About us!

Living Well was founded by Julie Winstanley - psychologist, writer, and creator - with a simple belief:

'Life feels better when we're supported by the right things. not more things.'

After years of working at the intersection of wellbeing, creativity and everyday life, Julie created Living Well as a calmer alternative to the noise, pressure, and over consumption that dominates modern wellness cultures.

This is not about perfection, it's about practicality, care, community and things that genuinely help live well.

Our Founder

Julie Winstanley is a psychologist and wellbeing creator with a long standing interest in how people regulate, recover and reconnect through creativity and everyday rituals.

Her work and brand (Calm Creatives) focuses on:

*Emotional regulation and holistic nervous system care

*Creativity as a therapeutic tool.

*Making living well accessible not aspirational.

Living Well grew out of Julie's own lived experience - supporting others while navigating the realities of midlife, work, caregiving and change.

It reflects an ethos that wellbeing is not something you add on its something you build into life.

Why Living Well exists

Living Well was created in response to a common issue Julie saw again and again, overwhelm with life, not because of lack of motivation, but due to too much pressure to 'fix' things, too much advice and too many products.

A curated collective

Here at Living well you will find a select, curated range of products, created by a small group of invited curators who share Julie's vision and values.

-Calm over chaos

-Care over consumption and

-Real life over idealised wellness.

These values shape everything - from the products offered to the way creators are invited and supported.
