The Art of Saying No (Summary)

We often live on autopilot, identifying with our trauma and repeating old patterns. But healing begins the moment we realise:

We are not our thoughts, our past, or our circumstances.

We always have the power to choose our response.

Saying yes to yourself and saying no to what no longer is your 'energy', what doesn't serve you anymore.

Each no builds self-respect and strengthens your foundation.

The more you say no, the less you settle for less.

As Viktor Frankl taught, even in the darkest times, we hold one final freedom; the freedom to choose how we respond.

The art of saying no is ultimately the art of saying yes: yes to clarity, yes to strength, yes to yourself.

Exercise at the end.

In my practice, I notice that so many women are disconnected from their feminine energy.

They push, perform, and strive in ways that leave them depleted, missing the deep wisdom, pleasure, and vitality that come from tuning into their Yoni and womb space.

While others are just afraid to fully shine, because they have been told once not to be ‘too much’ or were objected by men.

By honouring our natural rhythms, and reconnecting with their life-force, women can awaken their true power, magnetism, and creativity.

Feminine energy is not only nurturing — it is a force of manifestation, intuition, and radiant confidence waiting to be re-discovered.

Many of you have asked me to write down the affirmations I use at the end of some exercises — including EFT.

So I’ve created this post just for you 🌿

Say them out loud or silently in your mind, then inhale deeply through your nose, hold the space for a moment, and exhale slowly through your mouth.

Feeling overwhelmed or anxious?

You’re definitely not alone.

Over the years, through my own experience and my work with clients, I’ve discovered some simple yet powerful tools that help calm the nervous system and bring you back to centre. They’re practical, easy to try, and don’t require complicated exercises.

If one of these spoke to you, start there. You don’t need to do all of them or do them perfectly. Just trying one is already a good shift.

Let me know which one you tried, which one surprised you, or which one you’ll be keeping close.

And if someone you care about is going through a tough time, feel free to share these with them 🤍

A personal note from me 🤍

This post was long overdue. I’ve been meaning to share something for those of us who feel — the weight of the world, the pain, the urgency — and don’t always know what to do with it.

It’s for anyone feeling overwhelmed, anxious, low, or just quietly exhausted by it all. These are things that have helped me when I needed grounding, and maybe they can help you too. You don’t have to be a highly sensitive person to feel too much right now — being human is enough.

You’re not alone.

With love,
Alina

There are things in life that will always happen, such as loss, heartbreak, events that change our circumstances, etc. However they happen with us, not to us.

Research on post-traumatic growth (PTG) suggests that adopting an empowered mindset after trauma leads to greater wellbeing.

Studies by Tedeschi and Calhoun show that individuals who reframe their trauma as a catalyst for growth experience higher life satisfaction, deeper relationships, and a stronger sense of purpose compared to those who remain in a victim mindset.

I've seen clients stuck in victim mode, operating from wounds that were supposed to heal, but decided to believe that they deserved it or that "life is unfair". No one will come to save us, other than ourselves, if we want to.

You can choose to be the hero of your own story or stay in victim mode. The choice is always ours.

Shifting from a victim mindset to an empowered one starts with reframing your experience.

Instead of asking, ‘Why did this happen to me?’ try, ‘What can I learn from this?’

Recognise your strength, focus on what you can control, and take small steps toward recovery.

Growth isn’t about denying trauma and pain—it’s about using them to build a stronger version of yourself.

What is Holistic Counselling?

Over the years, I’ve studied both psychology and Eastern practices like meditation, mindfulness, breath work, yoga, and more. Through over a decade of working with individuals and groups, I’ve discovered something profound: the emotions we hold—whether from trauma, limiting beliefs, or negative experiences—are stored within us, and from this place, we function day to day.

Holistic counselling is about addressing the whole person—mind, body, and soul—because they’re deeply connected.

The emotions we carry don’t just affect our thoughts, and therefore our feelings and behaviour. They’re stored in our emotional physical body as well.
Often, we don’t notice these blocks. We carry them without realising it, pushing through daily life without listening to our bodies.

These blocks then build up with time, and eventually, the stress-related illness we’ve ignored transforms into a physical ailment. It’s only when it becomes too late, when the body is overwhelmed, that we realise the true cost of it.

Anything is possible.

I have witnessed ‘ordinary miracles’ through my work. Your body achieves what your mind believes. I tested the holistic method not just on hundreds of individuals but on myself as well, overcoming challenges I never thought I could.

Holistic counselling is transformative because it helps clear these stored blocks and energy imbalances, allowing you to reconnect with your body’s natural state of balance, or homeostasis. I aim to equip my clients with effective techniques they can use outside of sessions, empowering them to continue their healing journey on their own.

What makes this method the most effective is its focus on the present moment. Unlike traditional Western practices that often overanalyse the past or focus on the future, holistic counselling happens in the now. By focusing on the present, we can not only heal the past but also influence and shape the future. It addresses the root cause of the problem, not just the symptom.

Psychosomatic Practices: The Connection Between Mind and Body

Psychosomatic practices focus on the profound connection between the mind (psyche) and the body (soma), recognising how mental and emotional states can influence physical health, and vice versa. These approaches take an integrative view of wellbeing, addressing both psychological and physical factors to promote healing and balance.

These frequently have a connection to stress, trauma, or unresolved emotional experiences (blocks), which can manifest in the body as physical symptoms.

By combining techniques that work on mental, emotional, and physical levels, these practices empower individuals to achieve a deeper state of healing and holistic wellbeing.

Understanding and embracing these approaches allows us to see health through a broader lens—one that recognises the inseparable relationship between mind and body.

Here are some small grounding practices for you:

1. Body Scan Meditation: close your eyes, take a few deep breaths, and gently bring your awareness to different parts of your body. Start from your feet and work your way up to your head, noticing any tension and releasing it with each exhale. This connects you back to your body and the present moment.

2. Mindful Breathing: spend a few minutes focusing on your breath. Try breathing in for a count of four, holding for four, and breathing out for six or eight. Longer exhales engage the parasympathetic nervous system, which calms the body.

3. Journaling for Release: write down any worries or negative thoughts, then imagine placing them in a mental “container” that you can set aside. This externalises the thoughts, giving you a chance to distance yourself from them.

4. Gratitude Reflection: shift focus by listing three things you’re grateful for. They can be as simple as a warm drink or a moment of peace. Gratitude can change your emotional state, even in subtle ways.

5. Sensory Anchoring: use your senses to bring yourself into the present. Notice three things you see, three things you hear, and three things you feel. This helps to ground your attention in what’s physically around you, pulling you out of repetitive or anxious thoughts.

6. Visualisation: imagine yourself somewhere peaceful, like a quiet forest or a sunny seaside. Envision yourself leaving your worries behind as you walk toward this calm, serene place.

This is one of those pieces of advice I’d give to my younger self if someone asked. I’d say, stop trying to help people who aren’t ready or willing to take responsibility for their own healing.
It took me years to understand that you can’t do someone’s inner work for them, no matter how much you care. You can’t fix their pain, soothe their insecurities, or carry the weight of their emotions.
Sometimes, you need to let them hit rock bottom. Healing is a deeply personal journey, and everyone is responsible for their own. It's not something that just happens—it’s an active process that requires effort, self-reflection, and sometimes, the willingness to face the hardest truths.

You can’t walk that path for them, you can be there for them, but you can't do it for them.

Ways to assess someone's emotional intelligence during a conversation:

By truly listening, we can gain valuable insight into a person's character. How they communicate can reveal a lot about their emotional intelligence. Consider the following:

1. How they ask quesions. Are these being thoughtful / open-ended?
2. How they speak about others, especially those they’ve had conflicts with
3. How they listen and respond to emotions, not just facts
4. How they handle disagreements or differing perspectives

Ways to assess someone's emotional intelligence during a conversation:

By truly listening, we can gain valuable insight into a person's character. How they communicate can reveal a lot about their emotional intelligence. Consider the following:

1. How they ask quesions. Are these being thoughtful / open-ended?
2. How they speak about others, especially those they’ve had conflicts with
3. How they listen and respond to emotions, not just facts
4. How they handle disagreements or differing perspectives
5. How they express their emotions without blaming others
6. How they receive and respond to criticism

This holistic approach to emotional regulation involves engaging your mind, body, and emotions together.

It helps you identify, accept, and validate your feelings, rather than suppressing or ignoring them, which can create emotions trapped in the body or emotional blocks.

By acknowledging emotions and connecting them with physical sensations, you can better understand and process what you're experiencing.

This method promotes inner balance, allowing you to release emotions in a healthy way, leading to greater self-awareness and emotional wellbeing.

Here’s something to consider: genuine clarity comes from listening—to your gut, intuition, body, and others around you.

To become more self-aware and perceptive, regularly tune in to these internal and external signals.

Examine key signs to deepen your understanding: emotional shifts, physical sensations, recurring thoughts, intuitive nudges, what people really say versus what you project or want to hear, and changes in your environment.

Additionally, be mindful of six potential blocks to seeing the truth: fear of discomfort, cognitive dissonance, fear of change, self-protection, social pressure, and uncertainty.

By addressing these blocks, you can gain deeper insights and make more informed decisions.

Another lesson learned, another experience gained.

As I reflect on my own progress, I realise the importance of giving ourselves time to pause and digest before moving on to the next chapter.

Without this pause, we risk falling into familiar patterns with different people, in workplaces, relationships, and various experiences. By rushing forward, we may overlook valuable lessons meant to facilitate our growth.

It's in these moments of introspection that we can break free from old habits and gain new perspectives, ensuring each step forward is deliberate and authentic.

We tend to get disappointed in people, because we trust our expectations about their behaviour instead of trusting their actions first.

Disappointment in others often stems from a fundamental misalignment between our expectations and their actual behaviour. We frequently place our trust in the assumptions and hopes we form about how people should act, rather than basing our trust on their demonstrated actions and patterns of behaviour. This reliance on our expectations sets us up for disappointment when reality does not align with what we envisioned.

To mitigate this, it's crucial to shift our approach: instead of expecting people to act in certain ways, we should observe and evaluate their actions over time. By doing so, we build trust based on concrete evidence rather than hopeful anticipation, leading to more realistic and resilient relationships. This approach not only helps in reducing disappointment but also fosters a deeper understanding and acceptance of others as they truly are.

The more I explore different models of change in psychology, the clearer it becomes: everything starts with acceptance. Acceptance serves as the starting point for transformation, providing a solid foundation upon which to build. It requires a raw (and often painful) acknowledgment of our present reality, situation, flaws and all, and the determination to move forward despite any imperfection. This process isn't passive; it's an active choice to confront our truth and pursue better options. Once it’s done, as the new perspective is taken a shift occurs, clearing a path to transformative change. This shift in mindset liberates us from the constraints of old patterns and beliefs, opening up new possibilities for growth.

Longevity Sustained: Recognising the Power of Social Connections

Those coffee meet ups, phone calls, and joy filled moments with friends and family can benefit us more than we realise. Did you know that your social circle holds the key to a healthier, more fulfilling life? According to the World Health Organization (WHO), strong social connections and support networks are crucial for promoting lifelong wellness and overall wellbeing.

Social networks are like pillars of support for our mental health. When we share our thoughts, feelings, and experiences with people we trust, we not only lighten our burdens but also gain valuable perspectives and insights. The simple act of talking things out can alleviate stress, reduce anxiety, and enhance our emotional resilience.

Moreover, our relationships provide us with a sense of belonging and validation. Feeling connected to others helps tackle feelings of loneliness and isolation, which are significant risk factors for mental health issues. When we feel supported and understood by those around us, we're better equipped to cope with life's challenges with confidence and optimism.

Friendships can serve as safety nets, offering reassurance and comfort during challenging times. Knowing that we have understanding and supportive friends and family members around us to lean on creates a sense of security and stability in our lives.

Let’s appreciate those moments of connection and nurture our relationships.

I remember I was once told when coping with a loss, that it will hurt so much, but every day it will hurt just a little bit less, and that's how I will know that healing is taking place.

We need to feel the feelings, and not to escape, overwrite, reject, or minimise them, or to be afraid of them.

Allowing ourselves to feel our emotions, no matter how painful, is a key part of this process. It's through this act of accepting our pain that we make way for eventual equilibrium and peace.

Understanding the difference between responding and reacting is important for holistic health. Reacting is often impulsive and emotion-driven, while responding involves a thoughtful, measured approach. Calmness is key, enabling us to respond mindfully rather than reactively. Reacting can heighten stress and anxiety, whereas responding with composure promotes overall wellbeing. Developing this awareness fosters balance and resilience.

Research suggests that physical exercise can significantly affect hormone regulation in the body (Abbenhardt et al, 2013; Cadore et al, 2014). Here are key ways in which exercise influences hormone levels:

Endorphins: exercise triggers the release of endorphins, neurotransmitters acting as natural painkillers and mood enhancers, reducing stress and promoting well-being.

Adrenaline and noradrenaline: during exercise, the adrenal glands release adrenaline and noradrenaline, increasing heart rate, blood pressure, and energy levels, preparing the body for activity.

Cortisol: exercise temporarily boosts cortisol levels, especially during intense or prolonged activity. Regular exercise helps regulate cortisol levels, improving stress management over time.

Insulin: exercise enhances insulin sensitivity, aiding cells in absorbing glucose from the bloodstream, regulating blood sugar levels, and reducing the risk of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.

Growth hormone: regular exercise prompts the release of growth hormone, crucial for growth, metabolism, and tissue repair, promoting lean muscle mass and fat metabolism.

Testosterone: exercise, particularly resistance training, can elevate testosterone levels in both genders, vital for muscle growth, bone density, and overall vitality.

Estrogen and progesterone: regular exercise helps regulate estrogen and progesterone levels in women, potentially improving menstrual regularity and reducing premenstrual syndrome (PMS) symptoms.

Leptin and ghrelin: exercise influences appetite hormones like leptin and ghrelin. Leptin suppresses appetite, while ghrelin stimulates hunger. Regular physical activity helps maintain a healthy hormonal balance, aiding weight management.

In summary, maintaining a regular exercise regimen is crucial for achieving and sustaining optimal hormone balance, leading to improved overall health and wellbeing.

Contrary to the popular notion that mindfulness primarily involves observing one's surroundings; it extends beyond external awareness. Mindfulness, rather than solely focusing on the environment, requires an aspect of turning inwards and attentively observing inner processes. While acknowledging the importance of being present in the external moment, practice of mindfulness delves into the exploration of one's thoughts, emotions, and internal experiences.

This inward journey involves a heightened awareness of the present moment's internal reflection without judgment. By turning attention to inner processes, individuals can gain valuable insights into their thought patterns, emotional responses, and overall mental states. This introspective dimension of mindfulness contributes significantly to self-awareness, fostering a profound connection with one's inner world.

In essence, mindfulness involves an outward observance of the external surroundings along with an inward exploration of the intricacies of one's thoughts and emotions. This holistic approach not only enriches the understanding of mindfulness but also empowers individuals to be present in both their external and internal experiences with greater clarity and purpose.

Contrary to the popular notion that mindfulness primarily involves observing one's surroundings; it extends beyond external awareness. Mindfulness, rather than solely focusing on the environment, requires an aspect of turning inwards and attentively observing inner processes.

Life is a constant journey of change, where the path we choose may never reveal what could have been if we had been a bit more adventurous.

It's often the missed opportunities that stay with us, a constant reminder of the uncertainty of what might have transpired. Research has shown that the regrets associated with missed opportunities or the things we didn't do are more profound than the regrets for the mistakes we made. Regret can be a powerful emotion, stemming from the choices we didn't make and the risks we hesitated to take.

However, it's essential to remember that life's unpredictability is what makes it both challenging and beautiful. Embracing risks, even when the outcome is uncertain, can lead to some of our most profound and rewarding experiences. So, while we may rue the opportunities left unexplored, we must also celebrate the moments when we took that leap of faith, for they often hold the key to our most cherished memories and personal growth.

The Unknown Advantages of Setting Boundaries

In life we're often taught to be considerate, accommodating, and selfless. But what they don't teach us in school is the art of setting healthy boundaries. It's a skill that's seldom practiced and rarely discussed, yet it holds the power to reshape and improve our quality of life.

If you've grown up in a family where boundaries weren't nurtured, it can be even more challenging to embark on this path. You might find that the first attempts at setting boundaries feel like you're being aggressive or rude to others. In reality, you're simply not accustomed to speaking up for yourself and asserting firm limits.

Remember that it's a journey, and that it takes assertiveness, reflection and observation to get there. As you practice setting boundaries, you'll uncover the unknown advantages they bring. These benefits extend far beyond self-preservation, touching every aspect of your life.

Enhanced Relationships: Setting clear boundaries fosters healthier, more respectful connections with others. When they know your limits, they can better understand and respect your needs.

Increased Productivity: Boundaries help you stay focused and prioritise your time and energy. This can lead to higher productivity and greater efficiency in your work and personal life.

Improved Self-esteem: When you assert your boundaries, you send a powerful message to yourself that you deserve to be treated with respect and consideration. This boosts your self-esteem and self-worth.

Reduced Stress: By preventing overcommitment and burnout, boundaries can significantly reduce stress levels.

Remember, setting boundaries isn't about being rigid or closed off. It's about creating a space where you can heal, grow and thrive. ✨️💫

Self-knowledge is a fundamental element of personal growth and decision making. It assists us in our lives by understanding our preferences, values, and limitations. Here are alternative examples to illustrate this concept:

Social Engagement: You decline an invitation to an event because you've realised through self-reflection that your introverted nature leaves you drained in such settings. Instead, you opt for a cosy evening at home to recharge your energy.

Career Path: You pursue a career in environmental services because deep self-reflection has shown you the strong connection between your passion for nature and your desire to make a positive impact on the world. This alignment with your values fuels your motivation and satisfaction at work.

Community Contribution: You volunteer at a local charity because self-knowledge has made you aware of your deep-seated desire to give back to your community. You understand that being an active part of positive change aligns with your core values and fulfils a sense of purpose.

In all of these situations, you learn more about yourself, which not only helps you make immediate decisions but also opens doors to new opportunities. You become better at knowing when it's time to take a break and recharge, ensuring you start each day with renewed energy.

Additionally, these experiences introduce you to likeminded individuals and place you in environments where you can continue to develop and expand.
