While putting this collage together, I realised that I've always seeked some form of nature therapy when going on holidays. Also known as Ecotherapy, our connection to the natural world has numerous benefits. It doesn't matter where you go and it doesn't need to be a 'green space' ... it can be near the water, the desert, country side, the snow or your local walking track.

Some of the many benefits include:

Reduced stress: Being surrounded by fresh air and natural beauty can have a calming effect on the mind and body, helping you to relax.

Being in nature can boost mood, enhance self-esteem, and decrease symptoms of mental health disorders.

Many ecotherapy activities involve physical movement, such as hiking or outdoor sports. Regular activity helps in so many areas, including improved heart health, increased strength and reduced risk of chronic diseases.

Nature's peaceful and stimulating environment can help clear the mind, improve focus, and promote creative thinking.

Natural environments can strengthen the immune system. Fresh air, sunlight, plants and trees contribute to a healthier immune system, reducing the risk of illness.

If you engage in group activities outdoors, it provides opportunities for social interaction and connection - this can foster a sense of belonging and social support.

Menopause & peri-menopause isn't only about hormonal balance ... it's a time to re-assess priorities in life.

You used to be able to get away with a frantic lifestyle, however the body needs more balance now. Hormonal changes makes it more difficult to deal with stress and your adrenal glands are working overtime. A stressed body = more hot flushes & other symptoms.

You know that feeling when you walk into a room & sense something is not quite right. You're reading or feeling the energy of the people or interactions that have occurred - your environment is always communicating with you. Awareness of the energy you project onto others & what others project can help you work on your boundaries. Tuning in to how you feel is one of the simplest ways to become aware of who & what affects your energy. Your wellbeing requires you to check in with your own energy & those around you.

My dog keeps me on track & reminds me to take a break each day and of course a daily walk 🦮. Time out may seem like time wasting, however it can help you to organise your thoughts, refocus & be more productive. 🐶

On the weekend I participated in an art class for something fun - my owl turned out better than I had anticipated. Thanks to Deb Webb Art for a great lesson.

I started thinking about how creativity can improve your health & here are some benefits of getting creative:

🎨 Creativity gets you in a state of flow or 'in the zone'

🎨 A state of flow reduces anxiety, slows heart rate & boosts mood

🎨 Creating something increases dopamine & increases motivation

🎨 Creative engagement reduces depression and sharpens senses

🎨 It focuses the mind & gives the mind a rest from over-thinking

🎨 Helps integrate left & right brain function

🎨 Increases positive emotions & improves immune function

There are many ways to get creative: drawing/painting, writing, photography, dancing, cooking, woodwork, landscape design, sewing to name a few. Sometimes doing something completely different will help us to feel more alive.

I thought it was about time to put myself out there & introduce myself on social media, as I normally I like to stay in the background.

I'm Teresa, the practitioner behind Everyday Vitality. I'm a degree qualified Naturopath, a Kinesiologist and also have a Diploma in Professional Counselling. I have found that a blend of these skills work well together, as it helps to address health issues relating to the body, mind & the spirit. I offer face to face appointments in Wantirna, Melbourne as well as online consults.

I changed my career mid life after bringing up two wonderful children who are now adults. I grew up with a number of chronic health issues such as asthma, eczema and food intolerance. I couldn't get help to address the underlying cause, so this was the catalyst to me deciding to pursue studies in this field … which has helped me immensely.

I work on all facets health, although I have a special interest working on improving gut/digestive health, food intolerance, skin issues, anxiety, stress and enhancing immune health. I enjoy working with people of all ages, although lately I have been seeing more young people who have been a delight to work with. It’s great to be able to connect with teens & adolescents, empower them and assist in their wellbeing at a young age.

I believe in balance in all areas of life and keeping it real – I offer holistic or whole-person care and respect the healing capacity of each individual. If you would like to find out more, head to my website or send me a message.

We don't really think about our skin much until something goes wrong or we notice wrinkles appear. The skin barrier plays a crucial role in not only how our skin looks & feels but also our innate immune system.

It's our first line of defence & plays a critical role in preventing allergens and microbes (bacteria, viruses, parasites, fungi etc) from entering the body. Through multiple different ways, the skin barrier can kill viruses & fungi and control inflammation. Skin barrier defects can also lead to systemic allergic responses, such as food allergies and asthma.

To protect & maintain your skin barrier:

👉 Regularly moisturise to prevent dryness.
👉Choose a moisturiser that helps protect skin barrier with fatty acids e.g. ceramides.
👉 Use gentle, non-perfumed skin products that protect your pH levels.
👉 Avoid hot showers, over washing & over use of sanitisers.
👉 Keep skin routine simple.
👉 Stay well hydrated
👉 Manage your stress
👉 Include adequate protein in your diet & antioxidants which helps with skin structure.
👉 Ensure you are having healthy fats such as omega 3's in your diet.
👉 Maintain healthy gut bacteria
👉 Protect your skin with non-chemical sunscreen.

It's difficult to know whether or not to maintain an exercise program when we have painful joints. Gentle, low impact & appropriate physical activity that is within your fitness ability has numerous benefits on joints, as long as you are not experiencing a flare.

Increasing circulation to joints supplies the synovial membrane with beneficial oxygen and nutrients & also helps break down and remove damaged cells (cellular waste). Even 5 minutes a day can benefit those joints and encourages circulation of the synovial fluid.

Gentle exercises that can help with improving joint mobility include walking, gentle yin or restorative yoga, weight training, swimming, cycling, mobility & stretching.

(Please note that this is general information only & as there are different health conditions that cause pain, you should see a health practitioner for your individual needs & circumstances).

Under the right conditions, the body can take care of its own healing. Identifying unresolved obstacles or underlying stressors is the key to support the process.

Kinesiology (or muscle testing) accurately helps to identify which area to prioritise. Once acknowledging & resolving the trigger, the natural healing process can then take place.

If you subconsciously give away your power - you give it to something or someone else. This creates an imbalance in your thoughts, emotions and physical body, eventually leading to exhaustion, feeling drained and becoming physically unwell. Your power is within - not outside of yourself. Empowerment is giving back that power & autonomy to yourself.

Unknowingly giving away power can look like:

👉 Looking to or relying on another for your happiness.

👉 Continually seeking advice from other people & not making your own decisions.

👉 Feeling responsible for everyone else & putting yourself last.

👉 A friendship which is always one-sided.

👉 Allowing another person to make all the decisions for you or having control over you.

Your body needs your power to sustain energy and wellbeing, however this is never discussed in mainstream healthcare. First step in reclaiming your power is recognising it and conscious awareness.
