23.01.2022 Post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). It can rule someone's world, or you might even realise you have it, and others have no idea or care for what it is. I had previously come across PTSD through others such as an army service man, someone being involved in an accident, traumatic births and the loss of a loved one. But what I didnt understand until it affected me, was the depths that can it take a hold of you and the span across it can affect you and those around you....Continue reading

20.01.2022 Hi, Im Carissa! I left behind my own health blocks surrounding fertility and complications of a connective tissue disorder because I wanted better, and more from my life. I saw and lived how mainstream medicine didn’t have all the answers to help me fall pregnant or live a life diagnosed with a genetic disorder. ... Although it appeared I was already living healthy, I wanted to know more, I knew something had to change if I wanted change. I started eating food as medicine rather than by habit or for taste, and turned to some odd formulas, soups and concoctions for extra help. I also then saw after having my children, how just eating and living healthy wasn’t serving my children who suffered from low immunity and hyperactivity. There was more needed to be able to offer more to my children. I’ve since obtained my Bachelor of Health Science in a clinical environment to practise as Naturopath because I want to help others find, and live their best life I am a mum, an intuitive empath with a type-A personality who is passionate about : the root cause of illness, how the whole body is functioning, and finding the body’s ability to heal itself. I have a system, with a long-term approach, that looks at the research as well as the drivers of your illness whilst: healing your gut, calming your mind, getting rid of toxins, reducing inflammation, balancing hormones and improving your immunity. Because you also deserve better and do have options, to leave your own health blocks behind. I can show you how https://www.carissamcallister.com.au/naturopathy-services
19.01.2022 Sunday breakfast! Omg yum! How do you beat the sugar cravings you know are coming later in the day? PROTEIN - mushrooms, egg, chickpeas. How do you feed your colony of good bacteria in your gut to help balance out the bad bacteria that causes us bloating, skin conditions and a busy mind? PREBIOTICS - garlic, asparagus and onion.... How do you have an abundance and variety of vitamins and minerals everyday? LOTS OF VEGETABLES - capsicum, carrot, rocket, spinach, asparagus, mushroom, celery. How do you make breakfast your medicine? LIKE THIS - and while you are at it, cook enough for a few days so its ready to go for the next week's busy mornings. How do you create a change in your body?

15.01.2022 Bbq burgers on a plate. (No buns required.) Yum! Yum! The family was a bit confused not see buns, but loved all the flavours like a burger and agreed the buns werent needed. The juices, egg and cheese all ran together just like they should. Being a coeliac myself, and my boys being gluten free with the coeliac gene, takes a lot of the fun out of eating out. Not being able to order what you feel like everyone else, having the one or two options to choose from (and sometimes no...thing at all) and then the awkard conversations when you order, or with the kitchen and even with those in your company about how a speck of gluten triggers your autoimmune disease and can make the lining in your digestive tract diminish so you cannot abosorb the vital nutrients to you survive and thrive ... and yes it is actually important. It can be not fun at all and ... exhausting. So pretty much everything we end up eating comes from my kitchen. The upside is.. we know what is put into everything we put in our mouth, and my boys love to help and they learn about food as being our fuel as we go. These were homemade turkey mince burgers put into the food processor with canneloni beans, bean sprouts, teriyaki sauce, herbs, egg and a crust of gluten free bread. Also on the plate was rocket, spinach, a colesaw mix, grated beetroot, saurkraut, egg, goats cheese for the adults and cheddar for the boys, avocado, relish and mayo. www.carissamcallister.com.au
15.01.2022 Naturopathy has an important role in our contemporary health care system by using an individualised approach to guide principles of disease prevention, treatment of the whole person, educating patients on beneficial health practises as well as the initiative and responsibility for one's own health. A Naturopath uses a patient centered approach incorporating biomedical science, traditional and research knowledge to ensure effective and safe prescribing of nutritional therapie...s and western herbal medicine. I am a Bribie Island local, degree qualified Naturopath with a Bachelor of Health Science (Naturopathy) now taking on new clients, with appointments at Bellara inside Bribie Simply Healthy 13/19 Benabow Avenue. www.carissamcallister.com.au

13.01.2022 Where do you get your lettuce or leafy greens from? I tottle off into the backyard with my scissors twice a week and come back with a colander of fresh, yummy mixed greens. I heard you then...I dont have time...I cant keep anything alive...Ive always wanted to...... Ive never been great at keeping things alive. But these are from only four plants in 2 kmart pots that my 7 year old has the unofficial job of watering. He doesnt mind watering them and I can see the pride on his face for his effort when he sets off to water them a couple of times a week. (Even though he still tears our hair out trying to unravel and ravel the hose everytime...another skill we are currently always working on.) And of course he knows technology time isnt allowed until youve done what you need to do for the day. The plants cost me $6 from bunnings and save me approximately $6 a week. Best of all they are fresh, in season and organic!! Ready to provide your body with nutrients and not to accumulate any unnecessary toxins we all are exposed to with modern day living. Add lettuce daily to your sandwiches, wraps, salads and juices. The large leaves are also a wrap themself to place your protein and additional salad into! Or one of our favourites is San Choy Bau made with turkey mince! www.carissamcallister.com.au
13.01.2022 Another bonus package is on its way to one of my couples in my Fertility Street Program.

Which is why I created my couples Fertility Street Program. I can help you create new possibilities, with natural medicine and address your whole health, to help you fulfill your dreams of family.

07.01.2022 I hate the taste of sauerkraut! My boys also hate sauerkraut!! But we all still eat sauerkraut...... Why? Sauerkraut a fermented food and a probiotic. Easy to add to a meal once a day and is one of the economic ways to increase the beneficial bacteria instead of purhasing probiotics. If your whole family needs probiotics this can add up to be quite expensive. One organic jar is around $10 and can last a month. Its also easy to make yourself for next to nothing. Sauerkraut is also rich in potassium and vitamins A, C and K. I have a small tablespoon a day and my boys have small teaspoon added to one of our meals, once a day and you can hardly notice its there. If you would like to improve yours and your families digestion, boost your immunity, not have to buy probiotics, feel fuller for longer and improve your gut-brain axis...you might need to sauerkraut daily too! www.carissamcallister.com.au
07.01.2022 Looking at where you are now and knowing where you want to be, is important to achieve your goals. Asking for help, from the right places, is also important to achieve your goals. Surrounding yourself with people who respect and appreciate where you want to be, is imortant to achieve your goals.... Who is in your cheer squad? www.carissamcallister.com.au
07.01.2022 Today I did nothing! I brushed my teeth and drove the kids to school, one load of washing...but all in all I did nothing. Why? Why not? It's not in my nature and it is really hard for me to do nothing. But today, I needed it.... I sat with the battle in my body of my TPD, I walked on my dirty floors, I minded my past trauma that sits in my mind. I looked at my piled washing to be put away, I dreamt about where I want to be in the next 12 months, I rested my muscles which work way too hard for me to just be upright at times...and I did nothing. Oprah once said " A queen is not afraid to fail. Failure is another stepping stone to greatness". You will fail with your health at some point. Some people will help you, others will hinder you. You'll make mistakes like going through the drive through one more time, having that block of chocolate, relying on too many pharmaceuticals or downing that whole bottle of wine. You'll stuff up all the time in big and little ways. Accept it, don't fear it and you won't have the surprise or disappointment that follows. There is something you can do, you can plan for it and get back up again. You won't lose your health, until your time is up....either you win, or you will learn. Where are you now and where would you like to be in 12 months time? Reach out to me if you would like some holistic support and natural medicine. www.carissamcallister.com.au
06.01.2022 "Instead of wondering when your next vacation is, maybe you should set up a life you don’t need to escape from."
06.01.2022 Have you ... named your own goals? Set out your intentions? Looked deep with yourself to see your own needs?... Have you ... visualised what achieving your goals would bring to you? Looked around you to identify your barriers? Asked for help from who you need for support?
06.01.2022 An easy concept to do daily of Food as Medicine is making the food you already eat...healthier. Nutritional yeast is an easy add to the top of cooked dishes and salads...its also easily hidden so the kids wont even know its there. Why? Nutritional yeast a source of Vitamin B. So if you arent getting enough meat or dark leafy greens and you dont wont to buy supplements, nutritional yeast is an easy daily add and is found in your health food store and supermarket. Its also vega...n. This was my Spaghetti Bolognese. Made with turkey mince for its mood enhancing properties from the amino acid tryptothan and more B vitamins. Loaded with hidden grated vegetables and a 4 bean mix for fibre to keep the good gut bacteria thriving and again more B vitamins. B vitamins are water soluble, so therefore stores are lost daily and daily supply is essential for: cell health growth of red blood cells energy levels good eyesight healthy brain function good digestion healthy appetite proper nerve function hormones and cholesterol production cardiovascular health muscle tone Check out more on nutritional yeast here: https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/nutritional-yeast www.carissamcallister.com.au
