I was recently on the cover of S Magazine (Sunday supplement in the Sunday Express). In the interview (which also appeared in the Sunday Mirror), I talk about acting, Ageless and how I overcame anxiety with a very special breathing exercise, alongside some other techniques I’m posting the interview here as some people were not able to access it. In …
Glynis’ interview on the Elle Sera podcast
This week the tables were turned and I was the one being interviewed. Elissa Corrigan, the founder of Elle Sera (the golden supplement) wanted to talk health, ageing and career with me. I’ll be doing a follow up interview with her as well in a few weeks, to learn all about her amazing supplement. We had a great time, as …
Is the sweetener erythritol safe to eat?
There’s sugar and then there are the many sweeteners out there. The good, the bad and the absolutely diabolical. I would categorise ALL artificial sweeteners as diabolical. I’ve written before about natural sweeteners and have learned from my talk with biochemist Sakiko (founder of sugar free chocolate brand NoMoSu) that they have many benefits and are by far the best …
Why plain water won’t properly hydrate you
You would think that drinking plenty of water through the day would fully hydrate you, wouldn’t you? There are, however, a few crucial points to consider. Firstly, as mentioned in my book The In-Sync Diet, co-written with nutritionist Fleur Borrelli, it’s important to drink larger amounts when thirsty, rather than taking little sips through the day. Little sips will not …
A facelift in a bottle
What’s not to love about a serum that firms and tightens your skin? One of the brilliant serums in the ARK skincare range has been called “a facelift in a bottle” and I have to say it’s pretty impressive. I have fallen in love with the ARK skincare range. It ticked all the boxes for me in what I was …
How to top up your collagen levels
Collagen has been called the glue that holds everything together. It’s a very important component of your bodies but our supplies of it decline rapidly with age, so we need to get collagen from the foods we eat or through supplementation. I mentioned in a instagram post that bone broth is a fantastic source of collagen and was surprised by …
Why I love the ARK skincare ethos
One thing that’s important to consider as we choose what skincare to use, is to ask “what does our skin need at this moment in time”. That may seem pretty obvious, but it’s surprising how often people will keep using the same products for years or use products for issues they don’t actually have. As we age our skin changes …
Control your negative and fear-based thoughts
I recently met up with Mindfulness author, Ora Nadrich to talk about her “Says Who” method, based on her successful book of that name. The question is who exactly is that speaking in our heads? And who has control of that voice and the dialogue? According to Ora we do. We are in control of our internal dialogue Through a …
A hero product for the lip area
Ageing is not for the fainthearted, that’s for sure. Besides the many health issues that can arise, one has to watch things happening to the face that one didn’t even know could happen. I thought the saggy jowls would be the worst of it, but no, there’s even worse. And that’s the lines that suddenly appear above the mouth. I …
Let’s talk about rosacea
Just a few short years ago, I had hardly even heard of rosacea. I wasn’t sure what it was and felt certain it wasn’t something I needed to know about. But the fact is, with age, specially from the menopause onwards, rosacea becomes a more and more common condition. It turns out I have a mild form of rosacea A …
