Heyday Therapy

Just finished Dostoevsky’s A Nasty Story (A Nasty Business). A fascinating look at ego, pride, class, status, self-deception, and human nature. It raises a deeply uncomfortable question:

Are we helping others because we genuinely care—or because we want to see ourselves as a good person?

Sometimes, the real story isn’t what we do. It’s why we do it.

Resilience isn’t about never falling — it’s about how you rise. 🌱
We all face moments that challenge us, stretch us, and sometimes break us. But resilience is the quiet strength inside you that says, “This isn’t the end of my story.”
💬 Resilience means:
Adapting through life’s challenges
Learning from pain without letting it define you
Choosing growth even when it’s hard
It’s not about being “strong” all the time — it’s about allowing yourself to feel, to rest, to process, and still move forward.
You’re not failing if you’re struggling.
You’re building resilience. One breath, one step, one day at a time. 🧠💛

🧠🎨 A Powerful Metaphor for the Human Struggle

For my Bibliotherapy fans, a personal favourite - 📖 Faust by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

This painting, inspired by Faust, powerfully illustrates the inner battle between despair and resilience. We see two figures locked in a game of chess: Man and Satan. The stakes are high—his soul hangs in the balance.

Man sits on the right, visibly distraught, seemingly cornered, as though facing checkmate. Satan, by contrast, appears smug and self-assured, not even bothering to look at the board—convinced of his victory.

In the background, an angel looks on, her expression heavy with sorrow—perhaps reflecting our own moments of hopelessness.

But here’s the deeper question:
Is the game really over? Or is there still a move left—one that only a shift in perspective can reveal?

This image invites us to reflect on how easily we can feel defeated by our thoughts, emotions, or circumstances. As a psychologist, I often remind clients that even in moments of despair, there may still be possibilities we haven’t considered.

🧩 Sometimes, the game isn’t lost—it just feels that way.
