@tu_clothing Thank you

[Cara Hooper @CoachCara]

Really @tu_clothing? How can you justify this much packaging for 3 bras collected from store? Senseless waste. I will be returning packaging and will not be ordering again. #Sainsburys #plasticpollution

[Cara Hooper @CoachCara]

@tu_clothing You agree and have pledged, but your organisation's actions do not reflect that.

[Cara Hooper @CoachCara]

@ladyhaja I am sending all my best healing wishes and love to you Hannah. That's sounds like torture. I think your openness is a superpower. I am an expert listener if you want a stranger to offload to for free. X

Try choosing #curiousity over #judgement 🔍
When making changes we may de-motivate ourselves with negative judgement, fuelling the feelings of failure. Instead we can try exploitative language: 'how can this help my learning?'

📖 In one of today's coaching sessions, the executive I was working with described feeling torn between dedicating time to learning & wanting to escape into a novel.
So, we listed the benefits of reading. What do YOU get from reading stories?

[Cara Hooper @CoachCara]

In order to move on from feeling resentful, we can use the 3 As -
* Acknowledge the feeling
* Assess our levels of influence and take steps
* Accept what we cannot control. This might require offloading (talking, writing), positive self talk & self compassion.

Ooh it's soooo unfair!!! Feeling bitter about unfairness or injustice? It's worth remembering the wise words of Carrie Fisher: “Resentment is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die."

Whatever the #change, I encourage my clients to practise FAR - Forgive those slip-ups; Acknowledge your successes; Reward yourself.

@alr365 thanks for the RT Anita x

[Cara Hooper @CoachCara]

Expecting too much of ourselves creates pressure, stress & despondency when we don't meet those goals.
BIG #change comes from SMALL steps.

[Cara Hooper @CoachCara]

We can get stuck in #anxiety. Labelling the thought, checking its helpfulness and probability, before distracting ourselves will help.

[Cara Hooper @CoachCara]

Whether it's the positives or the negatives... look for them and you will find them. #choose

[Cara Hooper @CoachCara]

Taking time to pause and remind ourselves what is good in our life helps to lift us when we feel down. #gratitude

[Cara Hooper @CoachCara]

Accepting that we are all imperfect, developing beings takes the pressure off and allows us to make those all important mistakes.
