✨ RETREAT VIBES ✨ 
We’ve officially sold out… and our retreat is underway at the absolutely divine vineyard accommodation in Napier (huge thanks to them for their generous support, utterly stunning accommodation 🙌).

We’ve gathered an amazing group of humans—from all walks, stages, and ages of life—to dive deep into:
 🧬 The Metabolic Approach to Cancer
🔥 Radical Remission Principles  🌿 Evidence-based complementary therapies 🧠 The microbiome + treatment outcomes 🎨 Emotional healing, creative arts & transforming grief 🧘🏽‍♀️ The science of meditation & the power of the mind 🥦 Nutrition, stress, and reclaiming control 💬 Demystifying death (yes, we’re going there)
…and so much more.

These workbooks are bursting with practical tools and juicy content to help each participant feel more empowered, more informed, and more supported on their journey.

✨ Forever grateful to be part of something this special—and to the for subsidising costs and making it possible for more people to access this kind of care.

🌟 Why Keeping a Food Diary is a Game-Changer for Ulcerative Colitis 🌟

When you’re dealing with UC, your gut can feel like a total mystery.
That’s why food diaries are SO helpful — they help us crack the code 🔍.

👨‍⚕️ One of my amazing clients with UC completed a food diary, and after starting an elimination diet (which is basically removing common trigger foods and then slowly reintroducing them one at a time), we figured out his gut troublemakers: citrus, cashews and cauliflower! 🚫🥦🍊

👩‍⚕️ Another client (rockstar female UC warrior!) is doing the same and here’s what she’s discovered:
⚡ Avocado = hayfever reaction
⚡ Spinach = major tooting (no shame 😂)
⚡ Orange kumara = swollen eyes (ouch!)

The wins?
➕ Red kumara was totally fine.
➕ Dark chocolate was a SUCCESS (and honestly, that’s the best news of all! 🍫✨)

🧡 Bottom line: Your gut is unique.
Without a food diary and elimination trial, these hidden reactions stay a mystery — but now we can make a plan that’s personalized and powerful.

If you’re struggling with gut issues, a simple food diary might be your first step to real relief! 💬👣

BANABA – Nature’s Hidden Gem 🌿
On the weekend, Dad, Uncle Pete, and Andre went over to our neighbour Eddie’s property – and it honestly blew my mind. Eddie’s garden is a living apothecary – bursting with limes, apples, sapote, bananas… even the “miracle berry” that makes sour things taste sweet!
But the one that stopped me in my tracks? 
BANABA (Lagerstroemia speciosa) 🍃

This stunning plant has been used in traditional medicine for years to help manage blood sugar – and now research is backing it up. Its active compound, corosolic acid, has been shown to:
✔️ Lower blood glucose within 60 minutes ✔️ Support insulin sensitivity ✔️ Improve glucose uptake into cells ✔️ Support lipid metabolism ✔️ Have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits

Corosolic acid + ellagitannins = a powerful combo for supporting metabolic health naturally. 🙌

There isn’t loads of research yet – but what’s out there is enough to have me racing home with a cutting to grow my own and start making tea!
Have you heard of Banaba before? Would love to know if anyone’s used it!

I asked Dean Wallace what have been the biggest change makers after his cancer diagnosis:
“After being diagnosed with stage four cancer in July 2023 was devastating. I felt confused and scared, my confidence was shattered.
I wanted more control on the outcome. I wasn’t going down without a fight. So learning more about diet, nutrition and supplements and the difference they can make was important. This combined with regular exercise with a PT and bootcamp has been life changing”.

What’s been the toughest?
“Biggest challenges were coming to terms with the idea that my life was given an expiry date… sooner than I had expected.
Also life became very medical focused, bouncing from one appointment to another with the GP, oncology, treatments, psychologist, surgery, scans, dietitian.This was a huge change for me as I have never really had any health issues.
Getting used to a new diet, taking regular meds and supplements was difficult at first but became easier with time. I don’t even think about it now. It’s normal”.

What helped you get over the line and into action?
“Seeing the positive changes in my health and gut has helped me feel stronger and more in control.
Results of CT / MRI scans showing that we are holding my cancer at bay has been a huge boost. Just keep going as I am”.

When you have been feeling low, what has helped make the difference and kept you going?
“My family.
I have also for the first time in life been to regular counselling sessions with a psychologist who is incredibly understanding of my situation as is a good mix of being very caring & saying it like it is.
Reminding myself that with good nutrition, supplements and exercise along with my monthly treatments, I do have some control”.
Thank you for sharing Dean, you my man are a legend 🫶🏽❤️

Purple potatoes may be considered a delicacy in some European countries, originally from Peru, these babies we cook, cool, and heat again before eating to help make the starch more insoluble and help feed our microbiome more (think “pre-biotic”).

The colour is largely due to the high concentration of anthocyanins and flavonoids, the same group of antioxidants that give grapes and wine their colour… roughly 4 times the antioxidants as regular potatoes.

These flavonoids can reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases, cancer, high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia, and diabetes.. oh and liver function and weight loss… eye health… umm, literally everything!

Dre and I try and aim for a few serves a day. An easy way is buying it in powder form and adding to your smoothie.

Do you get any of these into your daily diet?

No , no , no . F**k .

💔

You are crying because tears are the language of the soul and you love hard and deeply and because she was a gift.

Sandra and I worked tirelessly for years and I know we smashed the ceiling off her “time on earth” diagnosis her oncologist gave her… actually, we knocked that s**t into the next galaxy. We were never unrealistic, but gave it everything and trialled protocols, tested, adjusted, celebrated the wins together, cried together, pivoted, celebrated … grieved.

She was someone I could have only dreamed of being like in lifetimes of trying, courage, tenacity, grace and resilience.
Even when she was in a wheelchair, her tumour pressing on the spinal cord she offered yoga and meditation for those that needed it. She was going to join us to teach mediation and yoga at the last

And she has showed us the way to live and to die.

“ she is needed somewhere else “

As the veils open between the two worlds I wish her now an easy journey into the light.

My girlfriend Susie shares this heavy heart and sent me some of this message… The mahi we do is overwhelming but it is also our ikigai / reason for being.

We may all benefit at becoming comfortable talking about death and dying. It is what makes living the gift. However hard, overwhelming or difficult at times.

My love and thoughts go to her family and friends. If you have ever had a Sandra in your life, you are TRULY fu***ng blessed.

Namaste MTHFRS 🕉️

Happy birthday my Gemini ♊️ ❤️

✨ Sharing life with you is never boring 😜

🥵 The skin also acts as an excretory organ; it’s estimated that 3-4 million eccrine (your main sweat bands) collectively weighing about the same as one kidney – 100g!!!!!! are distributed over almost the entire human body surface, and:

🥵 An individual can perspire as much as several litres per hour and approximately 10 litres per day.

🥵 Water-soluble exogenous and endogenous toxic/bioactive substances, such as metals including arsenic, cadmium, lead, mercury, nickel, copper, pharmaceutical drugs, co***ne and he**in, BPA, cytokines, and steroids can be eliminated in the sweat.

🥵 Sweat has been analysed for approximately 120 various compounds!!!! Including toxic elements, and found that many toxic elements appeared to be preferentially excreted through sweat.

🥵 Some xenobiotics that are rarely excreted in the urine without being metabolised, but can be excreted in the sweat e.g. excess nicotinamide cannot be eliminated through urine because of its reabsorption by the renal tubules, but it can be effectively excreted by the sweat gland… so those of you out there in the longevity space make sure you are sweating if you use nicotinamide as a supplement. Time to sweat!!!

✨ ♾ Aratika Cancer Trust Retreat... I’ll aptly re-name “Transformational retreat”... ✨ ♾

💫 A space to talk, feel safe to just BE, share, cry, REST, be nourished, learn skills, gain VALUABLE TOOLS, laugh and PLAY... and HEAPS more 🌸

🍃 These two incredible humans are part of the Aratika Cancer Trust. This week we have had the deepest honour and privilege of holding space for a group of people HEALING with and from cancer and their family and friends.

🌺 This week I’ve learnt SO much about psychology from Liz and Joanna, how to manage people who say stupid s**t like “oh but you look so well!”, how to leave people behind that don’t fill up your cup and make you feel GOOD about yourself and who drain your PRECIOUS energy.

🌿 How to say YES to yourself.

⭐️ We talked about grief and strategies to implement NOW, how to manage, food, microbiome, meds and therapies a little, cannabis, sleep, literally EVERYTHING was on the table.

☀️ We talked about “Radical Remission” and what can we practically start to do when we leave the safety of Taupo.

🥰 Being in a group of people ALL going through a similar experience isnt something easily created at home. I’m so grateful for you all, and am excited there is fresh hope in each and every one of you.

So. If you would like to join us, we have two more this year... swipe for details 👉🏽

Or visit for details.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Namaste MOFOS!
