Many survivors — whether from childhood abuse, domestic violence, or other traumatic events — carry the false belief that they were responsible for what happened to them. These thoughts often stem from manipulation by abusers, societal stigma, or the brain’s own attempt to make sense ...

At the heart of EMDR is a remarkable technique that uses bilateral stimulation—li...

Sometimes, the past feels like it’s got a grip on you, making it hard to focus on anything else. But here’s the thing—healing doesn’t mean forgetting. It means understanding, processing, and giving yourself the kindness you’d offer a friend.

On our journey to recovery and healing, when our resilience feels has disappeared, we tend to focus on what things have not gone right.

Today we focus on why that may be, and we will do a visualisation to find a compassionate and kind vow to ourselves, that will help you to work on what it matters and is valuable for you!

Hope you enjoy.
