How is your skincare routine?
How is your skincare routine? Do you have a routine? Does the whole skincare routine and information about it just sound way TOO confusing - not to mention what products to use!!

Tips to balance your mind, body and soul
As a holistic therapist, I often see clients who are stressed, feeling burnt out and can’t wait to get onto the treatment couch for a facial, a massage, reiki or sometime a combination of them all – I tailor treatments to the need of the client. It’s not a “one size fits all”. Stress is very … Read More... about Tips to balance your mind, body and soul
Oh no! It’s not happening…….
Oh dear! I had had to pull out of the 100k Ultra Challenge. When I looked at the training plan there was NO way I could get the level of training done - and put in the hours needed - alongside doing my Health Coaching Course and other commitments I have. When I signed up for the challenge, I … Read More... about Oh no! It’s not happening…….

What is Nordic Walking anyway?
Have you heard of Nordic Walking but not really sure what it is? I was introduced to Nordic Walking during lockdown in 2021. I love walking and loved the idea of this as it gives an upper body workout along with a lower body one – so it’s a whole body workout. I loved it so much I decided to … Read More... about What is Nordic Walking anyway?

Distant Reiki – I know it seems weird….
As you might have seen from my Holistic Therapy page, I have been a Reiki Practitioner for many years now.
