The best years of your life are the ones in which you decide your problems are your own.  You realize that you control your own destiny ― Albert Ellis I Am Me I own my fantasies, my dreams, my hopes, my fears. I own all my triumphs and successes, all my failures and mistakes. Because I own all of me I can become intimately acquainted with me. By doing so I can love me and be friendly with me in all parts. I can then make it possible for all of me to work in my best interests.

I know there are aspects about myself that puzzle me, and other aspects that I do not know. But as long as I am friendly and loving to myself, I can courageously and hopefully, look for solutions to the puzzles and for ways to find out more about me.
Virginia Satir
I Am Me
I am me. In all the world, there is no one exactly like me. There are persons who have some parts like me, but no one adds up exactly like me. Therefore, everything that comes out of me is authentically mine because I alone choose it.

I own everything about me, My body including everything it does. My mind including all its thoughts and ideas. My eyes including the images of all they behold. My feelings whatever they may be… anger, joy, frustration, love, disappointment, excitement. My Mouth and all the words that come out of it polite, sweet or rough, correct or incorrect; My Voice loud or soft. And all my actions, whether they be to others or to myself.
― Virginia Satir
I Am Me However I look and sound, whatever I say and do, and whatever I think and feel at a given moment in time is ME . This is authentic and represents where I am in that moment in time. When I review later how I looked and sounded, what I said and did, and how I thought and felt, some parts may turn out to be unfitting. I can discard that which is unfitting, and keep that which proved fitting, and invent something new for that which I discarded.
I can see, hear, feel, think, say and do. I have the tools to survive, to be close to others, to be productive, and to make sense and order out of the world of people and things outside of me. I own me, and therefore I can engineer me.
I am me and I am okay.
― Virginia Satir
I Am Me Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space lies our freedom to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and freedom. ― Victor Frankl I Am Me The greatest thing, in all of education, is to make our nervous system our ally as opposed to our enemy. ― William James I Am Me That which we persist in doing becomes easier to do, not that the nature of the thing has changed but that our power to do so has increased. ― Ralph Waldo Emerson

“ First, I wanted to tell you, aside of my general gratitude towards you and the help which you provided over the past weeks, how much yesterday's exchange helped me to deal with what happened over the weekend. Seriously, thank you! ”

“ Having battled depression for years and having been in psychotherapy before with another therapist, I was eager to learn some new ways to manage myself better, and Mini Nair was a huge help in this regard. She gave me insights into my thought patterns and showed me how I could start thinking differently to change my present and future. At my age, I was doubtful if I could in fact change at all, but my sessions with her made it so very possible. ”

“ The separation from my wife had taken a toll on my mental health and I had lost my self confidence which was affecting my personal as well as professional life. When my well wishers recommended therapy to me, I was sceptical at first but still decided to go ahead as I realised that I needed help. My therapist Mini Nair is a gem of a person who was very patient with me as we started our sessions and she helped me untangle the knots from my past, which really put me at ease. Her way of teaching me how to cope with anxiety are very useful which I still practice in my day to day life.”
