Here are some great affirmations for battling shame if you’re unsure where to start. In moments of shame, self-compassion is crucial. #raiselightencare #yycpsychology #Relevare #yyctherapy #SexAddiction #selfcompassion

Focusing on sobriety goals may seem innocent, but to the addict it often leads to shame by hyperfocusing on achievement and reinforcing the idea that they only ...have worth if they’re not using. Instead, focus on the present moment. What steps do you need to work today? What do you need to do right now to make the most out of the situation that you’re in? How might your life be different today if you lived today with the awareness that everything changes? . . . #raiselightencare #relevare #addiction #addictionrecovery #sobriety #yycpsychology

Over the holidays, I had the opportunity to make my first kintsugi. It definitely isn’t perfect, but I think that’s the point. Read on to learn more about what kintsugi is and its beautiful message of accepting and embracing our flaws. . . . #kintsugi #broken #raiselightencare #yyctherapy #yycpsychologist #relevare... . . . https://www.relevarecounselling.ca/blog/kintsugi

What problems or feelings do you struggle with in your life? What have you tried to do to get rid of them? Has it worked? What is the cost of having to live like that? And are you willing to try something new? Whether it’s addiction trying to manage our shame and trauma, safety behaviours like pulling away from friends/family to manage our anxiety/depression, or other strategiessometimes, the solution is the problem. Or, at least, maintains it. Our personal story of recover...y and healing must involve moving beyond our current understanding. If we continue to do what we’ve always done, we’ll continue to get what we’ve always got. If you feel you need a safe space to process emotions or want to explore seeing your problems in a new way, reach out for help. There is always hope. #raiselightencare #alberteinstein #act #yyctherapy #yycpsychologist #relevare
