Are you building your dream or someone else's?

You’re either working to build your own dream, or you’re being paid by someone else to build their dream. I don’t remember who originally pointed this out to me, but it really struck a chord with me. At the time I was building my own Interiors and Garden Design business and I thought I was sorted. I’d left the confines of the corporate world and was building my own dream. But I was also lonely. Working for myself and all by myself. Yes I had a team of freelancers I could call on to support me in implementing a project, decorating, building, joinery work etc but at the end of the day I was

How to survive an elimination plan

My journey to good health started with an elimination diet that was designed to figure out the root cause of some of my health issues. It did so much more than just that, which is why I’m such a great advocate for undertaking an elimination to get to the bottom of your health concerns.

Choosing Healthy Protein Bars

We’ve all started to become label readers but so often we still fall for the marketing of ‘healthy’ brands and omit to read the small print. The so-called marketing ‘health halo’ is here to stay so if you’re looking for an energy bar that truly provides energy, instead of zapping it, you better start looking at the ingredient labels. No two bars are equal! The key is trying to choose a bar that adds value to your diet and contributes a balance of protein, fibre, whole grains, healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals. If you get it right your snacks will keep blood-sugar levels, and thus your mood

Using essential oils in the home

Aromatherapy can help create a calm and soothing home environment, so often essential to our fast paced lifestyles. But where do you start? I studied aromatherapy 20 years ago but like so much of my holistic practices and approaches to wellbeing that I kept up in my 20’s and early 30s I somehow let it go. Forgotten, my diffuser lay unused except for medical emergencies when one of us had a cold or breathing difficulties that I knew only steam and aromatherapy oils would calm. Now in my 50s I’ve returned to aromatherapy as an effective way of treating anything from a general uneasiness with the
