As we find ourselves midway through Eating Disorders Awareness Week, I want to take a moment to address the unique challenges our Black community faces in dealing with eating disorders. It’s important to recognise that our well-being matters, and our experiences are valid and seen. We acknowledge the specific challenges our Black community members may encounter when it comes to eating disorders. It’s important to approach these difficulties with empathy and understanding, creating a space where EVERYONE feels acknowledged and supported. Facing discrimination while dealing with eating disorders is unacceptable. We stand against any biases that may add an extra layer of difficulty to this journey. It’s crucial to work together to eliminate discriminatory practices and ensure equal access to support for everyone. To those in the midst of this journey, remember that your healing matters. Seeking support is a sign of strength, and you don’t have to face this alone. By talking openly about eating disorders within our Black community, we contribute to breaking the stigma and fostering understanding. As we move forward through this week, I’d like us to continue to amplify our voices and work together to ensure that everyone, regardless of their background, has access to the support they need. Your well-being is important and sharing your experiences matter. @blackmindsmatter.uk #BlackCommunitySupport #EDAW2024 #MidweekReflections #blackmindsmatteruk #eatingdisorders #disorderedeating #healing #recovery #beat #dietculture #bodyimage #stigma #shame #orri #beat #psychotherapy #counselling #NHS #IAPT #BEAT #ORRI

New Month, New Books to Read! Month 11 of 2023… most of the books I’ve been reading over the last few months are books that I’ve had on my shelf for years, books I go back to for nostalgia. This month, I’m back to discover new literature to add to my book collection! 📚One book is for pure entertainment, the other is for contributing to my overall mental health! Here’s a spoiler-free summary: 🧝🏾♀️ Book 1 of the fantasy series Chronicles of the Raven, Dawnthief follows the elite team of The Raven who are swords for hire, pulled into a world of politics and ancient ecrets - bringing doubt to their loyalty and code. 🏥Book 4 of the #Merky books ‘How to…’ series, How to Calm It is filled with tools, exercises and tips on how we can better process what’s going on in our minds and learn to value and love ourselves. What books are you reading this month?💜 #dawnthief #chroniclesoftheraven #howtocalmit #blackmindsmatteruk #merkybooks #bookstagram #booklover #bookworm #readersofinstagram
Black, Straight Up Black; the opposite of white That's about right. On opposite sides of the tracks, the picket line; the fence; No offence meant, but You hue-less; and clueless; and Jealous, and Always trying to be like us. Why else you out in the sun? It's a pigment of your imagining, So you inject melanin into your skin. My race is clear! I'm straight up Black. I embrace My Strength; My Blackness; My Boldness; My Beauty; Cause contrary to belief, Black is not ugly. Black is beauty. Black is me. Race will not hold me back. I'm Proud; and Shouting it loud. I'm straight up, Black!

As a community, we can often consciously and unconsciously put pressure on our Black men to be strong. We want to normalise and encourage men that’s it’s okay to show emotions, be vulnerable and be honest in what may be going on for them mentally! _ #blackmindsmatter #blackmindsmatteruk #blackmentalhealth #blackmenmentalhealthawareness #menshealthweek2023

As therapists, we all have moments in life when we don’t feel so great about stuff! Perhaps we may have had some recent negative experiences that have left us feeling some sort of way!

Do you give yourself permission to slow down, rest and do absolutely nothing? You are no good to anyone if you don’t look after yourself. As therapists we have to create strong boundaries and be able to say “No” even when we are dying to say yes!! 😊😊 Know your limits! It’s important.

This week is Mental Health Awareness Week and theme is Loneliness. It's okay to feel lonely sometimes. Life can take us away from our friends, family and those we love. Having boundaries that are solid and standards that are high can also make us feel as though we have difficulty forming relationships, leading us to feel lonely. Loneliness is tough. But never feel you need to completely change to let people in. What is meant for you will always be for you, and those who are meant for you will find you. Look after yourself. Let us know how you tackle loneliness in the comments. . . . . #mentalhealthawarenessweek #loneliness #mentalhealthmatters #blackmentalhealth #melanatedthoughts #melanatedthoughtsuk #blackmindsmatteruk
Recovering from trauma can mean moving away from what’s familiar. Sometimes you have to open your eyes and see what is really going on in your life. It includes having the wisdom and strength to make different choices and walk away from certain situations. When the penny drops, you start to realise that you have stayed too long in bad situations, relationships or friendships that are not aligned with your values. It’s ok to start afresh!

If you think this is a post about forgiveness, you missed the entire purpose of the post. This is about empowerment and looking at a traumatized person and considering their safety as a priority. It is about considering what is going on inside their mind and body that is triggering, while they are hoping for a sense of relief. It is about the aftermath of unjust acts that someone is coping with (trying to make sense of), while they are watching life continue on with a new uncertainty. It is about offering hope and connection, so they feel that someone is listening and will keep them close. It is about seeing a person hurting and instead of projecting bad ideas, pausing enough to recognize they need real time support. That hurting persons relationship with someone who traumatized them has nothing to do with their immediate healing. They have enough of their plate that they are adjusting to. Adding responsibility on them repairing or understanding someone else’s motive in traumatizing them is inconsiderate, and it will cause them more harm. ***For those recovering from childhood trauma, I have written a guide around inner child work. It is free and can be downloaded at the link in my bio*** Can you name the thing the most vulnerable parts of you needs right now to experience more healing?

When you set boundaries and communicate how you feel, some people in your life will resist the positive changes you are introducing! They benefit from your lack of growth !

Trauma therapy will help you to build your capacity to handle a wide range of emotions and understand why you feel what you feel. You become more curious of your emotions and feelings rather than push them away. You can start to learn useful and effective coping strategies that empower you to deal with the trauma memories without suppressing them.

So many people wonder why they struggle to connect with others, build and sustain meaningful relationships or just feel able to cope with daily challenges. As a child, you rely on your care givers to introduce you to the world and show you how to navigate it! When the care givers react with anger to your needs, and seem resentful of your need for them, this can leave you feeling terrified, alone, rejected, confused and extremely vulnerable. It is not your fault that your parents failed you. It is your responsibility to seek out the psychological help that you need to learn to interact with the world and feel safe in it.

With the support of YouthWatch Leeds and @blm_leeds @majestic_marvina, the film 'Being Black and Being Me was made n which children and young people talk about the highs and lows, their thoughts about education and also what mental health means to them. A year and a half on, we look back at the impact the film has had. If you haven't watched the film yet, head on over to the @hwleeds YouTube channel.

Going through therapy for childhood trauma needs to be a conscious decision where you are signing up to confront distressing memories (in a safe environment where you feel contained). It is a real collaboration between client and therapist where both bring their own expertise into the partnership. When therapy works, it results in beautiful outcomes that feel very rewarding for both client and therapist .💕 We offer a compassionate approach to helping you figure it out!

Sometimes we come to the realisation that over time, we have developed patterns of behaviour that make us feel less important, not good enough and unloved. We recreate patterns from our childhood that cause us a lot of suffering. With the right therapy, we can start to unlearn these behaviours as we identify the damage caused and work towards changing the way we think, feel, behave and respond when these painful patterns get activated. Therapy will allow us to pay close attention to these pervasive patterns so that we can generate a less painful way of being. Anything is possible when we decide to address the past and change our relationship with those painful memories! We offer a compassionate approach to helping you figure it out!

Unresolved trauma can damage relationships and prevent you from connecting with others. The emotional pain results in unhelpful coping behaviour that perpetuates your trauma. A combination of EMDR and Schema therapy goes a long way in addressing complex childhood trauma. We offer a compassionate approach to helping you figure it out!

My entry for the #xthetee competition. In this unique piece I felt to honour just some of the beauty and diversity of the black community whilst highlighting the connection between us that is unseen . The mental, emotional and spiritual realm. Although as people we are all so different, so many shades, cultures, features, and beliefs- we all have a mind and a soul. and it’s from our internal word, from the ethers which we birth everything. It’s vital for us to have spaces to not only be nurtured, heard and appreciated artistically and creatively but also emotionally and spiritually. When we are balanced and nourished holistically- everything thrives. More vulnerability, more connection, more creativity, more community, more healing. We deserve it all 🧡🧡 #blackmindsmatteruk #xthetracks #xthetracksfestival #mentalhealth #healing #creatives #supportcreativity #supoortblackart
Are we taking enough time to look after ourselves? It may be that we do lots of stuff for others as a therapists, carers, parents, teachers, nurses, doctors or any other role that allows you to help other people. The bottom line is that, we need to take time out and fill up our glasses first before we continue to pour into others glasses. Start today and ask yourself what you need and take some action to meet those needs.
