Nature

23rd September 2016 by Matthew Gorner

Try to spend lots of time in nature.

It may sound simple or obvious but spending time in the natural environment can really help a great deal. For people experiencing psychological distress, focusing on the calmness of nature can give a sense of grounding and relief from the confusion happening in the mind.

Perhaps there is something in the following list that you can do –

  • Do some gardening (or even offer to help in a neighbour’s garden) – plant some flowers in a window box or indoors; grow some veggies
  • Go for a walk in the woods
  • Get involved with a group that works out in nature or helps clean up the local environment. This can be a great way to meet other people and make friends too.
  • Allow yourself to get dirty – Having fun and getting in touch with the earth can be healing.

Emerge Out of your Crisis

This glossary of terms aims to give you some simple but vital tools that can help you to stay safe and manage your process to ‘emerge’ out of your crisis.

A crisis is different for everyone, but one thing is the same for all of us; when we are in crisis we can feel as though everything is falling apart.

To see your crisis as part of a ‘breakdown to breakthrough’ process can help to give a sense of hope.

Having our experiences validated as ‘normal’, real, natural and meaningful can be one of the most important aspects of being able to heal and grow. 

It’s vital that we are kind to ourselves during this time, and allow any emotions to surface and be expressed in a safe environment. 

Having peer support from someone who has gone through similar experiences, and can listen without judgement, is really helpful. Go to the back page to find the resources that will be most helpful for you in your local area.

You are not alone! What you are going through is a normal part of a healing process. Don’t give up – there is light at the end of the tunnel even when you feel in complete darkness.

You are not crazy, you are becoming well and growing into wholeness, and that is a painful process.
