Episode 16. Words of Reflection & Being a Mother in 2025.

This is a short episode where I speak from the heart about what I believe Christmas is all about, how modern technology is depriving us of the one thing that we NEED as humans…connection! I speak about what it means to be a mother at this time, about the importance of rest and asking for help. And I reflect on how difficult Christmas can be when you’ve lost a loved one and you’re grieving.

This was a very off-the-cuff episode, recorded in the middle of a day of cooking and baking. I had all but forgotten my love of both, particularly baking, and I truly appreciated the joy and privilege that I was able to devote today to this pursuit, unleashing my creativity. It fed my soul and filled my heart with joy. When we do something we love this is what happens. We all owe ourselves this.

So, this Christmas, I encourage you to REST, DO SOMETHING that GIVES YOU JOY, and spend time CONNECTING WITH YOURSELF and WITH OTHERS.

Merry Christmas everyone. THANK YOU for your support and connection, I truly appreciate it. 🙏🏻

Much love ❤️

Did you know that love can be expressed in many different ways. For some, it’s the gentle touch of acupuncture, a practice that has been harmonising body, mind, and spirit for centuries.

🌿 I believe in empowering you to embrace the art of self-care and healing. Acupuncture isn't just about needles; it's about finding balance within yourself and experiencing holistic well-being.

Whether you’re dealing with stress, fertility challenges, or finding hormonal balance, my approach blends modern science with the ancient wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine. It’s all about connection – with yourself and those around you.

I’d love to hear your thoughts and experiences.

Embarking on your first acupuncture session can feel like uncharted territory, but it doesn’t have to be daunting. One simple yet effective tip is to bring along something comforting, like a cosy blanket or a favourite pillow.

Wrapping yourself in a layer of comfort not only helps alleviate stress but also enhances the overall therapeutic experience. As someone deeply committed to holistic wellbeing, I encourage you to think of this as a nurturing experience: allowing your mind, body, and spirit to relax and reset.

💆‍♀️ Embrace this moment of self-care and let it be a gentle reminder that little comforts can lead to great relaxation.
Remember, the journey to optimal health begins with small, mindful steps.

As you step into this space of healing, share your stories and tips with others who may be considering the same path. What would you bring to your first session to ensure comfort?

As you prepare for your acupuncture journey, remember to bring a cardigan or loose sweater. 🧥 This might seem trivial, but it ensures that you stay comfortable and warm throughout your session, particularly if you experience any cooling effects from certain treatments like cupping.

Staying warm helps your body relax, making it easier to let go of tension and stress. This simple step supports the healing process by promoting blood flow and maintaining optimal circulation.

Warmth isn’t just about physical comfort; it symbolises the nurturing care I strive to provide in every session. 🌟
Your wellbeing is my top priority, and preparing thoughtfully can transform your acupuncture experience from good to great.

Do you have any personal rituals or comfort items you always bring to your sessions. I'd love to hear what works for you and keep expanding our toolbox of wellness strategies together.

Heading to your acupuncture appointment soon. Here’s a simple tip to elevate your experience: wear loose clothing.

🙌 Loose attire not only makes it easier for me to access key acupuncture points but also ensures that your session is as comfortable as possible. When your clothes allow easy adjustments, you can fully immerse yourself in the moment and reap the full benefits of the treatment.

This seemingly small detail enhances relaxation, allowing the powerful synergy of traditional and modern medicine to work its magic. 🌿
Remember, acupuncture is more than just a session—it's a holistic journey toward better health and wellbeing.

By taking this small step, you're empowering yourself to achieve optimal results. Have you tried this tip before, or do you have your own pre-acupuncture traditions.

Share them below. Let's create a community where we all support and learn from each other, one session at a time. &Hacks .

🍏 Feeling anxious. You're not alone, and nature has a pantry full of anxiety-easing foods ready to help.

By incorporating foods like chamomile tea, blueberries, and avocados into your diet, you can create a natural shield against stress. Chamomile tea calms the mind, while blueberries boost your antioxidants and fight free radicals.

Incorporating these can significantly ease moments of anxiety and bring a sense of calm. 🫐🥑

Consider eggs as well. High in protein and rich in nutrients, they can help maintain your energy levels and promote mental stability. And don't forget the almonds.

Loaded with magnesium, they can help regulate your mood and reduce anxiety symptoms. For a comforting indulgence, a bit of dark chocolate can work wonders by lowering your cortisol levels and uplifting your mood.

Do you have a go-to snack from this list. I'd love to hear about your favourite ways to incorporate these foods into your diet.

Share your tips and stories in the comments.

Hey, you. Your health is one of the most intimate relationships you will ever have—nurture it with the kindness it deserves.

I believe that true wellness begins with understanding this intrinsic partnership between you and your body. Envision your health as a dialogue your body is continually having with you.

This relationship thrives on attentive listening, empathy, and responding to your body's cues with informed choices. With a holistic approach, I aim to empower you to understand these cues, revolutionising how you engage with your well-being.

Let’s talk about how you perceive your health relationship.

Do you feel connected with your body’s needs? How do you cultivate this relationship day by day?

I am eager to hear your stories and support you on this transformative journey. Let’s empower one another towards optimal health.
