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!

Turn down the white noise and find your own song!

🌟 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

🚰 How a plumbing disaster brought us back toget 🚰 How a plumbing disaster brought us back together as a family - a different dynamic for sure, but we can still count on one another 💗 A couple of extracts: '...The scene was a disaster! Apocalyptic! Water poured and sprayed from pipes at either end of a heavy radiator. It was detached from the wall, resting at an uncomfortable angle on the two boxes, still unpacked, that the kids’ dad had brought over on his fleeting first visit. ... With a deftness of hand, and a clarity of mind (not really!) I… plugged the pipes with a finger from each hand. Everything went calm. Still. But the pressure was threatening to mount again. I could feel it in my fingers! ... 'Shall I call Daddy?' ... 📖 To read more - visit my new post on Medium (link in Bio) I hope you enjoy 🤗 #relationships #mediumwriter #writingcommunity #love #separatebuttogether #separatelives #workingitout #makingitupasyougoalong #onedayatatime #creativewriting #thishappenedtome
