My thoughts as Mind Body Chiropractor who has struggled with confidence and poor posture since her teens.

02/10/2025

Yesterday I did a post about confidence, posture and pain, how they are connected, and how you can shift your confidence and your experience of pain by changing your posture.

However, it’s not always that simple…if you are somebody who has spent a long time rounding through your upper back, shoulders and neck, your joints might be stiff and muscles tight around that posture, and your proprioceptors (the sensory nerves that tell your body where it is in space) may have forgotten how to move you into a more neutral posture.

So here are a few of my favourite yoga asanas to mobilise the joints, ease the muscles and open up the heart space.

This video is sped up, I would spend about 30-60 seconds in each posture, focusing on taking nice, deep, long inhalations and exhalations.

Give them a try and let me know what you think.

Confidence, posture and pain…

What is the connection and what can you do?

NB these are my opinions as a qualified Mind Body Chiropractor, and Psychotherapy Student….and from my own personal experience as someone with low confidence, poor posture and chronic pain.

Please do not take this as gospel.

My go to breath exercise when I am feeling stressed, anxious and thoughts are spiralling, with the scientific explanation behind it.

It’s also great for pain management.

Give it a try and let me know how you get on.

I find it most useful if I practice it regularly rather than just waiting until I start to panic to use it.

The reason for this is that it is easier to access and can help you regulate much more quickly, if you practice it regularly.

If you are feeling a little stressed, do this technique until you start to feel your heart slow and your mind and body calm.

If however you are doing this as a daily practice, start off at 1 minute and then build up to 5 minutes.

That’s all it takes.

To begin with, you might find yourself getting a little lightheaded as you are shifting your breathing pattern. If you do, don’t worry. Just take a break by returning to your normal rhythm, and then once you’re back, try again.

And as I say, this breath cycle is the ideal breath cycle we should be breathing day to day anyway when we are at rest. So the more you practice it, the more likely it will become your subconscious breathing pattern.

I don’t care if you don’t like water…that is not an excuse. Take care of you 🫶

Your body is made up of around 60–70% water, and every single system relies on it to function properly. When you’re dehydrated, your body struggles, and over time, this shows up as pain, fatigue, brain fog, poor digestion, dull skin, and even a dysregulated nervous system.

šŸ‘‰ Your musculoskeletal system needs hydration to keep joints lubricated and muscles functioning efficiently.

šŸ‘‰ Your nervous system depends on water for proper communication between brain and body.

šŸ‘‰ Your digestive system uses water to break down food and absorb nutrients.

šŸ‘‰ Your cardiovascular system relies on hydration to maintain blood volume and circulation.

šŸ‘‰ Your immune system is compromised when you’re dehydrated, making it harder to fight off illness.

šŸ‘‰ Your skin is one of the first places dehydration shows up, dryness, fine lines, dullness, breakouts.

šŸ‘‰ Even your mental health suffers, dehydration is linked to low mood, poor concentration, and anxiety.

The best part? Drinking enough water is one of the simplest, cheapest, and most effective ways to improve your health and wellbeing. No supplements, no gimmicks, just water.

✨ A good starting point: carry a reusable bottle with you, sip throughout the day, and flavour it with lemon, cucumber, or herbs if plain water feels boring.

Your body is always communicating with you, don’t ignore thirst cues. This one small habit has a ripple effect across your entire system.

šŸ’¬ Do you drink enough water daily? Or is this the reminder you needed?

Here’s the truth ā¬‡ļø

Chiropractic isn’t a magic wand. I don’t ā€œfixā€ people. What I do is help create the right conditions within your nervous system and body so that you can begin to heal yourself.

Because healing is an inside job.

Your nervous system is the master controller of your body, it decides whether you’re safe, whether you can rest, digest, repair, and ultimately thrive. When it’s dysregulated, the body’s signals get distorted, stress responses stay switched on, and you end up in cycles of pain, tension, inflammation, and exhaustion.

My role? To guide your system back into balance. To help you reconnect mind and body, to release stored stress and tension, and to support you in building awareness.

But the other part of the work? That’s on you.

It’s the daily choices you make outside the treatment room, your sleep, your movement, your boundaries, your nutrition, your connection with others, your willingness to do the inner work.

When we combine the two, my support and your commitment, that’s where the magic happens ✨

So no, chiropractic won’t ā€œfixā€ you. But it can help you unlock the power to fix yourself.

Dysfunction in the body builds up long before it tells you about it.

Pain is just a smoke signal for the underlying fire.

It’s hard (but not impossible) to put out once it’s lit.

So why not try and prevent that fire from lighting to begin with with some self love. The gift of getting adjusted.

Prevention over cure.

Getting adjusted allows your nervous system to feel safe, making it more resilient to the ever demanding stresses of life.

If it’s taken me 13 years of being a Chiropractor, and 40 years of life to connect the dots, then it wouldn’t be a surprise if you haven’t yet.

If you have already…I applaud you, you’re way ahead of the game.

I think if I wasn’t a chiropractor, over the years I could have easily thought there was something very wrong with my back, with the amount of times it’s left me feeling completely debilitated.

But the knowledge I have allows me to accept that it is purely mechanical and self limiting.

But fortunately, my back has been the best it’s been in years since I’ve actually started connecting those dots and doing something about them.

And I truly believe that is not a coincidence.

Obviously I am a huge advocate of Chiropractic, and over the years it has helped me tremendously, but it wasn’t until I started to address all my other ā€˜stuff’ that I stopped getting the real bad flares.

šŸ’« Actively searching for things that bring me calm.

šŸ’« Removing myself from relationships that cause my nervous system stress.

šŸ’« Accepting my ā€˜Samisms’ as an ex boyfriend so kindly once told me I had.

šŸ’« Saying no to things I don’t want to do.

šŸ’« Prioritising good sleeping habits

šŸ’« Reducing my alcohol intake.

šŸ’« More recently, adjusting my work, to work with my cycle not against it, and creating a more sustainable life.

šŸ’« Not pushing myself physically to my limits through exercise, punishing my body and calling it ā€˜health & fitness’.

šŸ’« Being more in tune with what my body needs, not what my brain thinks it wants.

šŸ’« A year of my own personal therapy with a Psychotherapist, alongside doing my Psychotherapy Diploma which is teaching me a lot about myself.

My mental health still has its ups and downs, the start of perimenopause has definitely been escalating my ADHD symptoms, but I’m finding new ways to manage that.

But considering I’m at the start of my journey, when I’ve had a lifetime of mental health issues, I will gladly take the wins I’ve had so far.

I hope my page helps you to connect the dots, and gives you some inspo that you CAN do more for you. That you deserve more. And hopefully my page will guide you to achieve more.

Please know that I say this with love šŸ’—

Anything that causes long term stress to your nervous system is a part of the problem.

By not addressing the whole picture, those long lasting results that you want aren’t going to happen.

Chiropractic can help to soften the nervous system and make your body more resilient to the stresses of life…but it can’t get rid of those stresses.

I’m always happy to support you as much as you need, but unless you take ownership for all the other ā€˜stuff’ in your life, you won’t get the results that you deserve.

Back at it after 5 weeks away in Thailand, with my batteries fully recharged.

Last year I didn’t have enough of myself to give to my business, as I took on an employed position at another clinic, to enable me to get a mortgage. I tried for a while to balance the two but found it increasingly difficult to really give it my all. It ticked over in the background, but ticking over was all I could manage.

Prior to going travelling back in 2022, I completely burnt out in business and in life…hence my decision to sell my business and travel.

I am starting to understand that these episodes which have happened periodically throughout my life are a symptom of ADHD, and now that I know what to look out for, I feel I can manage it better. Defo not a pro, but getting better.

Sooooo when I felt those symptoms creeping back in (in my case, severe overwhelm, anxiety, lethargy, apathy and depression) I did what I had to do and took a step back, which significantly improved my mental health.

But now I’m back, I have my mortgage, and I am ready to give my business and my studies significantly more of my energy.

So here I am, letting you know that I am back practicing and welcoming you in to my safe space.

But who am I and how can I help you?

I am , which encompasses both my passion for your health and my passion for travel.

There are two sides to my practice….

Not only am I, what I would call a Mind Body Chiropractor, focussing on that Mind-Body connection within my treatments to help facilitate your healing. I am also a Holistic Health & Wellness Coach, helping you to take autonomy over your own health and wellness, in order to help manage and alleviate things such as chronic pain, chronic stress and chronic health conditions.

I have a little space in Stockport where I offer my services, so if you feel like you need my help, please feel free to get in touch.

Much love 🫶
