The Natural Wellness Journal

Grief comes in many forms, not just the death. It comes from being separated from loved ones, loosing a job, a home, a relationship, an education, a childhood.

We know that the aftermath of this pandemic is going to be massive as people struggle with mental health and disease that hasn't been detected or worse, caused by the stress of their situation turning into dis-ease.

I was surprised listening to The Chief Medical Officer and Head Nurse during lockdown that there was little or no mention of the immune system, like they don't know that we have one....but we do and now is the time to build it.

We don't know if this virus will ever go away or keep mutating or when the next one will come, so maybe we have to learn how to live with them? If we live in sanitise isolation for too long, will our immune systems just pack up? Or will doctors of the future will check our vitamins and minerals and guide us to better health, so the NHS can become a health management system, not a disease management system?

I am not an expert on anything but I have listened to thousands of hours of those who are, so I have put together the best bits of my journey to share with you but everybody's is different. Take the bits that suit you,your lifestyle.Map your own path. There is no right or wrong. Listen to your body, listen to your gut, listen to your heart....it will tell you.

This journal is no substitute for medical advice, just another perspective to help healing if you wish to include anything.

Please always consult your doctor for anything that worries you.

I had a poster on my bedroom wall in my teenage years. A full moon shining over the sea. It simply said

The important thing is this Not what you are
But what you can become

My desperation has been my inspiration and I hope that you might find something here to inspire and help you.
