✨Sunday Intention Setting✨

@Oaktree yes it's not easy to lose someone you trust and have worked with for a long time. It might depend on the quality of the handover... a good and thorough handover might go a long way towards helping the relationship off to a good start with good will on both sides. Hopefully it will work out for you.

My psychiatrist is semi retired so I'm not sure how much longer I'll have with him.

@Dimity

The clinic have not yet recruited a permanent replacement psychiatrist, so I will be seeing a locum at first. I am not sure how it will go. I am trying not to have a bad attitude about it.

I don't think feeling apprehensive counts as a bad attitude @Oaktree . It's perfectly understandable. Is there continuity in other ways with the rest of your team?

@Dimity

Yes the rest of my team remains unchanged, so that is good.

I really don't like change too much but change is constant, so I had better get used to it, I guess.

I hope that your psychiatrist doesn't retire too soon.

Hello beautiful people!

I hope it's been slightly sunnier where you are today. 🌞

It's that time of week again where I pop by and check in on your wonderful intention-setting goals. ✨

We're still working with the theme of Slowing Down (yes, I have decided to work with monthly themes to support integration - happy to take suggestions for the end of this month! 🤩).

I would love to hear what's worked, what hasn't, and why. You've all shared some fabulous insights and progress, so I am excited to read what you have to share.

PS: Tagging some new people in too! Please let me know if you'd prefer not to be tagged next time. 💛

I haven’t really managed to slow down much @AuntGlow. I keep pushing myself. I did allow myself a nothing day one day. But it’s just because I was so exhausted from pushing.

@AuntGlow I've been working on taking a moment for myself after getting home from work. Generally this involves sitting by the fire and having a hot drink in the quiet space of my own home.

I haven't achieved this as an every day thing, but I have enjoyed it on the days where I've done it. I also enjoyed a slower start to the morning yesterday...a bit of a sleep in, coffee in bed, no rush, no need to be anywhere.

I have three appointments after work this week, so I have to figure out a way to incorporate this into my days.

@AuntGlow

Well I did nothing for last weekend and Monday through to Wednesday. Then it was back to Tafe Thursday and Friday. I paid for it this weekend. I had to do two assignments yesterday and did most of another one today. I still have things to do for tafe on this Thursday so there is no end in sight for now. Also my support worker and psychologist are back on deck this week so Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday will also go back to being busy.

Is there a way to incorporate breathing spaces into the days of pushing through @Captain24 ?

You sound busy @Oaktree .

I'm highly stressed at present but not that busy. I need to learn to switch off and chill.

Happy Sunday! 🥰

Doing a little check-in with everyone to see how slowing down is feeling.

I'm going to move on to a new theme next week and would love your suggestions - what would you like to explore? ✨🧚
