In this episode of everymum the podcast, mum of 3 under 3 Lisa Murrin aka @the_health_balance shares how finding her health balance has energised her both physically and mentally. 

Lisa welcomed twin boys into the world in 2017 and knew from day one how important it was to her wellbeing to prioritise her own health balance so that she could give all she had to raising her two little boys.

But, like so many of us, post natal depression caught up with Lisa.

Here we talk about the signs and symptoms, how she found her way out, deciding to have another baby while still battling PND, the impact of hormonal shifts, breastfeeding, routine and how controlling her day as much as she can is a strength she leans upon.

The link between our emotional and our physical health is far stronger than food and exercise alone. 

And following therapy for her anxiety Lisa confronted the real root of her fears, the tragic loss of her baby brother to cot death while she was just 2 years old. Every moment in our lives forms who we are today and here Lisa so kindly shares this experience with us so that we can all begin to talk openly about the root of our own emotional health challenges.

The last few months have taken their toll on all of us, but learning to surrender to the unknown has given Lisa a new freedom to enjoy her boys. As the co-founder of Eathos and Director of Operations at With Taste, her life has more pressures than ever and anxiety will always be a part of who she is, but through balance it can be used to propel her drive and success instead of holding her back.
