Why is Fibre so important?

You’re hardly human after all

Did you know you are only about 10% human.  That’s right. If you add up all the cells that are part of what makes “you”, around 90% are cells that are not actually human.  The rest are bacteria and other single-cell organisms that reside on our skin, in our our mouths, in our lungs, but mostly in our digestive system.

Might sound a bit gruesome but it’s actually good news. These bacteria are here to keep us healthy and happy with glowing skin and heaps of energy. But only if we treat them right. Continue reading “Why is Fibre so important?”

Digestion Plus

Digestion Plus is a daily supplement which you take first thing in the morning.  It contains probiotics and prebiotics to keep your gut healthy  and enzymes to assist digestion.

Poor diet, processed foods, stress, lack of sleep, medicines, alcohol – all these things affect our gut health, which, in turn , can have a negative impact on our physical and mental well-being.

I take it everyday and love knowing that I’m helping my hard-working digestive system to keep healthy and balanced.  Continue reading “Digestion Plus”

7 Day Body Cleanse

The world today is a dangerous place. Not because of what we see on the news every night, No. It’s what’s happening inside us we should be worried about. That’s much more likely to do us in!

The “toxic load” on our bodies is greater today than ever before. And our poor digestive system is overloaded and often unable to deal with everything we throw at it.

We now know that many of the conditions which are so prevalent today – IBS, eczema, constipation, chronic fatigue, and much worse – are caused by the body acting against itself and there is lots of evidence that our diet and lifestyle is a major contributory factor.

But we are not helpless victims, there’s plenty we can do to reduce our risks.  Continue reading “7 Day Body Cleanse”

You’re just 30 days away from a more healthy lifestyle

Most of us want to live healthy lives. We want to be well, free of disease, full of energy, free from pain and looking forward to a long, happy life.

But the reality is that most of us actually don’t. Where does it all go wrong?

My colleague Dr Tanda Cook explains all here, and shows how the Arbonne 30 day plan can help you achieve a healthy, happy life.

We are learning so much about how our diet and lifestyle affects every part of our well-being. Many of the most common killers are avoidable, and we all know the impact obesity is having on our society and health system.

I talk to lots of people who want to be more healthy but just don’t know where to start.

I use and recommend the Arbonne 30 Days to Healthy Living and Beyond. It’s not a diet, it’s a way to incorporate better eating habits into your life. It has changed my life and it could change yours.  Continue reading “You’re just 30 days away from a more healthy lifestyle”

We are Limitless

Just back from Vegas – and brimming with excitement.

So, so proud to be part of this amazing movement. Thousands of women and men working hard to achieve success on their own terms.

We’ve all made the choice to strike out on our own. Nobody is going to tell us how to live our lives. No schedules, no boss, no monday to friday or 9 to 5, no office politics, no being passed over for promotion, no fear of redundancy, no mandatory retirement age.

But also no regular pay packet, no pension contributions, no sick pay. We work hard to earn big. And we play big too. As you can see here. Continue reading “We are Limitless”

Do your clothes spark joy?

Spring is on its way and it’s time for a bit of seasonal cleaning.

I’m not suggesting you get out the marigolds – that can wait for another day – but this month we’re cleaning out the most important cupboard in the house. That’s right, your wardrobe.

Or is it wardrobes, plural? Or is it wardrobes plus the airing cupboard and the closet in the spare room?

Just how many clothes do you have in your house? DO you love each and every item?  Continue reading “Do your clothes spark joy?”

Holding back the years

January can be a difficult month. By “Blue Monday” most of us are beating ourselves up over broken resolutions. The willpower of New Year’s day disappearing along with the last of the Christmas cake washed down with a few glasses of Baileys whilst bingeing on the box set you got from the kids.  You too?

Let’s be kind to ourselves. Allow January to pass slowly by as we finish the mountain of nuts and eventually get the glitter out of the carpet. Come February we’ll be raring to go. That’s the time to start thinking ahead. The snowdrops are peeking and daffodils are already in the shops. Spring can’t be far away.

This is the last year I’ll see my fifties (yikes!). I’m a grandmother (hooray!). And the knees can be a bit dodgy in the mornings. But I’m not giving in.

When I get on the dance floor I can still show the youngsters a thing or two.

My theme for 2018? “Holding back the years”. Here’s my top tips for keeping old age at bay. Continue reading “Holding back the years”
