Looking for local lawyers? Probate, Wills & POA | Free no obligation quoteLife inevitably tends to get away from us, with busy family lives, balancing mental, emotional and physical well-being, care-taking responsibilities, logistics of time and energy and generally trying to squeeze it all in and doing the things that need doing being more of a focus for the average individual. List of things to do can often extend over to page 2 as we try to stay on top of our lives. Which is why our end-of-life plans tend to come at the end of the list… after all, this isn’t something that has to be dealt with now, right? Not necessarily and unfortunately for some, this time of life comes to us sooner than later and we are forced to take a long hard look at how we want to manage our end of life.

Statistics show that roughly 1/3rd of people living in the UK die intestate resulting in extreme emotional and financial hardship being placed on families. Without a will in place, you risk negatively affecting those you love the most at a time when they are already suffering.  Your will is your last opportunity to tell your loved ones what your preferences are and to wde them when you are not physically here to do so. Having a will ensures that your last wishes are enforced and this can have a lasting impact on your family once you are gone. Not preparing a will may result in your estate being distributed to members of your family who may well not be your preferred inheritor.

The process of probate is the legal process which occurs when a person passes and is how your estate is legally assessed. Probate Weybridge attorneys at Lodge Brothers offer probate services which assist individuals with preparing for their end of life. Contacting Probate Ashford attorneys empowers you to finalise all aspects of your life, the way in which you would choose allowing you to have your final choices carried out as you would have done if you were still able. Not planning for your estate via your will, you leave much to chance.

If you have not lived your life leaving all matters to chance, why let it be the case in your demise. No other individual truly knows your wishes and desires so when you pass away without a will, you effectively leave your estate to be governed by the laws of intestacy meaning that everything that you have accrued in your life is now governed by a set of rules enforced by the courts. These rules prioritise married or civil partners and close relatives inheriting your estate under the laws of intestacy which means that the courts may assign your possessions to someone who you had never intended them for.

Probate Feltham is the process which confirms who will handle a person’s estate after their death and it is important to have as it is a legal requirement.

Find your equilibrium

Emotional Detox is now available on Harley Street, London - London TVEmotional Detox Through Bodywork is an alternative healing modality which is transformational by nature and has the powerful capacity to releasing stored emotional trauma down to cellular level. Emotional release at cellular level can bring about a remarkable emotional and physical transformation literally changing lives and transforming a person’s entire physical and emotional body.

Established by Mal Weeraratne, author of “Emotional Detox, Emotional Detox Through Bodywork” the practice of Emotional detox has become well-known as a means of healing, one which is based on awakening to the philosophies of both Tantra and Tao. Also known as Emotional Release, Emotional detox is like performing a physical detoxification of the body. It is geared to help the body to purge emotional toxins from the body to free the mind and body from old and stagnant emotions which may be holding a person back from living a well balanced and purposeful life. Events in our past which have caused us to react in fear, shame, guilt, insecurity, or grief, are not always passed from the body and are stored within the body where they can create disease and emotional stress on the body and mind. These emotions and feelings should ideally be processed and leave the body in the same way as the things that we in-take in the form of food and drink do. When the body is not functioning optimally, it can hold onto and store things which should ideally be released.

Mal Weeraratne’s Emotional Detox Through Bodywork is holistic in approach and works in alignment with the mind-body connection which links the three energy bodies, namely: physical body, energetic or emotional body and the spiritual body.

Emotional release, if practiced with certified practioner, Mal Weeraratne, will facilitate the cessation or curbing of  the retention toxic emotions and improve the body’s ability to flush out all existing or new toxins facilitating a fresh start from where it can better function. This is what the aim of Emotional Detox is. The body is a complex emotional matrix affected by the multitude of micro or macro events and situations which we encounter as we go through life. All the organs, endocrines and body parts form integral parts of the whole that is the body / mind.  Mental and emotional triggers can lead to diseases such as depression, insomnia, cancer or diabetes. When we release these trapped emotions and traumas, as part of an emotional detox, this affords the body the ability to start again from a significantly healthier standpoint.

Benefits of Emotional Detox with Mal Weeraratne include easing symptoms of mental and physical afflictions such as stress, anxiety and depression thereby increasing one’s drive for engaging and reducing any fears or pain. This can increase one’s self-confidence and rebuild a person’s sense of self-worth and belonging. Increased confidence and self-esteem in turn curb poor body image and lessens body shaming of the self. Not to mention physical difficulties such as PMS and period pains, or any other associated dysfunctions.

Lasting Power of Attorney advice

Posted on January 7, 2023 by admin

SOPHIE ANDREWSYour Legal Power of Attorney, referred to as an LPA, is a document which anyone over the age of 18, with full mental capacity, can have drawn up with the goal of appointing an attorney, or a legal firm, to act and speak on your behalf should you become incapacitated to do so yourself. As the initiator of the LPA the label given to you is “the donor” and this is an empowering tool which you can use to acquire the legal help you may need one day, for the purpose of helping you to preservice your rights, your needs and your preferences when it comes to your care.

Lodge Brothers Legal Attorneys is affiliated with Lodge Brothers Funeral Directors and as such there are 40 branches local branches which they have access to across Surrey, Berkshire and Middlesex. A Lasting Power of Attorney Woking can be set up regardless of whether you are currently in the UK and you do not need to be a British Citizen to have one drawn up, although the processes in Scotland and Northern Ireland do differ.

Typically, the Lasting Power of Attorney Ashford covers 2 aspects which are relating to your health and welfare and secondly, relates to your financial affairs, including property however it is up to the individual as to whether they want to apply the LPA to just one, or both aspects of their lives.

When it comes to our personal care and safeguarding, it is not always possible for a person to represent themselves in old age or if they have been subject to an accident, incident or illness which renders them unable to represent themselves, be it mentally or physically (in terms of being able to communicate or articulate our wants and needs). Usually, when it comes to a Lasting Power of Attorney Feltham and personal care, the topics commonly covered include details pertaining to your daily personal care routine, administration of and details pertaining to medicine, wishes about care homes and life-sustaining treatments and options. It is important that even when a person is not able to represent themselves, that their wishes and beliefs are respected.

Financially speaking, when a person appoints an attorney, or attorneys, they will have instructions on how to manage all aspects of the donor’s affairs. This can alleviate the pressure on family members to make these decisions, including the payment of bills and accounts, collection of benefits or pensions and aspects relating to your physical assets and property. In the event that a person does not have a person to hand this duty over to, they will also elicit the expertise of a Lasting Power of attorney solicitor.

Increasing thoughts of self-harm

Posted on January 6, 2023 by admin

Emotional Detox through Bodywork by Mal Weeraratne | lccieb.org.uk

During the last number of years, it has been acknowledged more than ever that there is a connection between mental and physical well-being and that mental well-being is just as important as physical well-being. Mental health issues have been on the increase globally and even more so over the last 3 years resulting from the global world-wide pandemic, Covid-19. A person’s health is one of, if not the, most important possessions a person can have. Mal Weeraratne has been most of his life learning about and understanding the root causes of health and well-being and has dedicated his book ‘Emotional Detox Through Bodywork: A Woman’s Guide to Healing and Awakening’ to answering questions relating to how to heal and recovery from an imbalance within one’s body. As a pioneer in his field, Mal Weeraratne developed a ground-breaking approach to mental and physical well-being through the Body Therapy. Using a technique called Emotional Detox, the patient can experience relief from issues arising from the interaction between the body and the mind.

It is the premise of ancient eastern techniques, that there is a connection between the body and the mind and when there is an imbalance of either body or mind, this can seriously impact the other. In other words, a person born with a disability or a genetic illness, cannot be said to have “caused” this by themselves and that rather this is an outcome of circumstances over which they have had no control. This in turn may cause hardship on the individual’s life which affects their outlook, rendering them mentally imbalanced. A mental imbalance can be experienced as depression, thoughts of self-harm, or result in choices which are not favorable for that person, such as toxic or co-dependent relationships.

Likewise, when a person experiences an imbalance in their mental well-being, which could also result from genetics or chemical predispositions or resulting from them observing their exterior world and identifying problems and issues which cause them undue stress, resulting in disorders such as insomnia, weight loss or weight gain, an imbalance in hormones and so on. Similarly, that imbalance can affect the physical health of an individual and manifest in diseases such as heart problems, lowered immune systems which can result in susceptibility to contracting opportunistic bacteria and viruses, or leaving the body prone to the likes of irritable bowel syndrome, acne and chronic pain and fatigue.

No matter the source of a physical or mental problem, imbalances in one aspect of the person’s body can affect other aspects of the body in a never-ending cycle of ill-health, disease and even be the cause of accidents in their workplace or social life, as well as increasing thoughts of self-harm.

Mal Weeraratne’s simple body-work techniques will alleviate the body of ailments and illnesses which it suffers as the result of mental or physical health. As a wellness practitioner, the techniques used are non-invasive and complimentary to any of the usual allopathic treatments which a person may be using meaning there is no risk to the individual. If you are someone who can relate to the idea of augmenting your usual therapies, Mal Weeraratne may just have the answer you are looking for.

Is cloud computing the way of the future or is there still value in maintaining on-site servers and server rooms which are dedicating to maintain the status quo? Knowall IT offers a perspective on cloud computing from their experience offering private, public and hybrid cloud services.

The fact that some are still asking whether the only way really is cloud and offering hybrid solutions, goes to prove that there is still merit in maintaining the hardware which has been serving businesses faithfully over the past decade. However here are some unmistakable benefits which your business can consider, when deciding whether to migrate to the cloud.

If your business is at the stage where it seems like it might be the right time to move and considerations for migration include a limited budget, questions around infrastructure suitability and a need for solutions to allow for both new and old apps, here are some aspects that Knowall IT Support Near Lambeth would suggest you consider before making your decision:

First and foremost, cloud computing gives your team the ability to access your data from anywhere. While this may be considered more of a nice to have in some businesses, there are those who are very reliant on the ability to access data in an instant, from anywhere. Cloud storage means that your data is stored off-site and accessible any time of the night or day, no matter where in the world you happen to be. Cloud-based computing with Knowall IT support near Richmond supports your employee flexibility and this in turn promotes a health work-life balance. Gone are the days when data stays in the office (meaning you must jump into your car to go and retrieve it from your desk) or on an external drive (commonly susceptible to hardware problems).

Easy to implement, cloud computing will save your business money. Companies like Knowall IT support near Clapham simplify and facilitate a seamless migration so that your business can benefit from scalable options which do not require a massive initial outlay for hardware and infrastructure and avoids large start-up costs. Backups and upgrades are performed automatically without any customer intervention required meaning you benefit from the safety and security offered by cloud computing and do not need to budget for constant hardware or software upgrades and the attached expenses that these add to the bottom line of your business.

Going 100% cloud does mean that your business is susceptible should power outages of service provider interruptions cause internet downtime which can be a frustrating side-effect of cloud-based computing which is why a hybrid cloud option can be of benefit. Mostly however, the benefits of cloud computer out-weighs the potential risks and the cost-saving and flexibility it provides generally means that business is simply better on the cloud. Most importantly the cloud will only get bigger and better as technology advances so the chances of internet disruptions or security issues causing disruptions will become smaller. Looking forward, cloud storage is a highly recommended route, saving on costs and adding value to any business.

Funeral related questions

Posted on January 1, 2023 by admin

Lodge Brothers Funeral Directors - Since 1780While Lodge Brothers Funeral Directors have been operational since 1780, it is fair to say that there have been some changes in the way that funerals are held since the 18th Century and so too has the nature of what is expected when there is a funeral. Lodge Brothers has existed throughout many changes in requirements and are still able to meet the expectations of the loved ones and friends who attend a funeral. Often, the expectations of the family can conflict with those of the departed and so it is especially important for the wishes of the deceased to be honoured on the final day of their being.

Each person is unique in their lives and how they chose to live it and so too in death. Therefore, if there is something that you hold particularly dear or if you have strong feelings as to how you would like to be seen out, you are able to contact your Lodge Brother funeral directly to make the appropriate arrangements for your final event.

Lodge Brothers funeral directors Virginia Water have many facilities to assist you to have the perfect funeral as you would choose it to be. As families we so seldom have these conversations with our loved ones and advise them of how we would like our funeral to look like. A common question is whether to be buried or cremated and often there is an indication of which would be preferable for the departed. However, this is usually where the conversation stops if it evens began at all. Understandably, there is a lot of fear and anxiety associated with funerals which hinders people from raising the topic. This is especially true when it comes to the death of a child or young adult. So often, more than not, those who are left behind in abject grief are required to make decisions that they simply would rather not face at their time of mourning.

No matter what your age why not look at your options for your funeral and decide for yourself how you would like to have your final send off. Lodge Brothers funeral directors Teddington can assist you with funeral pricing and planning, as well as many related aspects of the day, from flower arrangements, floral tributes, and donations in lieu of flowers, to masonry, memorial books, and memory boxes.

All these details can be attended by you in consultation with your Lodge Brother funeral directors Slough.

There are many new and wonderful ideas for how to celebrate the end of life and as celebrating the life of your loved one is widely known to be a vital aspect associated with the bereavement process and formation of closure so commonly well needed at the time of departure, why not take the time to look at your options and decide for yourself.
