Apparently we're all going back to the 80s… and frankly, I think I've found my era. 🤣

I spend a lot of my working life talking about stress, nervous systems, slowing down, listening to our bodies and generally taking better care of ourselves.

All important stuff.

But here's your reminder that wellbeing doesn't always have to be so bloody serious.

Sometimes it's meditation.

Sometimes it's massage.

Sometimes it's getting outside.

Sometimes it's laughing until your stomach hurts because the internet has given you enormous hair, shoulder pads and a questionable devotion to Duran Duran. 😂

Play counts. Joy counts. Silliness counts.

We're adults. We have bills, responsibilities, overflowing laundry baskets and approximately 4,726 things to think about at any given moment.

We are still allowed to be ridiculous occasionally.

In fact, I think some of us could probably do with being ridiculous a little more often. 💗

Anyway. I'm off to buy a lava lamp and make a mixtape. ✌️🤣

The place that hurts isn't always the place that needs attention.

It's one of the reasons I stopped offering treatments based purely on individual therapies and moved towards Whole Person Healing.

Someone might come to me because their shoulders are permanently up around their ears.

Of course I'm interested in what's happening physically.

But I'm also interested in...

How are you sleeping?

How stressed are you?

How much time do you spend sitting?

What does your working day look like?

Are you moving enough — or perhaps doing too much?

What else is going on in your life?

Because bodies don't exist separately from the people living in them.

Sometimes the answer is simply that a muscle needs some attention.

And sometimes that tight, guarded body has been doing its best to cope with a life that's asking rather a lot of it.

That's why I treat the whole person, rather than simply chasing symptoms. 🌿

You might not need more rest. You might need to actually feel safe enough to rest.

There’s a difference. 🌿

You can lie on the sofa all evening and still have a nervous system that’s busy scanning, planning, worrying, replaying conversations and mentally working through tomorrow’s to-do list.

Your body has stopped.

But you haven’t.

Sometimes the answer isn’t another early night or a quiet weekend (lovely though those things are).

Sometimes we need to actively give the nervous system cues that it’s safe to downshift — slower breathing, warmth, gentle movement, time outside, therapeutic touch, connection with another human being.

Rest isn’t just the absence of doing.

It’s allowing ourselves to come out of doing mode in the first place.

And I think quite a lot of us have forgotten how 💜

The summer is officially over 😭 tiddler is back at school in year one and this week will be my first week back on 5 day working.

As well as having lots of time to play, both with my little boy and out in nature, I've had lots of time to reflect about the direction of my practice.

Some of you may have seen earlier on in the summer that I was playing around with the idea of reviving Zumba...well after a really tough year with some personal challenges, my body is basically saying no, and I'm not too proud to admit that I probably got a bit excited before thinking about the physiological feasibility of that 🤣🫣

So that's in the can.

However, one of the things that I'm hearing a LOT (and feeling myself) is that financially things are tough for everyone right now. Wages literally aren't keeping up with the rise in the cost of living, but at a time when I think people need access to therapies more than ever. So, I'm floating two ideas at the moment...

1) I'd like to start off a regular monthly workshop teaching safe therapeutic touch. Think partnering up with someone in a beautiful venue, a little guided meditation, some gentle breath work and then giving and receiving deeply relaxing massage (over clothing), therapeutic hair play and really just a chance to connect and relax with like minded people. In my mind this would be a way for people to access regular nervous system soothing work, without the price tag of coming to see me 1:1.

2) I'd like to start a WhatsApp group called 'Self Care for Survivors' for survivors of post-separation abuse. This would be largely a one way group where I share mindfulness practices, practical tips and techniques and peer support to women who are tired of trying to explain themselves in circles that don't fully understand. There's potential scope for organising monthly meet ups, opening up the group for wider peer support for a set window each week, but this is something I want to grow and evolve according to what people need. I'm thinking something as low as a fiver a month subscription.

If you've made it to the end of the long ass post, congratulations 👏🎉 and if you're interested in either of these, please let me know.

Just on my way back from the most beautiful reset in the lakes 🥰 only hopping online very briefly to let you know I've got a cancellation slot just come up for Thursday the 27th at 16:00.

We're fresh back from our family holiday and what a beautiful and much needed break it was ❤️

Still largely keeping off social media over the summer but wanted to let you know about a cancellation on the 13th at 12:30. First come, first served. WhatsApp me if you want it - 07999107788

Hope everyone is having a lovely summer so far!

Loads of love 💜✨

We're one week into the summer holidays and I'm already embracing the extra time I get to spend with my best mate ❤️

As most of you already know, I'm on reduced working hours for the summer and I'm also off for the next two weeks for more adventures and a family holiday with my Mam and Dad 🥰

This means I'm fully booked until September and clients who are having to wait longer than usual are already booking in. If you like continuity and to see me regularly, it might be a good time to book ahead.

I will only ever take payment for the next appointment you have booked, so don't worry, booking 2/3 appointments ahead won't cost you any more. It will just ensure you get the days and times you want at the frequency you want.

I've taken a bit of time off social media to focus on family matters and I'll likely be doing the same over the next couple of weeks. So if you want to reach me, WhatsApp is the best way: 07999107788

Hope you're all having a lovely summer so far!

Big love 💜✨

This week has felt really quite overwhelming, with minor health issues to deal with, a leaking washing machine that's wrecked a portion of the kitchen floor and some interpersonal challenges to boot, Saturday morning came and I just didn't want to do adult life at all.

But someone very wise said to me "just take the next step". And so I ate breakfast.

"Okay what's the next step now?" So I got in the shower.

Sometimes we need to put everything down and just take the next step.

The next step for me is joining an online mindfulness meditation practice group to restart my formal practice. It's been slipping for a long time and I don't feel anywhere near as centred.

So for anyone else who's had a hard week, just take the next step, and it's never too late to revive good habits.

Proms in the Park today was a real mood lifter, even if Daniel thought the music was 'old and boring' 🤣

Big Love 💜✨
