✨ALZHEIMER'S SOCIETY - WORKING TOWARDS A WORLD WHERE DEMENTIA NO LONGER DEVASTATES LIVES✨
As you may be aware, over a decade ago I was diagnosed with a spinal disease (Ankylosing Spondylitis), suffering for 7+ damaged discs in my neck, back and spine. My aim for a long time has always been to run/walk the London Marathon to raise money for charity, this looks to be a long way away at this time. However, I have be invited to the 9k Watford Memory Walk 2024 for the Alzheimer’s Society in September, a charity very close to home.
Both my grandparents were diagnosed with Dementia/Alzheimer's some years ago. It is a terrible, debilitating condition that takes everything from a person, not only their memory.
They say that with Alzheimer’s you do not lose the person you love once, but twice.
Alzheimer’s Society work towards a world where dementia no longer devastates lives. They do this by giving help to those living with dementia today, and providing hope for the future by campaigning to make dementia the priority it should be and funding groundbreaking research.
Please donate anything you can to this important and amazing charity. I have included the justgiving link below.
Thank you, Oliver 🙏🏻

✨THE COMPLETE 8-WEEK SUMMER HEALTH & WELLBEING PLAN - WEEK 1✨
The summer months offer an excellent opportunity to focus on your health and wellbeing, even amid the stresses of work and rising living costs. By implementing practical strategies, you can maintain your health, enjoy life, and manage stress effectively. In "The Holistic Guide To Your Health & Wellbeing Today" by Oliver Rolfe, you will find comprehensive insights to guide you towards a balanced and fulfilling life. Here, we present a detailed 8-week plan to help you navigate the summer months with vitality and joy.
1. Prioritise Hydration
Objective: To stay hydrated and maintain energy levels.
Action Steps:
Drink Water Regularly: Aim to drink at least 2 litres of water daily. Staying hydrated helps regulate body temperature, keeps joints lubricated, prevents infections, and keeps organs functioning properly.
Hydration Habits: Drink a glass of water with each meal and carry a water bottle with you.
Carry a Water Bottle: Always have a water bottle with you to ensure you drink enough throughout the day. Opt for a reusable bottle to be environmentally friendly.
Water Reminders: Use a reusable water bottle with markers to track your intake and set reminders to drink water throughout the day.
Timeline: Immediate - Start today and maintain throughout the summer.
2. Eat Seasonal Fruits and Vegetables
Objective: To benefit from the nutrients in fresh, seasonal produce.
Action Steps:
Visit Local Markets: Buy fresh fruits and vegetables from local farmers' markets. This supports local agriculture and ensures you get the freshest produce.
Seasonal Choices: Focus on seasonal produce like berries, tomatoes, and leafy greens.
Incorporate in Meals: Include a variety of colourful fruits and vegetables in your daily diet. Seasonal produce often contains more nutrients and better taste.
Meal Planning: Plan your meals around seasonal fruits and vegetables.
Timeline: Immediate - Begin with your next grocery shopping trip.
3. Practise Mindful Eating
Objective: To enhance digestion and enjoy meals more fully.
Action Steps:
Eat Slowly: Take time to chew your food thoroughly, which aids digestion and allows your body to signal when you are full, preventing overeating.
Mindful Chewing: Put your fork down between bites to slow down your eating pace.
Avoid Distractions: Eat without distractions such as TV or smartphones. This helps you to focus on the food, enjoy its flavours, and recognise your body's hunger and fullness cues.
Eating Environment: Create a calm and pleasant eating environment to enhance the mindful eating experience.
Timeline: Immediate - Implement with your next meal.
4. Engage in Outdoor Activities
Objective: To enjoy the benefits of physical activity and fresh air.
Action Steps:
Exercise Outdoors: Take walks, cycle, or participate in outdoor sports. Physical activity helps improve cardiovascular health, boosts mood, and strengthens muscles.
Routine Activities: Incorporate outdoor activities into your daily routine, like walking the dog or cycling to work.
Plan Activities: Schedule regular outdoor activities with family or friends to stay motivated and make exercise more enjoyable.
Group Activities: Organise group activities such as hiking, football, or yoga in the park.
Timeline: Weekly - Plan activities at the start of each week.
Taking care of your health and wellbeing during the summer months is crucial, especially amidst the stresses of work and rising costs. By following this detailed 8-week plan, you can enjoy a healthier, more balanced life. For more comprehensive guidance, refer to "The Holistic Guide To Your Health & Wellbeing Today" by Oliver Rolfe, available here. Implementing these steps will help you maintain a balanced and healthy lifestyle, enabling you to enjoy the summer months to the fullest.
