Caught Up In Self Judgment
The other morning I was just sat looking at my little girl thinking how cute she looked with her bed hair! I wanted to eat her (that's a funny phrase isn’t it?!).
I felt so much love towards her it made me think: How do we look at a child’s dimples, bed hair and other things that just seem so cute to us but then the same things in adults we apologise for and we discount ourselves for.
How many times have we said "excuse the state of me" or something to that effect?
I know I have, even this week!
As we start to get older and we get so caught up in thought and and insecurities that we can potentially judge ourselves so much, which then really effects the way we feel or how we show up in the world.
It doesn’t need to be like this, we can see the innocence and the beauty within each and every one of us, from when we start out as cute babies, that doesn’t go anywhere we just add judgment and criticism to the equation and can easily forget how wonderful we are!
I have learnt to let go more over the years, of the judgment of myself, seeing the beauty of my imperfections (meaning are they even imperfections in the first place?).
We are all wonderfully imperfect, but imperfection is perfection in itself. It's being human.
Seeing this has also meant that I have found it much more easy to lower expectations of myself in general enabling me to have more room for joy and presence in my life.
I need to say as always though:
sometimes I do get caught up,
sometimes I do get insecure,
sometimes I do judge myself.
BUT I am much more able to catch myself quicker and switch to love, compassion and acceptance when I need it most!

Are we overcomplicating mental health?
The continuous spiral of talking about mental illness and neglecting to discuss mental health that’s within us all!
Finding herself in a mental hospital for a month aged 22, her worst fears of going crazy had come true! Sarie truly believed she was broken for many years, and now sees that this was in part due to massively over complicating what it meant be a human being. After a long period of exploring and training as a psychotherapist, still burning out every 18 months for another ten years, Sarie finally found the answer, and now shares the surprising simplicity of it all to help others get the same relief.
Sarie has trained as a transactional analysis psychotherapist, as well as working and training in many other therapeutic disciplines, such as NLP, CBT, DBT and hypnotherapy. Sarie is also an author, celebrity coach and therapist, working with thousands of people a year, of all ages, all over the world. Her main aim is to help them really see the simplicity and beauty behind human nature, getting out of their heads and into their lives, being able to see that the inside out nature of life really is a gift. This removes limitations and stories they may hold about themselves, and as a result finding an ease and contentment in life they often never knew was possible.

This is beautiful and so true. I love my babies when they first wake up and have sleepy faces and hair ☺️
