Water is life, and clean water means health

Three months ago, I was addicted to caffeine. It would take me several coffees in the morning before I could function or felt awake and several more to get myself through a day. I didn’t sleep well, and I knew what the problem was but couldn’t bring myself to break the habit. Then one day, I just decided. I put a glass of water in the fridge with some berries in it and vowed I would drink that in the morning before I drank my coffee. I felt so alert that I did the same for a week. The next week it became two glasses, and today I drink coffee mid-morning if I want to rather than because I need to. Water is life; it gives us energy and nourishes our body. We are lucky that we have clean water where we live, and it’s so vital that we ensure everyone in the world is as fortunate. There are many charities which help provide water and sanitation to those who need it. Next time you are stuck for a gift for someone who has everything then consider giving the gift of helping others less fortunate.

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.
