Although it’s not in the least a new concept, bone broth is enjoying the headlines as the new kid on the block for the latest health food to have in your diet. It’s become so trendy that there are bone broth pop up shops and bars appearing all across the globe! Most people have heard…

I tend to put my lovely ‘candida clients’ into one of two camps. It’s a massively sweeping generalisation I know, but it has been my experience over the past 25+ years! They either crave the sweet things like chocolate, cakes, biscuits or sweets (that was me – at my worst I was eating six large…

With so much chaos, confusion and uncertainty around, it’s good to come back to simplifying our lives wherever possible. And keeping things down to earth and manageable for clients is my signature. In a world that likes to over complicate things, we crave the simple tried-and-tested techniques that work. Your health is the perfect example.…

We’re in our second big lockdown and its having major impacts on our mental health. Reports point to increased rates of suicidal thoughts, and even symptoms of PTSD. There are still negative effects of prolonged isolation, financial concerns and worries about loved ones getting sick. I was fortunate enough to meet with several local business…

Wondering how to fight viruses as we move towards September and schools open up again? It’s important to protect ourselves against viruses as much as we can. Scientists are not entirely sure why coughs and colds are more prevalent in winter months, but a few of the theories include: We spend more time indoors during…

I’ve written about how to relieve insomnia before, because good sleep is such a fundamental piece of the jigsaw for both mental and physical health. And it seems more important than ever before, thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic which is why I’m revisiting it again today. Although scientists aren’t exactly sure what happens during shut…

One of my favourite techniques for myself and clients is EFT Tapping. In fact, I do at least one round of EFT tapping on myself most days. It’s simple enough to teach children and is very quick and effective ‘in the moment’ when you’re spiralling into an emotional reaction. You can calm that reaction down…
