Emerald Tree Consulting

💚Today is International Bereaved Father’s Day.💚

Our team at Emerald Tree would like to acknowledge all fathers who who have experienced the grief and trauma caused by the death of their baby or child.

Fatherhood does not end when the life of your little one does. You are, and always will be a Dad.

Today brings awareness to the unique ways fathers process grief and counters societal pressures to suppress or hide their sorrow.

💚 We see you and are here to support you 💚

A Place for You
By Michele Meleen

My child, I keep a place for you
where no one else can see.
I have this gift nobody has
the bond between you and me.

At times I cannot feel you here
and that pain won't go away.
But when I search my place for you
you're with me every day.

My child, you're not lost,
you don't need to be found.
I've got you here, in my heart
where we're forever bound.

Yes, and I'm so very grateful

REMEMBER
WHEN YOU WANTED WHAT YOU CURRENTLY HAVE

"Colours of Courage" focusing on the everyday bravery of LGBTQIA+ youth, communities, and allies speaking up and living authentically.

+ #💜

My loyalty kept me in some
situations that common sense
should've took me out of.

Loyalty it's often a good quality, and one that many need to work on in line with their values and goals however, for some it's not at healthy levels.

Some reflection/Journaling points to bring into the session 🤔

Stress gets a bad reputation, but stress itself isn’t necessarily the problem.
Stress is a nervous system response to stimuli. It is the body’s way of responding to what it perceives as a demand, challenge, change, or threat. Importantly, stress isn’t always a conscious or cognitive process. Your nervous system can respond to something before you have consciously thought about or made sense of what is happening.

This response can be helpful. It can prepare your body to focus, act quickly, protect you, or respond to what is happening around you.

The problem is when the stress response becomes too frequent, too intense, or doesn’t switch off properly.

Over time, ongoing stress can affect your sleep, mood, concentration, relationships, and physical wellbeing.

So the goal isn’t to eliminate all stress.

It’s learning to understand your nervous system, respond to what you need, and create opportunities for recovery.
