After having a #Stroke, @Craig_Pankhurst resolved to bring more positivity into the survivor community.

Through the foundation of his charity - @AStrokeOfLuckUK - he is using exercise to do just that.

After a long, dreary winter, it's about time we blow away the cobwebs - so let's do it together! 🕺

Starting from today, we'll be sharing one of our twelve stroke-specific exercise videos every week. These exercise videos were created because we at A Stroke of Luck believe that physical exercise is a key element of a stroke survivor's journey to recovery, and we want to help all stroke survivors to start moving and feel good, no matter where they are on their journey.

Each exercise is available in three levels of difficulty: red (limited mobility), amber (some mobility) and green (independently mobile). To figure out which category suits you best, you can watch our introduction video by heading to our website - link in bio!

First up, we'll be focusing on Stretches! Once you know which colour suits you, simply click on the corresponding link over on our website and you can get properly started. Good luck, and let us know how you get on! 💪

Spring is officially around the corner, which means it's finally time to start thinking about enjoying a lovely ice cream in the sun again! 🍦

Why not share your 99 ice cream with us by donating 99p a month to our charity? Even if you can't taste the ice cream, you'll still get that lovely feeling of contentment knowing you're helping us achieve our dream of creating more exercise videos and providing guidance and support for stroke survivors across the UK and the world. 🌎

To donate, simply head to the link in our bio and click the big 'DONATE' button on our website. There, you'll be able to set up a monthly donation of 99p via PayPal. A massive thank you to everyone who's shared their 99 ice creams with us so far - we're so, so grateful for your sweet support! 😋

"I completed a jigsaw!" 👏

We love hearing about the things that make you feel a sense of accomplishment or bring a smile to your face. That's why we've created our Positivity Checkpoint, which acts as a weekly reminder for you to stop scrolling and think about just ONE thing that made you feel good over the past seven days. 💭

Whether you returned to work, made yourself a great breakfast or simply felt the sun on your face, we want to hear about it! 🗣

(Thank you for sharing this little moment of celebration with us, @loolinsey! 👏)

What's something that's made you feel a sense of accomplishment lately? 🧡

Your mental health is just as important as your physical health. Why not use our mental health checklist and see how you've scored today?

Ask yourself:

☀ Have I had fresh air today?
🚶‍♂️ Have I moved my body today?
❤ Have I been thinking kind thoughts to myself?
💤 Am I getting enough sleep?
🤳 Am I comparing myself?
🍝 Have I eaten regular meals?

If you feel like you could do with an extra dose of mindfulness today, join us tonight at 18:30 GMT on our Instagram for a live relaxation session with @bexneurophysio, our superstar neuro physiotherapist. The perfect end to the week, if you ask us! 💚

Did you know A Stroke of Luck's 12-week series of stroke-specific exercise videos is available to watch online?

This exercise series was created in collaboration with the @thestrokeassociation, who share our core belief that physical exercise is a vital part of a stroke survivor's recovery journey. Because we want to help all stroke survivors to start moving and feel good, our twelve-week series is available in different ability levels to suit all needs: red (❤), amber (🧡) and green (💚).

If you missed the videos the first time around or want to challenge yourself again, all twelve weeks are now available to watch on our website - link in bio!

Let us know how you get on!

We're very pleased to announce that @bexneurophysio will be joining us for monthly relaxation sessions as part of our Friday Live Sessions! 🧘‍♀️

As one of our resident neurophysio experts, Becky is already a familiar face here at A Stroke of Luck and has previously appeared on a Friday Live Session or two, along with being an integral part of last year's series of stroke-specific exercise videos. 💪

Now, she's going to be joining us on the last Friday of every month to lead a relaxation session featuring a guided meditation to help inject some much-needed mindfulness into our daily lives. If you missed Becky's last session with us, scroll back to January 29 on our feed to give it a listen - it was so relaxing she even sent Instagram to sleep and we had to reconnect! 😴😂

Our session will begin at 6:30pm GMT this Friday over on Instagram Stories. See you all there! 👋
