Did you know that your gut and your brain are in regular conversation? They have a pretty close relationship, with your mental state influencing gut function and vice versa. Perhaps you’ve experienced ‘butterflies in your stomach’, or felt nauseous before an event? Or felt your mouth water upon seeing or smelling a delicious meal? These are all very real phenomena and due to your mind-gut connection. Knowing this mind-gut link exists can help explain how feeling anxious may impact how your gut is functioning, but perhaps more significant (though not as well known) is that what’s going on in your gut could also be impacting your mental health. If you are struggling with stress,depression, anxiety or experiencing regular mood swings then natural medicine could hold some answers for you.
To learn more on this topic join me at The Yoga Loft, Level 5/50 Hunter St Newcastle 7:30pm, 19th February for an informative talk on gut health and how to make sure yours is functioning at its optimum.

How is your gut after the frivolities that were the festive season?
It might be time to turn those pretty stemless wine glasses into gut healing smoothie glasses instead?🥂
Dont forget to add your culinary herbs to your smoothies. For extra nutrients and cleansing properties (my favourites are parsley, coriander and mint).
If you feeling a little 'blocked up' try adding prunes, slippery elm powder or some aloe vera juice.
Feeling bloated? Open up the capsule and pop your probiotic straight into the smoothie.
You also have tumeric powder or ginger root to help with bloating.
Start your gut healing by making the right choice for breaky today.
Greens powder is also a nice way to alkalise after a few too many acidic foods. My favourite is the Metagenics G-Tox.

We are not only what we eat, but also what we drink, breathe and touch. In today’s environment we are constantly surrounded by chemicals, plastics, heavy metals, foods and additives which are toxic to our system. Our bodies are designed to work best by digesting and absorbing pure and organic fruit, vegetables, nuts, grains, proteins and water. We certainly weren’t made with enzymes designed to break down, confectionery, alcohol, soft drinks, additives and preservatives, processed foods, medications, traffic fumes, cigarettes and recreational drugs. Over time continued contact with these toxins can overwhelm the body, resulting in us not feeling or looking our absolute best.
Your skin is your biggest elimination organ thus if you are healthy on the inside you are guaranteed to have flawless, radiant skin. If you are experiencing problems with pimples, pigmentation, eczema, dermatitis or heat rashes, then your skin is crying out for a good cleanse! Not another expensive cleanser but a good internal cleanse. You need to detoxify your system.
Top detox tips
Remove sugar, alcohol, preservatives, colours and additives from your diet.
Consume a minimum of 2 litres of filtered drinking water.
Choose easily digestible proteins. Vegetable proteins such as legumes, quinoa, raw nuts and seeds are all good sources. Fish is also easily digested, but you must choose smaller unfarmed fish.
Always choose fresh seasonal fruit and vegetables, it is preferable to buy organic produce where possible.
Remove bad fats and sugar from the diet.
Remove gluten from the diet: A very high percentage of the population of are intolerant to gluten causing it to decrease the absorption of nutrients which may lead to vitamin/mineral deficiencies, bowel problems and allergy symptoms.
Choose dairy free options, use rice milk or coconut
Exfoliate your skin daily with a pure bristled brush.
Exercise regularly.

To do a safe thorough detoxification it is best to have a detox program individually designed for your health goals. When I prescribe a detox program for a client, I take into consideration their health history and prescribe the perfect herbal/nutritional and herbal support it needs to eliminate the toxins safely.
I will be back in the clinic to support you with your health concerns from the 15th January, I look forward to supporting you for a happy, healthy 2019. ... See MoreSee Less
