2026!! first day of the year with a fresh water dip at Ormiston Gorge. I had grand plans of being overly organised and staying connected over this festive period but instead life life’d and I’ve spent time turning inwards and cocooning with family and loved ones- A privilege indeed. Looking forward to seeing how this year unfolds.
Practising your sibling side-eye before Christmas dinner. That sacred, silent exchange that says: “Did you hear that?” “I heard that.” “We’ll unpack this later.” Christmas tables can be a minefield of opinions, memories and old dynamics. Having one safe person you can glance at, debrief with, or escape to the kitchen with can be the difference between coping and combusting. Safe people let you: • share a look instead of starting a fight • whisper “you ok?” without making it a thing • feel seen without rupturing the whole day
If December could talk it would say: “You’re almost there!! … just kidding, here are 47 more events, 12 assemblies, a few deadlines, 6 Secret Santa gifts, class parties and a partridge in a pear tree.” ⁠ This time of year is such a strange mix… you’re so close to the end, yet somehow everything ramps up before it winds down. Work is wrapping up, kids are exhausted, calendars are bursting… feeling festive can feel out of reach. ⁠ If you’re limping toward the finish line, you’re not alone. Tired, grumpy, stretched thin. December is a full body experience. ⁠ We’re nearly there!

In case there’s anyone prepping for birth out there in Mparntwe and beyond… enjoy! I made these in a little silly session with my favourite body double/ co work mate.

For Dec–Jan, I’m introducing sliding-scale pricing to make counselling more accessible during a time that can stretch both budgets and nervous systems. As a private counsellor without Medicare rebates, I know fees can be a barrier. This flexible structure lets you choose a price point that supports your wellbeing rather than adding to the overwhelm. Details on my website- link in bio.

Nervous system poetry. Why not?! A sneaky, gentle way to notice where you are rather than bulldozing through the overwhelm. Polyvagal theory tells us our autonomic states shift all day. From mobilisation (fight/ flight), to shutdown or grounded safet
Nervous system poetry. Why not?! A sneaky, gentle way to notice where you are rather than bulldozing through the overwhelm. Polyvagal theory tells us our autonomic states shift all day. From mobilisation (fight/ flight), to shutdown or grounded safety. Putting your states into a tiny poem can give shape to what feels chaotic. My haiku- written in the middle of a “I want to run far from my desk” moment: Strap me to this chair It will not come together Deep breaths, clear thinking A little fight/ flight in line one. A bit of collapse in line two. A hopeful return to regulation in line three. Don’t overthink it. Just notice your state and not down three lines.
Notes on acceptance!
