Life is full of dishwasher moments.

That's when we practise mindfulness and gratefulness, appreciating the dishwasher, power, water, food, and especially the great time we have making those dishes dirty in the first place 💕

Sometimes unloading the dishwasher is the mindful moment you need plus a bonus facial if you open the door at the right moment

Sometimes unloading the dishwasher IS the highlight

Teaching about Narrative Therapy at the University of the Sunshine Coast, yesterday.

Not a bad summary of NT, if I say so myself.

If you can decipher my hieroglyphics 😬

From: problem on person influence to: person on problem influence. Write a new story.

A tough lesson to learn, sometimes, but liberating at the same time.

Sure, "stuff" happens without us necessarily choosing that to happen. But after the stuff has happened, we still have choices to make.

An accurate, but slightly inconvenient truth. I appreciate the reminder.

Was discussing this with my students at Uni yesterday: clients' idea that "if only [blah blah], then I'll be happy".

It's the greatest fallacy in all the universe, I think.

'Here' is where it all happens. 'There' is a recipe for misery...

I used to say: "good things are just around the corner!" That sounds optimistic, but guess where the good things went when I came around the corner?

No more.
