‘Always remember you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.’ Christopher Robin

Do you believe that we are what we believe we are!

Our thoughts of ourselves either build us up or tear us down.

What do you think about positive thinking?

How do you speak about yourself and others?

Do you speak in a meaningful way to create a confident outlook?

If you have a problem with negative thoughts or actions, then you could try some of these suggestions on how to turn these into positive thoughts:

  1. Observe your body language and, if necessary, change it. Think confidence!

  2. Talk it out. Sometimes simply having a conversation with someone can help remove the negativity that builds up inside of us. It gives us perspective so we can deal with the root problem.

  3. Calm your mind for one minute of all thought. A simple meditation of deep breathing and emptying your mind is like a system reboot for our thoughts.

  4. Change how you think. Remove should and choose could. Try and put a positive spin on things. It isn’t easy but worth the effort.

  5. Creativity gives us an outlet for thoughts. It can help us explore our emotions, so try writing, painting, photography.

  6. Walking can clear your mind. Be mindful of your environment around us and distance yourself from your internal thoughts for ten minutes a day.

  7. Gratitude is so important. Even on a bad day, something would have happened which we can be thankful for. It may be as simple as someone making you a drink at work.

Finally, remember, you are brave, you are strong, you are smart.

Emma Alexander-Cook

My name's Emma. I've been living gluten-free for over 25 years, and I've been dairy-free for over five years.

Health and Auto-immune Diseases

I have auto-immune diseases and expected to be on medicine for the rest of my life, but I didn't want to live like that. My rheumatology Doctor was so supportive of the change I wanted to make, and with their help, I now manage my auto-immune diseases by being strict with my diet.

It can be quite frightening when you first find out you have to change the way you eat but for some of us' Food is our medicine.'

I have several websites, write blogs, and I'm currently in the process of writing a book.

I trained to be Holistic Health Coach, Meditation and Mindfulness Teacher and Certified Gluten Free Practitioner in order to heal myself, my family and others who find themselves on the same journey as myself.

Photography

Our love for photography started on our travels. We wanted to capture images of the areas we travelled to both for our own records and for our family back at home. Some of these images were reproduced as watercolours. Our favourite images we display at home and friends often asked where we had purchased the pictures! Now you can purchase them online directly from us.

Coaching and Consultancy

Previously an IT Manager my skill set has come in very handy as I am both a Health Coach and also offer consultancy for small business starts up and fellow Health Coaches. This has included building websites and online profiles.

Our Family

Family is everything to me! We have a family of four boys where the age difference between the youngest and the eldest is 18 years. Two of our sons are also Gluten Free and Dairy Free. Emma is a Health Coach who specialises in helping individuals and families achieve their health and wellness goals. Ian runs his own business which began developing a Race Timer for diecast model cars.
