In this episode of Humans of Chelmsford we are joined by Vicki Hornsby, someone who has used her past battles with mental health as a force for good.
Opening up about your battles with depression and anxiety is a massively daunting prospect but Vicki knows exactly what that feels like.
From an early age she had always felt anxious although she never realised it was actually anxiety at the time.
However, as soon as she gave birth to her first daughter post-natal depression hit and her mind spiralled out of control on a totally new level.
Digging yourself out of what she calls the black hole is no easy task but Vicki managed to find a way through mindfulness and stumbling across a book in the library.
After improving her mental state she was eventually persuaded to start coaching people as well and she hasn’t looked back since.
Through a combination of writing, blogging and tuition Vicki is now helping people from all over to recover and manage their mental health.
Within the space of a few years she has turned everything around and she is also now the proud owner of her own website and brand – Bliss Mindfulness.
