Embrace the Hot & Cold

Our modern lives have made us comfortable, maybe a little too comfortable. We’re quick to turn up the heat when it's cold and blast the AC when it's hot, ensuring that our environment is always perfectly regulated. But in doing so, we've lost touch with our body's natural ability to adapt to temperature changes, a skill that our ancestors relied on daily.Take a moment to think about a viral post from Sweden a few years back. A mum shared how she left her baby in a pram outside a café to nap, ...

Coffee - The good & the Bad!

Coffee is one of those drinks that everyone has an opinion about. It’s the go-to beverage for early mornings, social gatherings, and that mid-afternoon pick-me-up. I used to joke that I couldn’t trust people who didn’t drink coffee! I was also the type to proudly say, "I can have five coffees in a day, even just before bedtime, and it doesn’t affect my sleep."But then I hit my mid-30s, and things started to change. With fluctuating hormones, increased stress, and rising anxiety levels, I...

The role of toxins in our homes - and what to do to avoid them

A few years ago, when I first learnt about free radicals and antioxidants, I embarked on a journey of replacing a lot of the everyday items in our home.

But then I discovered Essential Oils (or re-discovered really, as I spent a lot of time using them as a teenager). Just add a few drops of lemon, orange, peppermint or eucalyptus and everything smells fresh! These days a lot of t...

Suffer from inflammation? These are the foods to avoid

I normally try to encourage my clients to add healthy foods to their diet, rather than removing foods. However, when it comes to inflammation, there's really no way around it.

Inflammation occurs when inflammatory cells travel to the place of an injury or foreign body like bacteria. If inflammator...

Having a glass of wine each night?

I thoroughly enjoyed doing a talk/coaching session for the staff at SwipedOn today. It's been a while since I did corporate events, all the mask wearing and restrictions made it a bit difficult. My sessions are very interactive, I do educate, but I also put a lot of emphasis on the individual and goal setting.  The best thing is when we get a great discussion going. One of the best discussions today was about alcohol, and the detrimental effects it can have on sleep. Did you know that ...

The best foods to heal inflammation

When we talk about inflammation, it's a very broad term. If a person is feeling sluggish, tired, IBS-symptoms, headaches, lower immunity etc. it is always a good idea to try out an anti-inflammatory diet, to see if any of the symptoms go away before going for pharmaceuticals.
