I often see women in clinic with osteopaenia, or low bone density, in their spine or hip, but also quite often in the wrists. This is a great article explaining the link between grip strength and longevity and what to do about it.

Your ability to squeeze, lift, and hold can say a lot about how well you’re aging. Improving it now could add healthy years to your life.

Pregnancy is a magical journey filled with excitement and anticipation. However, for many expectant mothers, it can also come with its fair share of challenges, and one of the most common ones is nausea, often referred to as morning sickness.

My latest blog aims to shed light on the causes, treatment options, and management tips for dealing with nausea during pregnancy. Read more here: https://thepregnancynaturopath.com.au/navigating-nausea-a-guide-to-dealing-with-pregnancy-related-morning-sickness/

If you're planning on pregnancy now or in the new year, consider how you can best prepare your body for a positive result.

In our daily lives we are exposed to many hidden toxins, quite often in foods, products and our environment. Toxins impact both female and male fertility and can also negatively impact foetal development.

I encourage you to educate yourself so you can make the best choices during your fertility journey. Read my latest blog to help boost your fertility or join me for a free webinar on Wednesday, 6th December from 7pm to learn more about minimising toxins for fertility by heading to my website to read blog or register for webinar here: https://cerulean-constrictor.webinarninja.com/live-webinars/10502893/register

Don’t try and fix others….just hug 🤗

Imagine if when you were crying growing up instead of “stop your crying” you got a hug. And a little rub on your back.

Imagine when a friend came to you with something so stressful, instead of the impulse to give advice, you just grabbed their hand and told them “I’m here to listen.”

Imagine when you felt sad or down (for no “apparent” reason)—someone you loved wrapped their arms around you and gave you a big hug.

Human touch is one of the greatest healers.

We overlook it.

And yet every inch of our body is meant to co-regulate with everything and everyone around us.

We want to talk and think our way out of everything.

It’s time to soothe each other. Pause with each other. And stop expecting ourselves to be machines.

More hugs, less advice
