You get a pen and blank journal … Read More

Did you know that prior to menopause a woman’s womb cleanses itself once a month? You may know this as a woman’s ‘period’.

Vulnerability, for most of us, is scary. It can quite literally petrify the knickers off us, for fear of being attacked or ridiculed.

Being willing to sit with ourself and love ourself in our most … Read More

When we think of healthy digestion, the natural inclination is to first look to what we’re eating. Hippocrates did say: ‘Let food be thy medicine,’ after-all! And it’s absolutely true that we need to choose our foods wisely, for what we eat, we become. Think about it… Our body takes food and transforms the best bits of that food into … Read More
