SOMETIMES THE PAST FEELS CLOSER THAN WE WANT IT TO BE — showing up in our thoughts, our behaviours, or our relationships.

Healing from trauma isn’t about erasing the past. It’s about finding a safe way to process what’s happened while learning how to build something new — calm, confidence, purpose.

In my work with adults and young adults, I blend trauma therapy with a solution-focused approach. Together, we deal with what you’ve been through to allow you to focus on what’s possible in your future.

The good news is that you don’t have to choose between healing and moving forward — therapy can be both. 🌱

I offer a free personalised phone call to help you identify what you want help with. Reach out via my website or DM me.

Runners have more access to their data than ever, but when it comes to your heart rate stats how well do you really understand yours?

From what your resting heart rate says about your fitness to when it could be a warning sign, there’s more to those numbers than you might think.

We asked a leading sports cardiologist to explain what every runner should know at the link in comments.

Autumn is settling in, and the heated couch is back on in my clinics 🔥

When you come for hypnotherapy, you get to lie down on the heated couch for the hypnosis part of our session.

What is hypnosis?

Hypnosis is something you do already many times during the day. It is a focused state of mind that we go into, often when we're driving, daydreaming or walking. During this time, we get access to our unconscious mind and it is this part of our brain that helps us to make change and find solutions. That will explain why often when we're walking we have a light bulb moment where we know what to do about something 💡

What do I do during hypnosis?

You get to lie on the couch and just relax, whilst I talk to you using language to help you relax and work on the things you want to change, such as getting rid of old thoughts patterns or fears, building confidence, or being kinder to yourself. You are ALWAYS in complete control during hypnosis.

If you like the sound of hypnotherapy, then do get in touch for a chat.

The calf muscles—especially the soleus and gastrocnemius—function as a “second heart” by helping push blood from the legs back toward the heart.

When they contract, the veins are compressed, and one‑way valves ensure blood moves upward. This action supports venous return and prevents blood from pooling in the lower extremities.

If activity is limited, the calf pump weakens, increasing risks of DVT, varicose veins, and chronic venous issues.

Because the soleus muscle is well-suited for endurance, it is particularly effective at sustaining the pump over time.

Strengthening and stretching the calves—via exercises like calf raises and calf stretches—enhances their function, helping maintain healthy circulation, reduce blood pressure, and protect against clot formation.

Increasing step rate can have multiple benefits for runners. Despite this it's not a cure all! Those with a low starting step rate and gait findings that are likely to improve from an increase (such as over-striding or increased hip adduction) are more likely to benefit.
