Superfood or Superfad? Celebrate the good times!
I have escaped to a warmer climate with all four of my boys for ten days! Melbourne has been freezing and with the mid year break why not? I think the times when all of the family will be together for a family holiday are running out, as they now have commitments with...
You’re invited to a very exclusive wellness party!
It's a party! And it will be fun but it will also be a safe, caring and private space where we will talk about all things weight loss and wellness. It will however, be much more than that. It'll be about the whole of you - your body and mind. Because we are...
Do you get high daily?
You might think I'm taking drugs, alcohol or an overload of sugar! Well I have been known to ..joking.. I'm not! I'm actually talking the natural high that you experience as result of exercising. Yep continuing on the same theme as last week and the need...
Everybody… move your body… everyday!
"Exercise and application produce orders in our affairs, health of body, cheerfulness of mind and these make us precious to our friends”      Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826) I've just returned from a gorgeous weekend away with my oldest and dearest...
When FEAR becomes your new BFF!
It's funny how things happen... the sequence they take. Last week I posted about how important it is to really listen to your body, because it has much to tell you. So this week I practiced what I preach and did just that. I had a niggling or best described as...
Do you listen to your body?
Well do you? And I mean really listen... In this crazy busy world in which we live, more often than not, me included, we don't. We're constantly rushing from A across to B, we're looking after everyone and everything and we're just not taking the time to stop,...
A confession from a wobbly thigh … part one!
“You know things are changing when you don't recognise yourself in the mirror anymore. The change I suspect has been a gradual one and perhaps I've been too busy moving from A to B to notice. But today I noticed. I'm the wobbliest I've ever been!!! And if I'm...
Fifty and Fabulous – Somewhere Between Neverland and Now.
Ok... for some time I've been thinking about the whole concept of change. Don't think for one minute that I'm talking about THE CHANGE that a woman goes through! I'm not ...but then again maybe I am!  ... You'll  see my conundrum. For those of you that have...
Superfoods…?
I am reading a plethora (love that word) of stuff out there in the marketplace about superfoods. Everyone seems to have an opinion of what they are, how good they are for you, how you should include them in your diet and not to mention the list of their favourite top...
The French Paradox – Myth or Truth?
Are you aware that I'm a mad francophile and desperately trying to be a francophone too? My dream (read goal) is to one day own une petite maison de francais somewhere in the French countryside. It will happen ... just not quite sure when!! So anything French gets my...
Are you prone to scale jump?
I spoke with one of my clients last night who has successfully dropped 5 kilos since having a Intensive VIP Day with me mid January…. a fabulous result! She'd like to drop a couple more kgs and was a little frustrated that the number on the scale hadn’t moved in a...
Body Shapes – Apple, Pear or Banana?
I'm hungry, it’s late afternoon and I need a snack to tide me over to dinner in a few hours. A new season apple has caught my eye and to ensure I keep my blood sugar levels on an even keel, I need to have a protein/healthy fat source with it. Today my choice is a...
