The Ripple Effect

Don’t you love it when people give you tips or helpful suggestions? I do, I love it when someone tells me something that works. Something that helps with cooking, gardening, lifestyle, wellbeing or pretty much anything that can make my life easier with that nugget of knowledge.  

I love my clients understanding what a difference just slowing and lengthening their breath makes. 

I love that moment when a client realises that just changing the chair they sit on or the table they sit at can change how their back feels.

I love it when my client changes the lead or harness that their dog wears and they find that they no longer get the shoulder ache or wrist pain.

I love it when clients say they now stretch in the shower after work and don’t get the habitual spasms in their hamstrings anymore. 

I love it when my friends, family and clients start to realise the importance of putting themselves first. They start to understand if they focus on their own happiness first they can do so much more for others, but if they put themselves after everyone else they will quickly run out of steam or love. 

I love it when people start to realise those little ‘tips’ really do help, really do make a difference or when I hear that something little has started to change a cycle of behaviour or discomfort. When people start to notice the negative words they say to themselves daily, hourly or even minute by minute and in that noticing can do something about it. 

I love it when people treat themselves the way they would their best friend. 

If you are reading this try it. Try thinking about how you can make yourself smile, how you can be kind to yourself, how you can help yourself in any given moment. If you feel good yourself the ripple effect is phenomenal. Have a go!
