Wisdom Heart

RESTORING YOUR SELF-ESTEEM

“Love is patient. Love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonour others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.

Love does not delight in evil but rejoices in the truth, It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always preserves. Love never fails.”

Self-esteem is an intimately personal experience. It resides in the core of our being. It is what we think and feel about ourselves, not what someone else thinks or feels.

We are born with self-esteem and then experiences occur in our formative years that can create the belief of being unworthy of love or inadequate and this may follow us for the rest of our life.

After many years of healing with my own experience, my passion is to now reach out and offer another way that is kind, self-loving, and effective, though you must do the work, for your healing journey is your own.

Wisdom Heart facilitates a four-week, heart-based course entitled ‘Restoring Joy’  which combines gentle relaxation techniques with simple empowering steps that restore your self-esteem and self-love one step at a time.

Bringing gentle kindness and love to the parts of us that have been so judged is the most natural way to restore self-esteem.

Loving acceptance is the way to the healing of the past and of our life.         Always love!

“Conformity is one of the most fundamental dishonesties of all. When we reject our special-ness, water down our God-given individuality and uniqueness, we begin to lose our freedom. The conformist is in no way a free man. He has to follow the herd.”

In today’s society in the west

• 9 out of 10 people will never tell anyone their end of life choices
• 45% will die without a will
• 70% of people express a wish to die at home, though only 14% get to do so.

After a generation or so of handing over the end of life process to strangers, many are now resuming open dialogue around the topic of death and dying once again. Often with the intention to establish clear communication with their family or community in regard to their wishes as their life draws to a close.

Death is the counterpart to birth for as surely as we are born so will we all eventually die for this is a natural process and through appropriate education and support much unnecessary fear can be allayed.
