Spa Retreat for Cancer Survivors
I am so excited about the first retreat to inspire, relax and pamper you after cancer treatment, being organised by Confidence After Cancer.
We want to offer a warm welcome to all ladies who are post cancer and finding it a challenge to step back into life after treatment. We are going to share time time with women who understand, we have all been there, and we know the challenges you are facing.
We arrive at lunchtime on Tuesday June 12th 2012
My introduction will be about introducing our fabulous workshops leaders, and invite the attendees to take some time out, just to focus on themselves, which for many busy women is a rare treat.
We will have Liz Crisp talking about her life after cancer – what she has learnt – what she has changed and her hopes for the future. I recently met Liz at a training event at Macmillan in London, and we had so much in common: trying to make sense of our new lives after cancer treatment.
I am thrilled that Kelly Short who appeared on ‘How To Look Good Naked’ with Gok Wan, after breast cancer made her cancel her wedding, will be telling us how she turned her life around, even when she was diagnosed for the second time.
Daniella Slabbert, the Cancer Coach, will show us how to turn post cancer stress into your own personal bliss
Liz Green, Law of Attraction Queen, will guide us on how to get more of what you want, and less of what you don’t want – into your life
Sharon Fox, founder of The Sharon Fox Centre will tell us how she was inspired to help others
There will be lots of pamper time, relaxation, spa treatments and good food, and great company.
Our last day will be helping everyone come up with some simple steps to make every day blissful, we will include some demonstrations of Reiki and crystal healing, make up demos and group meditation and close at 4.30pm
Champneys Springs is a fabulous venue, according to their website ‘Springs offers modern luxury with an exceptionally friendly service. Everything has been designed with relaxation in mind, from the beautiful water walkway to the spacious lounge areas. Surrounded by wide-open park lands, Springs combines light, airy spaces with a warm and friendly atmosphere.’
I cannot wait! 
All attendees will leave with a goody bag, a spring in their step and a plan of how to bring more bliss into every day. Ongoing telephone coaching support will be available for all attendees.
Places can be booked today at Eventbrite

Natural Face Lift Massage
I recently had the most blissful of experiences, a face lift massage from the lovely Sharon Zemmel.
I had read all the blurb about how good it was, and was quite sceptical at how a massage, without using any products, could have any effect. Since my diagnosis with Inflammatory Breast Cancer, I have tried to reduce the number of chemicals in my life, in my food, my personal products and the cleaning products I use in my home. I am convinced that the rise in cancer sufferers is due to the unnatural way most of us live.
In spite of this, I still like my face and body products, and make up. My products are now all natural, but I still thought I needed them to make my skin look better.
After the most blissful hour on Sharon’s treatment couch, I could not believe how great I felt, and how radiant my skin was. Not only did it feel so soft, but the lines on my face looked so much more fine, like I have used some miracle products. (or been airbrushed!)
Full details of Sharon and her techniques are on her website, but I would just like to thank her for completely relaxing me. I felt so calm and refreshed, like I had enjoyed a good 8 hours sleep. The light and soothing massage felt so comforting, Sharon really is brilliant, and I was also marvelling at how bright my eyes looked!
All in all, highly recomended, I suggest this treatment as a great pampering session for yourself, or a wonderful gift for a friend.
thank you Sharon, I’ll be back!

Komen Only Responds When the World Notices . . .
Like many nights, I could not sleep last night.
So after tossing and turning, I decided to open up my trusty laptop and catch up on some things. I opened my email account: nomorecancer4me@gmail.com
(I know, it has a nice ring to it, doesn’t it)? If we could all just wish ourselves to being well forever, now that would be something.
Can a vision save your life?
The policeman shot by fugitive Raoul Moat has told how a vision of his children saved his life. Pc David Rathband said he knew he was at risk of bleeding to death when he was blasted in the face as he sat unarmed in his patrol car last month. Slumped in the footwell of the Northumbria Police Volvo T5, the father of two said he felt his life slipping away as blood poured from his wounds.
Victoria Beckham endorsing Aloe Vera products!
Good old posh has been speaking about her latest weight loss and detox, the amazing Clean 9 from Forever Living Products. I really don’t think she needs the weight loss though…..
She has suffered for years with spotty skin and is raving about the effects she has seen within a short space of time. I also have been drinking Aloe Vera gel as it is a natural product, with so many health benefits.The aloe leaf contains over 200 different compounds and helps to maintain a healthy digestive system and a healthy energy level. I use it as a daily nutritional drink for good health, well being and to support my immune system.
The Forever Nutri-Lean Programme is a two step process, combining a 9-day nutritional cleansing plan followed by a long-term weight loss plan. This is designed to take the guesswork out of a lifetime of healthy eating and diet control.

What You Can Thrive! Means to Me
by Christine Taylor “Compassion is a feeling deep in the heart that you cannot bear someone else’s suffering without taking steps to relieve it.“ Dalai Lama What does it mean to me to come to You Can Thrive?

"Give us your Pitch" - A student led showcase event & a free Reiki healing project to build confidence after cancer
For this week’s ‘Give us your Pitch’, we felt that there were two crowdfunding projects worthy of inclusion. The first is an annual student-led arts project that needs a little helping hand and the second is a Reiki themed healing project for Women dealing with the after effects of Cancer. I hope you agree that they are both worthy projects for TheEmployable to support and we wish them all the best with their crowdfunding projects that are currently live…
