I recently attended a workshop on siblings and attachment. It demonstrates how our sibling relationships or lack of them, impact our development as individuals. By looking at the role we have taken in the sibling group, we will understand how it has influenced the bonds we form in our adults' life.
If you are interested in this topis, I'd like to share this article :

Our sibling relationships shape our identities, influence our behavior, and even affect our mental and physical health.

I have often found myself angry at the world and the society, leaving me feeling powerless. I believe I am not the only one left with this bitter taste, especially when you listen to the news.
This article provides you with some practical tips. Along with acknowledging the anger, I realise accepting my limitations in some situations may be a first step to freeing myself. I may ask myself what can I do, at my level? Some solutions may emerge. My motto is 'think globally, act locally'.

Here we explore ways to cope with pent-up anger over worldwide events

An interesting article about 'the importance of being yourself' which shares practical tips on how to start...In my experience it is a journey which requires courage on a daily basis but worth to try!

As Oscar Wilde said ‘Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.’

It can be difficult to be yourself; we fear we won't be accepted for who we are. Emma Azzopardi offers ways you can embrace authenticity

I am sharing this article as it is raising an important question on how to best deal with our insecurities (or weaknesses). In my experience it is a journey towards acceptance about ourselves first and I know that it can be challenging. As the author wrote it is about 'how I am rather than how I'd like to be'. I wonder what is your experience?🤓

We're often told that we should strive to be 'better', to improve ourselves. What if we learned to embrace our insecurities, asks therapist David Darvasi

This article highlights the benefits that nature has on us (both mentally and physically). I am sure that you have experienced it during the pandemic and maybe still now. Reconnecting with nature is reconnecting with our true Self. It clarifies our mind and often opens to new perspectives...I encourage you to make it happens as much as you can...

The benefits go beyond stress relief.
