How to Work Through Chronic Illness Anxiety - [bonus] | 31
What is it actually like to live with chronic illness, and why does almost nobody prepare you for anything that you're likely to experience outside the main symptoms?Living with chronic illness anxiety, or the feeling of being on edge over what might happen, is one such thing.In this episode I talk about the toll that takes on your body, your life, and eventually the severity of how you experience your chronic illness.

When I first came across Reena on Instagram, I wasn’t ready to hear her message. Our chat was really grounding for me, it reminded me how hard it can be to hear the message of self-love, acceptance and compassion in the face of chronic illness, especially when we’re always being persuaded to believe in the opposite. It also confirmed how bloody powerful and transformative those things are, if we can get on board with them. Chatting with Reena was like connecting with an old friend.

How Can I Embrace the Journey of Life with Chronic Illness? | 23
When you live with chronic illness, the desire to heal makes sense. Of course it does! But in today’s mainstream society - where we’ve been tricked into believing we’re broken, less than and need fixing - healing has become a goal; a result we need to achieve in order to become worthy humans.The experience of healing has been lost, and for so many, the experience of life along with it.Your Chronic Illness Ally is a chance to take back the experience of healing, and the experience of living, without feeling like you...

It’s become about my chronic illness encouraging and guiding me to strengthen the fibres of my being. To sculpt a more peaceful, grounded, fulfilling existence.

You can feel better without changing a thing about your chronic illness... let me explain! | 21

You do not need to wait until your chronic illness is in remission, or even only mildly active, to start feeling good about yourself and your life.2. In actual fact, approaching it from th...

I know how radical it is to think of chronic illness as a force for good in your life. I know it goes against what we’re constantly being told, shown and conditioned to believe.I also know that the quest to feel better by doing only the things that address the physiological manifestation of your chronic illness, and supposed physiological root causes, is futile.There’s a huge gap between this head-against-a-brick-wall version of what we’ve all been conditioned to see healing as - the kind that has you on a conveyor belt of try...

If we considered that, before approaching any kind of healing practice or regimen, that we first needed to feel deeply safe within our bodies, how do you think that would change the landscape of the healing, wellness and self-development worlds? Would the focus change? Would all the quick fixes and magic cures no longer be a thing? Would the common belief that chronic illness = broken and needs fixing be thrown out completely (I’m already campaigning for that to happen!!) What else would that foundational need for safety lead to? We discuss all - or most - of that in this...

Self-compassion isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when you consider living or working in a way that questions the status quo, and yet throughout this conversation, Sophie and I kept coming back to that very idea.

With Sarah Baxter : on Inviting Curiosity and Play to the Healing Process | 14
The relationship between trauma, PTSD and chronic illness is one that lives in a cycle. Whilst many who have experienced trauma/who experience PTSD will also go on to develop chronic illness, the very living with a chronic illness can be traumatic. It’s an aspect that’s perhaps not very well acknowledged, and therefore not addressed and often I see the two existing in a bit of a feedback loop.Sarah and I met around 10 years ago, when we both worked at a design company. Throughout the years, we’ve kept in touch and, thanks to the power...

What are you missing? What else should you be doing?!!)The idea that we’re not enough, that we need fixing, that we’re somehow broken, keeps us bound to the chronic illness struggle.How would things change for you if you started to believe that you are enough.

Conscious rebellion is making a fully aware choice to do something that goes against your usual lifestyle or healing practice. Something that might consequently take you off track for a micro moment. But something that I believe makes the healing journey more sustainable, achievable and enjoyable. No matter how well you’ve designed your life to suit your needs, no matter how good it makes you feel, no matter how in alignment it is, it still comes with a feeling of being ‘on’ all the time. And we humans aren’t designed to be on all the time, in any way. In...
