Andrew’s story: Learning to Live with Voices and Support Others.

Andrew shares how peer support and understanding schizophrenia helped him live with voices and support others in mental health care.

Today is World Hearing Voices Day., 14/09.

People who hear voices, or have other sensory experiences, and who may have a diagnosis of psychosis or schizophrenia are so often stigmatised or misunderstood.

Too often, the Voices community is portrayed through fear or stereotypes, when in reality it is made up of people finding their way, living with challenges, and seeking connection like anyone else.

It is a great privilege for me to know some amazing people who face such immense challenges and yet still show their humanity and humour.

This webpage will offer a bit more information if you’d like to investigate:

On 14th September, we mark World Hearing Voices Day by raising awareness, challenging stigma and promoting understanding of hearing voices.

Had some time with my daughter this weekend. We went to my happy place today. My idea of heaven! Always fills my soul with joy.
What do you do to replenish?

Today’s blog post. The caesarean rates are rising. What does that mean for birthing women?

I’ve seen so many stories in VBAC groups over the past 20 years where a woman’s first caesarean began with being told she had to have an induction.

This is why making informed choices around interventions is so important. Feeling able to ask questions, explore alternatives, and decide what feels right for you can be both empowering and protective.

When women feel out of control, that’s often when birth trauma takes root.

If you’re looking for reliable information, I always recommend resources like AIMS and Sarawickham.com both of which provide evidence-based guidance.

✨ If your previous birth left you feeling traumatised, I can support you in healing those experiences. And if you’re preparing for your next birth, I can help you explore your options and work out what feels like the right birth on the day.

📩 Get in touch if you’d like to know more.

Induction and the chance of a caesarean: what’s the evidence? Many factors can affect the chance of induction of labour leading to caesarean birth. This page explains why the evidence is not as clear as is often stated. www.aims.org.uk/information/item/induction-and-caesarean

Today we heard the sad news that the pioneering French obstetrician Michel Odent has died at 95. He introduced the concept of birth pools and home-like birthing rooms and continuously worked to promote the importance of environment to physiological birth. I last saw him speak 9 years ago and got one of his books signed. It was always a delight to listen to him.

Some of the things you’re carrying… might not even be yours.

If you’ve ever found yourself repeating family patterns, even ones you swore you’d break, you’re not alone.
✨ It’s not a lack of willpower.
✨ It’s not your fault.
✨ It’s your nervous system doing what it learned to do.

But healing is possible.
In this week’s blog, I explore intergenerational trauma, why it gets passed on, and how deep change is possible, starting with you.

I also share a personal story from my own QEC journey of releasing a pattern passed down through three generations.

This work is tender, but it’s powerful, and you don’t have to do it alone.

Gratitude.

I usually go for a swim on a Monday morning. Today the pool was fairly busy for lane swimming. I had done a few lengths noticing a woman I hadn’t seen before.

But I’m only seeing her face and her hair is slicked back, while I’m not wearing my glasses. Without them things can have softer edges.

As I reached the end of the lane and turned to start going back, the women came behind me and gave me a lovely smile, saying hello. I realised I know her, although I haven’t seen her in person for many years. She’s not a friend as such. She was my daughter’s gymnastics coach.

We had a chat at the pool side, as she asked me how I am, I shared what my daughter is doing now and asked about the coach’s business.

What really struck me what that a person I didn’t expect to be all that interested in me took the time to make contact and have a wee chat before we both reusumed our swims.

I didn’t expect to feel so good about such a simple interaction. It was such a lovely reminder about the need for human connection.

I typically can be so lost in my thoughts when out and about that I probably miss many chances to say hello to others.

With gratitude, I intend to look for chances to say hello more often rather than rushing by in my own world.

What have you been grateful for today?

Sometimes understanding your trauma isn’t enough. You may have talked, explored, journaled, maybe even done therapy, but the same patterns and beliefs keep showing up.

That’s where QEC (Quantum Energy Coaching) can help. It works directly with the subconscious, using neuroscience-based tools to gently shift beliefs and support real change, without reliving past hurts.

This week’s blog explores how it works, the science behind it, and what real clients have experienced after QEC.
