This is truly inspiring! We should all strive to rise above our circumstances, but let’s also find joy in where we are.🤩

His return to TV in a recurring guest role in the comedy-drama series “Shrinking,” where he plays someone who has Parkinson's, is his most substantial role in years. One of the best things Michael J. Fox did for the Parkinson's disease community — besides starting his foundation — was to go back to work.

There are days when keeping going feels especially hard, any day of the week. Show yourself kindness and find that reason to give yourself a well-deserved pat on the back—it will be there!

Here's a reminder that isn't real! 💙

No one day can define how we feel, especially if you're living with a health condition.

However you're feeling, that's okay. Remember that each day is about doing what works for you 🤗

Up to 80% of people will experience non-specific back pain. Most of the time, the body can recover just by keeping active. But when multiple mechanical factors are involved, exercise is often the only answer.

So why don’t people exercise?
1️⃣ Fear
Back pain is scary. People worry they’ll make it worse, so they stop moving. The problem? Rest often leads to more pain when movement resumes — creating a vicious cycle.
2️⃣ The mind is powerful
Beliefs like “my back is damaged” or “movement is dangerous” increase pain and reduce confidence. The brain tries to protect — but movement is usually safe and helpful.

So what else stops people?
3️⃣ Bad advice – “Rest until it goes away” sounds safe… but often delays recovery.
4️⃣ Past flare-ups – One bad experience can make people avoid exercise forever.
5️⃣ Lack of guidance – People don’t know what exercises are safe or how to start.

👉 Backs are strong. Movement is safe. The right exercise builds confidence and reduces pain.

💬 Have I missed any reasons?
Please comment below — I’d love to hear your thoughts and experiences.🤗

This topic is so important. A strong mind can significantly help when dealing with MS or other neurological disorders.

Living with MS isn’t just physical; the emotional and psychological impact can be just as real – and often harder to talk about.

On 11 February at 7 pm (UK time), join us for a free Overcoming MS webinar exploring the psychological side of living with MS, as part of our new Hot Topics in MS webinar season.

We’ll explore:

🧠 Anxiety, stress and low mood
🌫️ Invisible symptoms like fatigue and brain fog
🧘 Practical tools such as mindfulness, grounding and self-compassion
🤝 The power of community and peer support.

🗓️ 11 February 2026 | ⏱️ 60 minutes | 💻 Online

Hosted by Gina Beach, with Program Facilitator and Health Coach Laura Crowder, this session will offer a supportive, non-judgmental space – including lived experience, practical strategies and time for audience Q&A.

This webinar is open to people living with MS, as well as family, friends and supporters.

This isn’t an uplifting story to share, necessarily… but it needs to be said.

Everyone we meet in life plays a part in shaping who we are. Some people challenge us and push our limits, helping us grow stronger. Others may take advantage of us, teaching us the importance of boundaries and self-respect. Those who love us give us support, comfort, and happiness. There are also people who teach us important lessons, helping us learn and understand ourselves better. Whether the experience is good or bad, each person leaves us with something valuable.

I love meeting new people and hope that my impact on their lives is mostly positive.😬😉
Often, my role is that of a teacher, especially when it comes to movement and understanding the body. By sharing what I know, I hope to help others feel stronger, more capable, and more connected to themselves.💪
