Join me for my last FREE in-person workshop for 2020 next Sat 7 Nov 2-4.30pm in Double Bay where my co-presenter Claire Grullemans, naturopath and nutritionist, and I will educate you on how to become MORE EMPOWERED in your health care by being your family’s healer for day to day niggles and how to switch out the harsh chemicals in your home that are causing your and your family’s health (and the planet’s health) to unravel.

The ingredients found in conventional personal care products and household cleaning products are in a word toxic: carcinogenic, endocrine disrupting, neurotoxic and/or allergic. Just because something is ubiquitously used or allowed to be sold doesn’t make it safe!!!

Let us show you how you can healthy swap to all natural, toxic free, super powerful, and cost effective products in a positive and empowering way at your pace. You will find relief and simplicity in conveniently streamlining everything to just 👏🏻one 👏🏻place 👏🏻 that all gets delivered to your door and whose quality and ingredients tick all the boxes. Claire and I have strong boundaries around the brands we use, trust and recommend and would not put anything on our or our children’s bodies if it didn’t pass our rigorous due diligence!

My team provides free support exclusive to members in my community:

✅ access to a password protected online member resources portal which contains a wealth of information including a 100+ page guide on toxic free living

✅ongoing personalised support

✅monthly educational oils groups via zoom

✅closed FB page

This Saturday 24 Oct 9am - 3pm will be my LAST Food as Medicine talk (held via zoom webinar). My co-presenter, Marieke Rodenstein - leading holistic dietician, GAPS practitioner and staunch advocate of regenerative farming- have had a sensational 2 year tour of Australia,  presenting on how food can be the most powerful medicine. 

In this transformational education-packed presentation we dive into the fundamentals of robust nutrition and robust gut health, and inspire you to become more conscious and intentional with what you are putting in and on your body from your food to your personal care products and household cleaning products. We discuss the 2 primary epigenetic factors that influence our health and unpack them into the 8 Foundations of Health.

We provide you with all the tools and resources you need to empower you to optimise your health including all 5 of my online cooking classes (retailing at $79 each!) plus a 65+ page ‘How To’ manual that sets you up for life so that you can indeed live your best life.

The propaganda of normalising toxicity

Guest User

 

I’m often surprised and puzzled when people refer to my diet and lifestyle choices as “extreme”. After all I’m just advocating a biologically congruent or species appropriate diet. How can that on any measure be considered extreme? How can anyone accuse a lion on the savanna of Africa eating meat or a rabbit eating carrots or a cow eating grass or a bird eating seeds of being extreme? If those animals ate anything other than what they have evolved to eat then yes that would be cause to call them “extreme” (defined as “not usual; exceptional” or “further from the centre”). 

For kids and teens, the desire to ‘fit in’ and be part of the tribe is so strong in their hierarchy of needs, that it completely overrides the need to be healthy. Thanks to the slick, sexy and clever marketing and deep pockets of Big Food, Big Ag, and Big Pharma, our kids are sent powerful subliminal and overt messages that processed “foods” and “drinks” and artificial substances are not only ok for them but are totally normal, cool and beneficial. And once something becomes ubiquitous, it becomes entrenched in the very fabric of society and normalised as safe. 

Conscious consumers understand that everything is information and affects our body at a cellular level, switching genes on and off for better or for worse. We understand that processed crap sold as “food” has deleterious effects on physical, mental and emotional health leading to gut, behavioural, skin and learning issues. 

As parents we only want the best for our children and want them to be the brightest, healthiest, and happiest versions of themselves. 

On this planet of free will, once your kids hit a certain age and have the power and freedom to buy and eat what they want, it is difficult as a conscious parent to sit back and watch them make choices that undermine their health driven by the need to “fit in” and also in part to rebel against their parents as a way of defining their own independence. 

All we can do is to drop the issue, lead by example, be a role model, surrender to what is, hope that they will at some stage tune into their body to appreciate the effect that their choices have on  their physical and emotional health and trust that one day they will, like we did, choose a more vibrant path. The hope is that they too will come to the poignant realisation that just because something is allowed to be sold or is ubiquitously consumed in society or by their circle of friends, that doesn’t make it safe. The hope is that they are conscious and courageous enough to choose a different, more nourishing path, that better aligns with who they truly are.  

Sometimes we have to lose ourselves to find ourselves. 

Sometimes we need to travel to the extremes (junk) to come back to centre (nourishment). 

Whether it is a pipe dream or the inevitable shift in our conscious evolution as a species, I do look forward to the day when the tables are turned so that natural becomes the normal, and toxic becomes the extreme.
