Holistic Winter Health & Wellness homeopathy, flower essences, The Simplest Remedy

So many factors impact our good health in winter – more time inside with heating, less natural circulation, less physical activity, less sunshine/vitamin D and being in close quarters with people. So, let’s look at our holistic winter health and wellness. Some occupations like health care, teachers, carers, childcare, grocery store attendants can have a higher rate of exposure. Hence why it’s important to have a ‘health maintenance’ attitude to be proactive, rather than reactive when illness comes knocking. So much of winter health information is glass half empty, but let’s look at it as a glass half full – …

Natural Remedies for Headaches, homeopathy, flower essences

The common ailment that bothers me the most frequently would have to be headaches. Hormonal changes, circulatory issues, stress, sugar fluctuations, spinal misalignments and blood pressure problems often cause chronic headaches in women more than men. Let’s look at some natural remedies for headaches. While main stream media is full of advertising for products containing paracetamol and not letting a pesky headache stop you from getting everything done in your day, prolonged or excessive use of such products can have a negative impact on your overall health. Paracetamol is largely metabolised in the liver and is metabolised differently in premature …

Simple, Holistic Ways to Achieve all you Desire

Navigating the Empty Nester Stage, homeopathy, flower essences, emotional support

I must admit, I always viewed the stage of children leaving home as the parents’ time to reconnect and pursue things of their own enjoyment without living life around the schedule of their kids. But as I get closer to this period in my life, I notice a general sense of sadness in my friends whose children are moving out and navigating the empty nester stage. Usually it’s a rational sense of sadness where the parent misses the child’s company or presence around the house because they understand the child is pursuing their own life and adjusting to the world …

Your Spiritual Self. Practical support for spiritual growth. Flower essences relating to spirituality.

Why does spirituality mean to you? When I think about spirituality, I think about the awareness of being part of something much bigger than ourselves, bigger even than our family and our country.
