Mental health post: things are interesting and challenging at the moment, mental health wise. I’m so, so happy with my family, our new little home we’re moving into soon, my work. At the same time it seems as though some of the feelings that I had during and after Eira’s accident are like- stuck. It is bizarre, I made a commitment to think and act in a positive and thankful mindset which is pretty easy when I am so very lucky with what I have in my life. But it is like these waves of- I don’t know what, like a stuck memory- crash over me in the most random moments and it is so overwhelming. I barely read the news but a couple of stories that came to my attention this week have really affected me as they are very similar to Eira’s, and both have had tragic endings, unlike Eira’s absolutely miraculous recovery. I have tried to be very interested and mindful when I have these moments of what’s going on; in the past I’d have wanted it “fixed”, NOW, but I have a different mindsets now. Something I’ve found really helpful is the realisation that unhappiness often comes from simply not being present. I’m not trapped in an earthquake zone with a poorly child now. And my brain can make up all kinds of untruths but the fact is I only need to look around me to feel very peaceful. My three little ones, leading a life of freedom and joy and exploration, in a very privileged country- it’s amazing. Comparison to others is the other thing that steals the present from us- but recently I’ve been letting my mind go through the process instead of just telling myself to stop it. I’ve asked myself, “ok, so would you swap?” The answer has always been no. So I’ve got this interesting tug between my mind that I can consciously control right now, and whatever is underneath coming out in waves. And I’m actually ok with it, it’s a process. It’s super easy to do some quick hair and makeup and take happy polished snaps; it’s harder to push through that and be real on here, but so worth it. We aren’t supposed to be on one level of feeling all the time, we’re fluid and changing and that is a very good thing. Anyway, that’s my little ramble for today. I hope you have a wonderful week
When you listen to #туманныйальбион #foggyalbion you can imagine misty weather , rain and clouds but in my mind the UK is associated with blossoming magnolia. By the way, this year it is much richer. #uk #britain #england #england #london #londonlife #travel #study #studymotivation #purple #purley #magnolia #blossom #trees
It’s a BIG DAY! We’re moving house! P and I are getting the keys in a minute and we’re so excited- it’s the first time we’ve had a home together with a garden. It’s a cute 3 bed house on an ex council estate, 5 minutes from family and friends and our church community☺️Will put some pics on our story when we get there! Any tips for organising and sorting through stuff during a move?! I’m thinking kids’ toys and books our first? ♀️
