You know what it’s like to be in a relationship where the other person is hot one minute, cold the next. It doesn’t feel that warm or fuzzy, does it? When they’re not ‘committing’ to you… Well, this is often how people are with themselves. They have this on-again off-again relationship. One minute they’re supporting themselves full out – doing … Read More
If you’ve ever tried to create change in your life, even just a small change such as learning something new… then chances are you’ve probably experienced at least a little self-sabotage. Self-sabotage is where we either consciously or more commonly, unconsciously, act and behave in a way that prevents us from reaching our goals or achieving the results we want. … Read More
Nagging never works. In fact, if you do it enough, you’ll simply be met with a fire-works display of disdain and negativity or maybe a cold shoulder. So how do you get people to pick up their game? How do you lovingly encourage them to actually do what you’re asking of them? To take your advice on board? You offer … Read More
Relationships can be tricky at times, especially when the other person isn’t treating us the way we wish to be treated.

We all have mixed relationships and feelings about menstruation. But what if we treated our monthly flow as a time where we got to retreat from the world, so we can rest, restore and replenish?

As a child we are quite literally programmed for a certain experience … Read More

Perhaps even selfish. But here’s the thing… We need to be full – our love tank needs to be overflowing – … 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

If there’s one health complaint I hear from women regularly, it’s that they’ve been diagnosed as having fibroids. Some women might only have one or two, while others might have literally dozens of them. And for the women who do have invasive procedures to clear them out of the uterus, the fibroids usually return within months, often more severely. Shockingly, … Read More
Earthing. Feeling grounded. What does that feel like?

The one thing that is consistent however, is life. You are … Read More

Journalling is a beautiful, and ridiculously cheap way of processing challenges and traumas and simply making sense of life. I consider journalling like emptying out the mind-trash that drains our energy, keeps us in an anxious state and stops us from being able to sleep at night. Because that’s essentially what it is. You get a pen and blank journal … Read More
Coherence. It’s a big word. But what does it really mean? I’ll get to that shortly, but just now, I’d like you to ponder some questions.

The belief of ‘I can’t afford it’ is pervasive in our culture. As a … Read More
Chances are you’ve heard the term introvert and extrovert as a way of describing someone’s personality. Extroverts are thought of as people who feel the most comfortable when working with other people, spending time in groups, and being social. Extroverts are said to draw their energy from the outside world, and are often considered more confident and outgoing. They also … Read More
‘If you told me 12-months ago that we were about to go into a global pandemic of epic proportions, with lockdowns around the world, and staggering stats including over 200,000 deaths in the US and rising, I would’ve thought “Wow really? That’s crazy! It sounds like a science-fiction film”.’ But if you told me that with cases and deaths rising, … Read More

Do I have a weak pelvic floor or a strong pelvic floor? Great question. And you might be surprised by the answer. So let me start by explaining that there are actually two ways a pelvic floor can be weak. Firstly, there is a loose pelvic floor. It’s so loose that it’s lost the ability to naturally contract to perform … Read More
The pelvic floor is generally a part of the body that we rarely give thought to. That is, until we experience a problem with it, such as incontinence or lower back pain. But hey, that’s true of most things, right? We only pay attention, once our body (or another part of our life) starts screaming at us. If the infamous … Read More
If you’re ever tried to create change in your life, even just a small change such as learning something new – perhaps a language or a musical instrument – then chances are you’ve probably experienced at least a little self-sabotage. Self-sabotage is where we either consciously or unconsciously (the latter usually being the case) act and behave in a way … Read More
We’ve all been there; we really wanted something, and so we’ve tried this manifesting thing. We focused really hard on what we wanted – just like they teach us in the book The Secret – but it didn’t work. And maybe you’ve tried it a few times. Yet, for some reason, you manage to manifest some things, but can’t seem … Read More
What’s coffee got to do with anxiety? Put simply… Coffee puts the body into a low level state of anxiety. You see, coffee is a stimulant. Maybe you’ve noticed after a coffee or three you feel a bit jittery? Or perhaps it only happens when you have a really strong coffee. Or maybe coffee has become such a regular in … Read More
Let me start by saying… Menstruation is not a curse. Menstruation is not a royal pain in the backside, or an inconvenient interruption to our life. Menstruation is our wise-time. A time for rest, radical self-care, inner reflection and deep healing. Menstruation is the one time every month we’re given the opportunity to go inside, uncover the ‘stuff’ that’s no … Read More
Tampons. They’re convenient. But are they healthy? No. Even the natural ones are doing harm to your uterus. Let me explain… Once a month our womb (uterus) cleanses itself. This is what we call our ‘period’. Other organs in the body also keep themselves healthy by doing cleanses. For example, each night the liver cleanses our blood, our bladder empties … Read More
We all know what it feels like to wake up after a night of good quality sleep. AWESOME, right!!! Yet, very few of us make sleep a priority.

Perception is everything…. what does that even mean?? You’re probably holed up at home right now, maybe in a small apartment, like us! I’ll admit, our big rainforest backyard in Australia would have been much nicer than our tiny French balcony right now, but none-the less… Maybe you have to share that space with many people, or you’re alone, which … Read More

What a week it’s been: From hospital quarantine to home retreat. On Friday, my 2-year-old son was hospitalised, with concerns he was the first Coronavirus case in the children’s hospital here in Rennes. Thankfully the next day, he was cleared of that, and we were moved out of the Coronavirus ward (phew!!), and into the main children’s area, so the … Read More
If you’re not tucked away in a little mountaintop cave without wifi, chances are you’ve heard about the Coronavirus.

‘I don’t have time to meditate.’ It’s something I hear a lot. Perhaps you say it yourself!

Not having enough time for these kinds of soul nourishing activities is super common … Read More
Human emotions. Boy can they knock us about!
