22.01.2022 So this is 49. Wow what a ride. Some really interesting things have come up for me in the lead up to today. I have had a lot of flash backs to my 30th birthday. My doctor found a lump in my throat just a few days earlier. Instead of planning how I was going to manage my hangover after the big night out, I was thinking about what would happen to my kids if it turned out to be the big C. Fast forward 19 years and how incredibly lucky am I to have raised my babies, married ...the most beautiful human, found soul enriching work and deepened my connection to my family and dear friends. I wonder if I would have had this life if I didnt have cancer. I wonder why I have been blessed to live all these years when so many beautiful people have left this world so prematurely. I dont know why I am still here but I do know for me the trees are greener, the stars are brighter and my heart is so full of gratitude for all I have. My birthday wish is for everyone, everywhere to see the world through my rose coloured glasses. Much, much love to all #livingwithcancer #gratitude #soulliving #birthdaywishes See more

21.01.2022 Sleeping on a silk pillowcase is great for taming bedhead, helps your skin to retain moisture and being a natural product reduces exposure from chemicles and is also hypoallergenic. If you are thinking about investing in this luxurious item I would love you to consider Peace Silk. This little guy used to be a silkworm. He completed his natural life cycle because his silk cacoon was collected after he emerged from it, this is the method used to create peace silk opposed to traditional methods which include boiling the intact cocoons. I ordered mine from nourishedlife.com.au #peacesilk #ahimsa #silkpillowcase #nurturenature #bedtimebeauty

20.01.2022 The Autumn equinox marks the beginning of the shorter days of vata season. This is mother natures cue for us to slow down and seek warmth, nourishment, loving relationships, stability, routine and groundedness. #vataseason #autumnequinox #ayurveda #seasonalwellness

20.01.2022 Ayurveda teaches that we are intimately connected to nature and more affected by her cycles than we realise. Summer is the season of Pitta in Ayurveda. Pitta is represented by the element of fire. In Ayurveda we understand that like increases like and if you think about it we all know those fiery types who get hot under the collar when the weather warms up. When Pitta is aggravated in the body it can lead to imbalances such as aggressive, demanding behaviour or it may p...resent as skin problems, ulcers, acid reflux, hypertension, inflammation and insomnia to name a few. With some seasonal adjustments Pitta season can be a very productive time for us; just as it is in nature. As the days get longer and warmer, plants start producing an abundance of fruits and vegetables. Like plants our endurance peaks in summer, this is the time to get up with the sun to make the most of the daylight hours. You will have the stamina to hike or take long walks in nature and the drive to set and accomplish goals. Keep following for tips to keep cool through the warmer months. #ayurveda #seasonalwellness #summervibes

18.01.2022 To nurture nature is to nurture us. As is the human body, so is the cosmic body. As is the human mind, so is the cosmic mind. As is the microcosm, so is the macrocosm. As is the atom, so is the universe The Upanishads... #earthhour #nurturenature

17.01.2022 Just purchased this beautiful new sunflower mattress from Natural Beds NZ. Made with renewable resourses, contains no nasties and is anti bacterial and anallergic. Good for us and the planet - The practice of Ahimsa.

17.01.2022 Mother nature knows what our bodies need and produces food that is suitable for the local climate and season, so it makes sense to eat local produce, it also tastes better and is good for the environment. This summer eat plenty of fresh, locally grown fruit and vegetables. If you eat flesh protein fish and lean meats are a good choice. If you can tolerate dairy it can be eaten in moderation. Have a good breakfast that will keep you satisfied till lunchtime, rolled barley i...s an excellent grain for this time of year. Make lunch the largest meal of the day, a hearty salad with some protein and grain is a perfect choice. Eat a smaller plant based meal before the sun sets to support optimal digestion. Our digestive fire is strong during the hotter months so it is best to reduce intake of heating spices including chilli, mustard and cayenne and avoid salty, greasy, overly cooked, excessively rich foods. As always this is general advice, please see an Ayurvedic practitioner for a plan to meet your individual needs. #ayurvedafood #seasonaleating See more
