It’s Been A While…

by Leisa on October 10, 2010

It’s been well over a month since I last wrote on my blog, and a big thank you to everyone who wrote to see if everything was OK! There’s a couple of reasons why I haven’t been blogging as usual – one is that it’s been that wonderfully busy spring retreat season again, and over

I Was on the News!

by Leisa on August 27, 2010

During the Dr Sherrill Sellman Tour, Channel Nine Gold Coast News took an interest in the subjects that Sherrill was speaking about, and did a short segment for the news, on hormonal influences in breast cancer. Isn’t it fantastic that the topic was raised in the mainstream media? I was asked about Saliva Hormone Testing, as

A couple of nights ago I spoke at Soul Sessions – an intimate cafe experience which is the brain child of Sydney based journalist Eloise King. “Soul Sessions is a series of events providing an intimate space for the sharing of soulful, health and self-development focused intellectual property.

Medical Mistakes

by Leisa on June 24, 2010

Sitting in the hairdresser’s last week, I was reading the June issue of Madison Magazine and found an article on medical mistakes.  I wish I had asked to keep the article because I’ve tried to find a June copy from the local newsagents, but it is no longer available, and I wanted to quote some

Just last weekend I spend three days at the Metagenics 2010 International Congress, and as I mentioned in one of my previous posts, I loved every  minute of it.

I was sent some copies of these cards in an e-mail and almost fell off my chair laughing! I guess you probably have to be into fruits and vegetables to really appreciate the humour – but I thought they were just great.  Everyone I know had better watch out, because I think for the next

When I was in Adelaide for the David Wolfe Tour – I met the lovely Remedy Bliss who generously hosted as at her home and shared all her wonderful, wonderful food with us. One big hit with me, was Rem’s Kale Chips.  She grows the kale in her organic garden, and then makes the yummiest

Raw Food Perfectionism

by Leisa on April 18, 2010

I admire perfectionism, I have a healthy dose of this trait myself – but it is when perfectionist tendencies turn rigid that they become a problem – both for the person with the stratospheric expectations, and for those around them. Perfectionism – the need for things to be 100% perfect all the time, can engender
