Beginnings

Hello and welcome!

I hope to use this blog to share practice wisdom acquired over many years as a Community Health Social Worker in a rural town in NSW.

I love using metaphors, as you will discover, and my next post will be based on one.

For now though, this is a new beginning for me. Beginnings help to keep our lives interesting and our brains active. They expand our horizons, but can also be scary and need a dose of courage. Clients coming in for their first appointments may be facing beginnings (doing something new for the first time) and we need to respect and acknowledge the courage it may have taken them to attend.

We need to be kind to ourselves too when facing beginnings.

See you next time!
