About me

Welcome,

I'm Lozzy and this is my creative space. 

I am a trainee science teacher that enjoys reading, crafting, travelling and discussing mental health.

I started this blog a few years ago and I love being able to put my thoughts onto 'paper' and share the lessons I learn, things I love and places I go. I discuss anything from mental health to my favourite books, holiday destinations to poems I have written. 

I also set up an Instagram page where I share my journey with my mental health as well as a few arty bits too. I share my mental health tips and tricks on my stories and enjoy sharing all of your brilliant ideas too. Please come and join us there!

In the meantime, make yourself at home, grab yourself a cuppa and enjoy.

Moments of calm amongst this storm. The snow bought a welcome relief. Some variety to living so cooped up. It felt lovely to feel such coolness in the air and to see the world looking so bright. I built a snowman and felt my worries slipping away. I enjoyed hot chocolates and cosy blankets. February started off much like January but harder.

Valentines day, walks, yummy food and still more memories from this month to make. I wanted to share a few things that are lighting up my life so far in 2021. We all need to find the light in the storm. I downloaded an app called one second everyday and I really recommend y
