Action on Stroke Month takes place every May, marking a crucial time to raise awareness and support those affected by stroke. Unlike some awareness months, this event remains steadfast in the calendar, providing a consistent opportunity to educate and empower individuals about stroke prevention and recovery.

***Share this post to help promote Stroke awareness, symptoms and support****

Stroke is a medical emergency that can happen to anyone at any time, regardless of age or background. It occurs when the blood supply to part of the brain is interrupted or reduced, leading to damage and potentially life-changing consequences. Action on Stroke Month aims to shine a spotlight on this condition, highlighting the importance of knowing the signs and symptoms, as well as promoting preventative measures and support for survivors and their families.

Call 999 now if:
you think you're having, or have had a stroke
you've had signs of a stroke within the last 24 hours even if they've now stopped
Do not drive yourself to A&E.
The person you speak to at 999 will give you advice about what to do.

Most people don’t struggle because they lack willpower…
They struggle because they’re trying to figure it all out on their own.

? What to eat
? How much
? When to eat
? Why the scales aren’t moving

It’s confusing… and it’s exhausting.

That’s where guidance changes everything.

Having a plan.
Having structure.
Having someone in your corner who keeps you focused and accountable.

You stop guessing… and you start progressing.

If you’re ready to make things simpler (and actually see results), I’m here.

Just 1 Minute to Heal but if you’d like a more in depth session , as it’s my 70th birthday in May I’m offering a Reiki/ Silent Counselling session for just £40. 🤗 My gift to say thank you to The Universe and clients old, existing and new.

You do not always need an hour to help your body feel better — sometimes 1 minute is enough to shift your stress, energy, and recovery in the right direction. 🔥⏱️

Tiny actions can create powerful changes when done consistently. Here are simple 1-minute resets worth trying: 👇

🧠 Nervous System Reset
Slow nose breathing can help lower stress signals and bring your body into a calmer state.

☀️ Morning Energy Switch
A minute of natural morning light can help support mood, energy, and circadian rhythm.

🚶 Blood Sugar Stabilizer
A short walk after a meal can help your body handle blood sugar better and reduce that sluggish feeling.

💦 Instant Calm Trigger
Cold water on your face may help calm the nervous system and interrupt stress spirals.

🙆 Upper Body Release
A quick chest and shoulder stretch can open breathing space and relieve desk tension.

🎵 Vagus Nerve Boost
Humming or gentle vibration may help stimulate relaxation and help your body downshift.

🌿 Digestive Ease Signal
Deep belly breathing supports relaxation and may help digestion feel smoother.

🦵 Circulation Wake-Up
Ankle pumps and calf raises can boost circulation and reduce that stiff, “stuck” feeling.

🌍 Grounding Recharge
A minute of grounding can help you feel more calm, present, and connected.

Small habit. Big payoff. 💯
When life feels overwhelming, stop waiting for the “perfect routine” — start with just 1 minute.

Save this for your daily reset. 🔖✨ If you’d like a more in depth reset I’m offering Silent Counselling in May for just £40 per session 💥.I have 2 appointments left so why not get in touch?

**Mind-Blowing Sleep Facts You Didn’t Know**

Sleep is not wasted time — it’s when your body repairs, resets, and upgrades you. 🌙🔥

Most people think sleep is just “rest,” but your brain, hormones, muscles, skin, metabolism, and nervous system are all working behind the scenes while you’re out.

Here are some sleep facts that prove how powerful sleep really is: 👇

🧠 **Your brain cleans itself during sleep** — it helps clear waste and reset for the next day.
🤧 **You can’t sneeze while sleeping** — your reflexes slow down during deeper sleep.
⏰ **Dreams feel longer than they are** — minutes can feel like hours.
🛌 **Your body gets temporarily paralyzed** — this helps prevent you from acting out dreams.
🍽️ **Less sleep = more hunger** — poor sleep can increase cravings and hunger hormones.
❄️ **Body temperature drops** — a cooler room can help support better sleep.
🔥 **Left-side sleeping may help GERD** — it can reduce acid reflux for some people.
✨ **Poor sleep affects skin** — it can contribute to dullness and aging signs.
🚨 **Sleep loss is serious** — long-term lack of sleep can harm health and performance.
😴 **Naps boost focus** — even 20 minutes can help refresh the brain.
🌙 **Sleep is nature’s superpower** — protect it like your health depends on it.
🤗** Reiki can help rebalance, relax and enhance better sleep - I’m now taking bookings for June
Better sleep. Better mood. Better body. Better you. 💯

Tonight’s goal:
📵 Less screen time
🌡️ Cooler room
🧘 Slow breathing
⏰ Consistent bedtime
💤 7–9 hours when possible

Every night counts. Save this reminder. ❤️

📖 Read all about it!

We’re delighted to be featured in Women’s Health UK, where nutritionist Mark Gilbert, Nutritionist, BASc, RNutr, CISSN shares his recommended meal plan for people using GLP-1 medications, including our very own Very Berry Bites 🙌

With around 1.6 million people in the UK having used GLP-1s in the past year, awareness is growing around a critical issue:
👉 25–40% of weight lost on GLP‑1s can come from lean body mass, including muscle.

Because GLP‑1s suppress appetite, calorie intake can drop significantly, increasing the risk of nutritional gaps that impact:
💪 Strength
🔥 Metabolism
🧠 Long‑term health outcomes

That’s exactly where PortionIQ comes in.

We deliver smarter, science‑led nutrition for people using GLP‑1s and anyone managing their weight. Every product is designed with:
✔️ Optimal protein to support muscle maintenance
✔️ Fibre for fullness and gut health
✔️ Essential vitamins and minerals for energy and wellbeing
✔️ Precise portion control, without compromise

Launched earlier this year by Cambridge Nutritional Foods, the team behind The 1:1 Diet by Cambridge Weight Plan, PortionIQ builds on 40+ years of nutritional expertise, compliant manufacturing, and a trusted, evidence-based approach.

You Are More Than a Number ✨

Your weight does not define your worth, beauty, or capabilities. It’s just a number—not a measure of your value. But if your weight is something that makes you feel unhappy, uncomfortable, or holds you back from living the life you want, you have the power to change it.

Change doesn’t mean self-hate; it means self-care. It means choosing to take action because you deserve to feel confident, strong, and happy in your body.

If you want to make a change, do it for you—not for society, not for validation, but for your own happiness and well-being.

You are enough as you are, but you are also capable of becoming whatever version of yourself makes you feel your best 💫
If you’d like to deal with those emotional blockages that are preventing you from being your best version perhaps I can help with an EFT session.
I’ve a few appointments still available in May.
Get in touch for a , no obligation, chat if you are unsure. 🤗🪷

Great share from my friend and colleague Sarah at Balanced Health Bude.
She is a kinesiologist and can test for these imbalances . I’d highly recommend her.

In addition to a cognitive function test, which can pick up subtle changes in cognition many decades before a dementia diagnosis, there is value in having a blood biomarker test that can do something similar.

The perfect blood biomarkers to test for are those that, the changing of which, leads to less risk and actual benefit in those with cognitive decline. This is called a dynamic biomarker.

A recently published study in China - https://bit.ly/4mGmNji - looked at whether a person’s homocysteine level predicted their risk and degree of cognitive decline. They did this by taking Alzheimer’s disease patients classified as mild, moderate or severe on a cognitive test (MMSE) and compared them to healthy people of the same age.

As severity of Alzheimer’s went up, so did homocysteine. Those classified as mild had an average level of 16.8mcmol/l, those classified as moderate had a level of 21 and those classified as severe had a level of 26.

The authors conclude “These results demonstrate that serum Homocysteine level is a promising biomarker for assessing Alzheimer’s disease severity, offering significant potential for predictive assessment and monitoring in clinical practice.

The researchers gave all Alzheimer’s disease patients a standardized B vitamin intervention regimen for six months.

At the end of six months there had been a significant decrease in homocysteine levels in all three severity groups and their cognitive function, as measured on the MMSE scale, had improved. Also, their level of homocysteine at the start of the study correlated with their degree of improvement.

The authors conclude “This finding further supports the potential utility of serum Homocysteine as a dynamic monitoring indicator for tracking disease progression and treatment response in Alzheimer’s.” So, homocysteine is both a predictive biomarker and a dynamic biomarker in that lowering it results in cognitive and clinical improvement.

I sincerely hope that the growing and consistent evidence for homocysteine as a biomarker, and lowering it with B vitamins as a treatment, will be adopted by health care providers around the world.

Meanwhile, it is up to individuals to both test their cognitive function at https://bit.ly/40bnRma and also homocysteine level through a home-test kit, then take an appropriately dosed B vitamin supplement, such as Connect - https://www.holfordnutrition.com/product/patrick-holford-connect-60-capsules/

𝖧𝗈𝗐 𝖲𝗅𝖾𝖾𝗉 𝖧𝖾𝗅𝗉𝗌 𝗐𝗂𝗍𝗁 𝖶𝖾𝗂𝗀𝗁𝗍 𝖫𝗈𝗌𝗌

If you’re struggling to lose weight, your diet and exercise might not be the only things to focus on—your sleep could be the missing piece of the puzzle. Sleep plays a crucial role in weight loss, and not getting enough of it can make your journey much harder. Here’s why prioritizing rest is just as important as counting calories and hitting the gym.

1. Sleep Regulates Hunger Hormones

When you don’t get enough sleep, your body produces more ghrelin (the hormone that makes you feel hungry) and less leptin (the hormone that signals fullness). This imbalance can lead to increased cravings, overeating, and difficulty controlling portions.

2. Better Sleep = Better Food Choices

Lack of sleep can also impact your decision-making, making you more likely to reach for processed, high-sugar, and high-fat foods. When you’re well-rested, you have better self-control and are more likely to choose nutrient-dense foods that support your weight loss goals.

3. Sleep Boosts Metabolism

A well-rested body functions more efficiently, including your metabolism. Poor sleep can lead to insulin resistance, making it harder for your body to process carbohydrates and store fat properly. Over time, this can contribute to weight gain and difficulty losing fat.

𝖧𝗈𝗐 𝗍𝗈 𝖨𝗆𝗉𝗋𝗈𝗏𝖾 𝖸𝗈𝗎𝗋 𝖲𝗅𝖾𝖾𝗉 𝖿𝗈𝗋 𝖶𝖾𝗂𝗀𝗁𝗍 𝖫𝗈𝗌𝗌

• Stick to a sleep schedule – Aim for 7-9 hours of sleep each night.
• Create a bedtime routine – Wind down with relaxing activities like reading or meditation.
• Limit screen time – Reduce blue light exposure from phones and TVs before bed.
• Watch caffeine intake – Avoid coffee and energy drinks in the afternoon and evening.
• Keep your room cool and dark – Optimize your sleep environment for quality rest.

Prioritizing sleep isn’t just about feeling well-rested—it’s a key part of a successful weight loss journey. If you’re putting in the effort with your diet and exercise but not seeing results, take a closer look at your sleep habits. It might be the game-changer you need!

I’m a qualified , experienced Emoitiinal Freedom Technique Practitioner and Silent Consellor. Both use tapping to hel.

One of my most asked questions is, "What do the Tapping Points mean? How do they help?"

Here's what's actually happening under your skin: the tapping points are located on areas rich in mechanoreceptors — specialized sensory nerve endings that respond to pressure and touch. When you tap on these points, you're sending a direct calming signal through your nervous system, telling your brain, "You're safe."

One example: the Collarbone Point. In Chinese medicine, it's linked to the Kidney Meridian — a pathway associated with releasing deep-held fear and stagnation. But from a neuroscience perspective, tapping here activates those mechanoreceptors, which send signals that help downregulate your amygdala — the brain's stress alarm.

So it's not just energy work. It's not just mindfulness. It's a physical input that changes your body's stress response at the source.

Start rewiring your emotional responses with my help and support. This isn't just stress relief — it's stress reprogramming, with roots in both ancient wisdom and modern science.

If you’d like to chat to see if I may be able to help you please do get in touch.
No pressure and if you’d prefer not to have to go over everything again we can go silent! Yes! It does work 😉🤗

Emotional Freedom Technique and Silent Counselling are 2 therapies that I offer that can effectively help you to manage Chronic Pain, Fibromyalgia, Gut problems, long-Covid symptoms, Inflammation, Feelings of Fatigue, Sleep issues , ADHD symptoms, Stress, Anxious and Depressive thoughts and more.

Recent breakthrough studies link the symptoms of these conditions to nervous system dysregulation and impaired vagal response.

What exactly is the Vagus Nerve❓

The vagus nerve serves as a two-way communication channel between the brain and the heart, lungs and abdominal organs, plus structures such as the oesophagus and voice box, helping to control involuntary processes, including breathing, heart rate, digestion and immune responses. They are also an important part of the parasympathetic nervous system, which governs the “rest and digest” processes, and relaxes the body after periods of stress or danger that activate our sympathetic “fight or flight” responses.

🌟EFT and SC both work on body meridians.
🌟I use one or both therapies to target the vagus nerve and rebalance it.
🌟It’s non-invasive and sends messages to the brain via the vagus nerve, activating the parasympathetic nervous system.
🌟This could significantly help alleviate the symptoms mentioned above and improve overall well-being.
🌟2 or 3 sessions are recommended for best/ lasting results.

Key Benefits:

✔️ Clinically tested
✔️ Trusted by multiple international institutions and doctors
✔️ published clinical papers
✔️ 2M+ patient sessions
✔️ 0 serious adverse events reported in clinical trials

Experience the incredible benefits, backed by 30 years of research, development and clinical trials.
I’m based at beautiful Widemouth Bay and I have just 1 appointment left in April, a few appointments available in May and am taking bookings for June.
