New eBook

I am very excited. I have finished my third eBook and just sent it to the designer. It is like the birth of a child - not an actual child of course but symbolically. The working title is Baring it all.

On recovery from breast cancer

Lately, I've been writing tips for those moving forward from breast cancer.

Tip #1 Manage your health and recovery

Perhaps the hardest and the easiest tip is that you are responsible for managing your health. That involves eating as well as possible, sleeping well, exercising, having a low stress lifestyle, being optimistic and talking to specialists quickly when things are not right.

These things sound simple but there is so much involved in living healthfully. It requires constant prioritising, learning new skills, organisation and being assertive about your health needs.

Some of your health is not within your control but a lot of it is. So influence the things that you can by choosing health each day.

Action: Get your health foundations right; commit to eating a bit better and exercising today. Seek support from friends and family to improve your health.
