Show Notes:In this episode I'll take you behind the scenes in Kim Dunn's course, Essential Self Care for Psychologists.Kim is a psychologist who has a large network of psychologists and clearly knows her target audience and their needs.    It makes such a difference when you are going through a program that is written for exactly the people it is intended to reach and help, and that is probably the biggest takeaway of this course review – the more you understand the people you are trying to help the better you can help them.Firstly, I want to make it very clear that when I do a course review, I am not looking to rip the course apart or find great holes.  I'm looking at it to find those small niggly bits that might prevent your audience from doing the work you want them to do or that might take away from the experience.   Most courses I review have great content. Things Kim has done really well:Used activities that are helpful to her studentsUnderstood the needs of her studentsBroken down her content into reasonably sized modulesAsked questions that genuinely make people stop and thinkIn terms of user experience some of the things she can look at are:Small spelling and grammar mistakes (that everyone makes)The length of gaps and spaces in both written and video mediaThe ways that videos are embedded and the kind of information that is available on and around themConnect with Kim:CourseWebsite   Action Steps:What I hope you have taken away today is some of the insights into what I find when I go through a program.   I generally find that the content (physical words) is great – you know your stuff.  Helping you build a course isn't about you knowing your content though.  The focus needs to be on knowing your audience and then all the little things that impact user experience – the gaps, pauses and the little idiosyncrasies that might break their concentration.Connect with Sam Winch About Your Online Course:FacebookContent Into Courses Facebook GroupInstagram

Journaling can help you find and connect with your authentic self. Have you ever felt lost? Like me, have you felt that somewhere along the way you took a wrong turn, veered of the path, or just became bamboozled with what life threw at you? It can feel like a battle to create your own space in a world that is often driven by consumerism, material success and 'progress'. However, there is a growing movement of people who know that tapping into personal and universal energy can create a sense of oneness and wholeness that transcends the artificial. One way of reconnecting with your authentic self is through writing, or journaling. If you have never tried tapping into the thoughts and emotions inside you in this way, I encourage you to give it a go. However, many people find there is a slight problem with this. Maybe you have experienced putting aside the time, sitting down to write....and then ....your mind goes blank. You know that your mind isn't actually blank. In fact you have 10's of 1,000s of thoughts each day. What is probably stopping you is not getting it right. In this episode I touch on how to journal, and bust one of the most common misconception about journaling.

In this episode I explore expectations and confidence around Christmas and reducing Christmas Stress. What is on your 'should do' list and what is on your 'want to do' list? Do they overlap at all? And what to do about it. What happens when you step back and simply observe all the expectations and it feels to have them? Look at them again. Where have they come from? Are they necessary, important, do they enhance Christmas time? You can see the ‘shoulds’ and ‘have tos’ for what they really are; they aren’t rules by which you have to live by, they aren’t absolute truths, they are just thoughts your mind is holding on to. By seeing this you can you can choose to let go of expectations that have no meaning or satisfaction for you. And knowing this you can choose. Making your own choices You can choose to participate in activities leading up to Christmas that you value. That bring joy to your heart and that of your family. You can choose activities that focus on kindness, gratitude, togetherness. You don’t need to be religious to tap into the good will that exists at this time of the year, where most people are actually actively trying to make other people happy. There is a lot of freedom that comes with being an adult and having so many choices to make. We might feel the heavy weight of expectations, but when we lose that weight it is not just freeing, it also exposes us and makes it vulnerable. I think that is one reason why treading your own path at Christmas, in line with your values and not others expectations, is so difficult, but for you, it might be the path to your Christmas calm, connection and confidence. ----------------------------- Loneliness often stems from a belief that no-one truely cares or understands you.

Each year leading up to Christmas when we ask ourselves what we want for Christmas, I find this an inspiring time to actually look at what I have. We know that if you are looking to increase the happiness in your life that putting time and energy into experiences rather than things is the way to go. However, things have a way of accumulating. Whether you have bought them with good intentions or whether they have come to you as gifts or through other means. And before you know it even things you love can just become part of ‘stuff everywhere’! Curating your stuff can be a great way of reconnecting with what is important to you and creating an uplifting environment. Let’s start by looking at books. Growing up we had a set of World Book encyclopedias. I loved them. You could open up at any page and learn something new about the world. Looking at them gave me a sense of wonder and thirst for knowledge. I probably loved my fantasy books (Enid Blyton anyone?) where I went into worlds where anything and everything was possible. It’s the promise contained in books that I love. As I grew older my relationship with books became a bit more complicated. Books I had to read – school novels, reference books. Books I thought I should read – parenting books, self-help books. And instead of being always about pleasure books also became a mirror reminding me of things I didn’t understand, couldn’t learn or highlighted my inadequacies. Do you love all your books? Do you smile when you see them, refer to them regularly and rejoice in their wisdom? OR Are their books on your bookshelf that taunt you with reminders about your failures? Cookbooks full of recipes you haven’t tried. Self-help books with exercises you haven’t completed. Novels you haven’t read. Parenting books that seem to mock you. Reference books you don’t use (or are way out of date). Listen to find out what to do about them. You can also read the blog here. ____________________ How can I feel more connected?

Creativity is the act of creating something. Whether that's a poem, a painting or a story. Or a solution, a new way of being or a new perspective.

This week I've been exploring back to basic principles of self-care One of the things COVID-19 has done is strip us of our regular structure, and therefore our cues for eating and exercising. We are at home nearly all the time, we have food around us constantly, there is very little incidental exercise able to happen, which means everything we do must be done with full intent or awareness. And as we are living in a state of fairly constant stress and anxiety, actually doing the basics is harder than what it seems. So, what does back to basics mean? FOOD: First is back to basics food. Increasing whole foods like brown rice oats anything that grows on a tree or in the ground i.e. fruit and vegetables. Drinking water. MOVEMENT: Then it’s back to basics movement. Walking a couple of times a day, standing instead of sitting, stretching,. HABITS: Back to basics eating habits. This includes sitting down to eat, sitting at the table to eat, using crockery and cutlery, tuning in to hungry cues. Below are 11 principles to keep in mind in your back to basics journey. 1. Acceptance. My jeans won’t fit, my back aches, I’m not walking as much as I used to, I feel sluggish. 2. Accountability. Stating to yourself, or publicly what you are working on and would like to do. 3. Support - having someone taking the journey with you. 4. Cuing our behaviour. When I sit down in front of the tv – that is my cue to pick up my crotcheting (not sit and eat pistacchios) 5. Using the ‘When I do this, then I will do that’ strategy. Eg. When I drink this hot water, then I will have my coffee. 6. Doing things mindfully. Sitting at the table to eat. 7. Being prepared. Ending the day with a clean kitchen bench. 8. Mindset. Use simple words – Today I’m going to try to….. 9. Self-compassion. This is not a place for perfection or comparison this is a place of self compassion. We will be doing the best we can with what’s been going on. 10. Goal setting. Little baby goals. And goals that encourage you to do something rather than not do something. Today I’m going to drink one cup of hot water. I’m going to eat one vegetable. Start, not stop goals. 11. Boundaries. Put your little fences in place to keep the cows out. This is particularly important if you’re living without the people who are questioning what you’re doing. This back to basics is for you and you decide where you put your boundary fence. I am cooking one meal tonight and this is what I want to cook and eat. Or I’m not buying any more junk food come into the house. ____________________ How can I feel more connected?

Why Covid-19 is causing you anxiety, and what to do about it. Some initial research into the first month of COVID-19 found mental health difficulties were at least twice as prevalent as in non-pandemic circumstances. For some people the restrictions around COVID-19 are a blip in their lives, for others the impact is significant and ongoing. And, as to be expected, the people most impacted are the most vulnerable in society. The need for practical, positive, flexible self-care to manage this ongoing anxiety and stress is clear. In this podcast I share with you some positive and practical self-care tips from my Live YOUR best life: The RoadMap to Personal Wellbeing for Women who do too Much and the Positive and Practical Self-Care for Mental Health Professionals Programs, based on the Five Foundations of Self-Care. For further information on anything in this podcast email Kim at creatingconnectionsthatmatter@gmail.com And of course, if your level of stress and anxiety is significant please seek professional assistance. I am available for online consultations, there are a number of organisations providing free support, in particular Beyond Blue, otherwise check in with your GP as your first point of call.- _____________________ How can I feel more connected?

If you have a daughter and want to help strengthen your bond with her, reduce her sense of isolation and help protect her mental health, here are five ways that can help. Flexibility - of ways to communicate, when and where to communicate. Be open to situations that arise. Time - take the time to be there, to tell them you love them, to look them in the eye when they are coming and going. Acceptance - let go of your expectations and work with what is.

How many times a day do you hear this word come out of your mouth? I ‘should’ go to the gym, I ‘should’ got for a walk, I ‘should’ call my friend, I ‘should’ clean the house, I ‘should’ do the grocery shopping, I ‘should’ stay back at work and finish that report, I ‘cant’ go out I have too much to do, ‘I shouldn’t feel like this. The list goes on. So, what’s wrong with saying ‘should’. I’ll give you a hint. How do you feel when you say ‘should’? If you’re like most people it probably creates a heavy feeling. It’s a burden, a chore, another expectation, something else to add to you to do list. It can create guilt and shame. The more you use these rigid words the more disappointed, angry, depressed or guilty you are likely to feel. Listen to find out one easy way of tackling the 'shoulds'. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- In a world where loneliness and isolation are epidemic, how do you find your way back to connection?

Are you clear about your what is most important to you? What you hold important is generally referred to as your values. Values are like the compasses that guide your journey. They guide your decision making and the choices in your life. When you are disconnected from your values your life may feel like it lacks direction or meaning. I am here to help you with that reconnection. In this video I help you get started with working out what’s important by talking you through two different values identification activities. And I share my current top 5 values. Here is the link to the Values Cards download. If working on what's important to you and improving your personal wellbeing is part of your New Year's resolution - have a sneak peak at my new online program. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- In a world where loneliness and isolation are epidemic, how do you find your way back to connection?

It's easy to get caught up in the little details of our life and not see the whole picture. If you want a practical example of perspective, do a jigsaw puzzle, (or even a wasgij puzzle for an extra challenge). Notice what happens when you stop doing the puzzle and take a break - you will often find things are clearer when you go back to it. Or ever had someone come along and know straight way where a piece can go that you've been trying to fit somewhere for ages? That's the difference perspective can make! Using perspective is part of cognitive self-care, and like connectedness, cognitive self-care is one of the key pillars to your wellbeing. Perspective allows you to see what is going on in your life with clarity - what are you really thinking and feeling? What truly matters? How can you be seen, heard and valued? Connection is a key part of your self-care road map; of your own personal wellbeing plan. In this series we focus on Connection, as well as other self-care measures - Cognitive self-care, Emotional self-care, Physical self-care, and Meaning.

If you have adult children you know finding time to connect with them can be tricky - but it is so important you do. The recent Young Australian Loneliness Survey showed that a significant proportion of young Victorians reported problematic levels of loneliness. This included one in six adolescents (aged 12–17) and more than one in three young adults (aged 18–25). -------------------------------------------------------------------------- In a world where loneliness and isolation are epidemic, how do you find your way back to connection?

Self-care is looking after your mental and physical health. How can you make the most of the time you set aside for self-care? Recently I attended a clay workshop - which ticked not just the connection box, but other self-care boxes. The following are some of the boxes it ticked. Connection ticks 1. I met new people - connecting with peers 2. I met I knew from online and had never met before - strengthening online connections 3. I worked with clay - connecting with nature. 4. strengthened my connection with my profession - as it was a professional workshop Cognitive mental health ticks 1. I learnt something new 2. I stepped out of my comfort zone in terms of driving to a different location and cohosting a new workshop Meaning mental health tick 1. Being involved in an activity that helped bring people together Physical mental health tick 1.

When you go by yourself to function/networking tips you can caught up in overthinking what to say or do. Take the pressure of yourself with these three quick tips 1. be aware of your fidget points and think about how you can reduce them. 2. dress for comfort (and I don't mean trackie pants!) 3. take time to appreciate the event, the organisers, the effort - in other words, bask in some gratitude.

As you approach the end of the year and evaluate what you have achieved and where your life is at, take the time to reflect on your connections, and in particular your understanding of self.
