Caroline's Philosophy 

To achieve any kind of results takes time and consistency; whether it’s changing our habits or changing our lives.

Experiment & Explore

We are all unique and it’s important to understand our bodies; there’s no simple 'one solution' when it comes to food and exercise choices, particularly when you’ve had stoma surgery. What suits one person, won’t suit another. It’s this philosophy that drives Caroline to encourage people to experiment and explore when it comes to food and fitness. 

Enjoy Your Food

There’s no reason why someone who has had stoma surgery has to live on a diet of bland or pureed food; no reason why they shouldn’t enjoy vibrant, healthy food that is good fuel for their body.

Exercise as a Pillar of Health

The same applies to fitness. Taking it gently, understanding what your body can or cannot do, but not simply saying ‘I can’t do that’ before you’ve tried. If you enjoyed sport before surgery, you should, with guidance, be able to enjoy some form of sport or fitness after.

Holistic Well-being

Mind-Body Connection: Discussing the psychological benefits of a balanced diet and regular exercise, especially for those adjusting to life with a stoma.

 

Community and Support: Encouraging engagement with others who share similar experiences, highlighting the importance of community in the journey towards wellness.
