Hello December

Hello December

Another year, another December. Decorations will be going up, presents will be wrapped, food purchased and holiday’s planned, but how different will your Christmas be this year? How different has this year been for so many of us! Last year we had our family visiting us in Hong Kong, and I could never have imagined this year would be so different. Looking back now, that made last Christmas and the holidays spent them even more special. As we say Hello to December this year, what will you be doing to make it memorable for those that you love? We aren’t going to be close to our family this year as we are in another country and all plans we had of spending time with our boys and our family have evaporated. We still hope to make the holidays unique and fun, though. We will spend time having jokes and talking and sharing a glass of cheer over the internet. This year will be special but in a completely different way. Hello December. Let’s sit back, make our plans and see how the month turns out!

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.
