As someone who beat a stage 3 COPD death sentence, these herbs/spices were instrumental in my healing process. Thanks to Anna Palm for the meme.

Best Foods for Your Lungs
Filling your plate with a few of the best foods for your lungs can help decrease inflammation, improve airway function and protect against certain types of pulmonary disease. Here are a few of the best foods for your lungs and airways.

1. Apples
Not only can an apple a day keep the doctor away, but apples may also help promote better lung health as well. One study published in The European Respiratory Journal reported that apples could help slow declining lung function over a 10-year period, especially for former smokers.

The phytochemicals found in apples has also been shown to decrease oxidative stress and inflammation, which could potentially enhance pulmonary function.

2. Green Tea
Green tea is brimming with antioxidants and polyphenols that can be beneficial for lung function, including epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), which has been shown to help suppress lung cancer cell growth in in vitro studies. Green tea also contains theophylline, a powerful compound that acts as a bronchodilator to improve airway function and ease breathing difficulties.

What’s more, other research shows that regular consumption of green tea could be linked to a lower risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a group of progressive lung diseases that can cause shortness of breath, coughing and wheezing.

3. Leafy Greens
Leafy greens like kale, spinach and arugula are jam-packed with essential nutrients that can support lung health, including antioxidants, fiber, vitamins and minerals.

In fact, studies show that eating more leafy green vegetables may be linked to a lower risk of lung cancer, COPD and adult asthma.

4. Garlic
Garlic possesses powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that can help protect against oxidative stress within the lungs and throughout the body. What’s more, one study out of China even found that consuming raw garlic at least two times per week was associated with a lower risk of developing lung cancer over time.

5. Ginger
Ginger is a potent spice that has been extensively studied for its medicinal properties, especially when it comes to lung health. In one animal model, administering ginger to rats was effective at decreasing lung damage and protecting against inflammation and excess oxygen levels.

Another animal model showed that ginger extract prevented DNA and tissue damage in the lungs caused by alcohol.

6. Salmon
As one of the top lung cleansing foods, salmon is a great source of anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids. Some research suggests that these heart-healthy fats could help promote pulmonary blood flow and may be beneficial for certain respiratory conditions.

One study conducted by the Centre for Research in Environmental Epidemiology in Barcelona even found that consuming higher amounts of omega-3 fatty acids was associated with lower markers of inflammation in those with COPD.

7. Turmeric
Turmeric is one of the best foods for your lungs thanks to its content of curcumin, the chemical that provides turmeric with its vibrant color and impressive health benefits.

Preliminary research suggests that the anti-inflammatory properties of turmeric could aid in the treatment of several respiratory conditions, including asthma, COPD, acute respiratory distress syndrome, lung injury and pulmonary fibrosis.

8. Bananas
Rich in potassium, fiber and vitamin C, bananas are a powerhouse of nutrition and can be especially beneficial when it comes to lung health.

So why exactly is banana good for lungs? Studies show that the potassium found in bananas helps the lungs contract and expand, which can prevent breathing problems.

Other research has found that bananas could preserve lung function and may even be associated with a lower risk of wheezing caused by childhood asthma.

There was a time, not too far distant, when herbs and the plant kingdom played the majority role in medicine and wellness.

Thankfully this idea and the use of herbs seem to be coming back into fashion. Maybe it's because people are starting to realise modern medicine is not all its cracked up to be.

Yes it definitely has its place in acute and emergency situations but for long standing chronic disease it is definitely falling short.

I see this everyday with my patients who could be on over 30 tablets a day, most tablets are to allivate the symptoms that are caused by the medications they're taking 🤦‍♀️.

These tablets are de-humanising people, causing them to be tired and lethargic all the time, gain weight, lose their s*x drive, skin conditions, insomnia, completely numbing them from feeling emotions - they don't feel happy, they don't feel sad they just feel mehhhh.

We have an abundance of natural medicines around us which aren't promoted as no-one can make money from them. They are actually demonised as "weeds". I was listening to a podcast recently that made such a good point, plants that thrive around us in our own environment are usually the plants that are good for us as we survive together in the same conditions.

Plants that grow naturally in nature are organic, no nasty pesticides or fertilisers (have you seen how these are actually added to our crops by people in hazmat suits 😳 wtf).

Most of these "weeds" that grow around us are packed with nutrients and have so many medicinal properties.

And most importantly they are FREE!!!

I got a wee delivery with some new oils today, I am like a kid at Christmas.

I am especially excited to try Helichrysum, the most expensive oil I have invested in so far. This oil has been used for its extensive list of health benefits since ancient Greece. It contians active constituents that have not been identified in any other essential oil.

Helichrysum is a super skin healer, it speeds up recovery of any injury to the skin (burns, wounds, infection). It reduces the appearance of wrinkles, blemishes, acne, and scars and helps to promote a glowing, youthful complexion.
It promotes healthy liver function and helps to detoxify the body, cleansing the blood and promoting circulation. It has tons of other benefits, too many to mention.

It is a high vibrational (spiritual) oil 181 MHz. Uplifting to the subconscious, possessing the ability to cut through barriers of anger, allowing forgiveness and the ability to move forward in life.

Great deals like this don't come along often. The perfect kit to begin your essential oils journey for a more natural way of living. For more info on the Home Essentials Kit or how to use any of these oils, get in touch. 🌿💧

"If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration"
Nikola Tesla

The basic principle of sound healing is the concept of resonance (the vibratory frequency of an object.) The entire Universe is in a state of vibration. This includes human beings. Every organ, cell, bone, tissue and liquid of the body, and the electromagnetic fields which surround the body, has a healthy vibratory frequency. If we are not resonating with some part of ourselves or our surroundings, we become dissonant and therefore unhealthy, our naturally healthy frequency becomes a frequency that vibrates without harmony, creating illness.

Sound Healing is the application of Healing frequencies to the physical and subtle energy fields around the body.

Singing bowls can provoke states of deep relaxation where the healing of emotional pain becomes much easier. Releasing fear, grief, loneliness and depression, cleansing unwanted emotions and finding solutions to emotional issues with others, can all be achieved with sound healing. Many physical ailments, aches, pains, muscular and connective tissue problems, mobility problems, post-operative recovery, tinnitus and many more serious chronic diseases can all be cured or alleviated by sound therapy.

If you would like to book a sound healing session or would like more info, get in touch.

Ditch the chemicals.... Animals know best!

My friend sent me this video today, I thought it was brilliant. 😂 He got some oils from me and has started putting them to use. Safe and effective cleaning for your home and 100% natural.

Lemongrass oil
The main components of lemongrass oil are myrcene, citral, geraniol, nerol which makes it a potent anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-viral essential oil. It has a potent odor masking property and is one of the best essential oil for cleaning your home.

Not only that...
Aromatically, lemongrass helps to relieve stress, anxiety and depression.
Internally, it can be used to treat high blood pressure and digestive issues (only high quality, therapeutic grade oils should be taken internally using a vege capsule. Do not take for medical issues without prior assessment as some oils should not be taken with pharmaceutical medications).

Why Green Clean?
So, let’s discuss the importance of removing toxic chemicals from your life and consider some alternatives.
Toxic chemicals bombard us all day long. From the chemicals in our skincare, haircare, cleaning products, and the foods we eat, toxins surround us constantly. Carefully and conscientiously selecting cleaning and skincare products is a simple way to lessen the toxic load.
The body works hard to maintain balance or homeostasis. Even a healthy immune system has a hard time when overloaded by toxins it can’t handle. Chemical ingredients and artificial fragrances in our cleaning products vary in the type of health hazard they cause. Some cause immediate reactions (e.g., skin irritation, headache, watery eyes, coughing, sneezing, upset stomach) while others are associated with chronic, or long-term disease.
Other ingredients in cleaners may have low acute toxicity but contribute to long-term health effects, such as cancer or hormone disruption. Chemicals that are so-called “hormone disruptors” can interfere with the body’s natural chemical messages, either by blocking or mimicking the actions of hormones. Hormone disruptors zap the immune system. A weakened immune system leads to inflammation in the body. This just emphasizes the importance of removing toxins from as many products as possible.
I started eliminating toxins from my home not only for myself but for the health of my small children. Children are often the most vulnerable to chemicals because their organs and immune systems are still developing. Certain chemicals may interfere with the development of their neurological, endocrine, and immune systems, a problem that can be detrimental to even their adult lives.
Baking soda, white vinegar, castile soap, and essential oils are four basics for nontoxic household cleaning.
✅ BAKING SODA:
Benefit: Absorbs and eliminates odor.
Use as: Non-abrasive cleaner to clean countertops, sinks, and tubs.
How to: Sprinkle some baking soda on the carpet and vacuum after 15 minutes for a fresher look and feel. For scent, add a drop or two of lavender to the baking soda.
✅ WHITE VINEGAR:
Benefit: Contains natural antifungal and antibacterial properties that cut grease and dissolve mineral deposits.
Use as: Cleanser for a coffee maker, floors, refrigerator and so much more! (NOTE: Do not use on marble)
✅ CASTILE SOAP:
Benefit: Lifts dirt, cuts grease, and eliminates tough stains.
✅ CPTG ESSENTIAL OILS:
Benefits: To kill bacteria, fungi, and viruses. The citrus family of EOs additionally helps to break down grease and grime. We also benefit from that delicious aromatic punch they offer. Not all essential oils are pure, synthetic fragrance oils are toxic and even candles add harmful toxins into your home. Read on to learn more.

Have you ever questioned what is in the everyday products you use on your body, your children, and around your home?

I did!

For years I have always wondered what was contained in the items we use and take for granted. That chemical smell that would irritate my throat or eyes, something just told me there was a better, more natural way to clean myself and my home

This is what lead me to essential oils.
I genuinely am passionate about essential oils.
For the past two years I have been using them religiously for cleaning my house, deodorant, my facial cleansing routine, pain relief for my partner and family members, antibiotics, and also for simple things like improving my mood, helping to get the kids to sleep and so much more.

Essential oils have literally become ESSENTIAL to me as they enable me to reduce the toxic load in my home. So many products we use today are laden with chemicals that are harmful to our bodies, these chemicals can cause cancer, respiratory disorders, hormonal imbalance, skin conditions, and many more.

Essential oils offer a viable and affordable alternative that are not only all-natural but also so so powerful.

They are sourced directly from nature, found in the root, stems, bark, and leaves of plants found all across the world. They help to form the plant's own immunity and defence against microbes, bacteria, fungus, insects, and disease as well as being the fluid that regenerates and heals the plant. Our bodies are made of similar building blocks to plants, so when we use the oils, they go to work in our bodies in the same way.

As someone who has studied Aromatherapy for clinical health and skincare, I know oils can replace so many products out there and have amazing benefits for our bodies without any nasty side effects.

The oils I use are from Doterra, they are certified 100% pure therapeutic grade oils. This was one of the main reasons I chose them as through my research I discovered a lot of "essential oils" out there are synthetically made or are adulterated and have no therapeutic qualities at all.

If you would like anymore information on the oils and their benefits, how to buy oils or would like any products made for your specific needs get in touch and I will be more than happy to help.
