Autoimmune Disease and Healing.

What does it take to heal?

‘Healing takes courage, and we all have courage, even if we have to dig a little to find it.’ Tori Amos.

Some days can be easier than others on your journey with autoimmune diseases. Some days it can take a lot of courage and strength for me not to reach for the comfort food that I know can bring on a flare for me. On these days, it is normally stress or exhaustion that is triggering the need for comfort food and so looking after my self as a whole is important.

As time has progressed I have found fewer cravings for comfort food, and when they do come around it is often at a point where I should perhaps slow down or take some time to look after myself and prioritise myself!

Our health is linked to our lives and how we live them. I love bringing people along on the journey and seeing the change within a six-month program.

Why not be part of that change?

Facebook Support Group

A Facebook group set up to support those living with Autoimmune Diseases or are living gluten-free, dairy-free life.

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.
