Sending a poem to everyone that might need a cheer up ♥️
It Is That Dream / Olav Grinde
It is the dream we carry
that something wonderful will happen,
that it must happen –
that time will open,
that our hearts may open,
that doors shall open,
and the mountain shall open
that springs will gush forth –
that our dream will open,
and that one morning we’ll glide
into a cove we didn’t know.
Translation of ‘It Is That Dream’ (‘Det er den draumen’ from Dropar i austavind, Noregs boklag, 1966) by Olav Grinde. Text by Jan Inge Sørbø, author of Nynorsk Literary History (Samlaget, 2018). Translated by Matt Bagguley.
At the start and at the end of a day take a deep breath🧘🏼♂️🧘🏿
Stress isn’t a condition anymore; rather it’s a serious illness that gives rise to several other health issues such as heart disease, sleep disorders, diabetes, obesity and more. Strategic counseling puts your mind at ease and reduces your stress.
We are often too biased to our own opinions and experiences that sometimes they put our life in trouble. Counseling provides you a different and helpful perspective on things that can help you remove negativities from your life.

Tell yourself in the morning that it is going to be a wonderful day, and stay hopeful. It may not always end up as expected, but it is an excellent mindset to have if you want to stay positive throughout the day.
A true saying by Mark Caine: “The first step toward success is taken when you refuse to be a captive of the environment in which you first find yourself.”
While our expert counseling guides you through every step of the way to help you enhance your quality of life, factors such as motivation, willpower, hope, social support, and resources also play a very crucial role in determining outcomes.
“Positive thinking is powerful thinking. If you want happiness, fulfillment, success and inner peace, start thinking you have the power to achieve those things. Focus on the bright side of life and expect positive results.” – Germany Kent
“Trust yourself. Create the kind of self that you will be happy to live with all your life. Make the most of yourself by fanning the tiny, inner sparks of possibility into flames of achievement.” — Golda Meir
Emotional abuse can be subtle or overt, but there are signs to a problem, including frequency, abusive and demeaning language, cruelty, and a lack of remorse from the abuser. If you think you're in an abusive relationship, please seek help from a counselor.
If you have pre-teen or teenagers who have suffered in some way because of a bullying incident, they may direct their emotions inward, but there are also many outward signs that signal a cry for help. A counselor can help your child, and you, with this issue.
For those diagnosed with a serious disease, the traumatic impact can be as devastating as the illness itself. Visits with a counselor can help you understand your reactions and emotions and help you find the strength to face what lies ahead.
Human lives are built on a hierarchy of experiences, which can make it difficult to tell what issues are at the root of a problems. Professional counseling can help with understanding what is contributing to your emotional struggles so they can be addressed and overcome.
Because each of us is a unique individual, there is no “one-size-fits-all” approach to counseling after a tragedy. This is why it is important to seek help from a counseling service you trust, feel comfortable with, and that will help you restore a sense of normalcy.

Divorce and other emotional breakups can trigger depression in either (or both) party. While being sad for a short time is normal, if the feelings last longer than a week or ten days with no improvement, help may be needed.
