Do we ever really stop and listen to the people around us or are we just so involved in our own lives that we just don’t have the time? 

Today, as always, I talked with some great people. If you look carefully you can sometimes see the sadness behind their eyes. When someone talks to you next time, listen not only with your ears but also your eyes and heart. You might just change that person’s day.

What have I been up to? Last week I was invited up to London to experience two treatments that I had never experienced before.

The first was a session with David Jarvis from www.thinkpossible.co.uk. David is a movement therapist with clinics in Central and West London. He works with clients who suffer from long-term pain, who have been unable to find a solution after seeing the usual therapists. It’s an amazing concept using movement adjustment of the whole body rather than just a specific area and it’s used when treating an injury to achieve a long-term solution to pain. I was amazed after just an hour how different my body felt and how my range of movement was increased.

The second session was an Ayurvedic consultation and body massage. An ancient treatment that I notice in the media the Duchess of Cornwall is trying when she recuperates in India. It’s based on an ancient Indian healing system. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. I was so relaxed I have no idea how I stayed awake on the train home. Jamie Chalmers, the owner of Rasyana Ayurvedic www.rasayana.co.uk, sent a report about me the following day. I discovered that my Dosha (one of three bodily humors that make up one's constitution) was Pitta (controls digestion, metabolism, and energy production) and I scored 21 on my Sattvic (pure mind) score. Apparently one of the highest scores he’d ever seen.

I can recommend both experiences if you are based in or visiting London or Edinburgh.

Today I met up with a lovely lady called Lindsay who, along with the rest of her family, is raising money for Matilda, their two-year-old daughter who has cerebral palsy. She can have an operation to help her walk if they can raise £70,000. I have donated a crystal for them to auction later in the year and will continue to help them until they reach their goal. Their website is www.walkingmatildausa.com. Every penny helps. I look forward to seeing Matilda in her sparkly shoes once she’s had the operation.

What’s planned for the rest of the week? Well I have two Halloween aqua parties lined up on Wednesday that will hopefully raise money for Matilda.  Who knows what other mischief I’ll get up to? It’s the week for ghosts, ghouls and little gremlins like me! Of course on Wednesday night I’ll be busy on my broomstick!

Happy Halloween everyone, stay safe if you’re trick or treating.

Why not book an appointment with me at my Harley Street clinic or in one of my clinics down in Sussex.

If someone had suggested to me a few years ago that I'd be running round a field chased by zombies and ghouls just outside Crawley I would have laughed.

Tulley's farm has put a lot of effort into providing entertainment for all at their spooktacular event that runs for two weeks of the year. I recommend it if you haven't been. Jonathan Ross was there enjoying it the other day. Not sure if I consider him more scary than the attractions!

My Kung Fu training is going well, I guess it helps having a 1:1 instructor. I love the challenge of learning the next section each week.

Hypnotherapy can help you with fear of the unknown, or to help improve your sporting performance using techniques like visualisation, focusing and relaxation.

I also think it's so important to link with other professionals. One of the things I have tried to do in the last few months is meet up with others in Sussex and London. A good network is such an important asset to any business. 

Sunday mornings are for reading the papers? Not for me. I headed up to central London to become part of the Matt Roberts team, massaging VIPs
after their 13 mile run round the great parks in London.

Luckily the weather gods provided the perfect running conditions. Not too hot, but a gorgeous sunny day. Trees with their autumnal colours looking like they’d been brushed on by a rainbow.

Bright and early I headed up to London hoping that the security guard would have my name on the list, luckily it was.

So who did I get to meet? Well the first person I bumped into was Ben Fogle, a lovely guy who you can’t help but slightly swoon over with that sexy voice and rugged good looks, his wife is stunning as well and what a lovely couple.
 
I heard earlier in the day that Matt Roberts was there leading a group of kids like a pied piper.  
 
So with my massage thumbs switched on, a steady stream on VIPs came onto the couches from 11am until we stopped around 2pm.
 
Celebrity runners this year included Katherine Jenkins, Jenni Falconer, Sophie Raworth, and Adam Woodyatt
(Ian from Eastenders).
 
I am most proud of Team Glamour from the Condé Nast Magazine group. I started working with a group from their editorial staff earlier in the year when most hadn’t even started to run. I felt like a proud Mum as they all came into the tent after completing their run. I would happily work with any of them again and they were raising money for a great cause, MIND, a charity involved in mental health problems.
 
It was definitely worth getting up bright and early to say I was part of this amazing experience and I would happily give up another day in the future if the opportunity arose.
 
What’s planned for this week? Tomorrow I’m off for my third Kung Fu 1:1 session. I absolutely love it.  I started to learn 15 years ago but work got in the way. Now as I am my own boss I can give myself time off to go!
 
Have a great week and don’t forget to ‘Pay it Forward’ if you get the chance.

The weeks just fly by like leaves off a tree in Autumn on a blustery day, as Winnie the Pooh would say!

This week has been a week about regrouping and taking time to stop saying yes to everything that comes through the door. 

It’s been a great week and I’ve meet up with loads of lovely ladies from the Mumpreneurs Haywards Heath group on Tuesday which was newly formed this week. I’ve signed up and I’m now an official member of the gang!

Thursday saw me head off to Harley Street and whilst walking down Oxford Street, I was asked to be interviewed by CNN about queuing, a truly British pastime!  Do I queue? Yes I do, would I pay to get there faster? Yes I would. How about you?

The thing that strikes me about this week is friendship. Each person has their own way of showing friendship. For some it might be a phone call or message, some a coffee, some are just there without saying a word. How often do you walk down the street and avoid eye contact of the person coming towards you, when a smile might have brightened their day. My challenge to you is try it…you might just enjoy it.
