Today, my diary is empty.
Not by choice. By necessity.

Friday evening I spent time with people I love β€” laughing, present, genuinely happy. No alcohol, just good company and the kind of conversation that fills you up.

Saturday, a coffee with a couple of them. Simple, easy, nothing taxing.

By Saturday afternoon, I was on the sofa. Pain settled in like it owned the place. Fatigue like a weighted blanket you didn't ask for and can't lift.

Today, I'm still there.

This is M.E. It doesn't care that you were only doing something ordinary. It doesn't care that you weren't even overdoing it β€” just living. The cost of a normal evening with friends can be two days in bed, and there's no negotiating with it.

I've had to cancel a fully booked day today, and I'm sorry to the clients who were affected. You are always my priority β€” and on the days I can show up, I show up completely.

But this is also why the work I do matters so deeply to me.

I know what it is to need rest and not be able to access it. I know what it is to have a body that doesn't behave the way you'd like it to. And I know what it means to finally be in a space where someone holds that with you β€” without rushing, without fixing, without making you feel like a burden.

Rest isn't a luxury. For some of us, it's survival.

If you want to understand more about what life with M.E. really looks like β€” and how I've learned to navigate it β€” I'm soon to be a published author. My book, From M.E. to You β€” an honest guide to living well with M.E. β€” is coming soon. More details shortly. πŸ¦‹

I'll be back when my body allows. πŸ’›

Before anything else happens, I invite you to just sit. Arrive. Stop.

You've been holding everything together for so long that you've forgotten what it feels like to hand any of it over.

So before we begin, I ask you one question.
How are you feeling? Right now. In this moment.

Sometimes there's a sigh.

Sometimes there are tears.

Sometimes you don't even know how to answer.
And that's ok.

Because that moment β€” that pause β€” that's where we begin.

Not with what your body needs.
With who you are beneath everything you're carrying.

This is Tranquility Atelier.

And I made it for you.

Something I want to share with you.

Yesterday I received a diagnosis of osteoarthritis.

Before you worry β€” it's mild at the moment, I'm not in significant pain, and my GP has confirmed I'm absolutely fine to continue my work.
So Tranquility Atelier isn't going anywhere. Not even slightly.

But I wanted to tell you. Because that's who I am, and that's what this practice is built on β€” honesty about bodies, including my own.

Here's the thing about living in a body that has already taught you so much: you get better at listening. Nearly three decades of ME has made me fluent in what my body needs, when it needs rest, and when it's asking me to adapt rather than push. Osteoarthritis is, in many ways, just another conversation in a language I already speak.

So what does this mean practically?

I've made one change for now β€” Swedish massage is no longer something I'll be offering. I'm also deepening my understanding of how to use my body even more effectively and sustainably as I work β€” something I was already committed to, and will now be even more intentional about.

The treatments themselves remain exactly what they have always been β€” gentle, nervous-system-led, deeply restorative. That doesn't change. If anything, my own ongoing experience of managing a chronic condition makes me even better equipped to hold space for yours.

I will always be transparent with you about anything that affects your experience at Tranquility Atelier. You deserve that. And you deserve to arrive at your first session β€” or your fiftieth β€” knowing exactly who you're walking in to see.

A real person. In a real body. Who genuinely understands.

With love as always,
Catherine 🩷

Tranquility Atelier β€” where your nervous system is always safe.

This photo was taken on a night I was running on empty β€” pushing through, burning out, crashing.

Smiling for the camera. Looking fine.

That's M.E.

For years I searched for a guide that was honest about what living with it actually feels like. I came up empty.

So I wrote one.

From M.E. to You β€” coming soon. A real, honest guide to moving from survival mode to truly living.

If you've been waiting for something that finally gets it β€” this is for you. πŸ¦‹
