Sick people need our help and empathy, not to be stigmatised for their illness, but unfortunately for centuries people with contagious or serious illness have had to pay the penalty of society’s judgement. Slowly over the years it has begun to change but still it is not common to talk about our panic attacks (one in four people suffer these at some stage of their lives) or our depression (how would it affect your promotion at work) or the grief you are feeling simply because your wonderful dog died. We have become to some extent a society that ‘soldiers on’ and in doing that we bury our feelings and illnesses and surround ourselves with shame instead of understanding and healing.

Many of my clients come to me with small cysts in various parts of their body. They can be anywhere but mostly I get clients with cysts in the breasts, kidneys or in the reproductive organs. Anything growing inside our bodies that we feel should not be there is of concern and of course our first reaction may be to get it out of there. Often the removal can be also detrimental to our health. It is important to be educated and empowered enough to make correct assessments of what we want to do without being swayed by fear.

Hypnosis has been used with great success for years for pain relief, to lose weight, quit smoking…for all sorts of things. Theoretically it is an exercise in getting your mind to work with you instead of your subconscious sabotaging your efforts to help you change. A trained hypnotherapist can help you change those bad habits quickly and to gain a much healthier lifestyle without you having to really put in too much effort.

A number of sleep studies done all over the world show just how essential sleep is and corroborate the fact that many of us get way too little of it. Latest studies also show that sleeping extra one day does not necessarily make up for the sleep you missed the day before and that even after a short time your health begins to suffer.

There is a bit of confusion amongst the general public as to what is needed to keep our digestion healthy. We hear a lot about probiotics and prebiotics and digestive supplements but many of my clients are not to sure what they should be taking and why.

Men are staying fitter and sexier way into their old age these days. They are taking more pride in their appearance and the greying hair and bald head is looking sophisticated and distinguished on top of fitter, trimmer bodies.

Seems there is a world epidemic of multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus, and they did not understand what toxin was causing this to be rampant across the United States. This is what prompted this investigation mentioned above in the first place.

Laughter is good for you. It is not being silly and not a distraction. It’s good to learn to laugh at home and at work and important to laugh with your colleagues. How much better to work in a happy environment?

Monosodium Glutamate, commonly known as MSG, is a slow poison. It is disguised under 25 other names, such as “natural flavouring” and can even be found in some coffees overseas

I recently read an article on depression being rife in our aged care facilities. The article went on to say how medical researchers found that aged care workers working in the facility were unaware as to the extent that it was happening and that even elderly people are coving it up as they are somewhat embarrassed, feel that it is a part of getting older (which psychologically it is not) and did not want to cause a fuss.

Melatonin is a hormone made primarily in the pineal gland in the brain. It is synthesized from the amino acid tryptophan and the neurotransmitter serotonin and is a chief regulator of sleep.

Did you know that Potassium is important for healthy muscles and nerves in your whole body? A lack of potassium will affect how you balance fluids in your body, how your blood vessels function, your skin, nervous system, sports performance and cardiac health.
