meditation session with laura simpson
An introduction to Laura Simpson and what to expect during a meditation session.
how coping strategies benefit my mental health
While we love writing these blogs, you will often find that the content is raw, simply our thoughts and feelings pouring out of our head and onto the page.
Within that rawness, you will also find our vulnerability and hopefully our honesty.
This is one such blog post.
how I discovered I suffer from stress
“Pull your socks up, man up and grow a pair.”
That’s what I believed when somebody mentioned stress.
How can you be stressed when you work in an office? It’s not like you’re Police Officer, NHS worker, Fire Fighter or Military personnel.
Then, as they say, karma bit me squarely on the bum.
I got stressed.
how meditation has changed my life
Having been healthy majority of my life, I was suddenly struck down with Toxic Shock Syndrome. And as a result I developed horrific auto-immune conditions as part of this.
These conditions had me bedbound, hospitalised and in so much pain. I truly thought my life was over. I was told I could never heal.
So I decided I wanted to take control of my condition. I was going to heal, and I was going to help other people across the world to heal.
hard habit to break
It’s addiction month here at the Health and Wellbeing Hub. When we say the word addiction, we mostly associate it with “bad” addictions such as drugs, alcohol, gambling, gaming, Love Island, coffee.
But are all habits bad?

Asthma saved my life. And my family still saves it every day.
