Pesticides and all things killing us
Pesticides have very much been in my orbit lately.
I heard a rumour that we have a higher concentration of people experiencing MS, Parkinson’s and MND on Guernsey, than in other areas of the UK. Some will say that this is due to the overuse of pesticides on the island although there is, as yet and as far as I know, no concrete evidence.
I was then reading Nigel Jee’s book, The Guernsey Cow, and in it he references the concern of some farmer’s about infertile cows in a field near the airport. Some argued that this was due to the petroleum from the aircraft, some believed it was due to the move to artificial insemination and others felt it was due to the pesticides used in many of the island’s greenhouses, which circulated into the general environment through the open windows.
Then someone was telling me about the PFOS scandal, where PFOS was used by the airport fire services following a fatal plane crash in 1999 and how this led to the contamination of soil along Forest Road, and the concern that this has contaminated the island’s water supply. PFOS was previously used in firefighting foams but was banned by the EU in 2008 because it was found to be dangerous for the environment and human health with prolonged exposure causing cancer, while repeated exposure by ingestion can cause stomach upset, liver toxicity and effect on the thyroid hormones.
And the, to finish it all off, an organic farmer friend was telling me how glyphosate, a herbicide which is used extensively on wheat and maize, also contains antibiotics. Therefore, if you are consuming non-organic products such as breads and cereals grown with the use of glyphosate, then you are not only consuming pesticides but antibiotics too.
What’s more, I was told that while there is a limit to how much glyphosate can be used on edible products such as grains, fruits and vegetables, no such restriction exists for flowers and plants. Thus gardening centres selling plants which have been covered with pesticides are actually really harmful places to spend your time. Furthermore when you fill your home with beautiful flowers sold in shops, you are actually making your home toxic. Lastly many of the plants marketed as ‘bee friendly’ are actually so toxic they will likely kill the bees!
Incidentally, herbicides containing Glyphosate are only available to use in Guernsey for those holding a relevant National Proficiency Test Council (NPTC) certificate of competence in the safe use of pesticides from 31st December 2022. Apparently, these measures are also to protect our raw water supplies as the majority of the island's surface is being used for water catchment….and to think I used to swim regularly at Petit Bot with all that farm run off…
Oh it’s a scary world. not only are we bombarded with toxins in the food we eat and the water we drink, let alone the sea we swim in, but in the air we breathe. And let’s not forget what’s happening above our heads with the dreaded cloud seeding, and all the WIFI and 4G circulating the air, to say nothing of increased vaccination programmes and Big Pharma, and I haven’t even started on the mobile telephones. I used to think a lot of this was conspiracy theory until I started reading the smaller print and realised that much of this isn’t hidden from us, we just don’t want to know.
I certainly didn’t want to know. I didn’t want to accept that not everyone has our best interests at heart, that this isn’t a fair and just world, that not everyone has a conscience or cares about the plight of the common man and woman. I didn’t want to think that greed gets the better of people, that women were encouraged to work, not because of women’s empowerment movements but because the powers that be recognised that women spent the money and if consumerism was to flourish then women needed to have more money to spend.
I have been reading this fantastic book called Addiction to Perfection by Marion Woodman, which looks at the psychology and attitudes of the modern woman, and how much our cultural conditioning favours patriarchal values such as productivity, goal orientation, intellectual excellence, spiritual perfection etc, at the expense of the more earthy, interpersonal values traditionally recognised as the heart of the feminine.
There are so many ah ha moments that I cannot do the book justice just here, but one thing it has made me realise, is that until we change our minds, and let go of our patriarchal conditioning, which has us seeing the world in black and white, all of the above will keep on happening, our obsession with money and power at the expense of life and a healthy life at that will continue to be compromised.
I’ll share this quote with you though as it seems pertinent:
“It is part of our culture’s prevailing attempts to establish security with concrete objects until we are buried alive under our own piles of riches or junk, depending on the perspective. The mothers’ sons who became Nazi murderers believed that they could concretise Nietzsche’s “superhuman” ideal and threw this planet into a maelstrom of suffering attempting to do it. Negative masculinity cannot think in metaphor. Everything has to be concrete, serving the temporal rather than the eternal. Again the paradox surfaces. it tries to make the temporal as perfect as the eternal it rejects. The addiction to perfection is an addiction to unreality which leaves little room for the feminine”.
All of this pesticide chatter did cause me to consider my toxicity, not least from what I ingest, but from my environment - every action has a consequence; I like to cycle to enjoy nature and fresh air but that does mean I am subjected to the exhaust fumes, and while I avoid tap water and use a Berkey at home, elsewhere I might drink bottled water, which likely contains micro plastics.
Furthermore, people still talk of vaccine shedding and the effect this has on all of us, vaccinated nor not. None of us are immune to factors beyond our control, which means we must do what we can with factors we can control, such as the food we eat and the immediate environment within which we live and our use of chemicals both in our home and on our body.
As luck would have it I discovered that a friend has started selling Zeolite, which helps to clear heavy metals and toxins and balances the body’s PH. You can read more here:
“Despite our best efforts, it is challenging to altogether avoid the toxins and pollutants present in food, water and the atmosphere. A highly concentrated form of liquid zeolite, Zeolite Plus, is perfect for incorporating into a cleansing regime such as a detox. It helps absorb heavy metals and toxins and balance the body's pH: essential foundations for supporting good health.
● Potent
● Clinoptilolite form
● Contains fulvic & humic acid
● Over 70 trace minerals
Available locally in Guernsey for £37.50, 59ml glass bottles containing 120 servings (one serving = 10 drops). Mix with water and ideally consume between meals.
To place an order or for more information, get in contact via email: zeolite.gsy@yahoo.com or follow us on social media: zeolite.gsy”
I am hoping this is all helpful. I highly recommend both Nick Jee and Marion Woodman’s books.

Health is your Wealth - Ayurveda
‘Health is your wealth’ as we say in Ayurveda. We can have all the money in the world, but if we don’t have our health then we can’t get to enjoy our financial wealth. Thus in Ayurveda we see health as fundamental to our experience of life on Planet Earth, and strengthening our immunity is therefore paramount.
Furthermore, one of the things I love about Ayurveda, other than it is from the Vedas and therefore tried and tested over thousands of years, is its focus, not just on the body and the mind but also on the soul – the whole being therefore. This of course is very different to the allopathic take on things where we still separate the body and mind - the body is treated in the PEH, for example, and the mind is treated at Oberlands and as for the soul…
Not only that, but one of Ayurveda’s main objectives is the prevention of dis-ease (lack of ease, disharmony then) by strengthening the immune system, which makes the immune system a significant element of Ayurveda. As we all know, our wellbeing is dependent on the body’s resistance to dis-ease and the immune system plays a significant role in the prevention of disease and therefore recovery from disease.
What we also know is that some people are more prone to disease than others. For example, among people living in infected surroundings only some of them are found to be affected while others are left without any effect. It shows that the pathogen (bacterium, virus or other microorganism) requires particular favourable conditions and susceptibility of the individual in order for disease to form. Without these conditions, the pathogen will be destroyed by themselves. Thus the stronger the immunity, the greater our protection from disease.
In Ayurveda, the focus is not on prevention of disease, per se, but on strengthening the immune system as a whole. In this way we can maximise ‘ojas’. Ojas is a Sanskrit term which can be translated as ‘vigour’ or essence of vitality. Essentially, ojas is the vital energy that governs our immunity, strength and happiness – three things we want in abundance. If our ojas is weak, then our health, our spirit and our energy decreases.
Like any hereditary characteristics, immunity is also inherited and is greatly influenced by several other factors such as diet, environment, way of living, age, mental state, development or growth and pathological conditions of the individuals.
What is Ayurveda?
Ayurveda is a holistic approach to healing, which focuses on the root cause of any loss of wellbeing rather than merely treating the symptoms. Originating in India thousands of years ago, the word Ayurveda is made from two Sanskrit roots ‘Ayu’ which mean life and ‘Veda’ which means knowledge. Therefore, the term Ayurveda means the knowledge or science of life. Ayurveda uses a combination of diet, herbal medicine and lifestyle choices to promote wholeness and vitality.
Essentially, Ayurveda is a lifestyle, which offers a path to greater consciousness. Indeed a certain level of consciousness and self-responsibility is required to bring Ayurveda into your life, allowing you to move beyond habits and behaviour patterns which do not support your nature or indeed health and wellbeing.
In Ayurveda, factors which lessen immunity include:
· Mental stress such as fear, anxiety, grief, anger and rage
· Poor diet and nutritional disturbances
· Lack of sleep
· Excessive physical exertion/exercise
· Alcohol, drugs and smoking
· Severe infection
· Injury, accidental or surgical
· Excessive loss of bodily fluids
· Wasting
· Season, environment and age
· Severe constitutional derangement.
In Ayurveda, factors which enhance immunity include:
· Balanced diet appropriate to the constitution
· Mental peace
· Proper exercise
· Favourable climate
· Characteristics of race and generation in which birth took place
· Genetics of parents
· Constitutional characteristics (vata, pitta, kapha)
· Adolescence
· Proper mental stimulation
In the ancient Ayurvedic texts we are told that features of a healthy person include:
Dosha – the doshas (one of three biological energies circulating within the body) which are present in the body and mind (vata, pitta and kapha) and must be in a balanced state in order to keep a person healthy. When the balance of the doshas is disturbed, then this can lead to a state of disease and impact on the immune system.
Agni (fire) – in order for an individual to stay healthy, his/her digestive fire must be balanced and effective. When the digestive fire is weak, this can cause many diseases. It is well known that the health of an individual is dependent on the strength of their digestion.
Waste products – the excretion of faeces, urine and sweat must be balanced.
Tissues – the seven tissues of the body must be in a balanced state and able to function properly.
Senses – the sensory and motor organs and mind must be in equilibrium and able to discharge to perform their duties properly.
Mind – the state of mental health is more important than physical health. Look after your mental state!
Soul – awakened consciousness, unifying body and mind for eternal health and happiness.
How is this achieved through diet?
Eating for your constitution, being aware of the impact various foods/drinks have on your digestive capability, and resulting mental, emotional and physical wellbeing. Avoiding foods/drinks which don’t support your wellbeing on all those levels. Lots of vegetables and fruits. Avoiding cold or raw foods as these can be difficult to digest properly unless your digestive function is brilliant! Nourishing soups using coconut milk and light spices, white rice, chicken, white fish, pulses, cereals, soft cheeses, pitta bread, that sort of thing. Think nourishing and warming (but not spicy).
Pitta - Those who are predominantly pitta (fire and water), need to be mindful of excess heat in the body, especially if suffering with stress, migraines, infections, acidity, stomach ulcers, inflammatory conditions and loose stools, tendency to anger, impatience and intolerance, and should therefore absolutely avoid chilli, tomatoes, vinegars, citrus fruits, red meat and fish and red wine.
Kapha - Those who are predominantly kapha (water and earth) inclined, being mindful of excess mucus, especially if you are feeling sluggish, lazy, sticky, heavy, cold, digestion I slow, feeling unforgiving and having a hard time letting go, should absolutely avoid dairy products and heavy foods such as creamy pasta dishes, fried foods, rich curries and puddings etc.
Vata - Those who are predominantly vata inclined (air and ether) need to be mindful of feelings of anxiety, insomnia, nervousness, cold hands and feet and constipation (like rabbit droppings) and should avoid excessive bird foods such as nuts, seeds and dried fruits and other light and crunchy food such as crackers and crudities.
Anything else which helps?
· By maintaining proper function of the digestive system, only eating when hungry and avoiding excessive snacking.
· Yoga for promoting mental, emotional, spiritual and physical wellbeing. Practising gently and consciously to nourish and support the constitution, not creating further imbalance or exhaustion
· Taking adequate rest – Yoga Nidra (guided relaxation) can help and there are a plethora of free ones on my website.
· Appropriate exercise such as walking and swimming.
· Socialising with friends and family whose company you enjoy. Avoiding the company of anyone who adds stress to your life.
· Avoid ingesting anything which depletes you such as alcohol, smoking, drugs, junk food, social media, news channels etc
· A clean and clear environment – throughout junk and clutter!
· Getting out into nature when you can. Walking on the beach and cliffs. Noticing the sun and moon cycle, watching the stars at night, listening to the birds etc.
· A positive outlook. Reducing exposure to negativity, including places and people.
· Engaging in activities which make you feel happy such as reading, writing, artwork, singing, watching feel good films etc.
· Connecting into your heart and smiling and laughing as much as you can.
· Wearing/holding crystals.
· Taking Ayurvedic medicine where needed.
In short, only we can make the difference that we seek with our health and wellbeing. We have to take responsibility – it is no good waiting for someone else to do it for us because they can’t, we have to do it for ourselves. This is an empowering experience and once we take responsibility, we will wonder why we didn’t do it earlier.

Is your Pitta out of balance?
The Pitta dosha consists of the fire and water elements. It is responsible for digestion, metabolism, and energy production.
Tell me about Pitta people
Predominantly Pitta people are likely to be passionate, fiery, intense and goal orientated. Their body will likely be of moderate weight and height, with good flexibility, muscle strength and athletic ability. In theory, a Pitta person has a lustrous complexion, perfect digestion, abundant energy and good daily routines established.
Pitta dominated individuals have a strong intellect (often in the gifted/talented areas of learning) and have good concentration skills. Thus, Pitta types make excellent academics, scientist, leaders, entrepreneurs and pioneers. Good decision-making, rational processes with the ability to lead and teach are all therefore qualities of Pitta dominance.
When out of balance, you might find the Pitta person is outspoken, bossy, controlling and/or domineering. Pitta imbalance can also lead to someone becoming judgemental, jealous, impatient and angry. The excess heat in the mind can cause a Pitta person to be in constant conflict within their relationships, and find it hard to see another's point of view – this can create a rigid outlook on life and lead to controlling and paranoid behaviour.
What aggravates Pitta?
The Pitta dosha is aggravated by excessive amounts of the pungent/chilli, sour and salty tastes. It is also aggravated by excessive use of alcohol and caffeine. Furthermore, irregular daily routines i.e. shift work, and excess exposure to hot environments (including the sun) will disturb Pitta.
Pitta is also disturbed by doing things to excess, such as eating excessive amounts of red meat, red fish,oily and heavy foods, leafy greens, raw vegetables, meat from wild animals, vinegars, mustard and fermented sauces and pickles, chilli and turmeric, root vegetables and raw vegetables. It can also be disturbed by excessive consumption of hot drinks (hot in temperature and in quality such as caffeine, mint and green teas.
Furthermore an overly luxurious and hedonistic lifestyle can disturb Pitta, as well as sleeping all day, eating meals too frequently or too many meals in a day and/or eating while feeling angry, hatred or frustration.
When experiencing a Pitta imbalance, people will crave cooling foods, a cooling environment and cooler clothing. They might experience excess salivation, excess thirst and hunger, burning sensations in the body, and general excessive body heat and/or sweat.
What conditions indicate a Pitta imbalance?
Excess Pitta may manifest as skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, cellulitis, and/or fungal or bacterial infections.
Furthermore, when Pitta is in excess, a person is more likely to suffer from hyper acidity, heartburn, ulcers, IBS, bleeding conditions, menstrual or hormonal imbalances, UTIs, migraines, mouth ulcers, hot flushes, disorders of the mind such as depression, schizophrenia and destructive/violent behaviour, or eye conditions such as conjunctivitis.
Also, Pitta is connected to any form of inflammation such as rheumatoid arthritis or an acute injury like a sprain.
How can you tell you have a Pitta imbalance?
An increase in body temperature, craving for certain foods, irritation of the eyes, excessive sweating, increase in desire, hyperactivity, quick temper, anger and frustration, night sweats, nightmares, excessive desire for luxury lifestyle and fear of loss of such lifestyle, being excessively goal orientated, feeling of dissatisfaction and depression., excessive self-criticism and judgement, desire for excessive control of food, activity and desire, being increasingly impatient and intolerant, also erring towards rigidity in mind and being very self-righteous.
General guidelines for balancing Pitta
Balance work, rest and play: A Pitta person will tend to overwork and overdo and therefore struggle to place importance on rest and recovery. This must be made a priority, if only for a few moments a day. Yoga Nidra can be really helpful in this regard.
Pitta people define the word “hangry” and will become agitated very easily digestively and within the mind too, if not eating regularly enough (every 2-3 hours is ideal).
Spending regular time in nature can be extremely helpful. The natural environment (especially around trees, running water and mountains etc.) cools and softens the Pitta character and is the ideal space for rebalancing the Pitta elements in the body.
Gentle walking, swimming and yoga can be ideal.
Being out in the full moon and embracing cool breezes will calm a Pitta dominated person.
Pitta types need more sweet, bitter and astringent tastes added into the diet and have foods that are moist and easily digestible. Foods which have a sweet taste and cold potency) which doesn’t mean they are cold to eat - avoid raw and cold foods. Sweet and wholesome soups and stews are ideal, rice, pulses, sweet fruits, coconut, white fish and chicken.
Encourage a good laugh and a lightness to life. This will help the pitta person now take themselves and their purpose too seriously.
Spending time with friends who are not controlling and small children, family etc.
Pitta dominated people tend to favour clothes that are dominant in blues, greens and silver, which will help them stay cool and soothe their energy field.
Aromatherapy oils such as sandalwood, rose, jasmine, mint, lavender, fennel, and chamomile are all great for pacifying Pitta.
Holding pearls, Rose Quartz, Moonstone and Amethyst can help too.
Is there anything else I can do?
You can book in for a session with me and we can look at your diet and lifestyle together to see what might need tweaking. There are medicinal herbs which you can take, which will help to restore balance, especially for women subjected to the hot flushes of peri-menopause and those who are currently experiencing infertility. But really, the herbs can help with all disorders, just trying to bring a balance to the digestive fire will help. Please email me at emma@beinspiredby.co.uk for more information.

What is a dosha in Ayurveda?
Dosha in Ayurveda means the energies, which are formed by a combination of the different elements of air, ether, fire, water and earth.
These energies fundamentally construct and govern the workings of our entire bodily system. Additionally, the doshas can be observed in the very essence of all other sentient beings and nature itself.
As humans, we have all three doshas present in our bodies, Pitta, Kapha and Vata. These are made up as follows:
Pitta – fire and water
Kapha – water and earth
Vata – air and ether
What makes each of us unique however, is every individuals ratio or unique combination of the doshas. Some of us are dominated strongly by one dosha alone, while others share bi-doshic, being equally dominant in two doshas and for some, there is an equal balance between all three, making a tri-doshic body type.
Our doshic make up is made up from a combination of our parents genetics, our mothers pregnancy and health, our family history, time of conception, extrinsic environmental exposure and karmic factors too.
If you observe within your family, you will see that everyone is unique in their own way, despite sharing genetics. I am conscious that within my immediate family, our body frames, weight, hair colour and structure, skin, metabolisms and health susceptibilities all vary to some degree, albeit I can also see commonalities in dosha.
I am also conscious that as a mother, if my dosha is out of balance, if I am too fiery for example, because my Pitta is out of balance, then this will influence my children’s doshas and my youngest son, who is also Pitta-Kapha, will show more signs of fieriness too. If I am displaying a Vata imbalance and feeling anxious, then this will enhance my eldest’s tendency towards anxiety. This is the reason, as a mother and caretaker, we might take our own doshic balance seriously, because any imbalance affects those around us.
Ayurveda - an incredibly intelligent science - acknowledges our dosha individuality as the key foundation for lifestyle, well-being and healing strategies, not least for the individual but for the whole family.
If you are keen to explore your doshic imbalance then book in for an Ayurvedic session with me. During this session we will talk at length about your state of health and concerns, so that I can be clear on your imbalance and treat to this. It is only once the imbalance has been balanced that we may gain insight into your true constitution. For more information please click here.
I am biased of course, but working with Ayurveda since 2006 has been life changing. It is thousands of years old and has a philosophical underpinning, and offers a way of life that leads to greater consciousness as well as healing.
Belonging
There is a theme at the moment, around belonging. Where do we belong?
I feel it’s very simple. We come into this world on our own and we will leave on our own. Our sense of belonging begins and ends with our relationship with ourselves and with the Earth that we live on.
Yes, it can be helpful to feel a connection to our community - certainly I take pleasure from spending time with people in the Beinspired community, and I love the community down at Fort Grey, but I can survive without both; I don’t need either to define me or make me feel whole.
I believe it might be a conditioning of ours to believe that we need to feel part of something to experience a sense of belonging - the whole, “who is my tribe?” question, which often circulates among new age circles especially. Maybe also, we need to re-define our idea of friend, and how to be in relationship (in harmony) with others.
Certainly when we step out on the journey to know thyself we can find ourselves feeling quite alone. We don’t fit into the world we left behind, we might struggle to relate to friends, family members and colleagues, for example, and we haven’t yet reached a point of acceptance of our place in the world - so we long for something concrete to hold onto, some recognition of familiarity, so we don’t feel quite so alone.
But the truth is, when we do step out on this journey, it is one of aloneness. It is a solo journey. No one else can do it for us. Sure it can help to have friends and family we love who might buoy our faith and give us the courage to keep walking our path. But more often than not, they won’t understand us. Following a path of heart makes little sense to anyone else - at times it doesn’t even make sense to us because it has not been lived previously and the heart is not linear.
So yes, it can then be helpful to have people who understand, who know what it is like to tread this path, to live differently from the heart, to increasingly let go of the rational and intellectual take on things, to prioritise love, well-being and freedom over power and money in the patriarchal and capital sense, to step outside of mainstream and the comfort zone of conditioned living.
But even then, we have to do it alone.
We have to leave behind the comfort of the known and the certain, of all that we have believed and bought into - of all we thought we were to step into something much more authentic and real and yet unscripted and therefore unknown. There is a lag then between the person we were and the person we are becoming and it is this which causes us to cling for something which may give us a greater sense of belonging, because the aloneness can be scary, the unknown brings with it fear.
But to belong, means to know ourselves.
We cannot find it outside of ourselves. That was the old way - seeking validation of worth from others, people pleasing, sacrificing our sense of self to fit in. We can’t keep doing this. The path of heart, of greater authenticity, demands that we celebrate ourselves and all our differences, and settle more fully into an increasingly comfortable and wholesome relationship with our self, which is where we will find our true sense of belonging - not outside ourselves, but deep inside instead.
We will question it of course. We will wonder whether we have made the right decision to opt out of the mainstream, and we might consider a return. But we know that this won’t bring us the joy that we seek, that we will once again have to dumb down to fit in. For a time we are caught between a rock and a hard place, neither here nor there but somewhere in-between. This is a wonderful space to be if we can settle into it, a cauldron of potential, an opportunity to strengthen our faith, to cultivate greater trust and to lean more fully into our own true self, to find a greater sense of belonging deep within ourself.
You see, this journey teaches us trust, not only in ourselves but in the universe. It also offers us the potential to really know our own truth and to own and indeed celebrate our differences. We realise that only we can truly meet our own needs and we learn to forgive and let go of blaming others for not having met them previously.
We tighten our boundaries and take our energy seriously, protecting ourselves in the process. In short we take responsibility, not only for our health and wellbeing, but for treading lightly on this earth, while meeting our various obligations and earning an honest livelihood in the process.
There is this wonderful quote from Mary Angelou:
"You only are free when you realize you belong no place - you belong every place - no place at all. The price is high. The reward is great."
This quote does seem counter intuitive - how can you belong when you belong no place? Author Brené Brown (who wrote Braving the Wildness, about belonging) was asked this question in an interview with Lewis Howes and she said:
"I feel I belong everywhere I go, no matter where it is or who I'm with as long as I never betray myself. And the minute I become who you want me to be in order to fit in and make sure people like me is the moment I no longer belong anywhere."
It is not easy as I know from my own experience. It’s much easier - and yet much more painful - to be less of who we are to try to fit in, betraying ourselves in the process. It takes courage to be true and stand in our own power, even when this goes against the grain of friends, family and society. But actually following our path also gifts us courage and gives us our power back again; this is the paradox and the path to greater freedom in our lives.
It is my wish and my life mission to help others create a life on their own terms, without feeling the pressure to betray themselves and give up their authenticity and indeed joy, just to be accepted by others. We need to shift the perspective and learn to celebrate our differences, rather than giving ourselves a hard time for them. Anything which takes us towards greater freedom should be encouraged, not feared.
We need to keep breaking free from the binds of patriarchy, capitalism and consumerism and finding new ways to be, that help us to recognise that true belonging is found within each of us - it is never too late to become the person that we truly are, that truly belongs to each of us individually.
For those keen to step up into greater authenticity might benefit from my spiritual life coaching. This really helps people to love and accept their true self, gives them the courage to live their dreams - it doesn’t serve any of us to stay dumbed down and unhappy.
I am also intending to run a course on self-love this autumn as it seems such a travesty of our times for so many to waste this one precious life on planet Earth being their own worst enemy and constantly giving themselves a hard time - we need to shift the collective into something much more positive and heart felt. Keep an eye on the website for more information. You can also email me for more info at emma@beinspiredby.co.uk.
Have a wonderful week.
