Fleur – How our food habits have changed. Nowadays we don’t have to stay hungry for long. We can potter down to our local convenience store and pick something up within minutes of the first hunger pangs. Our incredibly busy lives often mean that cooking is a thing of the past. Why bother when we have everything ready-made at the …
Howard Napper, from his numerous books and DVD’s, is one of the most recognised faces of yoga in the UK. He is also the man who devised the fabulous and highly effective sequence of yoga exercises on my Yoga Secrets DVD. He has recently been specialising in stress and the way we age. He is in fact researching and writing …
Last Saturday saw my husband, Michael Brandon, and myself at ITV studios filming All Star Mr & Mrs! We weren’t entirely sure if this was a good idea to be honest. We had a feeling it would end in one extreme or the other. Complete humiliation that after many years of marriage we would have to admit to the nation …
Glynis Last summer I went to see nutritionist Fleur Borrelli little knowing that she would make changes to the way I eat and the way I exercise that would have a very profound effect on my life. I would lose inches, as well as just under a stone/12lbs in weight, drop a dress size, gain lean muscle, have vastly improved …
I was recently lucky enough to work with top make up artist Ruby Hammer (check out her Ruby & Millie range) on a photo shoot. As you would imagine, she’s a mine of information and knows every trick in the trade. She applied my foundation with a an egg shaped sponge and was adamant this sponge is an absolute must …

To my absolute delight it seems we have quite a few men following the site and now they are demanding more! They too want to know what’s best for their skin and what they should be looking out for. So here, specially for all you hunks out there (and remember you are a hunk in your Mum’s eyes whatever anybody …
I came across this article this week on www.canceractive.com and thought it so important that I have decided to repost it here. This reinforces all that I believe is important to have and maintain good health. Although this is aimed at people who have or have had cancer, it is the very same advice that is needed to maintain good …
Hair loss is one of the topics that has been repeatedly requested for me to cover. We all know that this is a frequent problem for men but it’s also a frequent and very upsetting problem for women. Why does it happen and more importantly is there anything we can do to stop it? Shabir Daya (pharmacist at Victoria Health) …
Had great fun at QVC on the 2nd March. Party atmosphere thanks to John Barrowman livening up proceedings and Howard and I thrilled that our Yoga Secrets DVD was a sell out. Looking forward to doing more! Got to film with the charming Brendan Gleeson on All you need is Kill. I was a mere cog in …
As I’ve written before I prefer to use products on my skin that are either organic and/or with as few synthetic chemicals as possible. We’re so lucky that these days we have such a wonderful range to choose from. Here are some of my favourites that I have used at different times over the years: Neal’s Yard They are true …
