In the Art of War, Sun Tzu wrote,

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

Written for the battlefield in 5th century B.C., much of Sun Tzu’s insight can be applied to modern life—in particular to the enemies within, and without, which undermine our calm, confidence and connection with loved ones.

Enemies are not always people. More often, they are unhelpful habits, thoughts and attitudes that cause harm and destruction in the inner most parts of our mind, body and spirit. Like parasites, they can cling to us for years, even a lifetime, wreaking havoc on our wellbeing and sucking the life out of our relationships.

The enemies I speak of walk among us disguised as guilt, negativity and “shoulds.” They are the distractions that keep us from focusing on what’s important. They are the things that make us “so busy.” They are the reactions that cause our blood pressure to rise. They are found in the choices we make that leave us overwhelmed, exhausted and stuck.

We say we are fine. But are we really? Are we living our lives in the way we would wish our children to live theirs or do we tell them to do as we say rather than as we do? Are we demonstrating peace, joy and contentment?

When you feel stuck, overwhelmed and exhausted what do you do? If we do what we’ve always done, we keep getting the same results. But what if we were armed with coping skills and strategies that could easily turn stressful, difficult and sticky situations into positive ones?

 

You Gotta Have Skills

Skills and strategies are what Brisbane-based psychotherapists Roxanie Lebsanft and Laurie Morrison specialize in. For a combined 20 years, this duo has helped women who lack essential strategies for managing emotions and communicating effectively.

“I cannot tell you how many women struggle with good stress coping skills. We talk to them every day and see the domino effect their struggle to cope has on their family and relationships,” says Laurie“Awareness and strategies are the two things we need to successfully identify and eradicate the enemies that undermine our wellbeing and our relationships.”

Roxanie and Laurie want every woman to know that it doesn’t have to be so hard and that you can ward off those stress and guilt monsters! To make the professional help they offer affordable and available to all, Roxanie and Laurie developed Sticky Strategies.

Having recently completed the 12-week Sticky Strategies program, I can vouch for its effectiveness at teaching interpersonal, self-care and stress coping skills. Since finishing the program, my mind has turned time and time again to practical tips like:

  • Tuning my “search beam” to hunt for positives
  • Putting my ears on
  • Removing that certain word from my vocabulary

The strategies work and I would love for you to try them—here’s a way you can!

Testimonials

“Thank you for the Sticky Strategies series. I’m really glad for the thoughts and practices it prompts. When I was a teacher our Ministry of Education did a major review/audit of what it called “Best Practices.” They interviewed teachers known for their successes and then published their ‘best practices’ in the hopes that less successful teachers would learn and see that best practices aren’t that difficult, once you put an effort into it they are self-rewarding!! The Bare Hands team has taken ‘best practices’ and streamlined them, making them so user-friendly and enjoyable. Roxy does a great job with the clips. I grin through most of them . . . the dog ears for ‘Listen First’ really did me in this week. . . and the supporting pages are well written, succinct and yet very helpful. I look forward to the delivery ‘ping’ as it lands in my mailbox each week. —Michelle, A Mother of 3
