Stress Less & Wellness

29/08/2025

This week I finally achieved something I’ve been wanting to do for so long. I qualified as a meditation teacher 🧘‍♀️

I realised I’ve been a bit quiet on here lately, but life has been busy! Between carrying out treatments, planning the renovation of the new shop, studying (more to come on that soon 👀) and keeping three little humans happy (including one who still breastfeeds through the night) it’s been non stop. Thank goodness for my supportive husband 😆

Since returning from maternity leave, I’ve mostly been working evenings and weekends. But from next week, Summer (can you believe she’s just turned one? 🥹) starts nursery two days a week, which means I can now offer Wednesday and Thursday daytime appointments 🙌

I had planned a price increase for September, but I’m still finalising my new treatment list and I’ve delayed this until November. I’ll be posting the updated list very soon 💆‍♀️

Thank you for bearing with me through all the busyness, I just wanted to share a little update with you all.

Hope you all have a lovely weekend.

Science is catching up ✨

In a surprising breakthrough, scientists have discovered that human cells can actually hear sound and respond to it. Research shows that certain cells detect vibrations and convert them into biological signals, influencing their behaviour and function.

This groundbreaking finding challenges previous assumptions that cells operate independently of auditory cues, revealing a previously unknown layer of communication within the body. Cells exposed to specific sound frequencies demonstrated changes in gene expression, growth patterns, and even signalling pathways, suggesting sound could one day be used to influence health at a cellular level.

The discovery opens exciting possibilities for medicine and biotechnology. Future therapies could harness sound waves to promote healing, improve cellular function, or even target diseases with unprecedented precision. Scientists are now exploring how different types of sound affect various cell types and how this knowledge could lead to non-invasive treatments.

Understanding that our cells can “hear” may revolutionise the way we approach health and disease, offering innovative tools for therapies and preventive medicine. The human body may be more attuned to its environment than we ever imagined.

Comments from my last client of the day, who had the 3 Hour Pamper 🥹🫶🏻

Not sure I agree with the famous bit 🫣

But seriously 🫶🏻

I genuinely mean it when I say that I have the BEST clients.

I feel so so lucky.

It makes such a difference going to work and getting to interact with lovely, friendly and kind people.

Thank you 🫶🏻

It’s key handover day 🥹 🔑

The breathwork.
The head to toe muscle relaxation.
The mindfulness exercise to bring you into the present moment.

Why have I started doing this at every visit?

It’s not just a routine. It’s intentional.

Yesterday, a client told me they’ve started using the breathing exercises we do before their treatments, at home and at work.

Last week a client told me they use the mindfulness exercise before bed.

THAT is why I do it.

When I guide you through these steps at every session, I’m not just helping you relax in the moment. I’m giving you tools you can carry into the rest of your life.

Each time we practise them together, you become more familiar, more confident, and your body starts to associate these techniques with switching off.

The extended exhales and body awareness help to signal to your nervous system that it’s time to relax.

You are safe, and it’s okay to soften.

Over time, this can help shift you out of a stressed, reactive state and into a more calm, balanced place, both during the treatment and in everyday life.

The more we repeat this, the easier it becomes to access that same sense of calm, whether you’re in my treatment room or in the middle of a busy day.

So if you find yourself slowing down your breathing, noticing your body, or gently pulling your attention back to the present, it’s working.

And I couldn’t be happier 🥰
