Helping people is good, but when it becomes frequent, that's dependency right there and it can form codependency patterns. Help people but much more: Empower people to help themselves, that helps them evolve and break patterns and they can stand apart. This could look like, 🌹Getting them a job instead of sending them money always 🌹It could be teaching them or paying for them to learn a trade 🌹It could be supporting them to start their own business until it picks speed 🌹It could be cutting off hand downs and teaching them to create 🌹It could be telling the truth to them in love about their flaws 🌹It could be paying for therapy or counseling sessions for them, to help them gain clarity, work out healthy coping skills and strategies to deal to everyday life's stresses and challenges etc ... How have you empowered someone to help themselves? Keep unveiling your uniqueness because it is within you that BLISS is found. I love you 💕 #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #stellaeyabi

The devastating impact of loneliness in young children. Loneliness is a silent struggle that often goes unnoticed, even when kids seemingly have everything they need – a roof over their heads, food on the table, nice clothes, and material comforts. But the truth is, these external things are not enough. As parents, we may get caught up in the busyness of life, juggling work, responsibilities, and commitments. ....And often we may unintentionally overlook the profound importance of our presence in our children's lives. We might assume that material provisions are sufficient, but they are not. Our children need more than just physical necessities – they need our love, attention, and emotional support. Loneliness can be especially devastating for young minds. When kids feel disconnected, isolated, and unheard, it can have long-lasting effects on their mental and emotional well-being. It's heartbreaking to think that children, who should be experiencing the joy and wonder of childhood, are instead battling feelings of emptiness and despair. .....We need to recognize the significance of building open lines of communication with our kids. We must create an environment where they feel safe, heard, and understood. It's crucial to encourage them to express their thoughts, feelings, and struggles without fear of judgment or rejection. By fostering a culture of open communication, we can help prevent the unimaginable pain that some children endure. Suicide rates among young people are alarmingly high, and loneliness often plays a role in their struggles. We cannot underestimate the power of being present and attentive in our children's lives. Let's prioritize quality time with our kids – not just physically being in the same space, but truly engaging with them, listening to their stories, dreams, and fears. Let's create meaningful connections, nurturing their emotional well-being and helping them navigate life's challenges. Remember, it's not about the material possessions we provide; it's about the love and support we offer. Our children deserve our unwavering presence and the reassurance that they are never alone in this world. Together, let's make a difference by being there for our children, building bridges of understanding, and instilling in them a sense of belonging and love. Their precious hearts and minds depend on it. LOVE YOUR CHILDREN! ~ Lorena Acosta. I am not a parent but I was once a child. If I can give one piece of advice to all parents is that, TIME is priceless, it is everything. Be present and consistent with your kids, every day of their life. Yes, food, housing, clothes, school is important but it's not enough. Make sure to have a one on one with your kid every day, or at least a couple times a week. Make them feel heard, included, appreciated, safe. Be their best friend but most of all their parents to protect and guide them. wa.me/237675407460⁩ Stella Etoh-Nombo #parentingchallenges #counselling #support #motivation #mentalhealth #traumahealing #help #healingtrauma

A new non-invasive “memory reprogramming” technique could help erase painful memories — slowly, and gently. It’s called Targeted Memory Reactivation (TMR), and it works by pairing neutral or positive stimuli with traumatic memories, then subtly reinforcing the new connection during sleep using sound cues. Participants in early studies showed reduced emotional response and memory recall of previously negative experiences — a potential game-changer for treating PTSD, anxiety, and depression. If refined, this could lead to a future where emotional healing doesn’t require forgetting — just rewriting. #MemoryReprogramming #EraseBadMemories #MentalHealthInnovation #PTSDRelief #FutureOfTherapy #BrainScience #EmotionalHealing #SleepTherapy #Neuroscience

Depression is real, and it's not just a phase. It's a heavy burden that weighs on the mind, body, and soul. It's a constant companion that whispers lies, steals joy, and drains energy. Don't tell someone to 'snap out of it' or 'be strong.' You wouldn't say that to someone with a broken leg or a chronic illness. Instead, offer a listening ear, a comforting presence, and a supportive voice. Remind them that they're not alone, that they're loved, and that there's hope for healing. Depression may be real, but it's not invincible. With the right support, therapy, and treatment, it's possible to find light in the darkness and to rebuild a life worth living." #DepressionIsReal #MentalHealthMatters #SupportEachOther
