Health and Wellbeing - Eat, Think, Feel
Nourish and heal your body with what you eat, think and feel
Wanting to make big or small changes towards a healthier and happier life can feel overwhelming. It can be daunting and exhausting, navigating your way through online information overload, and numerous professional services offering to guide and support you.
I am not trained in nutrition or health, but I have learned so much on my own journey.
​
Working long hours, job searching, worries about paying the bills, the responsibilities of parenthood or looking after an elderly parent can feel like there is always something or someone more important than us.

It is not selfish to focus on YOU, it is NECESSARY
My Health Story

My health and lifestyle choices have not been the greatest throughout my adult life.
I am sharing some of my own health story and challenges to hopefully inspire others who want to make changes, but feel stuck and overwhelmed at the thought.
I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia, a condition that causes widespread chronic pain and extreme fatigue. This has been challenging, as a parent and voluntarily running two not for profit organisations.
In my late 40's I realised I had been focusing on weight and size of clothes to judge my health, rather than the internal negative impact of certain foods and lifestyle choices was having on my whole being. Poor nutrition, dehydration, stress and sleep deprivation.
I have seen young people with fibromyalgia needing mobility aids, on multiple medications, yet their pain remained. Then unable to decrease or stop medications due to side effects, bringing frustration, anger, defeat, resulting in more pain and depression. After a short period of time on medications, I came off all pharmaceutical medications, and have not relyed on them since, finding other management strategies.
Long term, life long habits are hard to break. I remained in a vicious cycle of self-destruction.
In 2016 I requested an appointment to see my fibromyalgia consultant. I wanted to ask why I had never been asked what I eat. I was told 'There is no scientific evidence to prove that what people eat affects pain levels'. I disagree, but of course it is not only diet, we need to look at other areas of our lives too.
In 2017 I attended a healing course in Spain. I ate and drank differently, spent days moving, stretching and focusing on breath, doing something that made me happy, surrounded by lovely people. On returning to the UK fibromyalgia pain had eased, but symptoms escalated once more as stress reappeared followed by poor lifestyle choices. This has proven there is hope and I have continued my journey of healing ever since. To find out more, visit my YouTube Channel HERE.
I offer massage for women with fibromyalgia, as I personally know how touch can be so painful, yet it is so important. I am passionate no one should be deprived of touch. Click HERE

2019 I developed immobilising anxiety following a family bereavement, that took me on a path of working on trauma using somatic approaches and counselling alongside. Click HERE and visit Blog October 2019.
In 2021 my dental journey began. From touring the UK visiting endless dentists, to eventually having jawbone and facial surgery in 2025. Click HERE.
Scared of 'failure'? Don't let fear stop you from trying to bring positive changes to your life. People can guide you, but no one can do it for you, it is your responsibility. No one says it will be easy, but one thing is for sure, if we do not try, we will remain stuck. If you can find someone with the knowledge you need to walk alongside you, to support you, especially through those early days of transition, that's great!
Life is an adventure, a journey of self-discovery.
If you go off track, do not dwell on it. Pick yourself up, learn from it and try again. Tomorrow is a new day. Never give up!
