Reflections on the illness mindset and the power of our words Several times this week I heard people use the phrase ‘illness mindset’. I also had some coaching with a law of attraction coach, who pointed out to me how unhelpful it is to use the words ‘I can’t’. Now, at first, I was really … Read more
This week, in my coaching group, we did a brief meditation together to help identify the next most powerful but easy, small step that you can take for your wellbeing. I’m a firm believer that we have an inner wisdom that will guide us to do what is best for our holistic wellbeing and all … Read more
This week I had a rather nasty crash, unusual in the severity of symptoms. For various reasons, which I’ll talk about in a minute, I didn’t immediately surrender, as I usually do. When I did, it made such a dramatic difference it made me want to stress the importance of surrender and share the story … Read more
This is a post I wrote especially for ProHealth’s Inspirational Corner and first appeared there in 2019. I’m a strong believer that our bodies have a wisdom; they know what they need to be as healthy as they possibly could be in this moment, and they will do their best to communicate that to us.

I’ve read many books and scientific articles and compared their … Read more
I apologise for being late posting this week. I put a lot of energy into posting twice for May the 12th last week, and connecting with other bloggers on the social media. I think quite a few of us overdid things! Since then I’ve found my creative motivation has waned a little. I just haven’t … Read more
Since my ‘crash’ forced me to face up to the fact that I’d been trying to do too much I’ve chosen to focus on looking after myself and taking it easy. Once again, I pushed it back up to the top of the priority list. I never deliberately removed it from prime position, I just … Read more
Good illness management takes a certain amount of self-discipline. Even getting out of bed in the morning requires discipline for me, when just about every day I wake up feeling awful. In the knowledge that I will feel better once I get through my morning routine, I resist the urge to stay in bed and … Read more
