The University of the Third Age
The University of the Third Age (U3A) is an international movement who believe that continuing to learn and develop your interests, make friends, and try something new is a life long passion and as a result is great for your mental health. U3A started as a movement in France in 1973. In the1980s, the movement reached the United Kingdom where it became a much more flexible organisation centred…

Can Mindfulness help us?
Ok so please don’t be put off by the title. I know this is a word banded about a lot these days but let’s look at what it actually means.  Basically, it involves becoming more aware of the present moment which can help us to enjoy the world around us more. Mindfulness is claimed to have a range of benefits such as a decrease in stress, treat heart disease, lower blood pressure, reduce…

Get fit to feel good
It is back in March 2019 that I last wrote about the benefits of exercise so I thought it was time to mention it again.  It seems even more important in these current and strange times the world finds itself in. The benefits of exercise include an increase in energy, helps relieve depression, helps with relaxation and sleep, good for both muscles and bones, increases interaction with other…

For the love of pets
There is no doubt that owning a pet can help us in many different ways. One thing for sure is they are always there for us no matter what.  I own a West Highland White terrier and no matter what the weather is like, Millie needs to be taken out and exercised.  Having MS, this makes sure I get a certain amount of exercise each day, no matter what else I am doing. She is also very good at…

Combating Fatigue
One of the most annoying symptoms, for me, in having MS is chronic fatigue.  It makes no sense to me, one day fine and the next not so good and finding the need to cancel that day’s activities.  Having been a keen runner I was very disappointed to find I was no longer able to run.  But I have now found other activities to fill the running void, such as dog walking, gardening, yoga, a…

For this weeks Fact Friday I wanted to find the latest, up-to-date research for you. I was amazed, to find articles about the benefit of using worms as a treatment for MS. I am not sure I would try this but hey never say never! Have a read for yourselves by clicking the websites below: https://www.mstrust.org.uk/a-z/parasitic-worms…

Beautiful Island!
My Fact Friday this week is a simple one which goes along the lines of ‘Wow, aren’t we lucky to live on such a stunning island.’  Wherever you live on the island, there are some wonderful views of the sea, and beautiful lanes to meander through. We live in St. Martins, near the coastal path, and I took some pictures on Monday whilst walking our dog which I hope you enjoy.  Not only are…

Let’s eat more fruit
Want a reason to eat more fruit?  Then here's a good one; scientists have discovered a link between ursolic acid, which is a compound found in the peel of fruit, and the promotion of myelin repair. The acid appears to stimulate stem cells to produce Oligodendrocytes, which are a type of cell found in the central nervous system, and which make myelin sheath. Whist this is not a cure, scientists…
