5 MIN TAPPING TO NURTURE YOUR INNER CHILD

Your childhood forms the foundation of your mental health because it’s when your brain and nervous system are still very much developing. Everything that happens to you in this time forms an internal blueprint for who you believe you are and how you see the world around you. It’s the time when your nervous system learns how to adapt to stress and when your strongest limiting beliefs are formed.

This is why your ‘inner child’ is so important. When we have big reactions to things it’s often our wounded inner child that has been triggered and it’s happening without us even realising.

Your “inner child” is a part of your subconsious that has been picking up messages way before it was able to fully process what was going on (mentally and emotionally). It holds emotions, memories and beliefs from the past as well as hopes and dreams for the future.

We all have an inner child inside of us, that for whatever reason, maybe didn’t have their needs met. It’s such an important part of who you are and doesn't take long to tune in to them and make them feel loved.

Try this short tapping process now to nurture your inner child and see how much calmer you feel.

For more support please get in touch kim@happyheads.me or check out the Happy Heads Nurture Your Inner Child Programme xx

PROCESSING TRAUMA - NOW LIVE

When thinking about whether something was traumatising to you, it's essential to remember that your response and emotions are completely valid. One thing may be traumatising to one person but not another. It's completely subjective and your early childhood experiences and attachment play a key role in how you cope with trauma in adulthood. It's also important to never minimise your past and never compare it to someone else.

When you say to yourself, 'i'm ok, they have it way worse than me' - you completely invalidate your own experience and don't allow your nervous system the opportunity to process it.

This months Happy Heads Reset is called 'Processing Trauma' and will help you do exactly that. You'll get:

- Insight into trauma and how it effects the brain and nervous system.
- Tapping video to follow that will help you process your trauma.
- Top Tips on how to calm your nervous system anytime you go into the fight / flight / freeze response.
- Guided meditation to bring your brain back into balance and integrate your nervous system.

Follow the link HERE to sign up to the Happy Heads Monthly Reset, It's completely free!
.
If you would like to work 1:1 with me to process your trauma please get in touch kim@happyheads.me I would love to hear from you xx

HAPPY HEADS BURNOUT PROGRAMME

HAPPY HEADS BURNOUT PROGRAMME 💫
Burnout is a very real and very scary thing to experience. I had it myself over 6 years now and in the space of 6 months in the toxic work environment I was in, I completely lost my mental health to the point I had severe anxiety which lead into depression. Overcoming burnout and learning how to nurture my mental health and wellbeing was one of the main reasons I retrained as a Tapping Practitioner, Meditation Teacher and started Happy Heads.
.
As it's a subject so close to my heart and one that I deeply understand, I am very excited to announce the Happy Heads Burnout Programme. It's been designed specifically to help you:

- Overcome burnout, bringing calm and peace to your mind
- Improve your mental and physical wellbeing
- Release negative energy from your nervous system that built up in the workplace
- Rebuild your confidence and self belief
- Bring your nervous system back into balance (after being under constant stress)
- Reduce anxiety and stress in both body and mind
- Bring you back to yourself once again!
- Improve your sleep & Focus

Each private session includes breathing techniques, guided meditation, and a full round of Emotional Freedom Technique (tapping). EFT is a powerful tool at helping you release negative tension held in both your body and mind and help you overcome any anxious, negative thoughts that you might be having.

There are two programme options to choose from that slightly vary in length:

• 3 x 1-1 sessions (1.5hr each)

I always provide a full support document after each session and a meditation recording for you to use. The sessions are 1hr 30 mins and will be over Zoom (or in person if you can come to Dalston).

HOW WE CAN HELP OUR KIDS POST PANDEMIC

I wrote an article for the brillaint Parentfolk about how we can support children and teens mental health and wellbeing post pandemic. You can check out the full article HERE on page 48-49.

SUICIDE PREVENTION 🖤

This is what depression looks like. This is a picture of my lovely dad, looking very happy, not too long before he killed himself. That's the problem with depression you can't always tell from the outside when people are suffering and people can wear their 'i'm ok' masks very well.
.
Anyone that takes their own life is ultimately struggling deeply with their mental health and most likely very depressed. Of course the route courses for each individual are completely different but this is why people reach a point where they find life too unbearable to live.
.
I WISH my dad had felt that it was ok to talk and realised that you CAN transform your mental health but you need to start looking after your brain and process the things that you're struggling with. Some people say that suicide is selfish and quite honestly trying to tell a 7 year old who felt abandoned by her father that it's not selfish would have been a very difficult task.
.
It was only when I lost my own mental health to burnout that I truly realised what it felt like to be depressed and realised that it's so much more complex. In that moment my dad felt like he couldn't go on any more, it wasn't selfish and I was able to forgive him.
.
So if you're struggling right now please remember that you 100% can improve your mental health, it just takes some loving care and there are people available right now to help you on your journey. Contact samaritans on: 116 113
.
If you're worried about someone then NOW is the time to reach out and check in. It's easy to isolate yourself when you're struggling so be the person that they need today. My dad is a driving force behind why I teach - no one should ever feel like life is no longer worth living.

BEAT BURNOUT

Burnout is a state of emotional, physical, and mental exhaustion caused by excessive and prolonged stress. It occurs when you feel overwhelmed, emotionally drained, and unable to meet constant demands. Add a global pandemic to people feeling like they have to be working 24/7 it’s no surprise that so many people are struggling right now.

Watch this video to see a simple breathing and tapping technique to engage your parasympathetic nervous system (rest and relaxation) the opposite of fight and flight, which is what we go into when we're stresses and anxious.

For more support in the workplace or a private session please get in touch kim@happyheads.me xx

REDUCE ANXIETY QUICKLY

78% of you are feeling anxious about life after lockdown and it’s not surprising after the challenging year we’ve all had. One common and very frustrating anxiety trigger is a fear of the unknown, which right now so many people are experiencing.
.
When you’re feeling anxious it’s because your body has started to go into fight and flight mode with your amygdala (brains fear response) hijacking your brain. Watch this video to see a simple way to bring your nervous system back into balance AND directly target the worries you have about the easing of restrictions.

TEACHING CHILDREN MEDITATION

There is nothing normal about the world we live in right now so it’s no surprise that lots of children and parents are feeling anxious, stressed and overwhelmed. Happy Heads teaches people how to stop, pause and breathe - empowering you with simple tools and techniques that reduce anxiety, build confidence and help to release worries.

The 30 minute workshop below includes breathing techniques, guided meditation and Emotional Freedom Technique (also know as Tapping). EFT is a powerful way to help release tension held in both body and mind and overcome any negative thoughts that children or parents may be having right now…

SELF COMPASSION 💫

You may not necessarily be where you want to be but that doesn’t mean you can’t celebrate where you are right now. The problem with always looking forward to somewhere else is that you fail to appreciate the present moment - which is really all we ever have. Never put labels on where you are in life because all your focus ends up on that final ‘point’ but life is a continuous process. Practicing self compassion is vital for a good functioning mental health. If you fail to be kind to yourself you’ll miss all the small achievements, which are just as important as the bigger ones.
.
To practice Self Compassion every day, simply write down three things that you love about yourself or that you're grateful for. Even if it's the same each day, focus your mind on your POSITIVE qualities and achievements. Physically writing them down helps to train the mind, decreasing negative thinking and strengthening your neurological pathways. .

Life is hard and we’ve all had obstacles that we needed to navigate so be proud that you’ve come this far - believe in yourself and believe in your abilities .
.
