Be careful of the narratives of the mind and the reactivity it causes

04/09/2026

Assuming can make an ass out of ourselves. When we make assumptions of others and what we think they think of us, we create a barrier that walls out connection.

Our mind is skilled at forming narratives about others and we must learn to challenge these narratives as they can cause us great suffering and the breakdown of relationships.

If you'd like some supprt with this, please reach out. I work both in person and online.

The thoughts you attach to first thing in the morning set the tone for the day. Notice the thought and if it's based on lack, choose again..

Prevention is always preffered however as humans we often learn through trial and error. Often burnout sneaks up on us!

Morning movement sets up my day. It mentally, physically ane emotionally balances me for the day ahead.

Take whatever time you have. Micro dose if you are short on time.

Anger is not a "bad" emotion but our relationship with it can cause destruction and damage relationships not just with others but especially with ourselves.

When we get to know what is beneath anger we often discover deeper hurts, loss, fears, disappointments and unprocessed sadness.

If we can work to understand why our anger is present, we can change the behaviours and patterns it has driven.

If this is something you'd like support with, please reach out. If anger is left unattended to, it can shift into rage, fury, aggression and sadly violence.

It may be hard for those who know me now to imagine, but I was quite the firecracker in my twenties, especially in relationships.

I was 24 when I got married and my husband was 23. We loved each other deeply, but we still had so much to learn about communication, emotional regulation and conflict resolution.

Many of our arguments followed a familiar script.

We would become triggered, voices would rise, one of us would storm off, and the other would withdraw or shut down.

Eventually we'd reconnect, only to find ourselves back in exactly the same cycle weeks later.

I remember thinking, "There has to be another way."
What ultimately became my vehicle for change was curiosity.

Curiosity about myself.

Curiosity about human behaviour.

Curiosity about why intelligent, well-meaning people could find themselves repeating the same painful patterns over and over again.

And slowly, I began to notice something about myself.

I wasn't always seeing my husband for who he actually was.

Often, I was seeing him through the lens of my past experiences.

Certain situations would activate old emotional wounds, and before I knew it, I was reacting from a much younger version of myself.

I was responding from childhood conditioning rather than present-day reality.

And my reactions could then activate my husband's own protective patterns.

Suddenly we weren't simply two adults having a disagreement.

We were each bringing years of unconscious programming into the conversation.

The fascinating thing about these patterns is that they often operate beneath our conscious awareness.

This is where I believe self-reflection can be so powerful.

When we start becoming curious about our own reactions, rather than only focusing on what the other person is doing, we create space to ask:

Why did that affect me so strongly?

Is this about what is happening right now, or is something older being activated?

What am I believing in this moment?

What protective response am I moving into?

And perhaps most importantly...

What would it look like to respond from who I am today, rather than who I had to be in the past?

Balanced living looks different for each and every person and also changes for us individually depending on the seasons of life we are navigating.

One of the key things that has helped me is being able to really tune into my body and listen to what it needs. For some, they thrive off being busier and having snippets of down time, others need more solitude and decompression. There's one way and it's important we let go of the "should" and "have to" and decide to live our own life based on what feels good for us.

When clients come to see me for kinesiology we call it a "balance". That's because we are working through muscle testing to find out what your body needs to come back into it's own state of balance.

If you really tune into your body, what is it that you need more or less of?

"Hurry up." "Stop that." "Get in the car."

If you've got a reactive child who cannot process demands, you already know what happens next. The eye roll. The shutdown. The 0-100 energy that comes out of nowhere.

Here's what I see often in my clinic, both as a counsellor and a kinesiologist: reactive kids aren't being defiant for the sake of it. A demand lands in their nervous system as a threat, and a threatened nervous system doesn't negotiate, it defends. So you're not actually arguing with your kid. You're arguing with their fight-or-flight response.

The fix isn't permissiveness. It's language.

Swap the demand for an invitation, and you give their nervous system something it can actually work with, a sense of agency instead of a wall to push against.

"Put your shoes on" becomes "do you want to put on these shoes or those?" → "Stop that" becomes "Do you want to finish that here or take it outside?".
"Get in the car" becomes "Front seat or back seat today?"

Same outcome. Completely different nervous system response. You're still holding the boundary, the shoes are still going on, but you've handed them a choice instead of what they feel is a forced demand.

Reactive kids aren't looking for control over everything. They're looking for control over something. And we can often forget they are too young to yet be able to self-regulate and need our assistance to do so.

Changing language takes time and patience and if you're finding this challenging as a parent, please don't wait until things hit a crisis point to reach out for support.
