This week I’ve had a great opportunity to practice what I preach! In my DVD lecture “The Emotional Aspects of Healing” I talk about value judgements and how we label situations as “good” or “bad” and then feel accordingly – even though we often don’t know where the bigger picture is leading us and the

I was flicking through the TV channels one night, and saw a show where they were helping people to “look 10 years younger in 10 days”. Totally mindless viewing of course – but I couldn’t believe what I saw on there! Along with the botox treatments, dermal fillers, eye-lifts, exercise, hair do’s and tons of

Hhmm. This is a difficult subject for me. In the past I spent a lot of time comparing myself to others and felt bad because I just didn’t measure up. Which led to doing a lot of personal growth work and over time I developed a much more healthy self-esteem and sense of self. Just

While I was over in Perth last weekend, I caught up with some friends of mine, John Wood and his wife Ronnie. They were generous enough to have me over for a flying visit for dinner, and they made me the most fantastic four course raw gourmet meal! John is a real inspiration. Three years

Following on from my blog post a week ago “What Did We Do Before Mobiles?” I have another observation that comes up a lot when I “people watch” on my afternoon walks – and that is that most people don’t look comfortable in their own skin. If you just look around you will notice quite

I love lemons! The humble lemon is such a powerful healing tool in a our “food as medicine” tool-kit, and they make a wonderful addition to our diet. Lemons are thought to be acidic but due to their high mineral content they are actually alkalising upon digestion. Lemons are a natural antiseptic inside and out and stimulate the digestive

Today I am off on a whirlwind trip for ARL Pathology, lecturing at Practitioner Discussion Groups for Doctors and Naturopaths in Adelaide and Perth. ARL is the leader in the field of what is called “functional pathology”. Not just looking for overt diseases, their large range of comprehensive tests search for biochemical imbalances that can
