Physician, heal thyself (more support required!)…
I can’t believe this is my first Blog Post of 2023…. I tend to emerge slowly, but this is slower than ever before… I think I have finally put a lot of the impact of the last 3 years behind me…
Big changes in life, in the world, have a huge impact, & often, we are in so much shock, we don’t even realise the extent of the stress – some of that has been true for me (hence the title of the post), but I’m still seeing it in clients. The ‘Covid years’ have done terrible things to the world, & so much is still filtering through only now – in all sorts of ways – as these crises do…
One of the most joyful aspects of being a therapist is sharing the process of being human, witnessing people’s challenges & supporting them through it. Primarily, in my case, this is using bodywork, but it can include many other ‘add-ons’ relating to lifestyle, which can be quite dramatic in their impact. This is all client led, but the broad experience of almost 40 years in health & wellbeing means I have utilised many pro health approaches, & can share these….
However… as I was saying to someone recently, you have to remember to use them for yourself too, as a therapist, in order to be ‘fit for purpose’!! Sometimes, when your own life is blasting you, this can be a challenge & you need to access more support.. and that is where I am now… working on healing myself with more support!
