    Despite many of us leaving school some years ago, our lives are still dictated by timetables. It may be that you work late on certain days of the week. Perhaps you, or a family member has a club they attend regularly.

  • 213 - Essential Tools for a Healthy Kitchen
    Sep 4 2024

    Didn't we all love getting new pens and books for the new school year? September always feels like a new year, without all the pressure of January resolutions.

    I invite you to take a look in your cupboards, I'm guessing you only use about 20% of whats in there most of the time. Start by clearing out any damaged items, storage containers without lids and anything else you don't use.

    Then decide if you need to invest in new storage or equipment.

    Investing in new storage for lunch can be a great investment, as you are more likely to make a packed lunch if you have a nice container.

    This week I share my tips for a healthy kitchen.

    Of course we want our body to be naturally detoxifying and cleansing efficiently. However as we have learned in previous weeks, we are exposed to a huge number of chemicals.

    So how can we clear them out and support our body if it becomes overwhelmed.

    This weeks I share my top supplements for cleansing, and also what I do personally to help cleanse and reset.

    What you can expect from a cleanse, and how you might feel and the potential dangers of detoxing without the appropriate support.

  • 209 - Toxic Overload
    Aug 7 2024

    If supported well, and not overexposed to toxins, our bodies will naturally detox. We have amazing organs to support this process, however, the modern world and environment means that we are being exposed to more and more chemicals that are putting additional pressure on our bodies and can lead to overload.

    I explain how we are being exposed to multiple chemicals and toxins on a daily basis and where they are commonly coming from.

    Spot the signs of poor detoxification in your own body.
