We were thinking about change....

Hi everyone

We were thinking about change in the last blog and I would like to share a few more thoughts and ideas around the same theme this week. Change is definitely in the air as I write, it is chilly this morning and autumn is on its way.

The problem with major life change is that it creates a lot of things that we don’t know about and the not knowing is scary, this is what makes us anxious about change I think. Our brains also don’t like loss and change can mean the loss of a loved one, loss of a job, loss of our home or relationship, all very difficult to understand and take on board. We really don’t like things we don’t understand and change brings many things that we find it difficult to get a handle on.

Change is inevitable so how best to cope? Some very good advice is to look at change as a positive thing rather than a negative, allow ourselves to feel the stress but don’t stay with that feeling, don’t dwell. Don’t fight the change. Try to see the change as a lesson, an opportunity and remember that everything passes.

Finding a healthy way to deal with our feelings helps a lot. Exercise, physical activity, yoga and meditation can all help us to feel better in ourselves and help us see the change in a more positive frame of mind. Self reflection time allows us to take a step back and see the possibilities the change can offer, perhaps self growth, increased self awareness or being more able to work in line with our purpose on the planet.

Scary at first, changes in life can’t be avoided so let’s try to embrace them and find the positive. If we find that we are stuck in a difficult place and the changes are just too overwhelming then have a word with a homeopath. Homeopathy is very good when we become bogged down with emotion and can’t find a way forward. Don’t let change get you down.

Bye for now
