It’s Eating Disorders Awareness Week, and we’re here to remind you that you’re not alone 💜 This week’s theme is Community because we know how important safe and supportive communities are for those recovering, those caring for someone in recovery, and for those to recognise eating disorders signs and support that person towards the help that they need.

Beat will be sharing advice for how to get involved in your community, from how to find your own safe spaces, to how to create one yourself. Get involved with Eating Disorders Awareness Week 2026 today!

What a great experience attending the Twist museum in London. Illusions, perception, understanding differences, it was fascinating.

For some people, symptoms of seasonal affective disorder (SAD) can feel more noticeable or harder to manage during the winter.

But small things can help:

🔵 try some physical activity – anything that gets you moving
🔵 make the most of natural light – getting outside or sitting near windows
🔵 plan for tougher days – shifting stressful tasks or building in more rest

There’s also treatment available if you’re finding things really tough – such as light therapy, talking therapies or medication.

This week is Grief Awareness Week, and a chance to recognise how any type of loss can affect our wellbeing.

There’s no right or wrong way to feel — grief affects everyone differently.

If you're finding things difficult, there’s support that can help.

Self care - can cost nothing but time, a tea bag, appropriate clothing and a walk in nature.

This weekend we took a break away from the stresses of life to be together with our dogs in Speyside. It’s been the tonic I needed after a busy year of work plus six months of caring for an ill relative.

Never underestimate time out and the value in taking some rest and relaxation. Without it, we all deplete in energy. Life is for living 💕
