With September approaching, it can be a good time to reflect on your own needs and perhaps consider some ways to nurture yourself by practicing self-care and considering your wellbeing.
Summertime can be an exceptionally busy period as naturally we pack in so much activity, juggle childcare and balance work life and home life. Often working life can be overwhelming as we navigate holidays, childcare, covering extra shifts in work, sending our own needs to the backroom.
As a therapist I find end of August to be a common time for people to struggle with burn out or emotional overwhelm and by September we are craving routine and structure.
