assert our boundaries and share them with others to protect our well-being and create healthy relationships.

😔 When our boundaries are disrespected and ignored, we may be left feeling anxious, sad, angry, or confused.

🤔 We can identify where we need to have boundaries in place by being aware of times we have been made to feel these emotions. As you identify the discomfort, you can label the boundary.

💪🌟 Protecting our peace from being violated and our values from being compromised by external factors is important for our overall well-being, and it is within our power to do this. We all have a right to say no to situations that do not serve us.

💬 Do you feel powerless in controlling how others affect your emotions?

🤷‍♀️ Do you struggle to identify what your boundaries should be?

💭🤔 Failing forward.

🤔 Have you ever considered that failing doesn’t mean you’re a failure and that, actually, failing is for winners?

💪 In order to fail, we must first try.

😰 How many of us never find the courage to try in the first place because of the fear of failing?

🎯 Think about a goal you would love to achieve but have never put a plan in place because you become overwhelmed with the failed fear.

👀 Now shift your perspective and think about what is the worst that could happen? You fail? Congratulations! 👏 You’re now one fail closer to success.

🧠 The next attempt has new experience and knowledge that you didn’t have previously!

🚫 Remove the negative connotations associated with failing, and you also remove the limits on what you’re able to achieve, which, in turn, invokes enthusiasm and motivation to reach for the stars.

💪🌟 What will you try and fail at today?

The man in the image above is a computer 🖥 programmer.

Have you ever thought 🧠  that you are the computer and the world 🌎 around you programmes you without giving it a second thought? 🤔

Our subconscious mind starts being programmed in the last trimester of being in the womb until we are around 7 years of age.

This is why children 🚸 are like sponges, absorbing everything.

As we grow into our adult years our programming becomes more fixed. 🔧

Think of everyday life as a form of conditioning where you are always learning 👩‍🏫 and adapting to new experiences and information, positive and negative.

Just like a computer can be programmed to perform certain functions and respond to certain inputs, you can also be programmed and conditioned through experiences, environment and social interactions to develop certain beliefs, habits and behaviours. ✨️

The way we are programmed in our early years is out of our control and could begin to hold us back in adulthood.

Just like a compute programme may have bugs🐛 and need to be debugged or updated, a persons programming and conditioning can also be flawed and in need of change.

By having an awareness of what is already written on our hardrives we can pinpoint ☝️ what behaviours we want to change and create new habits to overwrite what doesn’t serve us.

Looking for love?

Valentine’s🌹Day is known for being a celebration of love around the world. 🌍

If you don’t have a romantic partner you can still find love 💛 in other forms.

The western traditions of love stem from the Greeks and there are four types.

✨Eros, which is passionate love.

✨Philia, the love of friends and family.

✨Storge, the love of parents for their children.

✨Agape, the love of mankind.

Taking the time 🕒 to reflect 🪞on the many forms of love we have in our lives is an uplifting practice.

Allowing yourself to experience the joy these relationships bring is incredible for your mental 🧠 well-being.

Connection ♾️ with others is key, whether it comes from a partner, children, family, friends, pets or people you meet in your day-to-day life. 🙏

We can all embrace the sentiment of Valentine’s Day ❤️

💚🧙💚

Hope is the light that illuminates your path 🙏 through all of life's ups and downs 🎢

It is the flicker of light🕯in the darkness ♥️

Without hope, we would eventually cease to function and experience horrendous feelings of sadness, despair, and depression. 😟

Finding the courage to be strong takes faith in to the unknow, it takes strength, determination, and resilience.

Sometimes, you may not have certainty that things will improve, but it is important to have faith that there is a possibility for things to get better. 🙏
Take a moment to think, take yourself back to a time when someone said something to you, something that touched your heart, something that inspires you right now to find a little HOPE to bring back eveb a little piece peace or rest bite.

Try to remember that hopelessness doesn't have to be your permanent state of mind 🧠, you CAN regain HOPE. ✨️

Sending absolute love, care, and compassion to everyone who is reading this. 💛

HEDONISTIC TREADMILL

The hedonistic treadmill can be compared to a rollercoaster ride 🎢.

You might be someone that is constantly chasing after external sources of happiness 🔍, only to eventually return to your baseline levels of happiness 😔.

Just like the rollercoaster offers temporary thrills 🤪, the chase for happiness through materialistic possessions 💰 and status 💼 can lead to temporary highs 📈, which can be unhealthily for your well-being 🧘‍♀️.

Finding balance between both internal and external sources is key for fulfilling and sustaining happiness 💯😊.
