Good Happy Morning 😁

Today marks VE Day, when in 1945 the guns fell silent across Europe and the world breathed a moment of peace after years of unimaginable loss. We honour those who stood firm in the face of fear, who fought in wars they never chose but whose courage helped shape the world we live in.

To every soldier, past and present, who has faced the battlefield, carried the weight of duty, and shown bravery beyond measure, we thank you.

You are the quiet strength in our history books, the reason we wake in peace.
Yet, VE Day is not just history, it is legacy.
It lives on in the freedom we walk in, in the rights we so often take for granted, and in the quiet strength of the soldiers who serve even now, facing new battles across the world.

Let us take a moment, let’s put down our phones and truly remember and to hold close the freedom that so many paid for with their lives, be grateful for the freedom we are so blessed with today.

Let us be proud. Let us be thankful. And let us never forget that peace was paid for, with real lives, with heartbreak, and with the hope that future generations might never have to know war the same way again.

They stood for peace they never got to see, so we could live in freedom they never got to know.
VE Day - 8th May 1945
We remember. We honour.

With love, pride, and eternal respect,
Nature’s Sanctuary Ltd. 🙏🏼🪷🌿

Good Happy Morning 😁

Storm Bert gave us all a crash course in connecting with nature, mainly through flying leaves, flying gazebos, sideways rain, downpours, floods, fallen trees and the occasional airborne wheelie bin and its contents.

Today begins the clean up.
Stay safe, but if you’re out and about, maybe be grateful for any tree that remained rooted.

Good Happy Morning!😁

Ever thought about how our bodies and minds are keeping up with modern life?

Did you know? Our spines haven’t even fully adapted to walking upright after all these thousands of years.
Yet here we are, expecting our young human brains to handle endless streams of information, tasks, and pressures that keep multiplying every day and running on empty.
It’s like running a hundred programs on an old computer, it’s bound to overload at some point.

Just as a computer slows down with too many tabs open, our minds need time to process, reflect, and recharge.

So today, let’s take a moment to slow down and focus on what really matters. After all, it’s okay to close a few tabs in life for some peace and clarity. 🌿🧠🧐

Stay balanced, go outside and listen to the birds on your break today and remember, progress doesn’t mean we can’t pause.
Happy midweek reset, everyone.
Enjoy a peaceful balanced day.🤗🧡🪷🌿

Overcoming Self-Doubt in a World of Perfectionism

We live in a time where social media bombards us with images of perfection, flawless people, successful careers, and seemingly effortless lives.

It’s easy to feel like we don’t measure up.
This constant comparison can fuel self-doubt and anxiety, making us question our worth and capabilities.

But here’s the truth, what you see online isn’t the full picture.

People curate what they share, often leaving out their struggles, failures, and fears.

From my perspective, lessons learned, Anxiety Freedom Cards, Human Givens and Personal experience our minds are hardwired with certain emotional needs, security, attention, connection, and a sense of achievement, among others.

When these needs are not met, self-doubt creeps in, leading to anxiety and even paralysis in some cases.

If you find yourself struggling with these feelings, here are a few strategies to help you restore balance…

Filter your Input:
Social media is designed to trigger comparison.
Be selective about who and what you follow. Choose accounts that inspire growth and learning, not ones that reinforce unrealistic standards.

Reframe your Thoughts: When self-doubt hits, ask yourself if your inner dialogue is based on facts or assumptions.
Often, we exaggerate our flaws and downplay our strengths.
Challenge that voice of doubt by looking at what you’ve already accomplished.

Take Small Steps:
Anxiety often arises when we feel overwhelmed. Break down big tasks into smaller, manageable steps. Celebrate each success, no matter how small, to build confidence over time.

Meet your Emotional Needs:
Focus on activities that fulfill your emotional needs, whether it’s meaningful relationships, creative expression, or a sense of purpose. When we prioritise our needs, self-doubt has less room to thrive.

Practice Self-Kindness: Perfection isn’t attainable, and it’s not required for happiness.
Treat yourself with the same kindness you would offer a friend.
You are enough as you are, flaws and all.

Remember, it’s human nature to doubt, but it doesn’t have to define you.

When we learn to manage our emotional needs, we can face uncertainty and imperfection with greater resilience.

Be kind to yourself.
Sending a hug to all that need today.

Good afternoon you beauties 🍂🎃🧡

I want to take a moment to share something very personal but also important.
Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been navigating some additional unexpected health challenges.
You might have noticed I had to close early a couple of times or not been in.

Well, I have amongst other frustrations, Atopic allergies, meaning that my body will have an allergic reaction to the peas being on the wrong side of the plate on a Wednesday afternoon & as it turns out my throat decided to throw a tantrum the other week and swell up (because, why not?), causing me some distress due to a condition called Chronic angioedema.

Some of you that are close to
Me, know I have a few stubborn autoimmune conditions, and one of the delightful side effects is this chronic angioedema and urticaria. The word “chronic” just means I’ve been dealing with this for longer than anyone should have to!

So, after some check-ups that got more extensive than I had planned (thank you, body!), they found my blood pressure is high, inflammation markers through the roof, calcium levels higher than expected, and vitamin D lower than a winter’s day, the M.E can be irritating as I try to navigate my days and the S.L.E keeps displaying her beautiful rash, indicative of a flare ahead.
Oh, and to keep things interesting, they also found another lump in my right breast, to go with the benign one on my left.

In all seriousness, Chronic angioedema in the neck and throat is a serious condition because the swelling can block the airway, making it hard to breathe.

If the swelling gets severe, it can become life-threatening quickly.

Repeated episodes of angioedema can worsen this risk and affect swallowing, increasing the chance of choking or respiratory failure.

Immediate medical treatment is essential, and long-term care may be needed to prevent future episodes.

My appointments are beginning to come through thick and fast.

I wouldn’t usually share this much personal Information, but here’s why I’m telling you all this:

1. Ladies, check your breasts. (Seriously, do it.)(.)(.)

2. Gents, check your… well, you know the drill.

3. I might need to make some sudden appointment changes.
I really don’t want to cause any inconvenience to any of you and I'm really pushing my health to its limit at present, but I hope you can understand if I need to adjust things.

4. I believe in educating people.

I really do not like letting anyone down but with lots of appointments ahead,
I need to stay flexible.

Thank you for your patience, understanding, and for continuing to support me during this unpredictable time!

Let’s keep moving forward, please keep coming in to buy the products as this keeps our little business going and gives me one less thing to worry about, one mildly healthy, lumpy, but hopeful step at a time. 💪😊

Appointments tomorrow are as normal. 🤗

Take care and check yourselves. 🤗🪷🌿🙏🏼🧡

Good afternoon everyone,

Please note, our website is currently offline as we switch providers. If you'd like to book an appointment, please message us on here or call 07498770813.

Thank you!

Here's a sneak peak...

Copied and pasted post;
The lady at the charity shop today told me that she wishes people would clear out their children's old toys in the lead up to Christmas rather than after because she always sees a number of parents in the days before Christmas looking for toys for their little ones who might be strapped for cash. She said there's very rarely anything in just before, but that they get inundated with toys in the days after.

And it really made me think about it in a way I never would have before.

If you know your child is going to get lots of presents from father Christmas this year, by clearing out your cupboards a few days early you could make another child's Christmas a lot more special too.

Saw this & thought I'd repost ❤️
