How to build your child’s confidence

Over the last year, children have suffered immensely with time away from the classroom, little communication with peers and not being able to do the things that they once did, which all contributes to the decline of a child’s confidence. Building your child’s confidence from a young age is extremely important. It allows them to be able to try new things, able to have a positive mindset and ultimately makes them less fearful of disappointment and failure later on in life.

Eating out with Coeliac Disease

This is the last post in the series for Coeliac Awareness Week. Eating out is difficult for anyone with Coeliac disease or anyone with a food intolerance, you're putting your health in someone elses hand, and that's scary. I've had some horror stories whilst eating out which I won't disclose, way to much TMI, but for now here are some of my top restaurants, the Peterborough edition.

Affordable and Beautiful Hair with Organic Shop

I'm always on the hunt for affordable haircare. I think sometimes you get drawn into the expensive price tags of haircare, thinking that these are clearly the better products to purchase to make your hair look beautiful. When Organic Shop got in touch with their new affordable hair care I couldn't wait to try it. Not only are the products affordable, they are completely natural, with zero parabens, cruelty free and all packaging is recyclable, so you know you're doing your bit for the planet, especially with this plastic obsessed world we're living in at the moment!

The dreaded Cervical Screening (previously known as a smear test) letter landed on my door step a couple of weeks ago. Although I'm not 25 yet, the letter gets sent out 6 months before your birthday. I immediately had an 'oh shit' moment as the dreaded panic and worry set in. I then persisted to google smear tests (something I shouldn't have done!) and I read endless articles about the procedure and the results people got after. An even more of an 'oh shit' moment.

About AtaLoss Charity

Going through bereavement will challenge every person, no matter what stage in your life you are at. It is part of nature and life. Even though everyone faces this, it is not talked about and often, no one knows quite what to say. You can often feel isolated and alone when dealing with the loss of a loved one. The help is out there, but how do you find it?

Coeliac Diagnosis Story

As part of Coeliac Awareness Week, which is running from the 14th to the 20th of May, I'm going to bring you 'awareness' every day on my blog.
