Here psychotherapist Joan Kingsley advises on how to keep the mind young. Watch out for the bit about exercise! I don’t want to say I told you so but ……..I just can’t stop myself…..I tol….phew, stopped myself. (such control huh?) And the bit about using those brain cells? Glad to see that challenging myself doing this website has done me …
Article in Daily Mail
Thank you so much to the Daily Mail for putting my age in their headline! (for the sake of clarity, I am dripping with sarcasm). Of course they were always going to put my age in the article ( UK press obsessed with woman’s ages) but since I turned 40, my age has featured in umpteen headlines. The first time …
Non Invasive Skin Tightening
I should imagine that most mature(ish) women, and frankly even immature ones, crave tight, sag-free, dewy, glowing skin, free from wrinkles and age spots. I would also imagine that most of these mature/immature women are rather less keen on actually going under the knife to achieve it. We live in an age where much of this is achievable. Hoorah!!!! At …
I meet Margo Marrone from The Organic Pharmacy
I was really excited to meet Margo Marrone and her husband Franco who started one of my favourite places, The Organic Pharmacy. I loved that you could drop in and have a homeopathic medicine made up on the spot and that you could chat with the homeopath or chemist on duty about any ailments and come away with all kinds …
Help for Anxiety Disorder
Stress is one of the scourges of our age. Most people feel stressed some of the time but many people feel it nearly all of the time. Living in a city is stressful, driving is stressful, working is stressful, not working is stressful and finances are most definitely stressful. This state of constant stress takes it’s toll on our general …
Catherine McGoohan (Actress)
I have always believed beauty comes from within. As I get older and the signs of a long life begin to show on my face I still believe that. Our looks reflect what we think, what we eat, how much sleep we get and how deeply we love. I think we should do what makes us happy and gives us …
Inflammation by Fleur Borrelli (nutritionist)

It’s also a major factor in premature ageing. So what’s going on and what is inflammation? Here Fleur Borrelli gives us an understanding of what inflammation actually is. Inflammation …
Eyebrow facelift
I firmly believe that eyebrows can make a huge difference to how you look. Badly shaped or plucked brows are very unflattering and beautiful brows can literally take years off you. I myself, butchered my brows in my teens. I had lovely, full and quite dark eyebrows. As my hair was light blonde I was embarrassed by them so one …
The Top 6 supplements To Take
I am an enthusiastic supplement taker! I even love reading about them and get excited when I discover new ones. All my friends marvel (and I suspect are slightly appalled) at how many I take! However, people are forever asking me what they should be taking. Writing an article on supplements was therefore a priority. I called Shabir Dama, pharmacist at Victoria health, for …

The Drop Zone Diet Book – Introduction (Part 1)
Our relationship with food is probably one of the most complex in our lives. What woman (and men too I’m sure) doesn’t have issues with her shape, her size or feel she’s failed when she indulges in calorie laden foods? Every January resolutions are made around the world that this time, this year we will be thinner, better, more disciplined. …
My day on QVC
The 1st January saw me on QVC with my Yoga DVD! It’s always a bit nerve wracking doing something for the first time but I was wonderfully supported by my favourite yoga teacher Howard Napper, my partner on the DVD. We actually had a hoot with all the other people who were on the same hour as us. Leading the …
