Mindset Matters…
I was talking at a holistic fayre on Sunday about my 5 pillars of healing: Know your values, hydrate properly, connect to your breath, move your body, and love your lymph. Someone asked me, what do you do if you are not even ready for those steps, if they feel too far out of your […]
Salmon & spinach curry with aromatic rice and sourdough flatbread
This one isn’t my usual chop-and-drop recipe… But it’s still easy and I can assure you it’s worth it! In advance, you need to prepare your sourdough starter to make the flatbreads. I used to just buy chapati wraps from the shops (convenience is great) until I looked at the ingredients list. A chapati or […]

Lower back pain might be coming from tight hips
Hello, If you spend a lot of your day sitting on a chair (including your sofa), chances are you will have tight hips. There is a possibility you are not aware that you have tight hips, if you sit, and have lower back pain, it could be coming from your hips. The incredible thing about your […]
Easy Laksa Curry
Along with Indian food, Thai is up there with my favourites. It’s always full of flavour and tastes fresh and healthy! This is an easy recipe for making veggie or adding chicken, prawns or tofu if you wish. As with all the recipes I share, the more variety of veg you use, the more fiber […]
Nourishing movement, make movement your medicine
I love movement. Even in stillness, there is always movement in your body: with your breath, the lungs, chest, diaphragm, and organs all move, and with your heart beating, blood flows. The unseen microbes are processing and moving our food and drink through our body, and hormones are being released in connection with our rhythms, […]
Movement is medicine… but why?
I am so glad you asked… Your body has evolved for movement… If it hadn’t, we wouldn’t have the joints and muscles we have. We are built for movement, BUT society isn’t evolving to help us move more, but less in the name of convenience and technological advancement. With the invention of the car, the […]
The ultimate comfort food
What is your ultimate comfort food? My absolute comfort food is macaroni cheese, chips AND garlic bread! BUT… fiber points = pretty much zero, unless I went to the bother of making the vegan version, but that just doesn’t cut it. For my new subscribers, just to update you on what the fiber points thing […]

Saturday Kitchen – Healing Herbal Teas
I start every day with a healing herbal tea. I rarely use t-bags; I use dried herbs and make up my tea blend depending on what I need for the day ahead, what season we are in, where I am in my cycle and what the weather is doing. Herbs that I use if I […]
Take time for reflection BEFORE setting new goals
It can be very easy at this time of year to get caught up in what you want next year to look like… BEFORE you do that, can you take a pause to reflect on the year just gone by? I was a chronic overachiever who never took time to celebrate (or even acknowledge) anything […]
My driving force Why I do what I do…
Edit Edit date and time One of my friends is very into astrology, and we talked about my birth chart… I am Pisces Sun & Moon with a Virgo rising… Apparently, having the same sun and moon sign is quite unusual, and she told me that it usually drives great self-sufficiency. It could explain […]

The toxic messaging in the fitness industry

Grieving the life I ‘should’ have It’s an up and down journey…
“Some of the most complicated grieving we’ll ever do is mourning the life we ‘should’ have had” ~ Dr Glenn Patrick Doyle.
