There really is nothing like great quality CPD to fire 🔥 up your passion for your topic!
My fire 🔥 is never far away but sometimes it lacks fuel. Today is bringing plenty of fuel ⛽️ 😎

Thank you, NIMH for two great speakers (so far).
♡ Simon Mills, a stalwart and beacon of HM since the 1970s
♡ Nina Fuller-Shavel in Integrative Oncology bringing huge amounts of inspiring confidence to the table in sharing the best of both worlds.

Having worked for the (sadly no-longer-in-existence) Prince's Foundation for Integrated Health 20 years ago, I felt part of something really important. A move towards our futures. Futures full of good health, of collaboration and shared drive for positive, healthy outcomes. It's so good to hear some of that reflected in the words of these people.

I had an amazing energy healing session yesterday. The practitioner made it seem and feel (through my releasing tears) so easy.
Maybe it is.
I felt much lighter afterwards, having rapidly processed some big stuff.

Today, though, I'm feeling pulled back down, heavier again. I nearly didn't read the above from 's post, as sometimes it just feels too much to consider the planetary shenanigans on top of all else.
BUT... this completely sums it up. What I'm quagmired in, is old sh and those old patterns of self-doubt and self-sabotage.

So, my choices are...
🪷 I can step aside from these feelings rather than being entrenched in them. Not squashing. Stepping to one side, being more detached from the feelings.
🪷 I could chose to observe instead of letting them drag me down.
🪷 I could be grateful for the signposting which it's gifting me.

🪷🪷🪷 And, I can utilise the tools I've spent years amassing to soothe, comfort and release the parts of me which still believe the old stuff.

Or, I can sink under, believing the messages I'm hearing.

Are you aware of this process within yourself? How often do you inadvertently 'choose' to believe old stuff which no longer serves you?

I'm going to select a Flower Remedy, do some tapping and lift myself up. It's OK.

Would you like help lifting yourself up out of old patterns which no longer serve you?
Get in touch to book a chat to find out which of my tools 🔧 (herbal medicine, EFT-TAPPING, Flower Remedies) would suit you best.

The smell of this root is surprisingly appealing. Not sure I could describe it, but it's light, sweet(ish), and has a delicate pungence to it.

I use dandelion in my practice a lot. The actions I refer to in the video are just some of the ways I harness its power.

I love that the leaf contains potassium, replacing that which gets lost from its diuretic action.

I use the root the most. Constipation comes through my doors (not that's not an obscure analogy 😄) a lot and this is my favourite herb to begin shifting that pattern. As you may have heard in other videos, it's far from the only thing I advise but, it gets into a lot of prescriptions.

If you're battling with constipation, give me a shout. You can find me at Carmenta-Life in Berkhamsted.

3 Fs and now 2 Ms!
Me**es and medication can affect the transit of waste through your body. Here are some suggestions to help keep things flowing...
The 3 Fs - fluid, fibre, 'feels' or massage

Anticipate that pre-ovulation or pre-bleed slow down by upping fluids, fibre and feels beforehand to keep things moving.

Constipation enables water-soluble waste metabolites to have the opportunity to be reabsorbed... which is why it makes us feel so groggy.

If those things don't work, come and see me. I've got loads of herbs, almost literally up my sleeves to sort you out.

Constipated? I've got some basic tips here to support your bowl to get moving.
I really notice if I skip my fluids or fibre as my gut can be a little prone to slowing down its transit!!

If you're looking for support for constipation because as well as these self-care tips, there's loads we can do with herbal medicines to heal and nourish your gut.

I am completely loving 's amazing book. I started to read it last summer and have continued this year. It's full of such incredible insight and written with the beautiful smile we see in YouTube videos from Prune.
Many things have struck me but my thunderbolt, in my peri-menopausal years, is about kindness.
I deeply desire participation in greater kindness to myself, for myself and for that to have a profound impact on others. To embrace and be a bit part player in the ripple effect of kindness spreading through our world.
We really need it. I really need it. I feel it so strongly.
Thank you, Prune, for this gift.

Comfort eating. It's a huge topic.
It's one of the topics of my Body Peace Project.
We even bring along foods which signify comfort and look at and smell them and tap on how they make us feel.
We identify the feelings which trigger the need for comfort when we reach for the food which we feel comforts us.
We start the process of disconnecting that comfort association.
Journalling and tapping are the key tools we use to begin that disconnection and in disconnecting those associations, we begin to re-connect with things which are more healthful in supporting us when we need comfort.

Does this resonate with you?
Join us on 18th September to begin your Body Peace Project. DM me for more details.

Peppermint is a great herb but can be a b of a trigger for reflux. Your tea packet from the Supermarket won't come with a warning. But, it should. Mints can relax the upper stomach muscle and cause reflux!

I love to work with folk with digestive troubles. 💩 The herbs are a big fan of the gut... as am I! We start there and work outwards. It's really key to getting the rest of you 'in order' as well.

Drop me a line if you have digestive trouble you're not getting relief from. I have a digestive reset on my website. We spend 12-weeks together really digging into your gut, weeding out the problem and sowing seeds for a longer-term good gut-feeling. ✊
