Hello to all of my page followers!

Sorry I have been a bit absent from my page recently. I have been suffering from sciatica since December 2024 due to a herniated disc in my lower back and this has made it very difficult to maintain my work and my life admin.

I hope that you enjoy my blog, if you have any questions at all you are very welcome to message me on this page. Or send me an email at: flourishingmk@outlook.com.

Sharing this as it pops up on my personal Facebook feed from time to time and often makes me laugh. I have been here myself on many pain flare up days.

Managing pain and fatigue are often issues brought by my clients who are living alongside a long term health condition. Counselling along side other medical and physical health management strategies can be an effective way to learn new coping strategies and talk through your feelings in a safe and non-judgemental space.

What a great step forward in terms of inclusivity on the highstreet for disabled people 👏

Hopefully Primark will be one of many highstreet shops that increase their provision of adaptive clothing at affordable prices 😀
