(FYI that is NOT Ruth in the photo....its some crazy lady who thinks balancing on a cliff edge is a good idea!!!) We're all looking for some sort of balance aren't we? You know where we are healthy, doing a job that is fulfilling and fun and all that...
I am a bit obsessed with green smoothies. I drink one most days and can’t imagine not having them in my life - I even bought a mini hand blender with me on my recent 10-week world travel adventure because I am just THAT cool. But...
Overeating. You know when you eat way too much and feel overly full and sick? Otherwise known as binging. When you know you are not hungry but you still keep on eating and can’t really seem to stop? It may...
When I tell people what I do for a living and that I am a health coach and all about using food as medicine, I often get an immediate run down of people's diets. (As well as people trying to sneak away that Twix or cake they are eating into their...
If you find yourself ‘hangry’ every day, always cravings carbs and sugar, a bit moody, unable to shed any weight and just darn TIRED then chances are you are having issues with your good ol' blood sugar. I know balancing blood sugar doesn’t...
Self-sabotage. Are you familiar with it? I bet you are. Even if you don't know it yet. It's that pizza you just ate even though you didn’t really want it that much but you felt you couldn't be the odd one out ordering at...
Sick of being bloated all the flipping time? Not sure why or even what causes it? I used to be the queen of the bloat. I would go from having a flattish tummy to looking six months pregnant over a single meal time. How attractive. And it not...

It is time for a part 2 update of my current travel adventures. In my last post, I shared with you how I kick started my 10-week travelling adventures with a 5-day fasting detox retreat. I wanted to do my own retreat before I run one in...
I tried really hard to think of sexier name for this. Pea & Sweet Potato Curry sounds very British and plain doesn't it? But trust me this is super delicious. This sort of came together by accident when one night just before we left for our...
So I started to write this as I was sitting and waiting to have a good old, long time, on the toilet. Why? Because I had just downed some Epsom salt water which tasted foul as part of a liver flush at the end of my fasting detox! If...
I LOVE me a green smoothie! Even now as I travel across the globe I have a mini hand blender with me just so I don't have to miss out on green smoothie goodness - THAT is how much I love them/am obsessed with the green stuff. Now one of the things I love...
I have to say I have been downing this green smoothie like there was some sort of world shortage! You know I love me some daily green smoothie action (if you don't click here to find out why) because: they take like 2 minutes to make they help...
I remember the first time I decided to ditch sugar. I was in my final year of uni and along with my other lovely symptoms of depression, IBS, diarrhea and crazy hormones I also started to developed thrush. Nice (and so not sorry for the overshare!) ...
This is part two of a mini-series so make sure you check our part one where we looked at looked at the myth around Candida But today we are going to look at how the heck you get rid of the annoying and problematic thing that is Candida (often...
