Older Parents – something to remember

So there’s been lots of chat about ‘Older parents’ recently.  An Indian couple in their 70’s became parents for the first time.  Tessa Sanderson (60) adopted twins.  Janet Jackson is pregnant at 49.  And a good friend of mine ‘older single mum’ was asked to write an article about it for Newsweek. Technically I was […]

Far Infrared Mat from Get Fitt Review

I’m better! Not fixed.  But dramatically and unbelievably better! It’s like someone switched the lights back on in my body! And now I look back I can see that I was degenerating badly.  It’s actually quite scary now I feel better, to see how I was on an inexorable spiral downhill.  It was obvious if […]

If I was better what would I change?

So let’s say the combo of naturopath, CBD oil and Far Infrared mats (my newest investigation) didn’t just help me manage my Lyme/Fibro but actually returned me to full health. What would I change?  What would I go back to doing?  What lessons have I learnt? I think that it’s an important question to answer. […]

When Fibromyalgia is actually Lyme Disease

Progress

I’m sorry, it has all been a little bit about sickness recently hasn’t it?  Bit boring really, so I’m going to make this post succinct, and then move onto more interesting subjects for a while 😉 Some background: since June last year, I got really sick.  I’m better, but I can’t work full time, find […]

CBD oil for Pain Relief & Sleep Problems

I apologise, I’ve been promising this post for months, and really it’s pretty easy to write, I just didn’t get round to it. If you have a weird funky illness that gives you pain and sleep problems, the I really recommend CBD oil. There is no ‘hit’.  Just pain relief and a good 6hrs sleep, […]

Why my body suddenly crashes

This is how my body works ….. “Right then, we have a target, all hands on deck we have a target” “We estimate that this project will take <xyz> amount of energy over <abc> number of days: initiate gradual send out of energy per day” “Oh shit, we estimated wrong” “Initiate borrow of energy from […]

The face of silent illnesses

This is the face of illness ……   It doesn’t look particularly ill does it? Honestly I don’t mind.  If I looked like I felt, it would be pretty catastrophic, and at least I don’t have that to worry about.  I don’t need lots of sympathy all the time either.  Although, I suppose it might […]

How to invest in yourself!

How to invest in yourself!

So back at Radio Verulam today with the Gorgeous Danny Smith and I was inspired to chat about ‘investments’ by Curly Headed Boy. It’s spring time, maybe you need a fresh look at your life and a bit of an overhaul? The question is how to invest in yourself? Money Saving. We are quite strict […]

How, why and what on earth is ‘Loving yourself’?

Is it possible to have romance and kids?

I was on the radio tonight with the ‘Gorgeous Danny Smith’ on his Drivetime show on Radio Verulam (you can listen again for a week here – monday 5.30-6pm), talking about ‘Self Love’.  It’s a bit cliched maybe, but also really important, and something I’ve been thinking about and wishing a few of my friends would practice more […]

New Life Resolutions

New Life Resolutions

By now most of you guys will have started and stopped your New Year Resolutions.  Never fear; that’s perfectly normal! January is a time for reflection.  March and September are the time for new resolutions. But I was thinking after seeing a funny YouTube video, getting a bit down about the state of the world, […]
