I have viewed the “lockdown” as a locking in of new ways of being on a deep level. On a level that perhaps I might have prolonged that little bit longer in the busy-ness of life….

Read MoreI guess you get the idea by now, I was big on alternative natural health. By 2010 I had not been to see a GP for close on 20 years, preferring to opt for natural medicines that resonated with me.

Read MoreAs we all come face to face with the reality of climate change and the advocacy so many of us are getting behind, it’s no wonder that plant-based eating is taking the limelight in 2020 as a wellness and environmental movement to jump on board with.
Read MoreThis year we are taking stock of our hormonal health and weaving in more mindful meditation, mental health days and rehab focused fitness. It really is the ticket to optimum health and wellness in 2020!
