25.01.2022 LAURA LOVES ASHWAGANDHA Ashwaganda (also known as withania) is an adaptogen - meaning it helps you adapt to the situation you are in, keeps you more balanced throughout the day and better equipped to handle what life throws at you.... I have been taking Ashwagandha powder for a few years now as part of my daily routine. For me it works best to have in the morning and I mix it with my kefir, but there are no hard and fast rules as to when to take it, it depends on your individual needs. I began taking Ashwagandha to help with energy levels and balance out any feelings of anxiety that may pop up during the day. I find it also helps with my cognitive function. From time to time I like to have a break from taking it, usually about a week or 2. I usually let my intuition and body guide me. Start with 1/4 teaspoon and work your way up to 1/2 teaspoon daily mixed in your drink of choice smoothies, tea/coffee or even add to raw desserts and baked goods. Ask me any questions about Ashwagandha in the comments, come in-store or visit our website for more info. We choose to stock @teelixir Ashwagandha Root Laura. x See more

24.01.2022 Laura’s Staff Pick: I love my salt lamps I have several in my home! When they are not switched on, it just doesn’t seem right. Not only do they give off a warm ambient glow, they are also known to have therapeutic benefits. Salt lamps release negative ions into the room. Negative ions are abundant in certain environments such as the beach, waterfalls and mountains. When we surround ourselves with negative ions we can elevate our mood, boost our energy and improve the air quality. Visit Laura in-store today til 5pm and Mel on Sat 10am4pm

16.01.2022 What makes a bath more relaxing and therapeutic? Add some magnesium. Why? To relax your muscles and relax your mindAssist the body to flush out toxinsEase joint pain, headaches, muscle soreness and cramps.... You might have noticed there are different options at your local health store that look the same but have fairly different price tags... One option is Magnesium Chloride and the other is Epsom Salts (Magnesium Sulphate). While both have therapeutic benefits, magnesium chloride flakes are more powerful and better absorbed into the body Hot TipAlways make sure you are well hydrated before and after a Magnesium salt bath, so drink up your water or herbal tea and relax!

14.01.2022 Customer review So pleased with my recent purchase of your lovely shampoo and conditioner bars, thank you! My kids hate washing their hair but are happier to do it with a bar rather than liquid. The two-in-one means no having to repeat the process and no plastic packaging is an awesome bonus! Thanks again, will definitely be sticking with these in future" Lisa, Bendigo. VIC... Have you made any swaps during Plastic Free July? See more

08.01.2022 NEW BLOCK DOCKS! Goodbye traditional soap storage with its mushy soap and grimy scum! Spend less time cleaning ... These are so cool. I’ve been using a couple of them at home for a few months and have loved them so much I wanted to bring them to you too. So what are they? A thoughtfully designed vertical soap and shampoo bar holder that allows the bar to drain almost instantly after use and air flow to reach all around the bar allowing your soap to dry quickly. This means your bars last longer, are easier to handle and you get better value for the money spent on every bar you buy. If you've been thinking about reducing your plastic consumption, the Block Dock soap holder makes it easier than ever to make the switch Block Docks are in-store and online now. Available in white, black, silver and rose gold. See more

08.01.2022 QUESTION Do I take a probiotic while I am taking antibiotics? This is a question we get a lot in the store.... There are certain strains that are beneficial to take while you are taking antibiotics to help reduce side effects from the antibiotics in particular Saccharomyces boulardii. This can help reduce some of the side effects of the antibiotics and protect the gut lining. High strength multistrain probiotics are best taken as soon as you have finished the course of antibiotics. If you choose to take a multistrain at the same time as the antibiotics, make sure it is taken at least 2 hours away from the antibiotics. Have you got a question about nutrition or natural health? Get in touch and we may choose your question in the next Q and A post See more

08.01.2022 Attention Creatives, entrepreneurs, students, athletes or anyone wanting to get an edge, boost their brain power, improve focus and memory... Have you heard of the term ‘Nootropics’?... Nootropics, also known as smart drugs, are substances that can be taken to enhance brain function Most nootropics on the market are made from synthetic ingredients which of course we wouldn’t advocate A better, safer option is a natural nootropic such as Lion’s Mane mushroom powder used for thousands of years throughout Asia. Mixes well in your coffee, tea or smoothie. Tap to shop online now or chat more in store Open Tue to Fri 9.30am-5pm + Sat 10am-4pm. @ Kyneton, Victoria See more

08.01.2022 BREAKFAST INSPO! This Nutty Porridge is my go-to breaky dish at the moment, it’s quick, nutritious and super tasty! Created by Nutritionist Megan Crockart - Balancing Nutrition ... INGREDIENTS 1 handful pecans 1 handful walnuts 2 tbsp ground flax seeds 1 tsp ground cinnamon 1 pinch nutmeg 1 pinch ground ginger 1 tbsp almond or macadamia butter 1 banana, mashed 3 eggs cup coconut milk 1 handful of your favourite berries Extra cinnamon to garnish Note: Melrose Health is my choice for nut butters, they are the best! METHOD 1. Place the nuts, flax seeds and spices in a food processor and process until still coarse. 2. In a bowl, combine the eggs and coconut milk with a whisk until it thickens a bit. Add the mashed banana and nut butter to the egg mixture and combine well. 3. Pour the nut mixture in the egg mixture and combine again. 4. Pour in a saucepan over a low heat to heat the mixture. Stir often and remove from heat as soon as it’s warm. 5. Serve in a bowl, topped with the berries and extra cinnamon to garnish. Extra cold coconut milk on top is also excellent to contrast with the hot nut mixture. See more

07.01.2022 I bought a set of scales today. Hadn't weighed myself for about 4 years I'd say. After all, your jeans soon tell you one way or another, right? Kinda wanted to know where I was at though. Merely an information gathering thing, so now I can set a target. How often do you weigh yourself, if at all? And, does the number that you see determine how you feel about yourself that day or is it simply information? Just curious...
