Here's a testimonial from Rauf, who journeyed with Kester for 7 months. We are so proud of how far he has come, having found his authentic voice and purpose in the process - a testament to how with commitment and courage, one can break out of old patterns and find a renewed zest for life.

At Intracresco, we strongly believe in the need for more male-specific mental health approaches in society. Our therapy approach for men takes into account men's specific psychological needs as well as common challenges that men may face.

Love,
K&K

Forgiveness or letting go of a grudge (and the pea

Forgiveness or letting go of a grudge (and the peace that comes along with it) - is not something we can just use our willpower to do. It comes naturally as a part of a process that takes time.

This process involves:
- Understanding why you are holding on to resentment, what are you actually looking for, and how can you achieve that in a healthier way
- Processing and releasing emotions
- Being willing to see the perspective and empathise with the one whom you perceive to have hurt you
- Sending love to yourself and love to the other

This post offers a practical exercise to get you started on the process of letting go.

The reverse also applies – compatibility is when

The reverse also applies – compatibility is when the person your partner authentically wants to become is who you are looking for in a relationship.

For example, if one partner is looking for someone who wants to settle down, but the other partner authentically wants a more adventurous life, there may be incompatibility.

If one partner is looking for someone to play a more masculine role in the relationship, but the other partner’s truest expression of themselves is more feminine, there may be incompatibility.

The challenge is figuring out who we authentically want to become, and who we are looking for in a partner.

Fears, insecurities and trauma can cloud our view of what we authentically want.

For example, a partner who wants a more adventurous life may still stick with a partner who wants to settle down because they fear being alone, which may come from a trauma of childhood neglect.

Healing and inner work helps us find clarity.

As a Singaporean, my life has been characterised by constant competition and comparison.

Even before primary one, parents are fighting to get us into the best school. In school, we are competing with others to get into the best classes. When we graduate, we are competing to get into the best jobs. When we are working, we are competing to get promotions and recognition.

We measure our success based on where we are in comparison to others. When we beat others, it might bring some satisfaction, but it is short-lived. Soon after, we get back into hustling to get on top and earn more and more.

Does it have to be this way? I choose to think not.

Many clients ask me: “Won’t I earn less than others if I follow my passions and take life slower?”

I point out that that is a belief system. Beliefs are neither true nor false. We can choose what we want to believe to determine our reality.

I counter-propose believing instead: “I will attract more abundance and fullness when I follow my passions and take care of my wellbeing. The more I enjoy doing something, the better I get at it. The better I get at it, the more people will want what I have to offer.”

Think of it this way: Would you rather eat food from a chef who dislikes his job and feels unfulfilled, or eat food from a chef who is passionate about creating the most delicious meal for others to enjoy?

Love,
Kester

The intention of this post is to demystify and clarify what emotional safety actually is in relationships.

Often times, we do things that hurt others, we apologise and say, “I will never do it again”. But then it happens again. This creates more distrust and unsafety.

Creating safety is not something that we decide to do. Rather, it is the result of consistent practice in developing self-awareness, emotional regulation, and conscious communication.
