Finding Balance: Lessons from My Whippet's Health Struggles and My Own & how Kinesiology Helped Us Heal After Heartbreak

Jo Hanks


My gorgeous boy Charlie (rescue whippet) hasn't been well, not wanting to get up in the mornings, or go for a walk and then wouldn't eat breakfast and would pick at his dinner. Last week we had to rush him to the emergency vets twice and now know he has inflamed stomach lining - gastritis - and it has ulcerated causing him alot of pain. When looking at the time line, his malaise, low energy & mood started when Bree died back in December and due to his sporadic eating it has brought his body into an acidic state causing imbalance in the form of stomach ulcer.


Why am I telling you this? The exact same happened to me in 2009 when I left my marriage & experienced very nasty divorce proceedings and to my Mum when my parents marriage broke up.


When we are out of balance we need to look at the whole picture to fully heal. The symptoms are the cries for help from body, mind and soul showing us change is needed in one or more areas of our life - mental, physical, emotional & spiritual. This is why I'm a Kinesiologist to help people regain balance in their life by looking at all the pieces of the pie:


  • What was going on for you when the symptoms started?

  • How are you sleeping?

  • Give me a weeks food diary so I can see where the gaps are in nutrition,

  • Are you hydrating?

  • Are you having a poo every day?

  • What do you do for fun, relaxation and rest?

  • How are you sleeping?

  • How are your relationships at work, socially and home/family?


I want the full picture and to move forward with bespoke lifestyle and nutrition suggestions for small wins. No big changes that aren't achievable as from small wins come big victories.....balance awaits you. Not one thing will heal you alone it's the synergistic effect that we are looking for.


This is what I'm doing for Charlie and have always done for myself since my divorce and finding nutrition and kinesiology. We are both grieving the loss of beautiful Bree and together we will rebalance in all areas of our lives particularly in the fun department which has been sorely lacking tbh.


So if you feel your life is out of balance, I've been there and I hear you. If you're not thriving in one or more areas of your life, I'd love to help guide you back to vibrant energy & radiant health. Get in touch via contact page or book a consult via my Kinesiology page.
