Have you lost connection to yourself?
Here is a question: have you lost connection to your old self? When speaking to them about how I can help, I often hear this from women. They have been mums, carers, or careerwomen for so long that they have stopped focusing on themselves. They may have developed a health condition or experienced a physical […]
Do you take time out regularly?
At the end of 2020, I realised I had only taken one weekend off work. It was a weird year, and I entered distraction and work mode. If I kept busy, there would be no room for worry. The problem with that was that by the end of the year, I was exhausted, hated my […]
Did you switch your seated desk for standing and you still have problems?
Happy Monday to you, and Happy Birthday to me… 45 years young! Every day, every year is a blessing and something to be celebrated. I don’t understand people that are horrified at their age… whatever age you are, you are lucky you are there! Not everyone get’s to be the age we are. We need […]

Nourishing movement, make movement your medicine
I love movement. Even in stillness, there is always movement in your body: with your breath, the lungs, chest, diaphragm, and organs all move, and with your heart beating, blood flows. The unseen microbes are processing and moving our food and drink through our body, and hormones are being released in connection with our rhythms, […]
Movement is medicine… but why?
I am so glad you asked… Your body has evolved for movement… If it hadn’t, we wouldn’t have the joints and muscles we have. We are built for movement, BUT society isn’t evolving to help us move more, but less in the name of convenience and technological advancement. With the invention of the car, the […]
