Bad Food Habits

14^th Jul 2017

Nutritious foods will only work for us if we actually eat them and chew them.  Bad foods can't harm us if we leave them out. Here are some things to ponder: If we don't chew enough, our salivary enzymes don't have time to start the digestion process, particularly with carbs. The stomach struggles with carbs, because its priority is to digest proteins. If partially undigested food enters the intestines, it can cause problems like food insensitivies. Meal-skipping = no nutrient intake and erratic blood sugar levels [...]

Eat Wisely, Eat Well

14^th Jul 2017

Fresh is best when it’s eaten fresh. If it kicks around the kitchen or fridge for a few days, vital nutrients disperse into the air and the food starts to oxidise. Buy fruit and vegetables little and often. Buy them slightly unripe and let them ripen on the windowsill to boost nutrient content and flavour. Frozen is next best, because it’s frozen immediately after picking which keeps the nutrients in good condition. However, kicking around the freezer for months will destroy the nutrients. Tins and packets are less nutritious, and some less than others.   [...]

Boost Your Body's Natural Healing Process

13^th Jul 2017

Your body is made up of energy, as well as different parts, organs and processes. Energy flows throughout the whole body, reaching every part of it, while also fuelling your nerves, glands and hormones. The energy flows through the body along pathways called meridians, feeding, rejuvenating and revitalising every part of  it. If the energy flows well, you will enjoy health, energy and wellbeing. If your energy is blocked and not flowing well, you may not feel good [...]

Clutter Workout For Desk & Mind

Spend 4 minutes clutter clearing your desk at the end of each day, and you'll start the next day feeling focused, energised and organised, and will probably be more productive. Spend another 1 minute writing a To-Do list and put a tick by the priorities, and you will have a tidy, organised mind as well as a clear desk. 

Feng Shui Benefits

9^th Jul 2017

Feng shui is based on the flow and laws of nature, how energy (chi) flows through the universe and how it affects people. If we 'go with the flow' of nature, we are balanced and our life flows well. If we go against the flow, things can be challenging. The aim of Feng Shui is to create healthy, positive, balanced and harmonious energy in a property. The property will then support the occupants, and help to improve their mental, physical and emotional wellbeing, their opportunities and all aspects of their life, being health, relationships, career, family, finances, job and more...

Boost Your Mood With Colour

3^rd May 2017

We may not think about colours as we go about our daily life, but we are constantly surrounded by them, and we can use them cleverly to boost our mood. Red, orange and yellow are warm and expansive and can energise us and make us feel elated and joyful. Blue, indigo and purple are soothing, calming and cooling, and can help us to relax. Green can help to restore balance in us, which is why we feel good after a walk in nature [...]

Re-Gain Self-Esteem In The Workplace

28^th Feb 2017

Self-esteem can take a real battering in the modern workplace. It can be a source of stress, anxiety and worry, and can negatively impact a person’s health and life. Maximum productivity, low costs and high income are the priorities, and employees are expendable. There is often no recognition of loyalty or good performance, but plenty of adverse response to apparent under-achievement, even though you may have taken on yet another workload [...]

Declutter Your Website

12^th Feb 2017

We all want to drive visitors to our website, but is the website appealing enough for them to stay around and explore? Is our content interesting or engaging enough, or is there just too much of it, or too much waffle? If you’re lacking visitors, or they visit but don’t convert, and bounce rates are high, it could be time for a website declutter. Think about the website like your home. You clean up for your visitors ... 

The Saturated Fat Dilemma

6^th Feb 2017

How often do we take nutrition advice from the media, only to find that their good food of the moment becomes a bad food later on, and vice versa? A study of saturated fat, done over fifty years ago, determined that it leads to high cholesterol and the risk of heart attack, even though investigations pointed to flawed results [...]
