Hi my name is Cher Fauvèl

and I would like to welcome you to my blog

Thank you for stopping by.

I very much hope you find something of value here.

Ok some about me……….

Well I started out in life alone, abandoned by my young Mother and was in an incurable babies hospital in the UK for the first year of my life!

Doctors said that I would never do anything for myself, and I was kept in a cot for 12 months, it was believed that I would not walk!

In those days there was a lot of  secrecy around adoption, records were lost and cover up documents put in their place!

My cover documents stated that I had a heart defect and a limb problem, it was said I would never do anything for myself and I was about to be packed off to the children’s charity home Dr Banardos! (heck no wonder I strived so hard!)

They were wrong, very wrong!  My adopted family took me home and day’s later I took my first steps on my First birthday!

My new Mum was excited and set about proving the doctors were wrong and so I was a dancer and swimmer from the age of three, I swam in the morning and danced in the evening and My Mum entered me in every competition she could find ~( hey my mum was tough )


Mum’s Mission

Bless my mum, she was so determined to show everyone how wrong the doctor’s were, she dragged me all over the place to compete and prove the point (good teacher my Mum) :)

she had this put in the paper when I was nine……….


“She will never do anything for herself”  the Doctors said!

Baby Cheryl lay in a ward for incurable Children at Bramcote Hospital for twelve months!

But for once the doctors were wrong, She is a now a normal healthy nine year old with a flair for dancing.


Cheryl started dancing at the age of Three and four year’s later did very well in the Wolverhampton, Cheltenham and Leamington festivals. This year she gained two second prizes and merit award at the Leamington  festival.


But dance is not her sole interest she has also gained awards for swimming for ladies Godiva club Coventry!

 


 

SCHOOL ~ YUK

 

I hated school with a vengeance and could only dream of my time to leave, but I had no clue what I was going to do! Mum wanted me to teach dance, I would rather be on stage, I loved performing and with hindsight believe it helped me express myself and release the troubles I felt about feelings of not really belonging!

I felt there was so much more to find, but what?

Back then you would have to buy your way out of final exams, I hated them and had no interest in any subject other than art, drama and sports. I enjoyed history but only because I could use my imagination and I could draw, I could lose myself visualizing characters of the studied time.

So…although  disappointed  Mum told me ” if you can find a job you can leave”. I don’t think she believed I would and the school certainly didn’t they told me I would amount to nothing!  Hey I was outta there!

The very next week I had got a job as an apprentice hairdresser and studied Hair and Beauty (I love anything creative)
By the age of 17 I was titled West Midlands Junior Champion and by19 I was a Salon Manager. By 21 I had my own salons, (Mum was happy now and on her soap box again to prove the teachers wrong, she took pleasure in telling them how well I was doing, bless her!) I was pretty chuffed myself, so I wasn’t this useless thing they told me I was? I was good at something…. now the journey really started! :)

I was at this time still dancing, but my interests grew more and more towards the health & fitness field. I also wanted to look further into my interest in spiritual matter’s. I had something deep within me that I needed to find!

I went on to become a fitness instructor where I taught aerobic dance, resistance training and relaxation classes.

I did meet my birth Mum at the age of 30, that is a whole different looooong story and not one I like, so I will save that for later :)


My interest in the human body and natural health was growing rapidly!


By now I was married with a son. I was besotted with my son (Ok obsessed)

I worried sick about doing everything right for him, while pregnant I read everything I could get my hands on to do with parenting, about child psychology and correct diet, and I was way over protective, I knew now how important the first years of life are, and Knew only too well that my early years had played havoc with me and desperately wanted my boy to know how much he was loved! I was OTT!

I was a nightmare!

(slightly hard to admit that one, never to be repeated LOL)

One night my son appeared to not be well, he could not sleep and had pain in his back, we had the meningitis scare going on at the time! I was told by the doctor it was just a sore throat……………..My precious boy was (very much later) rushed into hospital with what turned out to be pneumonia!

Two weeks later he was diagnosed as a severe asthmatic at the age of 3! I was quite blatantly told that he should take preventative medicine until he was at least 16! I was devastated and determined not to have him on steroids at such a tender age!
With what I had learned so far, this was going against the grain, I could not believe this! I walked to the chemist prescription in hand and tears streaming down my face, this really hurt!……I walked past the chemist and prayed!


SO MY SEARCH BEGAN!

I had to find some natural way to help my son. It didn’t take long…….this was obviously what my preparation was for.

I had a friend who was an acupuncturist, he treated Scott every few days for about 2 months and then followed with ongoing monthly treatments, these treatments turned him around. Scott would have attacks but fewer and less aggressive because we could see them coming on, and we were in control. Scott did have some very risky attacks, but I am convinced he survived them because we worked hard to build him and his immune system instead of pumping him with stuff that kills the immune system!

My friend Colin, spent hours with my son, teaching him how to listen to – and be aware of his body so that he knew when he was going to be in trouble. I studied everything I could to try to help him.

This was what got me hooked into the world of Natural Therapies and Healing.  I studied Aromatherapy, Ayurvedic massage, Reiki Healing, Spiritual Healing, Crystals, and Psychic Counselling.

 

I spent years studying to learn what I could, it was a joy, I couldn’t learn fast enough.

My son today, now 24 years old, still keeps an inhaler around but he is in total control, I dread to think what his health would be like if I had followed the steroid route!

 


 


So you will understand my passion for Natural Health and Healing. In my opinion we need to learn, to educate ourselves and not just accept one way!

I am totally fascinated with the ability of the human body & mind, we are very clever beings! I only wish we would learn more and not take this life and our abilities for granted. This body of ours carries us around everyday and works hard to stay in optimal health, we owe it our bodies and our selves, to learn more about how we work on all levels!

I have been lucky to have all these opportunities to learn and grow – and have met some wonderful teachers along the way!
I love to learn and don’t intend to ever stop! :)

What I hope to achieve with this, my blog is to share with you some amazing tools and knowledge that you can use to transform and empower your life!

I had many challenges in life and learnt to become a survivor, my life has taught me many great lessons (tough ones) I was determined to be who I want to be, and sometimes it has got me in hot water (many times actually LOL)

Life is good and wonderful we have to learn how to allow it to be all that we want ~ it is easy when we know how to just be!

I truly hope you find some inspiration :)


You can become the person you desire to be!


To Your Health And Your Life! With love and Light!
