Women’s Day talk, Heritage Manor

As a celebration of Women’s Day I presented a seminar entitled “From Illness to Wellness”.

First the 100 or so ladies sat down to a lively breakfast together and then we went through to the presentation area.

We talked through the five “stepping stones” on the wellness journey. The importance of listening to the whispers of your body before it screams at you. We ended with information on the important nutritional needs of our nervous system.

After some interesting questions we ended the session with everyone being offered a gift of my Happy Herbal Tea.

I was delighted to be able to address such a spirited group of ladies on a special day.

Despite recognizing the gut as our "second brain," we often mistreat it in ways we would never consider for our actual brain. This paradoxical behaviour can be a significant, yet underappreciated, source of stress - the proverbial "last straw" that overwhelms our ability to cope. However, by providing proper support for the digestive system, many of the stressors associated with the end of the year can be alleviated. While the stress itself may persist, a healthier gut can reduce its toll on the body.
The stress doesn't just come from eating different foods - it also arises from being around family you haven't seen in a long time, and spending money on entertainment and shopping. This can be taxing on an already exhausted nervous system, depleting rather than recharging your nervous energy. The rhythmic interaction between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems is crucial for living life to the fullest. When this rhythm is disrupted, it may be one reason why people sometimes feel more drained than energized after a holiday.
Before the holidays arrive, make sure you have enough products to support your nervous system and promote healthy digestion, for both yourself and your loved ones.

A visit to Sue Fry on their farm Finjveld is always a highlight. It invariably also means work!! Yesterday's visit yielded armsful of lavender, rosemary, comfrey and artichoke leaves. These will eventually become herbal tinctures, for Dr Sanien's practice at Herbs, Health & Healing in Somerset West.
After stripping the leaves and flowers, it is steeped in alcohol for a minimum of 3 months.

On Saturday, October 19, Herbs, Health & Healing hosted the Level 2 course on Bach Flower Remedies, presented by Dr Sanien de Beer.
Here are some of the feedback from the students:
- I absolutely loved the Level 2 course. It deepened my understanding and appreciation of the Bach Remedies and their healing powers. It's a must if you have done Level 1.
- For those of you who have done Level 1 and are considering doing Level 2 - do it! One goes so much deeper and everything gets so much clearer in Level 2.

"Sharing my knowledge and experience gives me energy. Over the past weekend, I was privileged to present a Level 1 course in Bach Flower Remedies to 4 attendees. At the end of the weekend, they were equipped with a better understanding of the principles of Bach Remedies. Hopefully, they will be inspired to apply the knowledge in their lives and those of their loved ones. " Dr Sanien de Beer

Feedback from a patient:
"I had a wonderful, but exerting day yesterday, and needed a pep-up after the adrenaline-filled day. Sometimes unhealthy feels so good - and "good" came in the form of a chicken pie and coke. Unfortunately, this led to severe heartburn - not a great feeling at all. The liver tonic, formulated by Dr Sanien de Beer, and available at Herbs, Health & Healing came to the rescue. I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly the heartburn disappeared and I was ready for action again."
