🌿 In Support of National Self Care Week: Discover the Six Pillars of Lifestyle Medicine

Self-care isn’t just about taking time out — it’s about building a foundation for lifelong health.

At Chelmsford Private GPs, we’re proud to offer Lifestyle Medicine, an evidence-based approach that helps prevent, manage, and even reverse chronic conditions through positive lifestyle changes.

This National Self Care Week, we’re highlighting the six pillars of Lifestyle Medicine — small, sustainable actions that can have a big impact on your wellbeing:

🌱 Mental Wellbeing – Practice mindfulness, seek support, and nurture your mental health.
💪 Physical Activity – Move more to boost energy and reduce disease risk.
🥗 Healthy Diet – Fuel your body with balanced, nutritious foods.
😴 Sleep – Prioritise rest to restore mind and body.
🚭 Minimise Harmful Substances – Reduce alcohol, to***co, and other risks to your health.
🤝 Healthy Relationships – Stay connected; strong social bonds are key to happiness and longevity.

Our GPs can help you incorporate these pillars into your daily life with a personalised, practical plan for better health.

✨ Self-care starts with small steps — and we’re here to guide you every step of the way.

Stress can feel like an unavoidable part of modern life — especially when you’re balancing work, family, and everything in between. But your wellbeing matters, and managing stress is vital to protecting both your mental and physical health.

At Chelmsford Private GPs, we understand the science behind stress –and the effect it has on your sympathetic nervous system with long term damaging release of the stress hormone cortisol. From headaches, sleep disturbances to depression, anxiety and burnout, recognising the signs early can make all the difference.

🧘‍♀️ Simple steps to reduce your sympathetic nervous system and cortisol:
-Have boundaries and make sure you rest everyday
-Move your body everyday – any movement counts
-Spend time outdoors to recharge
-Have fun and laugh. Life is there to be enjoyed!

Sometimes, stress needs more than self-care. If it’s starting to impact your health, relationships, or sleep, we’re here to help. Our GPs offer supportive consultations to help you understand and manage stress effectively.

💙 You don’t have to navigate stress alone.

Book an appointment today and take the first step towards balance and better wellbeing.

What can you expect from a perimenopause or menopause consultation at Chelmsford Private GPs?

First and foremost – a good listening ear. 👂

We take the time to really hear your story: your symptoms, your concerns, and what’s happening in your life right now. This helps us build a complete picture of what you’re going through, so together we can make the best decisions for you.

Depending on your needs, we may:
✔️ Suggest blood tests to rule out other causes (like anaemia or thyroid issues)
✔️ Carry out a brief examination
✔️ Prescribe a safe trial of HRT (if it’s right for you)
✔️ Arrange a follow-up and liaise with your NHS GP

Every woman’s journey is different – you may or may not need HRT, but our promise is the same: to ensure you feel heard, supported, informed, and cared for. 💙

📅 Book your consultation today and take the first step toward feeling more like yourself.
