I sit down to talk once again with hypnotherapist Zoë Clews. This time we focus on anxiety and depression which is Zoë’s speciality.

More and more people are presenting …
How to transform your coffee and avoid the jitters
I do love my daily cupaccino. In fact it’s one of the things I most look forward to in my day ( the simple pleasures and all that ). However I have a very up and down relationship with the caffeine in coffee. The amount of caffeine in coffee is much higher than in tea The caffeine in tea, green …
How to stay healthy for free (video)
You’ve probably heard the term biohacking and are wondering what it is exactly? Instagram is chock full of biohackers who are dedicated to a super healthy lifestyle which often entails quite expensive treatments and products.

My favourite affordable skin products
In a perfect world, we would all have amazing skin products that did everything we need. Products that tackle multiple issues like ageing, acne, pigmentation etc with state of the art dynamic ingredients, but somehow are dirt cheap rather than the usual eye watering prices that mean most of us simply can’t afford them. Well guess what? I found them!!! …
#ThatGirl and the inversion of wellness
After doing a few interviews with hypnotherapist Zoë Clews, specially the one on the perfectionism crisis, it got me thinking about my own social media. So today in my video, I want to set the record straight as it’s important to me that I don’t give anyone the wrong impression. You can watch it here: YOUTUBE Zoë has also written …
Why you need to embrace the sprout
I hate brussel sprouts. No, I mean really hate them. I literally cannot eat a cooked sprout. I mean why would I? They’re gross, right? This was me just a few short years ago. Now I do eat sprouts because I discovered a great way of serving them on a trip to California a few years back. They often eat …
The perfect eye palette for a grown up smokey eye (video)
I love a smokey eye but is it still a good look after a certain age? The answer is to do a super flattering grown up version.

The pressure to be perfect (video)
Perfectionsim is rife (in so small part thanks to social media) and for many has become an addiction.

It can make life very difficult and leave one feeling a failure if the impossible goal of being perfect isn’t reached. I sit …

Why is everyone talking about vegetable oils?
There’s a new bad boy on the block. Just when we thought sugar was as bad as it could possibly get, this bad boy could be even MORE detrimental to our health and wellbeing. The murmurings about vegetable and seed oils began in earnest about the same time as the pandemic started and are now being shouted about all over …
Skin treatments worth the money at 50+ (video)
It really is most unfair that at the stage of life where you need facial treatments and rejuvenation the most, you are least likely to get a good result. In my previous interviews with Dr Khan (cosmetic surgeon at the Harley Street Skin Clinic) we have spoken about the fact that after the age of 50, all facial treatments become …
Are you ready for the Metaverse?
Since the pandemic started, doesn’t it feel like we’ve been transported into some kind of science fiction scenario? Silly old movies now seem to be becoming a reality. The world feels different and alien in many ways. Social media has become even more powerful and influential, as have the billionaire founders of these companies. Anyone who’s on social media will …
