Thrive Gluten Free

Thrive Gluten Free

"Each day is a fresh start to embrace your health and thrive gluten-free on your journey with autoimmune challenges!" Emma Alexander-Cook.

Mindful moments of creativity can arise in the most unexpected places, and for me, that moment came on a beautiful hike.

As the sun began to rise, painting the horizon with hues of orange and pink, I laced up my hiking boots and set out into the crisp morning air. The forest was alive with the sounds of rustling leaves and chirping birds, setting the perfect backdrop for reflection. It was during this mindful moment, surrounded by nature’s beauty, that a thought crystalised in my mind: “Each day is a fresh start to embrace your health and thrive gluten-free on your journey with autoimmune challenges!”

As I climbed higher, the path became steeper, much like the struggles I faced daily. Each step echoed the resilience I had cultivated over time. I remembered the days when I felt overwhelmed by my dietary restrictions, feeling alienated while others enjoyed their meals without a second thought. But today, as I climbed, I realised something profound. With every challenge came a chance to rediscover myself and my strength.

With the trees swaying gently around me, I visualised a life without limitations. A life where my gluten-free choices were not a burden but a beacon of self-care and empowerment. I envisioned vibrant vegetables, hearty grains like quinoa, and delightful gluten-free treats that nourished my body and spirit. The idea that embracing these choices could lead me to thrive instead of merely survive filled me with a sense of purpose.

I reached a stunning viewpoint and paused to take it all in. The breathtaking landscape stretched before me, a reminder of life's vast possibilities. Just like this view, the journey toward health was expansive and beautiful, filled with new adventures waiting to unfold.

As I breathed in the fresh mountain air, I made a silent promise to myself: to honour my body, cherish my health, and embrace each day as an opportunity for growth. I would no longer allow autoimmune challenges to define my journey.

I continued my hike with a renewed spirit, knowing every step taken on this path was part of a grander adventure. I was ready to face the world with open arms, knowing that each day was a fresh start to thrive gluten-free and wholeheartedly embrace the vibrant life ahead.

As I descended, feeling lighter than ever, I couldn't help but smile, knowing that I was choosing to live my best life, no matter the obstacles.

If you ever find yourself feeling overwhelmed on your journey, remember that asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. We all started somewhere, and I know firsthand how daunting the path can feel at times. But don’t forget, every great achievement begins with a single step, and you don’t have to walk this road alone. Reach out, share your struggles, and lean on those who are here to support you. Together, we can turn challenges into triumphs! Embrace the journey, and let it inspire you to grow and shine!

I hope you have enjoyed this information. Until next time!

Emma Alexander-Cook.

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.

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.
