Jeanne Sutton, LMFT: Psychotherapy & Coaching

We can take good care of ourselves and reduce our anxiety while we wait. Here are some good ideas .

Most people are lost in thoughts all day, every day. This can lead to tremendous anxiety, this is especially true as the world is in flux around us. The good news is that coming home to our senses is an opportunity to recognize the waking dream of our thoughts and projections. Part of the path is remembering to come home to the present and your senses as often as you can remember. One of my specialities is treating anxiety and using mindfulness.

We don’t know or understand something until we do. There are so many factors at play supporting whatever circumstance is arising that we might call it a moment of ‘grace’ when we do learn something new or feel ready or motivated to change a situation. But that moment can pass, especially if we’re busy being hard on ourselves. So instead of beating ourselves up for not understanding, remembering or being more capable sooner, ask yourself instead: *How can I learn from my curre...nt process? (or from that painful event?) *What have I learned from this? *How can I help myself remember this insight? *What am I doing now that supports what I’ve learned (or what am I doing that doesn’t?) *What first steps can I take to make progress that uses what I’ve learned? Self-reflection and therapy can help answer these questions and help you gain traction with growth and with your life goals.

Sometimes the hard road of change or challenge finds us and sometimes we need to choose it for ourselves. I love this excerpt from Glennon Doyle’s book, Untamed: The building of the true and beautiful means the destruction of the good enough. Rebirth means death. Once a truer, more beautiful vision is born inside us, life is in the direction of that vision. Holding on to what is no longer true enough is not safe; it’s the riskiest move because it is the certain death of eve...rything that was meant to be. We are alive only to the degree to which we are willing to be annihilated. Our next life will always cost us this one. If we are truly alive, we are constantly losing who we just were, what we just built, what we just believed, what we just knew to be true. She invites us in her book to reflect on What’s is the truest, most beautiful story of your life that you can imagine? Therapy can helps us connect with our way through adversity, find our authentic voice and direction, and head off in that direction. I’m offering support via video and phone (during the pandemic).
