It’s World Diabetes Month and World Diabetes Day on the 14th November!

And so, we want to talk about one of the most misunderstood conditions that can be associated with diabetes – tingling feet 🦶.

Diabetes can cause tingling feet to occur – but it’s not the only reason this can happen!

It is actually a fairly common symptom people experience. It can also be felt as a ‘pins and needles’ or numbness sensation.

Some of the time, this isn’t a cause to be concerned. It can be the result of sitting on our feet for example, but much of the time there is a reason that it happens! 💁‍♀️

If the tingling is persistent and continues and comes with or without pain, it’s time to seek expert help.

It’s Men’s Health Awareness month 👱🏻‍♂️, and because of this, we want to help the men in your life to live all that much better and in a healthier way 🙆‍♂️!

There are several health conditions that can affect men more than women.

This includes physical and mental concerns – men can often be reticent to seek out help when they need it 🤫!

But it’s okay to admit when you need help, and it’s important to approach your health with care.

Today, we’re going to talk through some common spinal conditions that affect men more often than women.

We hope to give you the information you need to care for yourself and the men in your family 👨‍👩‍👧‍👧.

Every mum has said it – it’s important to eat your greens! 🌿

And what better time to give it a try than right now? November 1st was World Vegan day 🥗, and Cancer Research UK has started the Veg Pledge Challenge 🥦!

The challenge is to go meat-free for one month and help fundraise for life-saving cancer research. On their website you’ll find recipes, information, answers to common questions and more. You can pledge either to try out veganism or vegetarianism for this great cause.

So, what’s the big deal about eating your greens 🤔?

We all have our normal daily routines and patterns and, most of the time, this can be comforting and calming. But sometimes this can also get boring, or stale 😴. If things are too monotonous, we don’t feel the same connection, excitement and variety in our lives that we need 🙌. Sometimes we just need to do something naughty or different!!!

October 20th, was World Osteoporosis Day.

But what is Osteoporosis?

This week, we want to teach you a little more about this increasingly common condition and explain how we can help 💁‍♀️ supporting you from diagnosis through to treatment plan.

Last week was World Arthritis Week 💁‍♀️.

Arthritis affects more than 10 million people in the UK in some form.

Even though arthritis is very common, not many people really understand what it is 🤔. It’s actually not just one problem – it refers to several types of joint pain and joint disease.

In this article, we explain a little more about Arthritis, so you know what to look out for and what you can do about it!

This year has been a challenging one – you don’t need us to tell you that much!

We know that lockdown and a lot of big changes in everyday life has caused a lot of disruption for you and the family. It’s natural to feel a bit more stressed, and maybe a bit more anxious or depressed. This year has taken its toll on all of us.

That’s why this week we are excited to tell you about Lorna, our new stress and anxiety specialist! 🙌 Lorna is here with us to help support you and your loved ones through this time, and she’ll be offering free 15-minute consultations and stress questionnaires.

That’s right, this week it is ask a silly question week! 🤪

Why write about this? 🤔

Well, we love receiving your questions at Inspired Health. 🙃

Sometimes, happiness can feel completely elusive and other times it is there all the time. Why is this?! Happiness feels like this mythical state of being. So, is there anything we can do to be happier? 🙃

Imagine life without being able to balance correctly…

We would fall over every time we moved! 🤕

Balance is therefore super important to our everyday life. So, how do we balance? ⚖️
