At this time of year, it can be easy to forget that it's not the magazine spread of perfect, happy families for everyone. There's many people dreading this time of year. The introverts who find relentless socialising and "being on" exhausting. Those with "complicated" family dynamics, with love and hate and hurt and a million things left unsaid. The lonely and alone, made to feel like the odd ones out. And of course, there's many for whom this time [...]

Learning to be the parent your inner child’s needs

So how are you doing with getting to know your inner child? What ages are they when they show up? And perhaps most importantly, how are you getting on with understanding them, and being kind and compassionate to them? I hope last week's blog gave you a few pointers on how to tune into them, how they might be impacting you, and how to start to build a relationship with them. And also helped shine a light on why [...]

Successful socialising as an introvert (and getting through Christmas)
