Need a nudge to do something great for yourself?

I’ve created a short in-person course starting at on Tuesday 23/9 (11am-Noon)

Avoid confusion and decision fatigue and rescue the rest of 2025 feeling good about yourself!

I have 3 places left for this 5 week course that covers key pillars of our wellbeing which affect our day to day enjoyment of life.

☘️ SLEEP
☘️ ENERGY
☘️ NUTRITION
☘️ STRESS
☘️ EXERCISE

with a bonus week with guest speaker .duckworth - Fertility and Hormone Health expert.

I’m keeping this group small for a deeper learning experience and each week will involve an action point that we agree on.

If you’re done with diets and disinterested doctors then grab this opportunity today. I have 3 places left.

Course Fee is £149 and includes a weekly cuppa.

DM the words “BEAR HEALTH NECESSITIES” and I’ll pop over the course details and payment links.

One simple thing eveyone can easily do to improve their health today.

Remove the lid from your takeaway coffee or tea before you take a sip.

I’m partial to a cuppa from a local coffee shop or Pret but I make sure that I remove the lid when I drink.

Microplastics are in so many places and find their way into our bodies through air, food, and water, lodging themselves in our tissues subsequently disrupting our health.

Microwaving meals? Take the time to transfer to glass or porcelain before you warm up.

Get rid of all plastic containers for food storage - use glass.

Carry your own portable coffee cup and ask outlets to transfer to this. The inner part of takeaway cups are also plastic lined to keep heat and shape.

Do a quick audit on clothing. Is there too much acrylic and polyester in your wardrobe? Start swapping out for natural fibres.

Look at the quality of your personal care and cleaning products. They are full of microplastics but alternates are out there.

If you make time for your health you won’t be forced to make time for illness. 💚

This is so beautifully written. The world feels like a rapidly changing place right now. ❤️

I am an over-thinker, my mind is rarely quiet.

And I have learned over the years to feed it before it’s hungry, lest it become ravenous and impulsive.

I’ve also learned that as with most healthy organs, it needs a fairly clean diet.

I whittled out the gossip, the click-bait news and the salacious stories the media was serving up daily and replaced it with a balance of beauty, hope, goodwill, fun and laughter - and plenty ‘real-talk’ of course, to remind it we are not alone.

But this clean diet I live on doesn’t shy away from life’s sadness or difficult topics, as you may think. Not at all.

In fact, I really go there … but with real information as my recipe, no dramatics, and always, always, adding a side dish of comfort and hope.

We were never meant to know all of life’s troubles all of the time, you see. No human condition was ever supposed to worry for ALL human conditions.

It is too much.

So we must filter, prioritise and arrange the world’s worry, in order that we don’t become overwhelmed with hopelessness, misery and fear, becoming no use to anyone, let alone ourselves.

We must allow ourselves more ‘actionable stress’, than ‘non-actionable stress’ (stress we cannot do anything towards). Studies clearly show that actionable stress is far less dangerous, simply because we can take steps to overcome the issues, we can do something towards it. And your nervous system needs to do something to feel safe and useful.

So, my tip for anyone with a never-quiet mind is to be picky with your diet.

Be choosy over what worry is for you to take on and what worry you truly cannot do a thing about.

And if your mind runs dark as well as loud, you need to seek calm, intentionally. Seek beauty, deliberately. Seek out the joy, hope and light. Use it to shine on the heartbreaking stuff and show hope amidst the chaos.

If we take it all in, every day, these little boats of ours will go under.

Fill your boat with what you can fit, and be safe.

The world looks like it is getting worse every day, I know. But I think it is because we can see so much more now.

So choose what you see. Save what you can. Keep seeking light.

And love. Always.

We remain blind to so many beauty products and the chemicals they contain. A cocktail of carnage in our bodies. Keep it clean or keep it to a minimum. 💚

The secret to your glossy gel manicure? An ingredient called Trimethylbenzoyl Diphenylphosphine Oxide (TPO). It’s what makes polish set fast and stay shiny for weeks, but as of September 1, it’s officially banned in the EU.

UK salons are still using it for now, but a ban is on the horizon here too.

Tap the link in the comments for everything you need to know, from why it’s been outlawed and whether it’s safe in the meantime to when it could come into effect in the UK.

With the internet awash with health advice, I narrow it down to who I pay attention to and who explains new health findings in a clear and easy manner.

Check out this podcast on Metabolism with Dr. William Li - it’s first class.

I love a bit of “outside the box” thinking.

When someone says “no, we can’t help” or “there’s nothing more that we can do for you, be it health, a job, an application, should we really accept that?

Healthy rebuttals can take us in a direction beyond our dreams. The key ingredient is “belief” but belief attached to measured enquiry, not desperation.

All too often I hear quotes from GP’s telling people to “live with it, accept it, just be happy with what you have”

Er, no.

Our NHS has some wonderful people but many are hogtied with administration and outdated recommendations.

I’ve seen the evidence on diet sheets and it makes for poor reading.

Your innate power has been covered up by modern “fast fixes”

At some point we have to ask the question , “how can I help myself?”

Reclaim “better”

How well do you catch that inner critic?

We all do it, without even thinking.

But how does this actually help other than reinforce untruths?

Working with my latest client, she confided that she speaks badly to herself often, a narrative that she’s inherited from her father.

She never stopped to question his behaviour and continued the theme.

Here’s the thing, we don’t challenge enough but take on other peoples ways of being particularly parents, or others in authority.

The next time you catch yourself “telling” yourself something that’s demeaning. STOP. Ask yourself “how can I cheerlead myself to a better way?”

The words “although, despite and yet” remove the permanency of the problem that we face.

Be a solution-seeker and watch your existence change. You’ll become a radiator instead of a drain!

Give it a go and feel the glow. 🌟
