Tired of thinking about food all the time? Doing exercises you hate because you think you should? Confused by all the information out there? Still not happy with yourself? ME TOO!! Let's join together for help/support. As an ex consultant for a diet organisation, I now realise that everything I learned and believed was flawed! I have changed my views after lots of research. My life has changed drastically in so many ways. I am now happier, more confident and have left all food issues behind me. I enjoy social occasions more without anxiety about how to cope if food is part of the celebrations. I also stress far less over my size in terms of what to wear and how other people may judge me. My size is the LEAST interesting thing about me and the same applies to you. I'm here to help and support you to find this same freedom. Stick around and join in. Together we can achieve so much more than we can on our own. https://www.facebook.com/Diets-get-stuffed-108531860878189/
But not just the physical self-care; the emotional and mental self-care too.
Sharon helps busy mums who are self-employed or in senior management to put themselves and their needs on their to-do list for the sake of their health and their family.
As well as offering treatments, Sharon provides tips, strategies, and workshops to empower her clients to manage their health and wellness long-term outside their treatment sessions.
During the lockdown, Sharon wrote an eBook to help women develop and implement strategies for their mental, emotional, and physical self-care.
When not working Sharon loves spending time with family and friends usually doing something
that involves eating; Sharon loves an afternoon tea.

Suzanne is a weight loss coach, but not the standard kind. She never counts calories
and she tells her clients to eat more fat. She gives her clients in-depth knowledge of why
their body stores fat, why they have energy slumps and why they have food cravings.
Suzanne’ background is in Human Chemistry – she loves knowing about how the body
works on a hormone/neurotransmitter level.
During the start of the Covid lockdowns 3 members of her household (including her)
were recovering from some kind of "fever and dry cough", they were all weak & wheezy
and also eating down to the bare basics in the kitchen after 9 weeks of isolation.
Whilst many people understandably spent that time binging on their stockpiles of booze
& pasta, Suzanne was genuinely concerned that if she hadn't already had Covid, she
was not in the best shape to go through it.
So, she started ordering organic veg boxes & reading EVERY bit of scientific research
she could find about the emerging picture of who gets sickest with Covid.
As a result she changed her eating patterns to make things gentler on her blood sugar
system, made sure she got plenty of cardio exercise, took vitamin D, probiotics, etc etc.
During her months of reading scientific research, lots of sparks went off in her brain,
linking what she was reading to what she already knew about the digestive hormones.
And how we all respond differently to the same foods due to differences in our own
digestive system.
And she realised that much of what was beneficial to surviving Covid was also the key to
healthy weight loss.
Traditional healthy eating advice from the last few decades is now being replaced by
modern scientific studies that show much of what we’ve been told is not quite right.
Keen to help as many people as possible to control their weight in a way that’s easy,
healthy and sustainable in the long term, Suzanne she set up a free Facebook group to
teach people the basic principles, and more recently she’s launched an 8-week
programme to help people to test their own reactions to foods and design their own
personalised blueprint for losing weight and preventing metabolic health problems.

Shamanism is not a religion, Shamans act as messengers and keepers between the “human world” and the spiritual worlds. They can be healers not only by giving medicines but by healing souls as the Shaman acts in the form of the Hollow bone which is there to ensure their attachments are not part of your journey.
An truely insparational story.

Please note this is part one the remaining episodes will feature in time.
Joan has served as a Psychic and a Medium for several years. She is passionate about her work and feels blessed to be an ambassador and voice for Spirit.
Over the years she devoted herself to both her personal and spiritual development with experienced teachers and mentors through both the Arthur Findlay college and Arthur Conan Doyle centre.
Joan serves as a medium by facilitating space for the living to be in the presence of Spirit. She has the integrity to show people, through evidential messages, that Spirit is always with them by linking with the Spirit World – to bring peace, comfort, healing, and upliftment. Her desire is to help others feel the many benefits of mediumship. For Joan, it is important to be sensitive to and respectful of everyone’s unique reasons for seeking connection with Spirit.
She is an accomplished spiritual teacher, Crystal, Reiki and Sound practitioner and energy healer. she regularly teaches workshops at the Arthur Conan Doyle Centre in Edinburgh. For Joan the ability to help others heal is as important as her mediumship. She does phenomenal work with crystals and leads several popular spiritual development classes and workshops in Scotland and England. She has enabled many people to discover their own connection to Spirit and helped them on their Spiritual path.
Joan loves to educate and considers herself as a spiritual teacher as much as a practicing medium.
As a teacher and mentor if I can help you understand and tap into your own inner guidance (psychic intuition) for answers, and experience the joy and love of connecting to Spirit then “I have been an Ambassador for Spirit”

Rosanna is an experienced musculoskeletal physiotherapist and Pilates teacher working predominantly with women and children. Since relocating to Cumbria in 2019 she has further trained as a Holistic Core Restore® Coach which essentially combines her physiotherapy knowledge with a more holistic approach, with a special emphasis on Pelvic Health, Pregnancy, Nutrition, Post Birth, Soft Tissue Therapies and the Peri-to-Post Menopausal years.
She is an accredited Mummy MOT® Practitioner which involves carrying out a specialist and comprehensive post-natal examination and check up for all mums whether they birthed vaginally or via a c-section.
Many women wait for too long before seeking health about bladder, bowel, and sexual health concerns. Physiotherapy really does make a difference for many of these women. She is passionate about enabling women and children to return to the activities they love to do, without fear, pain or embarrassment of pelvic floor issues.
She sees clients from across Cumbria on an individual basis as well as leads Pilates classes and Women's health and wellness classes. Currently she is delivering a course specifically focused on female runners. She is delighted to be based out of The Health Barn in Askham, and to work alongside a myriad of practitioners and therapists who are equally as passionate about improving the health of the clients they serve.

Jane qualified as a reflexologist in 1999 and first became interested in foot reading after a reflexology session had a profound impact on her, and she decided to find out more about the link between feet and wellbeing.

The success of Jane’s workshops has meant that she has been incredibly busy not just here in the UK but has also made several visits to the USA, United Arab Emirates, Ireland, Portugal, France and Australia and has made several TV appearances:
- “This Morning” where Jane appeared three times

publications as “The Daily Mail”, “Top Sante”, “New Woman” and Jane’s foot reading skill was hailed as one of Sunday Times’ “Top Ten Health Trends”.
Jane’s first book ‘Let’s Read Our Feet!” demonstrates how to read the hidden messages in feet. It shows how the shape of feet and toes can not only tell a lot about a person’s personality, but also help them to improve areas of our lives that they are unhappy with. It

Jolly Well Being offers fun, friendly online fitness sessions set to uplifting, motivating music. They are inclusive, non-judgemental and empowering; people take part at their own pace.
My name is Nicola Roberts and my maiden name was Jolly. When people ask me how I became a fitness instructor, I say it was God having a laugh! I was an out-of-shape mother-of-two and a local journalist, approaching my 40th birthday. Life was hectic and I needed something just for me. I went to a dance fitness class and instantly loved the carefree atmosphere. It became my sanity. When my husband was suddenly out of work and money was tight, I worried about spending on seemingly frivolous things such as fitness classes so, thanks to a series of coincidences (God-incidences), I trained as an instructor.
It was a hard slog, physically and mentally. My body ached and I was full of self-doubt. I remember several times driving to class in tears thinking I would quit after this last one.
But something would always happen to make me think again: a full class; a buzzing atmosphere; kind words and gratitude from customers.
Almost 10 years on - which has included training in Purestretch too - Covid has moved the sessions online. I send customers pre-recorded playlists for them to do at home, working on cardio, strength, tone and balance. We each add our own style to the easy-to-follow moves. I am proud of the eclectic mix of carefully chosen mood boosting songs which have powerful lyrics, a punchy beat and a memorable tune. There is incredible camaraderie between us all, and I feel very blessed to be part of something so mutually supportive.
