WOW!! There is so much information out there, I don't know about you, however; I feel that it's utterly overwhelming at times. How do we make sense of any of it? When I am looking for advice...what constitutes an expert? How do I manage to reconcile what seems logical to me with information and / or recommendations from the powers that be or the experts, which does not seem logical to me? All of these questions have been going round and round in my head at various times in the last few months (well, to be honest, probably all of my life!) I have a very clear and simple way to get myself out of the overwhelm state and clarify what is the right thing for me. It´s called Free Flo Living. Now I am not saying that it always works first time, or that I always go to it right away. There are times where, it seems, I like to torture myself a bit, you know, amp up the stress, feed the fear monkey. Anyone empathise with that? Over the years, though, I have worked at finding out what works for me. I had to, or in all honesty, I would not be sitting here writing this. What I have discovered is that I am " my expert", YOU are "your expert". We all know instinctively what is true for us / right for us. We have an inner knowing that many do not trust because over time it has been contradicted and over-powered by our environment. We are born with this powerful tool and from our early years are taught to ignore it in favour of people who know better/more than us and, we are told, know better. ![]() Babies come into this world and they are love. They let us know what they want, when they are happy and when they are not, and they cannot talk yet! They are the centre of the universe, theirs and the people around them. Normally, no one judges a baby; no one has any expectations of a baby (except that he/she will sleep, eat, cry, and poop!) There may be expectations of responsibility on the parents but not on the baby. ![]() Then the baby becomes an infant/toddler, and that is when the judgments and expectations begin. There are growth and development markers to meet. Parents feel under pressure and that transfers to the infant/toddler. ![]() Oh yes, and then the infant/toddler grows into a child, and there are even more influences in their environment. School, religion, new friends of their own. ![]() As the child becomes a teenager, the environment changes again, and there are even more influences. They are now aware of independence, responsibility and choices and oh, it was so much simpler to be a baby, wasn´t it. ![]() And here we are , all grown up, adults. How did that happen so quickly? We have control over our own life, don´t we? We can do whatever we want, can´t we? Why then do so many people (grown-ups) feel limited, unfulfilled, and unhappy? Why do so many people feel as though they have no choice and no control? Simply put, because we do not connect to that inner knowing, we do do not allow ourself to trust that we know best, that we are our own expert. We all need love, support and connection. We all need to be able to get advice and knowledge from different perspectives, its how we figure out what works for us. No one knows everything, and yet, we all know everything; everything that we need to know. We know what makes us happy and what does not. There are things that happen to us and around us that we have no control over BUT we always have control over how we feel; how we react and respond to anyone and everything. When you decide to make how you feel the most important thing in your life, you take responsibility; you have response-ability; you be come response-able. Changes happen when we connect to how we feel and then take 100% responsibility for it. Take yourself from victim to victor. Would you like to know more about Free Flo Living? Find out here.

Think for a minute. When you cut yourself, do you worry that it will keep bleeding out and not heal? Usually, the answer to that will be no-we know that in a healthy body, the blood will clot and the cut will heal. When you break a bone, sometimes you need to have it "set" so it heals properly. The doctor will align the bone to make sure it knits together optimally, but the body does the healing. If you leave the bone misaligned, it will still knit together and heal. The trick is to know when you need to give your body a bit of help. Some of the times when you need to help your body are:
In a nutshell, what happens is whenever you get some kind of attack your immune system kicks in to defend you. It has three lines of defence (soldiers) that keep your body safe. Your body is very clever.
FeetGood morning! It’s Footsie Friday and guess what ...we are talking about FEET!! Yes, you heard me FEET. How important are our feet? Did you know that there are 26 bones and 33 joints in each foot? Wow, all so well connected and helping us to move, fast, slow and swerve in every which way. What about the weight they carry around every minute of every day! So how well do you look after your feet then? “The human foot is a masterpiece of engineering and a work of art. “ - Leonardo da Vinci - Today I am encouraging you to play Footsie, you can share with a partner or go solo and pamper your feet! The soles of your feet absorb essential oils faster than any other part of the body as well as having reflexology points therefore you can help to strengthen your immune system by massaging with a mix of Olive oil with added Oregano, Eucalyptus, Tee Tree and Lemon essential oils – see the attached recipe. Do some research too and find what works for you and helps you to “Feel Good” after all - what is the only thing that matters? “How YOU Feel!” “If someone wants to suck your toes, those toes should be worth sucking.” - Margaret Atwood - Whatever you do today – have a Fabulous Footsie Friday! Zoot ♡Zoot ♡ Zoot ♡ #FreeFloLiving #KISS SkinGood morning!
It's Thrilling Thursday! Today we are going to take a look at how to pamper your body, the skin. Did you know that the skin is the largest organ of your body? Skin is closely linked to your immunity therefore always important and especially at this moment in time. The skin protects us , helps regulate our temperature, allows us to feel and is vital in the production of Vitamin D. I´m comfortable in my own skin, no matter how far it´s stretched... Haha! - Dolly Parton - Today I am giving you a recipe for a natural homemade body wash and then a moisturising body oil which will make your skin feel refreshed and so soft. You can choose to add some essential oils of your choice depending on you preference and skin type. So , carrying on with the theme of these posts I want to say that pampering yourself and taking care of your body is one of the number 1 things you can do to get ready for the lifting of quarantine. Every part of your body has a role to play in your immunity and that immunity is essential to make sure that you and others are well and stay well. 100% responsibility guys, remember its down to you, no one else! Dressed in the lions skin, the ass spread terror far and wide. - Jean de La Fontaine - And the best thing about it all is that it helps you "Feel Good" and after all that´s all that really matters. Have a Thrilling Thursday! Zoot ♡Zoot ♡ Zoot ♡ #FreeFloLiving #KISS Wonderful Wednesday!Good morning!
It's Wonderful Wednesday! Today we are focusing on the hands. ~ "It is in your hands to create a better world for all who live in it ." ~ Nelson Mandela Did you know that our hands are unique to us as humans? There are 27 bones in each hand that are intricately connected to allow maximum movement. Our hands are able to nurture, soothe, hold on to , repair and let go when needed. Your hands , like the rest of your body sometimes need extra care. There are so many things you can do to care for your hands. My personal favourite is to exfoliate and then moisturise while massaging the hands and fingers. This is very relaxing and also helps the blood flow. Below you will find some tips for hand care. Take some time to find what makes your hands feel good. Remember what´s the only thing that matters? " How YOU Feel!" Have a Wonderful Wednesday! Zoot ♡Zoot ♡ Zoot ♡ #FreeFloLiving #KISS |
