About

Hi

In October 2024 I had a mini stroke or to give it its official name a transient ischaemic attack (TIA).

It is a serious illness, could have been worse, but none the less I am adjusting to it.

So the next series of blogs, starting today 29th June 2025, will document how I believe, for me personally, it was a stress related illness and how I am adjusting my life to a new normal.

Stress isn’t just a mental health issue. It’s a physical health risk. A real one.

And I had to learn that the hard way.

Theses posts will explore what happened, what I’ve learned, and how I’ve started to rebuild a different relationship with health—one that includes the nervous system, not just diet and exercise.

If you’ve ever felt like you were carrying more than your body could hold—or like no one takes your stress seriously—this is for you.

You’re not imagining it.
And it’s not “just stress.”
