The Luminous Method

19/10/2026

I’m trying something new.

A 10 minute walk after lunch!

I’m looking for little ways to manage my blood sugar levels that actually fit into mum life.

When your blood sugar rises, your body releases insulin. And consistently high insulin levels or insulin resistance can contribute to inflammation in the skin and make skin conditions linked to inflammation worse.

Now, I know I’m not going to stick to an hour’s walk every day.

But 10 minutes after lunch, Monday to Thursday, while the kids are at school and nursery? That feels doable.

Even in the rain, I reckon I could manage 10 minutes!

So that’s what I’m trying. Little changes that I can actually stick to.

Anyone else trying to make small changes that fit into everyday life?

The clocks go back next Sunday morning…

You know and I know you’re not getting an extra hour in bed, the kids don’t give a 💩 about daylight savings 🤣

Imagine 👉instead of an extra hour of ‘Mum’ calls….

You get to completely shut off, no one needing anything from you.

Our theme is the lymphatic system, bringing together a nourishing skincare routine and facial massage with Mhairi, gentle Pilates and stretching with Gemma, then time to get properly comfy…

Blankets, guided meditation, hands on massage and a 45 minute sound bath with Tammy from Sound Mind & Soul 🥰

You asked for more massage and more time to relax after our last morning. We’ve listened!

Come on your own or bring a friend. No need to be fit or flexible, just wear something comfy and let us look after you.

🗓 Sunday 25 October

If the tattie holidays have left you a bit frazzled, how about two hours where nobody needs anything from you?

We’re down to our last few spaces.

“A couple of hours child free!”

Sometimes that’s all you want, isn’t it?!
Lynsey came along to our first Glow & Flow feeling run down and in need of a break from looking after everyone else.

And left feeling SO relaxed, with skin that felt great! 🥰

I love that she said it was a great balance of everything, because that’s exactly what Gemma at GC Physiotherapy & Pilates. and I wanted to create.

Not just a skincare morning. Not just Pilates.
A bit of everything to help you feel better in your skin, body AND mind. 💜

And for our Autumn Edition, we’ve added a sound bath with Tammy from Sound Mind & Soul for another layer of relaxation.

🍂 Sunday 25th October
⏰ 11am to 1pm

Two hours where nobody needs anything from you. Imagine that!

I went in for colouring books….👇

£47 in Home Bargains on colouring books, stickers, bath bombs and a light up witch’s hat 🤣

All the little “it’s only a couple of quid” things… apparently there were quite a lot of them 😂

Yet spending £50 on two hours for myself? Suddenly I need to justify it.

So here’s my mum maths. Dodge one Home Bargains trip, add £3 and come to Glow & Flow 🤣

Something to look forward to after the tattie holidays. Two hours of skincare, gentle movement and a relaxing sound bath, where we look after YOU for a change 💜
