About Me

Eilidh Horder and Suki the cat on shoulder B&W

Hi! I'm Eilidh, a recovering perfectionist and people pleaser currently based in the Belgian Ardennes with my musical partner, two children with super powers, six stray cats (at the last count) and Fido the Romanian rescue dog. He happens to have PTSD so he fits in well here.

The aim of this emotional and mental health blog is to share my experiences and reach out to others who might relate - a little reminder that we are not alone 🥰

Let’s talk about finding deeper meaning, peace, acceptance and self-knowledge. Love is all!

🌟 Twinkle may have been ‘just a cat’. But s 🌟 Twinkle may have been ‘just a cat’. But she was also the best kind of friend - and particularly, to my daughter, Lily - who took this photo 🌟 💙 Here is her story. I wrote it and posted it in 'PS I Love You' on Medium, and Lily loves me to read it to her before she goes to sleep - as well as the kind comments people leave. It comforts her. So if you do leave a comment, thank you. I will pass it on to Lily 💙 😿 Twinkle's little light is sorely missed 😿 ... #bloggersofinstagram #blogger #mentalhealthblog #emotionalhealthblog #writer #writersofinstagram #wellbeing #wellbeingwriter #wellness #healthandwellbeing #twinkletwinkle #goodbye #losingapet #losingafriend #photobymydaughter #storyofacat #catstory
