If you haven’t heard about the health benefits of bone broth and Kombucha you may have been living under a rock? No, just kidding, its’ has been promoted for some time by the health conscious, Naturopaths, Nutritionists, Integrative GP’s. In fact if you have these on your menu for brunch, you’ll be oh so cool…
Have we become lazy?
I was watching episodes of Little House on the Prairie the other day- a classic series shown here on tv when I was little and it occurred to me…. have we become lazy? I really noticed how much incidental movement they had in their daily lives – most of which doesn’t exist today. I really…
The Tastiest Beetroot Soup
This beetroot soup is one of the tastier ones I’ve had, keep in mind I’ve used freshly picked pesticide free beetroots which uplevel the flavour tremendously along with a good quality organic stock and organic herbs and garlic. Be sure to salt to taste, I’ve ruined a batch before by adding 1 teaspoon of salt…
The Power Of Essential Oils
The power of Essential Oils was a surprise to me, I often wonder if I hadn’t been ill and desperate to heal if I’d still not know about them. Would I have taken any interest? Well, I guess we’ll never know, but as I now have had lots of experiences with them, I’m sharing with you…
Digestion & Acid Reflux
Digestion was a major problem for me. It started with in-frequent indigestion which I’m sure we’ve all felt at some point, that really full feeling and bloating of the tummy and ended up with not being able to have a coffee without feeling like I was going to be sick or being sick. I suffered…
Ginger & Lime Maqui Bliss Balls
à la snacking in style – these are a flavour BOmB! Totally devine and whilst I can’t take credit for the recipe I can take credit for the flavour explosion of Ginger & Lime because I’ve tweaked this to a whole new level of deliciousness. I like to make these as my not so naughty…
Mémoir 1~ My Nightmare Begins
I’m 39, the fittest, healthiest & thinnest I’ve ever been & I’m loving life. Consideration- before I get into my story, I would like to recognise that I do realise I’m not the only one with health challenges, lots will be worse than mine, and will have a different ending. I have chosen to write…
Mémoir 2~ I Can’t Get Through My Workouts
Recap: I have no idea what is about to unfold It’s now January 2013, 2 months before my 40th Birthday & how I describe the “BANG” happens. I’m no longer able to get through my workouts. I’m only going at half pace and I’m exhausted. This happens so quickly, like the flick of switch. What’s…
Mémoir 3~ The Next 18 Months
Recap: I now have indigestion & feel sick all the time. This gets so severe I can’t consume anything without nearly vomiting, including coffee. The next year and a half is a downward spiral where I get sicker and sicker and spend thousands and thousands of dollars trying to work out what’s wrong. I see…
Mémoir 4~ Functional Practitioner
Recap: I come home from work each day and collapse on my bed and wish the world would stop because I can’t push on any longer, everything is such an effort. In the same week, a family friend (thanks Reneè) and someone my mum works with give me the name of the same Dr in…
