The essence of my life is living with appreciation and enjoying every moment. Having family and friends close by to share my life with. Always being proud of my accomplishments and living with passion in all that I do! Realising some days may not be all that you hoped for, but also knowing what beautiful possibilities you can make for …
Strategies to promote healthy and flexible joints
You don’t have to be old to suffer from joint pain. I was 18 when I started to get lower back pain and in my 20’s when I started to get problems with my knees (ok that one was probably my fault as I was jogging on hard surfaces). However it only gets worse as the years go by. The …
Woman and Home
Here I am in March edition of Woman & Home. Had a fun time with all the lovely people there. The shoot itself literally took 10 minutes (the quicker the better I say) and I was beside myself with excitement that I got to wear jewellery from my favourite shop Van Peterson!
It’s All In The Mind
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)
Inflammation is a normal function of the body but when it becomes chronic it can cause many diseases and allergic conditions. These can range from hayfever to cancer and even Alzheimer’s. 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 …
