Why ‘Mastering’ Our Emotional Regulation Is So Powerful

Today’s article was written by Change Coach Suzie Yeulett We have very little control over what happens in life. I saw this when I lost my Mum. Rather than this thought scaring me, it felt like freedom. There’s less for us ‘to do’, or to manage. That doesn’t mean we do nothing, it means we can just do

Worrying and Caring Are Not the Same Thing

Today’s article was written by Change Coach Kristina Bruce The other day I posted a video to YouTube titled “You DON’T Need to WORRY About What You Eat.

Relax

The word ‘relax’ has taken on many meanings for me throughout the years. As a kid with energy to burn, I heard “relax”. Stop being so full of life. The adults wanted peace and quiet. Then, relax felt unnatural. As an anxious 20-something, I heard conflicting advice. “Work hard, make something of yourself, what you do now matters”.

Losing Weight Won’t Make You “Feel Like Yourself”

Today’s article was written by Change Coach Becky Gagnon I hear this phrase often from people who want to lose weight: “I just don’t feel like myself at this weight. I want to feel like myself again.” Here’s the thing though: you ARE yourself. You are yourself. Your “you-ness” doesn’t come from your body. How could it? If it did,

When Your World Feels Small…Say Yes

When I was struggling with anxiety, my world was tiny. I went to class, but only when there was an open seat right by the door. I can’t tell you how many times I walked by the classroom, saw that the only open seats were way across the room, and kept walking.  I went to the grocery
