New capsule making contraption!! I was inspired to finally take the plunge and buy one after visiting . It makes 100 at a time instead of 50.

I'm still feeling my way round it, but the fact that you can cap ALL THE CAPSULES at the same time is an enormous bonus!

The instructions tell you to shake it with the separated empty capsules in the tray and they fall into the holes. Yeah, so they do actually do that, but mainly upside down......... I'm trying to decide if the fiddly correction is quicker than just popping them into each hole manually as I separate.

Plenty of practice time coming up - I've got another 300 capsules to make!

If you have experienced living with an eating disorder - either yourself or a loved one - you will know how difficult it is to refeed, combat the weight loss and psychological damage it causes and prevent future relapses.

This article discusses the very strong possibility that it there is a scientific basis to the disorder, which is, in part, potentially initiated by malfunctioning food reward centres in the brain.

Society needs to stop the blame and shame culture that exists around eating disorders, support sufferers and their families and push for better funding into this much needed research.

Menopause can be tough, draining, and often utterly debilitating experience for many women. However is a normal, natural process that is often over-medicalised. There are a huge variety of therapies available to manage symptoms in menopause, and it is really important to remember that symptoms are worse around the transition, and over time therapies may not be as needed.

It is wrong to approach menopause from a disease model. A herbalist will take the time to understand your life and your body, and will offer dietary tips, lifestyle advice and natural medicines to help you manage the changes you are going through.

Visit our Better Menopause, Naturally resource (https://buff.ly/3s3wCNl) to find out more about the natural support available during menopause, and use our Find A Herbalist (https://buff.ly/3EuY8bj) tool to find a registered herbalist close to you

If you're self employed, feeling overwhelmed and keep meaning to readjust your work/life balance, or perhaps you intend to do some meaningful networking, book onto one of Tina's netwalking sessions.

Running on the first Monday of each month, you will benefit from meeting other business folk, spending time in nature and the wisdom that Tina has to offer as a nature inspired mentor.

I can guarantee that you will boost your wellbeing and come away feeling more calm and focussed. It's only a couple of hours each month and would be a great start to achieving better balance.

Where can you have a consultation with me?

There have been some recent changes to my available practice rooms.

I will be continuing to offer consultations at Bury Natural Health Centre - who are moving to new premises next week (see post below) and also at The Original Alternative shop in the centre of Bury St Edmunds.

Sadly for me, the Osteopath in Newmarket retired at the end of last year, and the rooms I practiced from are no longer available. I will not be seeking new premises in Newmarket.

If you'd like to find out whether herbal medicine can help you, please get in touch!

WE'RE MOVING!

We'd like to let you know that Bury Natural Health Centre is moving. We'll now be based at:

It's overcast and a little mizzly, but there are about 25 stalls here, selling a variety of crafts and gifts. And of course, me!

Come down and say hello! We are at the Greyhound pub in Wickhambrook until 3 today. You could grab a tasty pub lunch while you're here.

Once again, conference is on-line this year. It's really tricky being around the family (and all their expectations!) while trying to be 'away at conference'!!

I do miss the physical connection with my herbies, but so far there have been some very thought provoking talks. I'm looking forward to revisiting them with a pen and note paper.

I learned last year that I can't do too much zoom and absorb all the information, so my tactic this year is to just listen and note whether I would listen again for the finer details.
