Choking isn’t rare yet sadly, We don’t talk about it enough and it’s understandable because it’s not a nice thing at all

Last night I had the worst panic attack of my life!
While eating my Evening Meal I started to choke!!!

Except I wasn’t Actually choking 🤔

I could breath but something (Onion) was stuck and I panicked for about an hour I felt awful I was shaking and I realised in that moment just how Horrific it must be for the person who is choking and can’t breath 🥹

Turns out I had not got onion stuck I had burnt my mouth and I had something called Globus pharyngeus

It’s the sensation of having a lump or something stuck in your throat, even if your airway isn’t actually blocked.

Thankfully I am OK it just scared me and made me appreciate even more than I already do how important being Choke Awareness is ♥️

Here are a few things to think about;

📌 It’s one of the leading causes of accidental death in children under five.

📌 Adults over 65 are at higher risk, especially if they have swallowing difficulties. Around 1 in 10 people over 65 have some form of swallowing impairment.

📌 People with neurological conditions like stroke, Parkinson’s, dementia or cerebral palsy are more vulnerable.

📌 People with learning disabilities are several times more likely to choke.

📌 Not every choking incident is loud or obvious. Silent choking happens.

If you run a nursery, school, care home, café, restaurant, pub, hotel, event space, or community centre ANYWHERE that Food is Available this applies to you 💛

Food safety isn’t just about allergens or hygiene ratings. It’s about:

📌 Recognising the signs (it’s not always loud and Obvious, silence is serious)

📌 Knowing how to respond (First Aid Training, LifeVac)

📌 Understanding which foods are high risk (Hard Dry food, Small Round or Slippery food, Sticky Food, Chunks of Meat or Bread, Raw Veg, Cheese)

📌 Being aware of texture, portion (Cut food into small, manageable pieces, Chew slowly and thoroughly. Avoid talking or laughing while eating, Take small sips of water with dry foods)

Being aware isn’t about fear. It’s about being prepared. It’s about protecting the people who trust you.

“We’ve never had an incident” is not a plan.

Making changes to prevent choking is valuable but when Choking does Happen being Prepared is First Aid Training, Awareness about LifeVac and being Prepared Most importantly Prevention, all of it saves lives.

When food is part of your business, so is responsibility.

How often do you actually get a good night’s sleep?

I don’t mean the “I was in bed for 8 hours” kind.
I mean the deep, heavy, proper rest where you wake up and think wow, I was gone. 😴😴😴😴

And when you do get that kind of sleep do you dream more?

Really vivid ones, Strange ones.
The sort that stay with you all day 🤔

When you drop into deep sleep, especially REM sleep, that’s when the dreaming really happens. REM is the stage where your brain starts sorting, filing, and processing everything you’ve picked up, conversations, worries, background news, old memories, things you didn’t even realise affected you 😶‍🌫️

It’s like your mind’s night shift.🧠

So if you suddenly start dreaming more, it doesn’t mean something is wrong.
It often means you’re actually reaching the deeper stages of sleep properly.

And dreams? They’re rarely literal.

They’re emotional & Symbolic and somewhat Protective.

If you’re dreaming about running, hiding, losing something, protecting someone it usually says more about what your nervous system is processing than about what’s going to happen.

Sometimes it’s stress.
Sometimes it’s growth.
Sometimes it’s your brain clearing old emotional clutter.

Some of us feel everything deeply.
So of course we dream deeply too.

I’d love to know When you finally get a proper night’s sleep, what happens in your dream world?

Mine goes from the absolute bonkers to boring mixed with a little adventure and I wake up feeling like I have a heavy head and spend the whole day wondering if any of it was real 🤔🫣😂😂😂

We all need a good sleep to help us function and have a productive day

Since I’ve had CPAP therapy I’ve experienced what real sleep is and helps keep me motivated through the day

Last nights dream was about LifeVac and he was a super Hero, I kid you not and all because I’d been thinking about it before sleep 😴

I might Try thinking about Johnathan Bailey instead 🙄🤗😳
