One thing working with children has taught me…

They don't need us to fix every difficult feeling. They don't need to be told to “calm down” when they're overwhelmed. And they definitely don't need to feel like there's something wrong with them because they're struggling.

Sometimes they just need someone to help them slow down. To listen. To understand. To give them space to be exactly who they are. And then, alongside that, give them some simple tools to help them understand what they're feeling and what they can do when those big feelings arrive.

I've spent years working with children, and it's one of the reasons I'm so passionate about the well-being work I now do. Whether it's through Mindful Kids Club, Reiki or the wider well-being work I offer, I want ALL children to know...

Your feelings are okay.
You are allowed to be yourself.
You don't have to have everything figured out.
And you are MORE than enough.

And perhaps that's something we could remind ourselves of as adults too... Because we're not so different really. Sometimes we don't need fixing either. Sometimes we just need to feel safe, understood and supported.

What do you think children need more of today? I'd love to hear your thoughts below. 👇

This is the kind of feedback that stays with you.

When you work with children, you don't always get to see the impact straight away. Sometimes it's a little more confidence. Sometimes it's a child feeling comfortable enough to join in. Sometimes it's simply knowing they've had an hour where they could switch off, have fun and just be themselves. And sometimes, you get a message from a parent that reminds you exactly why you do it.

A parent recently told me that after Mindful Kids Club, it was the first time in a long time that her child had come out of school without telling her all the things he had been worrying about.

Honestly it meant so much to me.

I'm not here to teach children that they shouldn't worry or that difficult emotions can be avoided. Quite the opposite. I want to give them practical tools and a safe space to explore their emotions, build confidence, understand themselves a little better and discover ways to support their own well-being.

And yes… we have lots of fun along the way too. Because well-being shouldn't feel like another lesson. It should feel accessible, creative and something children actually want to be part of.

I'm so grateful to the parents who trust me with their children and take the time to share their experiences.

This is why Mindful Kids Club exists.

If you'd like to find out more about upcoming sessions at The Story Sanctuary, just send me a message. Please note, that due to demand there is now a waiting list for spaces at Greenvale and Forestdale Primary Schools.

Soul Full Sunday

Before another week begins, take a moment to check in with yourself.

No... Not your diary. Not your to-do list. Not what everyone else needs from you.. Just you.

How are you, really? Are you feeling energised? A little lost? Excited? Overwhelmed? Hopeful? Tired? Maybe a bit of everything? By the way there isn't a right answer. And you don't need to change how you're feeling just because you think you should be feeling differently. Just notice the feelings.

We spend so much time getting through the week that we forget to actually check in with the person living it...us!

So this Sunday, ask yourself, what feels good right now? What feels heavy? What do I need more of this week?

No fixing.
No judging.
Just a little honesty.
And perhaps that's enough for today.

Take care of yourself this week lovely.

Louise 💜✨

Even elite athlete is getting her Reiki on! We are huge athletics fans in our house, so to hear such an inspirational woman drop in that she's had Reiki is just 🥰.

As women, I think we're surprisingly good at overriding ourselves.

Tired?
Keep going.

Stressed?
I'll deal with it later.

Need a break?
I've got too much to do.

Need help?
Someone else probably needs it more.

Want some time for yourself?
Maybe next week.

And eventually, ignoring what we need can become so normal that we don't even realise we're doing it. Until something forces us to stop, for me that was a diagnosis of inflammatory arthritis.

But what if you didn't wait for that point? What if you started treating your needs as an essential part of your day, rather than an inconvenience?

Your tiredness is telling you something. Your irritability is telling you something. That feeling of being disconnected from yourself might also be telling you something.

You don't necessarily need to fix everything immediately, but perhaps start by tuning into yourself a little more. Because looking after yourself isn't selfish. It's noticing that you're an important person in this life too. And your needs matter too.

“I don't have time for Reiki.”

I get it.You're busy. There's work. Family. Appointments. Messages. Housework. Other people's needs. That never-ending mental list running around in your head. And when life is busy, taking an hour for yourself can feel impossible.

But here's the uncomfortable question…
When do you actually get to stop?

I'm not going to tell you Reiki will magically make your life less busy. It won't. But it can give you something that can be surprisingly difficult to find when you're constantly “on”…

An hour where nothing is required of you.

You don't have to organise.
You don't have to solve.
You don't have to look after anyone else.
You just get to be.
And sometimes that's exactly where we need to begin.

If you've been thinking about booking but keep telling yourself you don't have the time…

Maybe ask yourself whether you can afford to keep running on empty instead.

Following on from yesterday's reel, I want to talk about something that sounds simple, but can actually be really difficult...

Choosing yourself.

Because, as I say, there will always be something else that needs doing. Someone who needs you. Something that can't possibly wait. And before you know it, another day has gone by where you've put yourself at the bottom of the list.... Again.

But here's the thing, choosing yourself doesn't mean you stop caring about the people you love. It doesn't mean you're selfish. It doesn't mean you suddenly abandon all your responsibilities and disappear for a week. 😂 Sometimes choosing yourself is much smaller than that...

It's saying no.
It's asking for help.
It's making the appointment.
It's taking an hour for yourself without feeling guilty.
It's doing something simply because it makes you happy.
It's admitting that you're tired.
Or overwhelmed.
Or just not feeling like yourself.
And allowing someone else to support you.

You shouldn't have to wait until you're completely burnt out to decide that you matter. You are allowed to choose yourself while everything else is still going on.

So this Tuesday... or should I say Choose-day, I'm challenging you to make one choice that puts you back on your own list. It doesn't have to be anything HUGE, just one small thing.

What would you choose?

Love Lou 💜✨

I think we've got self-care completely wrong. 🤍

We've somehow turned self-care into something that needs to look a certain way.

Candles.
Baths.
Face masks.
A quiet coffee.

And yes… absolutely. Give me all of those. 😂

But real self-care isn't always pretty or relaxing.

Sometimes it's saying no.

Sometimes it's asking for help.

Sometimes it's admitting you're struggling.

Sometimes it's cancelling something because you simply don't have the capacity.

And sometimes it's allowing someone else to look after you for a change.

That's one of the reasons I love Reiki.

For an hour, you don't have to organise anything, solve anything, achieve anything or be needed by anyone.

You can simply stop.

And perhaps that's the kind of self-care we need a little more of.

So instead of asking:

“What should I be doing for self-care?”

Try asking:

“What would actually make me feel better?”

There might be a very different answer. 🤍

Love Lou
