"I've learned that wherever perfectionism is driving us, shame is riding shotgun." Quote above from my favourite author, Brene Brown and poster below by an ELSA student. 💛 #EwellCastleFamily

One of the greatest things you can teach your children (and yourself) is that our worry-fuelled, negative thoughts are rarely reality. The "What ifs?" serve little purpose, so challenge and reframe them, daily. 🤔 #EwellCastleFamily

According to the media, today is #BlueMonday. What nonsense! Please don't feel down just because you are told to be. In fact, don't be blue at all... not unless you are this super cool campervan! 💙 #EwellCastleFamily

How lovely is this, from @tinybuddha. I see a lot of children suffering from anxiety, low-self esteem, and crippling perfectionism. We need to be more realistic role models in today's pressure cooker world. 🤯 #EwellCastleFamily

Open heart, open mind and an open door. These are the essential qualities to being a great parent, friend and ELSA. Behaviour is still communication. 👁 #EwellCastleFamily

One of the most incredible things I think you can learn, is that your thoughts are just what you tell yourself. They are mostly untrue. Teaching my ELSA students this and challenging them to reframe their thoughts is a real lightbulb moment.💡 #EwellCastleFamily

In ELSA sessions we talk about everyone having their very own "Frame of Reference". Where they were born, their family dynamics, their interests, their dreams. Every single human being will have unique stories, many left untold. 🙏 #EwellCastleFamily

“REMEMBER WHY WE REMEMBER” Charlie Wilson, brother of @matywils, wrote this amazing poem for Remembrance Day. They’ve put this narrative video together in honour of our fallen heroes. #LestWeForget

Feelings come and go, like the tides of the ocean. Learn to surf! Building resilience in yourself and your children will be one of the greatest gifts you can give them. 🌊 #EwellCastleFamily

Admitting to yourself that you're struggling does not mean you're weak. It's a massive step in the right direction. Life can be hard. We will all struggle from time to time - and that's okay.
