Step forward or step back?

Motivation

20 Jul

‘In any given moment we have two options: to step forward into growth or to step back into safety.’ Abraham Maslow

Have you had a moment in your life where you could step forward into the unknown or step backwards into safety? The unknown can be daunting. What we are used to feels safe and comfortable.

The choice is yours. It is okay to stay the same and step back into the safety of what you know.

Are you ready to create a positive change? I have found that sometimes removing the safety net is the best way to encourage us onwards!

I could have made a mountain of excuses not to change my life and my direction. Children, family, wrong timing, wrong place! In the end, I felt the need to make the change though and so I had to remove my safety net! I’m lucky that my family and friends supported my change in career.

When did you make a change and step forwards?

Are you thinking of stepping forward into growth?

You decide!! #onwardsandupwards

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.
