If you are exercising outside in this biting cold at the moment, you need Skin Food!

You need something thats going to protect your skin from the elements.

Sleep is one of the pillars to supporting our health and wellbeing.

By sleeping well we give our bodies its optimal chance to rest, recharge, repair and renew our bodies cells and tissues including skin, blood and brain cells and also muscles.

However during the menopause, our sleep can become disrupted due to our hormonal changes or blood sugar crashes.We may also feel like we have slept well through the night but still wake up feeling lack lustre and depleted of energy.

The winter months are upon us.

Some people experience low mood, anxiety, overwhelm andduring the darker months and the feeling of isolation can also set in.

It’s also an opportunity to slow down, rest and restore.

Here are some self care tips to lift your mood during the darkest season of the year

I've lost the battle again!

This year it's only between me and my daughter.

My son has lost interest in the festive season.....apart from the presents of course!

Wrinkles, fine lines, crinkles, furrow, lines, crows feet...call them what you like, we ALL get them.

Like it or not its part of our ageing process or should we call it our living process?

Because they only appear as proof that we are still alive.

Hot flushes are one of the many symptoms that can arrive with menopause.

For some women they are mild, but for others they are constant and can take over their lives.

I'm excited to share that I am holding a new event.

The Skin Nourishing Cafe

Come and join me for 2 fabulous hours of mindfulness at the Skin Nourishing Cafe.

It is World Reflexology Week from 18th - 22nd September.

To acknowledge this I thought it was time I re introduced myself!

What is Reflexology & Why Is It So Good For You?

Reflexology is the theory that the foot provides a map for the body.  During a treatment the reflexologist applies pressure to reflex points that correspond to particular parts of the body including glands, limbs, skeleton and organs.This creates a deep sense of relaxation allowing any stress or tension to be released, promoting natural healing and improves your sense of wellbeing.

In celebration of World Reflexology Week I am offering 10% off these GORGEOUS

Organic Essential Oil Room Sprays.

Which will you choose?

 Plantar Fasciitis is a common yet painful condition of the foot around the heal and bottom of your foot.

It is caused by inflammation of the fascia the muscle, bones and nerves in your foot.

Why am I writing about manifesting?  And what does it have to do with movement?

We all know how good for us exercise and movement is.

It improves our heart health, our muscle tone and gives us a boost to our endorphins and feel good factor plus so much more.

Walking.  We all do it.  Some more than others.Many of us have an app which tells us how many steps we are doing each day.

But what are the benefits to walking?Does it matter if it's walking around the office or do we need to get some countryside stomps in too?

Here's what I discovered.

There are ways to regulate your nervous system when you are feeling stressed, anxious or nervous and self soothing is one of them.

Have the winter blues set in for you yet?

I'm not going to lie,  The sky was pitch black when the alarm went off this morning.For a moment I thought it was the dead of night, then realised we are in the darkest months of the year which for some can feel quite oppressive and isolating.

I went on a Breath, Body, Mind fundamentals training over the weekend.

It highlighted to me how underestimated something as simple as breathing can have a big impact on our health.

By simply paying attention to our breath with intention.
