Click into the photo to read the whole text. I was at the beach yesterday thinking how little time I spend doing “nothing”. I know there is value in it but struggle to do it. Perhaps now I’ve recognised the behaviour it will change.

Some tips on healthy skin ... and clear information about what type of collagen to use.

With life expectancy exceeding 80 years in both Australia and New Zealand, we’re supremely lucky to live longer than ever before. Getting older naturally brings changes in our skin, including a loss of elasticity, blotchiness, fine lines and wrinkles. And let’s face it, most of us are keen to ag...

So... it's my turn to experience hot flushes aka power surges! Wow! what an intense feeling. I am prescribing Estrovera to myself and will let you know how it goes. Here is a clinical study showing how effective and safe the ingredient is. It has been used in Europe since 1993 to alleviate many menopause symptoms. Why should we suffer?

A dry extract from the roots of rhapontic rhubarb (extract Rheum rhaponticum (L.); ERr) has been commercially available in Germany for over two decades to treat menopausal symptoms. However, the molecular basis of its clinical effectiveness remains obscure. ...

This is interesting and I've gotta say there seems to be more people with this type of fatty liver issues. Take a read.

Recent research suggests that increasing dietary vitamin E intake could help in preventing non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).

A study analyzing data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2017-2020) found a correlation between higher vitamin E levels and lower rates of NAFLD, highlighting the potential protective benefits of this antioxidant. Especially noteworthy is its efficacy in individuals without high blood lipid levels.

The man doesn't know that there is a snake underneath.
The woman doesn't know that there is a stone crushing the man...

The woman thinks,
“I'm going to fall! and I can't climb because the snake is going to bite me! Why can't the man use a little more strength and pull me up!"

The man thinks,
“I am in so much pain! Yet I'm still pulling you as much as I can! why don't you try to climb a little harder?!"

The moral is: You can't see the pressure the other person is under, and the other person can't see pain that you're in.

This is life, no matter whether it's with work, family, feelings or friends we should try to understand each other.

Learn to think differently, perhaps more clearly and communicate better.

A little thought and patience goes a long way.

Here’s some info on the practice of Yoga Nidra. It’s a relaxing and refreshing technique that is restorative. All you do is lay in a comfortable position and listen. YouTube Ally Boothroyd yoga and you’ll find a heap to choose from. I often choose a session for sleep.

I try and do a Yoga Nidra some time in the middle of the day. Depending on how much time I feel like I have, I may search youtube or Spotify for a 10, 20, 45 or hour long Yoga Nidra meditation.
Yoga Nidra certainly does revitalise my energy.
I remember a few years back I seen a question in a yoga teachers group about how much personal yoga do they do outside of teaching. I remember being exhausted just reading the question thinking I should be doing more. But after struggling from fatigue and healing I physically couldn’t do any more. My response was just that, I’m exhausted between teaching that I don’t do my own practice, and that all I have energy for outside of mumming, working, teaching was yoga Nidra. The comments I received were so heart warming, saying that yoga Nidra is a practice in itself. And now I believe its an important one at that.
Please see pic below for just some of the benefits of this beautiful practice.
Remember it is a practice, It doesnt happen over night, but it will happen.

a very interesting study from University Collage London about depression. It's not a chemical imbalance. Perhaps more an imbalance in life?

After decades of study, there remains no clear evidence that serotonin levels or serotonin activity are responsible for depression, according to a major review of prior research led by UCL scientists.

Once again it seems the cornerstone to good health is the gut.
