What if your body is trying to tell you something?

Have you ever had a niggling symptom that keeps coming back?

Perhaps you feel exhausted, wired but tired, uncomfortable in your digestion, struggling to sleep, feeling overwhelmed, or simply not quite yourself — but you can’t put your finger on why.

Sometimes we spend so much time asking:
“How do I get rid of this symptom?”
that we forget to ask:
“Why is my body responding this way?”

This is one of the things I love about Systematic Kinesiology.

Rather than looking at one symptom in isolation, kinesiology takes a holistic look at you — considering the physical, nutritional, emotional and energetic aspects of your wellbeing.

Muscle testing can give us another way of listening to the body and exploring where it may need support.And sometimes, the things your body is asking for aren’t quite what you expected.

At English Ivy Wellness, I combine kinesiology with approaches such as Bach Flower Therapy, Reiki and EFT tapping, depending on what feels appropriate for you.

There isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach.
Your body, your story and your wellbeing are unique to you.

🌿 If you’ve been feeling that something isn’t quite right but don’t know where to start, perhaps it’s time to look at your health from a different perspective.

Five Signs Your Body Might Be Asking for Support

Your body whispers before it shouts.

Sometimes we ignore those whispers because we’ve become so used to feeling tired or overwhelmed.

Here are five signs your body may be asking for support...
🌿 You’re constantly exhausted, even after sleeping.
🌿 Your digestion never quite feels right.
🌿 You’re living with aches, pains or recurring symptoms.
🌿 You feel stressed, anxious or emotionally overwhelmed.
🌿 You know you’re “not yourself” but can’t explain why.

We often learn to live with these things because they’ve become our normal.

But they aren’t always something you simply have to accept.

Our bodies have an incredible ability to heal when they’re given the right support.

That’s exactly why I love the work I do.

🌺 And something very special is coming to English Ivy Wellness.

I’ve been working behind the scenes on something I’ve wanted to create for a long time - a new way to explore the Bach Flowers as a personal journey.

I’ll be sharing more very soon.

So what actually is Kinesiology?

It’s probably the question I’m asked more than any other.

Systematic Kinesiology is a gentle, holistic therapy that uses muscle testing to communicate with the body.

Every day your body is working incredibly hard to keep you healthy. Sometimes it simply needs a little help identifying where the stress is coming from.

That stress may be physical...
It may be nutritional...
It may be emotional...
Or even a block in energy…
Or it may be a combination of all four.

Using muscle testing, we can begin to uncover the priorities for your body and support it using nutrition, acupressure points, meridians, Bach Flowers, emotional techniques and lifestyle advice.

Rather than asking, “What’s wrong?”

I ask,

“Why is your body struggling to heal?”

Every person is unique, so every treatment is unique too.

If you’ve ever wondered what happens during a kinesiology session, come and have a chat with me at the Wellness & Worth event. Or contact me to book a taster session at my clinic.

I’d love to answer your questions.

✨ I’m absolutely delighted to be part of the Wellness & Worth event on Sunday 27th September at the Aztec Hotel & Spa.

If you’re looking for an inspiring afternoon of wellbeing, connection and self-care, I’d love to see you there. To book your ticket, simply tap the Wellness & Worth link in my bio.

Over the next few weeks, I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to reintroduce myself.

Hi, I’m Sharon — mum of three, grandmother of two, and the founder of English Ivy Wellness, my holistic therapy practice serving Bristol and Bath.

My journey into this work began as a mother, not a practitioner.
When my youngest daughter was diagnosed with ME/CFS at just ten years old, I immersed myself in finding gentler, more natural ways to support her. Through years of learning, trial and error, and celebrating small breakthroughs, I discovered my own calling.

Twenty years later, as a Systematic Kinesiologist, Bach Flower Therapist and Reiki Practitioner, I now have the privilege of helping other women uncover the root causes of what’s really going on in their bodies.

Whether you’re living with chronic illness, post-viral fatigue, hormonal imbalances, digestive issues, stress, or simply feeling disconnected from yourself, my approach is always to treat the whole person, not just the symptoms.

If you’re coming to Wellness & Worth, I’d love for you to stop by my stand. Come and say hello, discover how kinesiology works and experience a little of it for yourself.

I can’t wait to meet you.

💚 I’d love to know...what first sparked your own interest in health and wellbeing?

Good morning everyone

Did you know that adding a tiny pinch of Celtic salt to your drinking water can help with hydration in extreme heat.

In really hot conditions like we are experiencing right now we lose significant amounts of water and essential electrolytes (like sodium and magnesium) through sweat. Adding salt replenishes these minerals, which helps our bodies effectively retain and absorb water.

But Why Celtic Salt?

Unrefined salts like Celtic sea salt are different from standard table salt because they contain trace amounts of essential electrolytes.

* Sodium & Chloride: Help pull water into our cells to prevent dehydration.

* Magnesium: Known as a “water-hungry” molecule, will also facilitate cellular water absorption

To make an electrolyte drink at home, I’ve been adding a small pinch (equivalent to 1.5 grams) of Celtic salt to 2 litres of water. Then added a squeeze of lime or lemon juice ( or both) to add flavour and potassium and a few fresh mint leaves and slices of cucumber. (optional)

Drink the water consistently throughout the day rather than drinking large amounts all at once.

Stay heat safe everyone. ☀️

Love Sharon x

PLEASE NOTE:
While it is an excellent way to maintain electrolyte balance, please check with a doctor if you have high blood pressure or are on a sodium-restricted diet before introducing Celtic Salt.

🌞 Happy Summer Solstice! 🌿

Today marks the longest day of the year.

It is a beautiful moment to pause.

The sun is at its highest point.

Nature is alive, vibrant, and fully expanded.

This day brings a powerful shift in energy.

It invites us to celebrate our own growth.

It encourages us to welcome warmth and light.

Yet, peak summer energy can sometimes feel overwhelming.

You might feel scattered, ungrounded, or tired.

That is completely natural.

When the time feels right for you, Kinesiology is a gentle way to find your center again.

It uses muscle monitoring to listen to your body.

It pinpoints where stress or fatigue is held.

It gently restores your natural internal balance.

There is no rush to fix anything today.

Simply soak up the sunshine.

Breathe in the warm summer air.

Trust your own timing.

I am here whenever you need a space to reset. 💚

Love Sharon x

Today my youngest daughter turns 30. 🎉💜

As I celebrate this milestone, my heart is full of gratitude.

Thirty years ago, I became her mum. Little did I know that one of my greatest teachers in life would be this little girl. Through her health challenges, she has shown me what courage, resilience and determination truly look like.

The journey hasn’t always been easy. There have been tears, frustrations, setbacks and countless questions. But there have also been moments of hope, discovery, laughter and growth. Every challenge has taught us something valuable.

She is the reason I do what I do.

My passion for learning, researching and understanding complex chronic illnesses, including EDS, was born from wanting to help her live the fullest life possible. That passion continues today as I search for new knowledge, new insights and new ways to support not only her, but every person who walks through my clinic doors.

One thing this journey has taught me is that healing isn’t about fighting against your body. It’s about learning to listen to it, understand it and work with it. It’s about embracing your challenges without allowing them to define you. It’s about discovering your strengths, celebrating your uniqueness and finding ways to shine despite the obstacles.

To everyone living with EDS, chronic illness, chronic fatigue, pain or health challenges of any kind: never underestimate your resilience. Your diagnosis is only one part of your story. You are so much more than your symptoms.

Today, I celebrate my daughter and all that she is. And I celebrate every one of you who continues to show up, keep learning, keep adapting and keep believing that life can still be beautiful.

Happy 30th Birthday, my darling. Love you 🥰

Thank you for inspiring my purpose every single day. ❤️
