Gambling, toxic air fresheners, dishwasher tablets and cleaning products... what is going on?! It infuriates me that we fall for this BS we are subjected to day in and day out on the radio and on TV.

Silence

I've been silent on this IG machine for a long time, very happily getting on with my 'real' life off the grid.

I have divorced, moved house, travelled, planned, aged (!), chatted (a LOT), met lots of new people, explored the past and finally started to look forward to what's in store for my future and the future of Sankalpa Health. Let's say there is so much truth in not knowing how strong you are until you have to be!

A podcast with my best friend all about life after divorce, how to navigate relationships, the grieving process etc

Retreats centred on healing - emotionally, physically and mentally - blending the art of science and holistic therapies for REAL, actionable advice. Think blood tests, biodynamic testing, salt water therapy, massage, discussion, education, yoga, breath work... oh yeh baby, it's happening.

Health presentations - obviously these can only be local to where I live, but this is something I've been planning for many years and started to do when I lived in Falmouth, but put on the back burner. Topics to include hormonal health, weight loss, mental health.

I think thats enough!

Please message if you're interested in any of the above or have a question 😍

Are we still using hash tags?! Please tell me 🤷🏼‍♀️🙄

We’ve succumbed to a chest infection chez nous. Antibiotics for the boys - doctor couldn’t believe anything was wrong with them as they were still bouncing around but once he looked at their throats and listened to their chests immediately prescribed because of the rattle … and the fact it’s been going on for a couple of weeks already 🫣

I hate antibiotics because of the knock on effects they cause but sometimes needs must, especially when they are asthmatic. What a palaver! First days off school since the beginning of term. 💊

Lots of natural yogurt, kefir, honey, fruit and warm, cooked vegetables for a few days. We did make a cheesecake yesterday 😆 which was delicious.

Stay safe in the weather later. 🤞🏻💨🌬️

This resonates with me a lot 🫶🏻

If I’ve learned anything from life,
it’s that sometimes,
the darkest times can bring us
to the brightest places.
I’ve learned that the most
toxic people can teach us
the most important lessons;
that our most painful struggles
can grant us the most necessary growth; and that the most
heart-breaking losses of friendship
and love can make room for the
most wonderful people.
I’ve learned that what seems
like a curse in the moment
can actually be a blessing,
and that what seems like the
end of the road is actually just
the discovery that we are meant
to travel down a different path.
I’ve learned that no matter
how difficult things seem,
there is always hope.
And I’ve learned that no matter
how powerless we feel or
how horrible things seem,
we can’t give up.
We have to keep going.
Even when it’s scary,
even when all of our strength
seems gone,
we have to keep picking ourselves
back up and moving forward,
because whatever we’re battling
in the moment, it will pass,
and we will make it through.
We’ve made it this far.
We can make it through
whatever comes next.

Truth.

My mental health has been fluctuating wildly for a few years now, with normality and happiness interspersed with absolute wretchedness and despair. Those closest to me know this and have been incredibly patient and supportive of the process. 💛

Is it depression?
I have been diagnosed with depression a number of times, but refuse to take antidepressants because of the side effects (I took them while at university and they made me completely numb, physically and emotionally). I take 5HTP every day, and have found mushroom extracts quite effective too - like they create more space in my overactive brain. 💛

Is it perimenopause?
Maybe, but unlikely - my hormone levels seem OK and I only stopped breastfeeding 18 months ago - my lows have been there since I was pregnant with Freddie (who is now 8). 💛

Is it…?
Is it just me?! I think I have ADHD, I’m a people pleaser, I am verrrrry hard on myself, I find it hard to trust people and sabotage relationships when I think I’m going to get hurt…
I overanalyse every little detail, often coming to the wrong conclusion. 💛

How am I coping?
I write notes to myself, reminding me that the low episodes don’t last forever, that they’re temporary and often not real.
I talk to the friends that I trust and who know that it’s just one part of me; often people can’t understand how you can be lying on the floor crying one day and able to go for coffee the next but being able to carry on is just one part of it. It doesn’t mean you didn’t feel like dying the day before, it’s an acceptance of the fact you’re going to face the music and get on with it.
I play music that makes me happy.
I do yoga.
I exercise or go for a walk.
I remind myself of all the things I am grateful for.

Then I pick myself up and hope that I do better and try to stop it happening again until inevitably, something knocks me again in a few days or hopefully a few weeks time.

IT IS EXHAUSTING, LONELY, TERRIFYING but very very real. And the more I talk about it, the more I hear of others that feel the same.
