@latibulecounseling reframing thoughts through parts work. We may feel some ‘parts’ of ourselves more acutely at different times.Sometimes a part can feel so dominant it begins to feel like our most accurate self. Although it can feel natural to align completely with one thought or emotions, over-identifying with one part can cause us to overlook other feelings and sensations we may be experiencing. It can be helpful to acknowledge our emotions as parts of ourselves rather than our whole or only selves. Seeing emotions as parts makes room for all our emotions, even those that feel conflicting. #allpartswelcome #reframe #internalfamilysystems

Loving @yallaroza’s beautiful illustrations and powerful messages.

Making room for the ups and downs can be an important part of understanding and regulating our emotions. Like noticing the tide change without expectation that it should remain the same. May we appreciate and accept the ebb and flow in ourselves the same way we do when we look at the ocean. by @ponymtl

#allpartsarewelcome "In my practice as a clinical psychologist, I’m mostly hearing about anxiety related to illness and the economy. But some of my clients hav...e expressed giddinessnot about the many abysmal parts of this pandemic, of course, but about how they’ve changed aspects of their own lives in response to it." See more

Some interesting ideas for building ritual and routine.

Our current situation is not like anything we have ever experienced or anticipated. Our bodies and our minds may be swinging between a lot of different emotions. You may be confused about why you feel tired but also full of restless energy. You may move from gratitude for the safety of your home to frustration about not being able to leave it. For most of us, the experience of sitting in uncertainty is enormously challenging. As an exercise you might try inviting yourself to ...notice all our feelings, without shame or judgment. You might try observing your thoughts as though you are listen to someone you truly love. What might it feel like to let go of efforts towards a solution? To listen with compassion and kindness. What might it feel like to acknowledge all your feelings? What might it be like to surrender to this moments uncertainty? @peopleiveloved #onlinetherapy #vancouvercounselling #vancouveronlinecounselling #vancouvertherapy See more
