Your health is YOUR wealth: the art of self-care and not giving a crap about the rules
Ask someone what a healthy lifestyle is and they will probably respond with the following: exercise for 30 minutes a day five days a week; eat at least five servings of fruit and vegetables a day and drink plenty of water.

Life before death
Whenever I find myself slipping back into old ways and the ever-persistent wrath of ED, I think about my own death. I know, I know. Thinking about such a morbid event doesn’t exactly sound like the best way to boost your mood. And no, I am not an extremely negative and grim person. Hear me out!…… Continue reading Life before death
Fight or flight
I’ve never been much of a fighter. I can probably count the number of real fights I’ve had in my life on one hand. Ok maybe two hands. Either way, fights were never really my jam.

What’s your number baby?!
When it comes to talking about my experiences with an eating disorder, I’m pretty much an open book. I don’t mind sharing the stories of my past and, of course, some of the present.

The week that’s in it
With the election taking place next week, everyone is talking about the candidates, their policies, who will get in, who will get knocked out etc. etc. And rightly so. An election doesn’t roll around every day. However, with all the hype and coverage around it, I feel that a particular unrelated event might get overshadowed…… Continue reading The week that’s in it
