A memory popped up…
A moment that had been captured so beautifully.

Dani thanking Dr. Robert Melillo for teaching his mum, so he could talk.

Sometimes we get so busy doing the work, carrying the weight, pushing forward, that we forget to pause and witness how far we’ve come. And then Allah sends these quiet reminders.

This journey was never easy. It was filled with fear, learning, unlearning, tears, and relentless faith. But moments like this remind me why I do what I do, not just for my own children, but for every child who deserves a voice and every parent who needs hope.

Grateful beyond words for mentorship, for science with heart, for my son’s resilience… and for these gentle reminders.

Alhamdulillah. Always. 🤍

Continuing Professional Development (CPD) isn’t just a requirement, it’s a responsibility, a commitment, and a promise.

A promise to the children and families I serve…
A promise to remain informed, updated, and aligned with the latest research…
And a promise to continuously elevate the quality of care I provide.

I’m proud to share my Re-certified Autism Specialist (CAS) credential, another step in my ongoing journey of learning, growing, and staying current in a field that evolves every single day.

In neurodevelopment, functional neurology, and autism support, new insights are constantly emerging, from the gut–brain axis to brain connectivity, sensory processing, behavior, and advanced therapeutic approaches. Staying updated through CPD ensures that every child I work with receives the most effective, evidence informed, and compassionate interventions possible.

CPD keeps us sharp.
CPD keeps us ethical.
CPD keeps us excellent.

Most importantly, CPD keeps us anchored in our mission: to help children thrive, families hope again, and communities grow stronger.

Here’s to lifelong learning and to serving with knowledge, integrity, and heart.

Feeling deeply grateful to witness and share groundbreaking work like this. This research beautifully highlights what so many of us see clinically every day. The profound connection between retained primitive reflexes, hemispheric integration, and cognitive improvements in children with autism.

A heartfelt congratulations to Dr. Robert Melillo and the entire team for contributing such important science to the field. Your dedication continues to validate the root cause approach and gives families around the world real hope for measurable change. Thank you for your commitment to teaching researching and educating.

The outcomes of this study reinforce what we stand for
Primitive reflexes matter.
The brain can change.
Targeted hemispheric work is powerful.
With the right interventions, children can thrive.

Honoured to learn from this work, apply it daily, and witness the transformations it brings to our children and families.
Here’s to continued research, deeper understanding, and brighter futures for every child. 🙏❤️

Today marks the start of a new addition to our daily wellness routine. LET'S see how it unfolds.

Teknon Camel Milk, enriched with ERDS™.
Reactions at home were mixed Zoya wasn’t impressed, 'ugh, gross, tastes like expired baby milk'. Lol, but Dani found it 'okay' and I’m confident both will adjust soon!

As a firm believer in the gut brain connection, I emphasize that healing both the gut and brain lays the foundation for optimal neurofunction. Supporting gut microbiota and reducing inflammation can make a remarkable difference in focus, regulation, and cognitive performance.

Small changes lead to powerful results.. one mindful step at a time.

Exciting update

I’ve officially reactivated my chiropractic licence in the UK! 🙌

I’m now looking for a treatment room to rent in Bedfordshire (or nearby areas) where I can see patients during my regular visits to the UK. Ideally, a professional, welcoming space within a clinic, wellness centre, or multidisciplinary setting.

If anyone has leads, recommendations, or knows of available rooms, I’d really appreciate your help. Please DM me or comment below, any suggestions would be great!

Thank you in advance for your support 💫
