snuggle in time

I was given the December issue and,

since then, have bought a copy

every month. I feel with every page

I turn that there is an article

written just for me. I love it! The

March issue cover indicates there is

an article on being more resilient,

which is perfect. I will snuggle in

and have a good read. – Sam

healthy messages

Thank you so much Good Health &

Wellbeing for publishing articles

on such a wide range of topics.

I subscribed a few months ago,

having previously abandoned health

magazines for their bias, dogma and

overt commercialism. Wow! What can

I say, other than I am so impressed by

your approach. There are very few

health magazines on the market that

recognise women as individuals with

differing needs – you have definitely

raised the bar! I love how you provide

a wide range of approaches, views

and opinions, rather than the ‘one

size fits all’ standpoint that is so

often taken by the media and health

professionals. Having personally

suffered for years from mental health,

confidence and body image issues,

I especially love how your messages

aim to empower women to accept and

love themselves, and to understand

that each of us has our own journey,

joys, challenges and experiences

through life. Again, I sincerely thank

you! – Shireen

count your

blessings

It was great to read your

‘Rise to the Challenge’

article about resilience in

your March issue, which

really resonated with me. I always

thought I was made of pretty

tough stuff; surviving a couple

of divorces and the early death of

my dad to cancer among other

things. However, my December

2018 diagnosis of operable breast

cancer put paid to all of that. I

thought I could sail through it

but discovered the whole notion

of “trucking on” didn’t cut it for

me. I fell into a huge emotional

hole because I didn’t stop and

acknowledge the enormity of

what I was dealing with. The

biggest thing I learned with

the benefit of 20/20 hindsight, it

would have served me better

to stop, breathe, acknowledge

and respect what I was going

through. I need to accept the pain

and be in the moment, then put

on my ‘big girl pants’ and get on

with it. – Christine

PS I’m a lucky gal – with a great

prognosis, I dodged a bullet and

feel very blessed!
