Total Mind and Body Wellness

 ENTER the dragon is my favourite of all Bruce Lee films, and if you haven't seen it, put it on your 'must watch' list because it is truly epic. I've named today's blog after a line from the film, and I use it a lot, because we do spend way too much time thinking, or should I say, over-thinking? HOW often do you go outside wearing the wrong clothing because the weather forecast on the phone told you it would be a certain way? Did you go outside and check the weather yourself? I know it's getting harder to predict the weather these days with all the cloud seeding that is going on, but did you even go outside and see how warm or cold it was? DO you rely on your gut instinct these days? Or do you just believe what you are told? The way social media is controlling our minds gives me cause to worry that too many people are believing what they read and not enough people are trusting their own judgement on things. You read that a restaurant has amazing reviews, so you ...

 Some may say this is too soon to be posting about going Skydiving, but this blog isn't about that alone, it's about taking the spirit of adventure with you wherever you are, it's about having an adventure every day if you can. I am also covering this topic in my podcast next Monday, I do sometimes double up if it's a topic I feel strongly about, so feel free to listen too if you fancy it, it will be on my 'All the things' podcast on Spotify. When was your last adventure? Was it a big one? Or just an average every day adventure? What do I mean by average every day? Well, I count my morning dog walk as a bit of an adventure sometimes, you never know who you will meet or what will happen, will the tide be right for dog walking? I'm so out there, I don't even check the tide times, sometimes! My last BIG adventure was the Skydive I did with my husband in May, you can read all about it in my blog about it if you fancy? There are photos too! But I do like to f...

 TODAY I want to chat a little about my business, because ultimately, that's what this blog is about, promoting what I do, but not so blatantly as today, so be warned, this is more of a sales post today, but I also hope that it will make you think a bit too. MOST of my clients have an issue with their mental or physical health, that's why they come to me, to help fix their fitness, nutrition, mind with hypnotherapy or balance their body with reflexology, and so I have adopted a new stance recently by advertising an all-encompassing wellness check up service! I am NOT a medical professional, but I am a nutritionist, hypnotherapist and I understand how the body and nutrition work together, and how the mind controls all of this and at the same time is controlled by it. RECENTLY a client came to me because their GP did not have time to discuss their nutritional needs in an appointment, even though the appointment was because of a high cholesterol blood test result. We know that GP...

TODAY'S blog is inspired by the wonderful book, and now film written by Raynor Winn, and the lessons that could be learned from the story. I have also recorded a podcast to this effect for the non-readers that will be out on Monday 9th June on 'All the things' podcast on Spotify. The Salt Path, a journey that Raynor and her husband Moth took, when their lives went wrong to the max. It's a tale of loss and love, of freedom and growth. And there really are lessons within if you look, and maybe the lessons you see are different to those that I saw, but here are my thoughts. (photos taken from some of my runs on the SW coastpath) Lesson one - NEVER GIVE UP! They lost their house, Moth had an extreme medical diagnosis but they didn't fold, they took that information and followed a dream. They literally had nothing, yet carried on regardless. Lesson two - FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS. One of my favourite things to repeat on a weekly basis, LIFE IS SHORT, do all the things you can a...
