Happy New Year from Eileen at Inner Healing Counselling
It’s that time again where we reflect on the past year and plan for the New Year. Resolutions are made and broken, often within the first hour!! 2016 has been a very busy year for me. I have been working really hard in my practice and am learning so much in the process. I am now a registered business owner which is something I am really excited about. I have launched my online counselling service, learnt how to market my practice and have to say I am enjoying the new skills I am developing. I have become pretty apt at updating my website and am constantly learning which is great. I love being challenged and my practice is definitely keeping me on my toes.
Challenging Times.
Last year in my new year’s blog I wrote about my Type B personality with my ‘I’ll start next week’ mind-set. As I tend to procrastinate about things I really had to look at why I put things off, what was stopping me or holding me back? What came up for me big time was fear and anxiety. When I am doing something different or stepping outside my comfort zone I feel really uncomfortable. I become very anxious and my fight or flight sense kicks in. It’s at this point I take flight and avoided doing what needs to be done. But this old behaviour doesn’t serve me anymore, not if I want to succeed in my practice and certainly not if I want to support people. I have decided that I have to take a leap of faith and step outside my comfort zone (without freaking myself out!!) While this has been challenging for me I am getting there bit by bit.
