Taking the plunge

Written by: Dianne Edmonds Posted on 24 Nov 2012 0

On the other side, three days later, since writing this - is experience, a lot more ideas, and the satisfaction from having spent two days with some awesome fitness professionals. Looking back and looking forwards is always interesting, and to see how far we have come, we often need to stop for a moment and reflect.

What matters most?

Written by: Dianne Edmonds Posted on 15 Nov 2012 0

It was interesting at a new mum’s group to hear the talk about postnatal adjustment and the changes the new mum’s experience, as they learn and grow with their baby. Motherhood is an unfolding process, and a journey of discovery with its joys and challenges. One key point that came out, is the importance of knowing yourself and what matters most to you each day.

Is Anyone Listening

Written by: Dianne Edmonds Posted on 08 Nov 2012 1

Many years as a physiotherapist have been spent listening to women, who have felt like no one is listening. As a mother and wife I can understand and relate to the times when it seems like you are not being listened to. Deep in your heart there is often that inner need that is not being met, that source of life that you can tap into that makes your eyes spark and your passion stir.

I love how you mentioned that the "brain reserve can be used and needs to be refilled," because it is very true. If you train your brain, you can learn to use more of it. By doing this, you will become a smarter human being.

Lori 6/02/2014 7:09:12 AM Oh you are so funny! I started reading her book but kept forgetting about it (bought it as an ebook - so not the same as a book in your hands)! I bought some Tiaras to give to patients and now I will go buy some marbles! Thanks for sharing, Dianne!

Sarah 29/10/2013 5:31:53 PM "Dr Sara talks about womens’ tendency to “over providing”, which drains our energy, kills our sex life and undermines our families happiness. She also talked about the “muffin top” ie belly fat that won’t move, sugar cravings and women needing a glass of wine to sooth themselves and to settle down at the end of the day."

I think she might be onto something. I can certainly relate to most of these 'symptoms'.

Thanks Dianne

Glad you have survived the move and all seems to be going well. I love your website. I'm looking forward to having more time to click around here!
My moving tip is make up the beds as soon as you can in the new house (and don't cover the beds with stuff) know where the kettle is packed for emergency cups of tea and order take away dinner for the first night.
See you
