A little of what I was loving in October HEALTHY Loving Earth Raw Chocolate I don’t eat chocolate too often these days (I like it, it unfortunately doesn’t like me much). I can seem to get away with a little taster here and there but if I have too much or too often, my stomach […]
A Hygge Happy Glow

Autumn is definitely upon us… the days are getting shorter, the weather is getting colder and the leaves on the trees are turning all colours of red and gold. While I do love this time of year I normally dread the drudgery of winter (I’m a cold creature). But this year I’ve decided I’m going […]
September Favourites

Here are a few things I was loving in September: HEALTHY Bone Broth from Alchemy Juice As the weather is changing to being a bit chilly, I’m craving warming foods. Bone broth is like a warm hug in a mug and it’s so nutritious – loads of health benefits. It’s pretty easy to make but […]
August Favourites

HEALTHY Viridian Sports Electrolyte Fix During and following my Clear Passage therapy I’ve been instructed to drink isotonic sports drinks to help with oedema and to replenish my electrolytes. The only thing is that a lot of those sports drinks are full of sugar which I hated drinking because of the high sugar and they […]

In a bid to avoid surgery to deal with strictures (narrowing of intestine) due scarring from Crohn’s disease inflammation I am going to travel to the UK in a few weeks to undergo physical therapy which is supposed to break down the scar tissue. I’ll blog about my experience and why I chose to try […]

I love looking at other people’s monthly favourites so thought I’d start a monthly series of my own under the headings healthy, happy and glow. Here we go: Healthy Irish strawberries There’s nothing like an Irish strawberry – sweet and juicy with the most amazing smell! It’s one of my smells of summer that transports […]
Can a Spring Clean Lead to Greater Happiness?
Posted on April 15, 2016 Leave a Comment
Thankfully spring has sprung and we’re starting to see the end of winter. I often feel like I’m coming out of hibernation at this time of year and am ready to start afresh. I itch to spring clean my home, open doors and windows to let fresh air in and the stagnant energy out, plant […]
What is ‘health’?
Posted on January 22, 2016 Leave a Comment
I’d say most people’s resolutions after Christmas involved getting ‘healthy’ in some shape or form. It’s something I’ve been thinking a lot about recently. With a number of high profile and wealthy celebrities passing away this month from cancer like David Bowie and Alan Rickman, it’s evident that when it boils down to it, true […]
The Non-Deprivation Way to Detox (you can eat food!)
Posted on January 11, 2016 Leave a Comment
I’d hazard a guess and say that this is the most popular time of year for juice cleanses and detox programmes. After weeks of over-indulgence in rich and sugar-laden foods and drinks over the Christmas season, people are gung-ho about ‘cleaning up their act’, getting ‘back on the band wagon’ and repenting for their sins.
