Yesterday we sat in the most magical circle
Held so beautifully by Emma, Marianne and Ali.
We laid underneath the stunning eucalyptus tree, and felt rooted to the earth below us, we were taken on a journey of self discovery. Setting intentions, releasing our emotions, crystal healing, treated to a Celtic foot spa and given the most relaxing reiki. We were treated with warm tea and delicious sweet treats and then finished with a shamanic drum guided meditation.
I literally floated out of this tranquil place……
I cannot recommend this enough. Head to the insta page and find out more.

Last week we booked an overnight stay at the Ockenden Manor hotel and spa. Nestled in the glorious Cuckfield countryside, and a stones through from a quaint high street, with lovely shops and great pubs and cafes. The hotel is steeped in history, and we stayed in one of the cosy rooms, in the oldest part of the hotel. The bed was comfortable and they even provided complimentary homemade biscuits on arrival. The spa is a short stroll next to the hotel and I was blown away by the facilities on offer. The tranquil spaces to chill and the overall atmosphere are second to none. It’s the most relaxed I’ve felt in a very long time. The staff in both the hotel and spa were incredible and the homemade scones and breakfast banana bread, were truly outstanding. I highly recommend a stay here and we cannot wait to return ♥️

Three weeks ago I had emergency surgery to remove my gallbladder. I had been in and out of hospital for weeks leading up to this, starting with the scariest day of my life, when I woke in excruciating pain, thinking I was having a heart attack. Scans, blood tests, and copious amounts of morphine later, I was diagnosed with gallstones and gallbladder sludge. You could have knocked me down, and the consultants, as I was generally pretty healthy. In hindsight though, this couldn’t have been further from the truth. Energetically, I have been suppressing my emotions and deep trauma for Years. Hiding behind the daily advocating and my ever increasing workload, I became fearful of where I had disappeared to and I just didn’t have the energy to find myself. So I started feeling rough, had days where I chose to eat foods that didn’t serve me, stopped sleeping and exercising, and I slowly sunk into a depression. Weekly migraines engulfed me and then bam, this.
I’m always about transparency, and trying to be as honest as I can be, even if I struggle to be honest with myself. So this post is me holding myself accountable, to always put myself first, to make sure i do all the things to ensure my health and happiness is forefront in my life, and to never forget how to truly love myself.
This has been life changing for me and I am grateful for the challenge and wake up call it has given me. So, welcome to my life without a gallbladder, which means a whole new way of eating, amongst other things, and the start of the new chapter in my life…….

Huge shoutout to the drs, nurses and consultants who looked after me. We are so blessed to have the NHS.
To my family and friends, I just cannot thank you enough for holding me through what was the darkest time in my life. I will never forget the hospital & home visits and sheer love I have felt from those I love.
words cannot express how much I love you. Thank you for looking after B and making me feel so safe.
Nurse Evans (my mum) thank you for looking after me. Love you so much. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

Days like these….
It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the daily sludge of stuff, isn’t it. Our lives are so colourful and totally go against the grain of what I imagined, but I feel so grateful for the lessons I’m learning. Throwing away the parenting rule book and living each day with an open heart and mind, has saved me. Knowing that tomorrow may be different, and that that is absolutely ok.
Today was just beautiful. Blue skies, rock pools and one to one with my son. It just doesn’t get better than this…..

Simple swaps, that’s what I’m all about and If like me, you have to watch your blood sugar spikes, then these almond flour cookies, are just the ticket.

How does your soul sing to you? I’ve spent Years trying to answer that question and searched high and low to find out what could help me. Constantly reading about self care and how we owe it to ourselves to care for ourselves. But what worked for others, just didn’t sit with me. I almost made myself more stressed trying to figure it all out.
It was sometime after Christmas when I guess you could say I had an epiphany of sorts. I had bought a cold plunge for Joel and didn’t think much more about it. One morning, I thought, I’m getting in. I managed 16 seconds. The cold hit me like a bullet and my nether regions felt like they were going to drop off 🤣 But something happened that day, I felt absolutely incredible afterwards, my dopamine levels were through the roof and my head had cleared. I had been suffering with extreme joint pain, depression, fatigue, night sweats and headaches, I’d put weight on and just felt so low. It was a miserable place to be….The next day, I plunged again, for 3 minutes….the next, 5 minutes, and so on. The times may have changed, but the way I feel post plunge, has always remained the same…it’s my thing, and it’s changed my life.
