Hi there, I’m Laura, welcome to my blog.

After years of struggling with various chronic health issues, I finally hit rock bottom after developing inflammatory arthritis following a serious concussion. I was very unwell, very immobile and in so much pain I didn’t know what to do with myself!  Something different needed to happen, so I decided to change my life around completely.  I have approached this in the non-conventional way and adopted a whole food, plant based lifestyle, along with a lot of necessary lifestyle and behavioural changes, with incredible results.  This is not to say I’m cured, there is no cure, I still suffer from flare ups, though thankfully not very often anymore.

I’m mum to Isobel and Mollie and we live in the beautiful county of Devon in England with my husband Paul.  I love reading, karate, travelling, cooking and being in nature. This blog is a way to give back; I have spent countless hours researching and many more in discomfort, sorrow or sheer agony and have learnt so much.  Not just about plant based living but how to manage conditions such as mine. How to still function with family life and live in the way I always wanted despite the illnesses.  I want to share all that I have learnt and also my experiences. If I can help just one person feel like they are not alone, then it would have been worth it.  My passion for healing myself has grown into helping you, despite the adversity, become the best versions of yourselves.

Laura
