Yesterday I was meeting up for lunch with some of my friends. The weather was amazing and I knew the vegan spring roll starters that I made, was delicious. I felt excited and confident until I came upstairs to change. I decided to wear a pretty blue and white, tie & dye jumpsuit, which I …

Eliminate STRESS to be your BEST
If there is one piece of advice I could share, it would be to put your health first above anything else. As I was growing up, every morning- at 6am promptly- I would hear from my bedroom, my dad leaving home, lovingly saying goodbye to my mum with a kiss followed by the words, ‘love …
Being Mindful
I was teaching some 9 year olds a few relaxation techniques today. It was just amazing to see how a classroom full of excited, noisy, bubbly and effervescent children, react to a calm voice. As I told them to take a deep breath in and feel their lungs and abdomen expand with air, they gently closed their eyes. …
Cutting ties….
Yesterday, a new patient walked into my therapy room, sat across me and poured her heart out. After years and years of allowing others to control her….she was close to breaking point. This control was not just physical but mental attachments. She felt weighed down and her life felt like it stood still. I instantly …

It’s the holidays: Is it stress-full or stress-free?
‘Tis the season to be jolly… It’s great listening to Christmas songs echoing through shopping mall, radio stations and loving homes. No one wants to miss out on the holiday excitement.

Journeys to the unknown
We’ve all been here! How many times have you heard people say, “I don’t know what to do….What if it’s the wrong decision?…I could be making a huge mistake…I don’t know what’s in stall for me….etc.” I know for a fact that I have been in this conundrum too many times.
