"Personal message from Kathleen."

As another year draws to a close, I want to thank you sincerely for your custom. I am eternally grateful because without you my business would not have survived 41 years. Much has changed for all of us over that period, but I do hope the changes we have made over that period have added to your comfort and good health. I always endeavour to have the best staff I can find to work at the Clinic: my loyal and hardworking team are important to me. I do hope we can serve you and yours long into the future to improve and maintain your good health.

I wish you and your family a very happy, blessed, safe, peaceful and healthy Christmas. I wish you good health while enjoying the Christmas celebrations. Good health is a great gift, so eat and drink sensibly to stay well.
Count your blessings because they are many that are looking up at heaven wishing their loved ones be beside them.
Make sensible resolutions for the New Year. Above all, keep HOPE as your mirror: HOPE can make the present moment less difficult to bear. If we believe that tomorrow may be better, we can bear a hardship today.

Nollaig shona dhuit.

Thank you for all your custom and support throughout 2025. Have a wonderful Christmas and a very Happy and Healthy New Year. Hope to see you and yours back in 2026

If Christmas is hard

If you’ve lost someone dear,

Just look in your heart

You will know they are still here.

 

The star in the sky

The light falling snow

The robin outside

It seems like they know.

 

If this is a time

When you are struggling through

Just do what you can

For what matters, is you!

 

Theres no need to be merry all the time

There is no need to be bright

Just do what you can

It will all be alright.

Fatigue causes many ailments:

Lack of sleep causes fatigue and can have a negative impact on your health and wellbeing.

Aim for 7-8 hours of sleep every night. Go to bed at the same time every night and wake up at the same time each morning to keep yourself on schedule. Make sure your mattress is comfortable, the room is sufficiently dark and cool and your phone is not in the room.

Sleep apnea is when sufferers briefly stop breathing for short periods during sleep. It can cause load snoring or daytime fatigue. Being overweight, smoking and drinking alcohol can cause this to happen.

Not eating the correct food can affect your sleep. Eating a lot of carbohydrates or sugary food or drinking a lot of alcohol can cause your blood sugars to spike and then drop dramatically.

Anaemia, iron deficiency is very common in women. Without iron, your body may not be getting enough oxygen it needs for energy.

Depression causes sadness and anxiety, but it can also cause physical symptoms including fatigue, insomnia and pains.

Caffeine overload: tea, coffee, chocolate, coke or alcohol.

Most people think’s that coffee keeps them awake. Your blood sugars drop after a certain length of time having caffeine in your system. Too much caffeine can cause jitters, heart to race or palpitations. 

Diabetes can cause fatigue with either high or low blood sugars. When your sugars are high, they remain in the bloodstream instead of being used for energy, this makes you fatigue. Low blood sugars means you may not have enough fuel for energy also causing fatigue.

Dehydration, feeling thirsty, this can cause lack of energy.

Heart disease: when the heart is less able to pump blood to all of the body’s tissues, it conserves resources by diverting blood from the limbs and instead of sending it to the vital organs. This can cause fatigue.

Food allergies can cause fatigue. Certain foods, the body may not be able to tolerate.

You may feel sleepy after eating them or you may feel unwell.

The benefits of deep breathing
Deep breathing also goes by the names of diaphragmatic breathing, abdominal breathing, belly breathing, and paced respiration. When you breathe deeply, the air coming in through your nose fully fills your lungs, and the lower belly rises.

For many of us, deep breathing seems unnatural. There are several reasons for this. For one, body image has a negative impact on respiration in our culture. A flat stomach is considered attractive, so women (and men) tend to hold in their stomach muscles. This interferes with deep breathing and gradually makes shallow "chest breathing" seem normal, which increases tension and anxiety.

Shallow breathing limits the diaphragm's range of motion. The lowest part of the lungs doesn't get a full share of oxygenated air. That can make you feel short of breath and anxious.

Deep abdominal breathing encourages full oxygen exchange — that is, the beneficial trade of incoming oxygen for outgoing carbon dioxide. Not surprisingly, it can slow the heartbeat and lower or stabilize blood pressure.

Anxiety

There are a variety of anxiety disorders, each with varying symptoms, but most involve fear and worry. A sense of dread is common and the feelings can persist for months.

Examples of anxiety disorders are:

General Anxiety; Panic attacks; Social anxiety disorder, Specific Phobias, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Post Traumatic Disorder.

“IF YOU HAVE AN ANXIETY DISORDER, YOUR BRAIN MAY BE WIRED THAT WAY”

This means that anxiety could be a combination of genetics and environment.

For instance, if you grow up in an environment with frequent yelling or abuse, it might make you prone to looking out for potential threats even when they are no longer there. Some people are so used to feelings of anxiety that they don’t realize there is a problem and simply suffer in silence. As these feelings intensify, it can lead to social isolation, physical symptoms or health problems. Much Anxiety can start in childhood, which, if it remains unresolved, can lead to more intense Anxiety in adulthood.

Remember, it’s ok not to feel ok everyday. When you experience ‘down days’, try to avoid looking at the bigger picture; rather, ask yourself what is the ‘one’ thing you can do today that will make you feel a little better. The sun will come again tomorrow.

Most people do nothing to help their anxiety, but there are plenty of options open to you. Here at the clinic we can offer Reflexology, Cranial Sacral therapy, Hypnotherapy / psychotherapy, Mindfulness/ CBT and Acupuncture.

Nourishing your gut flora with probiotics is extremely important for brain function since there is a Gut-Brain connection. Eating plenty of fruit and vegetables is very important also.

6 ways to detox the mind

Avoid “I should, I have to” and replace with “I choose, I can”.

Clear out clutter, this clears the mind.

Stop procrastinating and do the thing you are avoiding on your ‘to do’ list.

Become aware of negative self talk and try to interrupt it as soon as it starts.

Brains need water and o2, drink 2 litres per day.

Resist the urge to compare yourself to others for this clouds your mind.
