16.01.2022 Rhythms// Family// Life// Morning Verse// Memories// Nurture// Warmth// Soul// Waldorf This is a simple, yet such a warm and beautiful morning verse you can use as apart of your morning routine with your family. It is a traditional Waldorf morning verse ... My children and I say this when we are all up and greet each other as a family in the morning. Routines, Rhythms, Repetitions all bring a sense of safety and security to a child. They bring a sense of balance to their little lives when sometimes us as mamas are not the best version of ourselves or our children are having a challenge or unwell. The husstle and bustle of our daily life is not an environment that is good for a child. This is why we need to bring connection, presence and a nurturing environment back to what our children thrive on and deserve. We light a candle at the start of our verse and then my children take it in turns each time to blow the candle out. Then my children catch the 'dragons' ( the smoke from the candles) which brings a bit of magic back into their little life. Try it, I promise your little ones face will light up and so will yours Would love to know some of your own family Rhythms, routines or repetitions. Please share below with our Grow to Nurture village. Xx

11.01.2022 Gut health// Diversity//Microbiome// Healthy// Simple// Omega 3// Rainbow Having a healthy Gut is an ongoing journey. Progression over perfection Eating a large variety of different foods assists in the diversity of your microbiome. ... However, on the flip side if we don't eat the right foods and exposed to other things, all our hard work of supporting our gut can get disrupted. Let me share with you what I have learnt from my reading and watching. Things that deplete the diversity of our microbiome are: Surprisingly enough our microbiome is given to us by our own mother, when we were a fetus in the womb. When we are pregnant it is imperative that we have a wide variety of healthy foods and not be exposed to some of the following things I'm about to list. Some contraceptive methods, antidepressants and antibiotics can all deplete the diversity of our microbiome. Of course all of these things have there important place. However it is important to understand where our microbiome can be affected. The way in which we are born can impact our diversity in our microbiome. Vaginal birth through the birthing canal, a baby can get exposed to an amazing array of microbes compared to a c-section in which the procedure is very much sterile. Again sometimes a c-section is absolutely warranted. The way in which we are fed breastmilk vs formula as a baby. Breastmilk and the golden liquid colostrum is full of amazing microbes for baby in compasrison to formula. Again you might have not at the right support on your breastfeeding journey or chose not to breastfeed which is absolutely fine. It's important to understand this information, to provide support to a baby's gut in another way. SUGAR (refined) Sugar actually DEPLETES the good bacteria in our gut. Sugar supports the growth of pathogenic bugs. Breakfast cereals, snack foods, processed goods can all be loaded with sugar. Preservatives and additives Can inhibit the growth of bacteria in particular nitrates and sulphates. Be aware of these numbers: 200-228 249-252 280-283 Artificial sweetners again can deplete our diversity of our microbiome. Look out for low in fat, sugar free, natural sweetners.

09.01.2022 Holistic// Parenting// Nurturing// Life elements// Simple// Happiness// Healthy Becoming a mum, really made me look at the type of health professional I was. I was always drawn towards the holistic view and it was a term that I came accross whilst studying my many years at university (5 years).... Sadly however I found that the reality of this term 'holistic' is in fact not reality. The human being is a complex creature and one that simply is not about bandaging up what you can physically see that is wrong. The WHOLE human being is connected as one. This is why many of us find a problem reappearing not just once but for some on a daily occurance. This is why I have chosen to practice as a holistic health professional and look at all my clients, mamas and children as their unique self and as a WHOLE human being that works as one. Food and nutrition Toxic free living Nurturing Lifestyle Natural therapies All these elements I incorporate into my holisic approach to a family that may present to me with a challenge of their child as: -behavioural issues -sleep concerns -fussy eating Anything......... Yes I'll talk about the 'surface' issue but I also work with the WHOLE child, mama and family unit looking at what is going on underneath the surface. Enabling it to not resurface and become more self aware and present in our childrens life. This is my deep passion in my life and one that I want to leave behind as a legacy to my children of who I am not only as a health professional but my unique self doing the greater good for humanity and our future leaders of this World.

01.01.2022 Green Living// Non-Toxic// Cleaning// Drying// Child Safe// Simple// Doterra There are so many nasties in cleaning products that I decided to switch to a safer option for my children when I became a mum. Most cleaning agents you find on the shelves of supermarkets are packed with agents that have been linked to some cancers and lowers our diversity of our microbiome, thus leading to gut issues in our children and ourselves. ... I switched to soapberries 3 years ago now and could not be happier. Soapberries are: Waste free Vegan Organic Compstable Effective 100% natural Raw Hypoallergenic Use x5 berries in a gauze bag for up to 4-5 washloads. I also use wool dryer balls: 100% pure Australian wool Reduces need for ironing Decreases drying time Reduces static Softens fabrics Chemical free Waste free Pair with essential oils to have beautifully smelling clothes that are from a natural and non-toxic source. Clean and lovely smelling clothes and good for your health and environment. Can't go wrong

01.01.2022 Children// Life// World// Inner work// Parents role// Love vs Hate// Peace vs Conflict How would you describe your child? Would you always describe them the same? ... These 2 questions I believe are very important in our parenting journey. I'd love to share with you a little story about my journey as a mum to my first born child. The minute he was born, he challenged me. He had silent reflux and was medicated, could not find the underlying cause. He had a lip and tongue tie and NEVER slept. He was on the go at a very early age and ready for life and what it had to offer. Now ar the age of 4, he is very strong willed, free spirited child that remains to have that zest for life. He is very energetic- he climbs anything, very expressive, kind hearted and independent. I always have found him a challenge, hard work, exhausting and difficult. UNTIL.... My own self journey started and instead of blaming my child for being difficult, challenging, exhausting and hard work, I have now made the realisation that it was never my child at all. IT WAS ME. MY INNER TURMOIL. THE BAGGAGE I HAVE KEPT THAT WAS LIMITING MY AUTHENTIC SELF. When our inner soul is out of balance we see the World and our children in a very different way to who they actually are. THIS I BELIEVE IS THE CHALLENGE OF PARENTING. It is our role and our responsibility to work on ourself first. When we are our best in our inner Soul, we then describe our children as their authentic self So next time you find yourself describing your child harshly, challenging, exhausting what ever that be ASK YOURSELF WHAT IS OUT OF BALANCE FOR YOU CURRENTLY??? Work on yourself and you will see the magical shift that occurs. Again I send all you mamas so much compassion and love for our 24 hour work with our children and no matter what age they are
