Seems the kids are getting divorced – and it’s all their fault!

by

When parents divorce, as has seemingly become ‘the norm’ in today’s society, we all know our children will feel the fallout too. As I write this article, it is from a number of angles; as a former child of parents who divorced, as a parent who divorced, and as a therapist helping members of families whose domestic unit has been, or is, ‘deconstructing’.

8 Steps to Being Mindful

Starting today, you don’t have to muddle through life anymore – not knowing where to turn.

Imagine… having the courage to speak up, recognising unhealthy relationships, feeling calmer, relaxed and in control, and being more able to make positive and mindful decisions.

Imagine… being more focused, energised and living a more accepting life, no more sleepless nights worrying yourself into the ground, and no more toughing-it-out alone and putting on a brave face.

With our support, you can learn how to manage whatever is now troubling you, discover new choices and move forward in life.
