From what I learnt at Tafe a trauma informed approach means creating a safe environment, creating trust, giving choice, working in collaboration and empowering your consumers/clients

@AuntGlow my intention to be kinder to myself...is a work in progress. Negative thoughts are tough to shake.
I haven't journalled either, so haven't met that intention.
To be honest I don't know what my gut is saying needs to be my focus right now. I think I'm going to stick with the two intentions I have for this week and continue to work towards those.

I am working on self compassion too. It is difficult to believe the positive things when you are used to being so hard on yourself. Hugs hun

Trying not to beat myself up too much.
I did make these pumpkin cheese puffs popcorn and patty cakes kids helped with that one.
Other than that just struggled
And now it's silly o'clock and sleep is not anywhere in sight though I'm exhausted.
Trying to make myself sleepy without getting frustrated or angry. My mind is like a bloody video soon as I close my eyes playing over the day or anything really.
This week I'm going crazy and I have therapy tomorrow so hopefully that session will help. Although is it normal to get therapy anxiety? I have no idea what keeping me awake...
Small steps
Therapy I can do that.

@Dimity Wow, that is so interesting! 'The details don't matter, it's the attitude' - I am going to try and implement this throughout my day, I love it!
Have you found a moment that has sparked joy this week? 💛

This is amazing!! I would love to hear some of the things you are proud of. Do you write them in a phone or journal?
And what have you noticed has changed about how you feel since writing things down? @Oaktree 🤩

Thank you for sharing this with us @Shaz51. Hmm... what does your heart say when you consider what to do with mum's ornaments? ❤️
