What is a goal?

To achieve a goal, you have to make plans. You have to decide how you are going to go about achieving your goal.

A magic lamp though a wonderful idea, is not reality. Wishing on a star is not a plan. A star simply won’t get the job done.

We have to achieve the goal. We need to lay out a clear plan (this is often the biggest challenge we face with a new venture).

We need to commit to the plan.

Commit to creating and visualizing how you’re going to get where you want to go. I love using Vision Boards for this bit. There may be many steps on the way, but when I break them down I find them less frightening and easier to achieve. Sometimes I have to remind myself that few people reach and attain their goals immediately!

Once the steps have been created, all that’s left is to follow them!

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.
