Intelligent exercise is not just to move more but to make the muscles glide in synergy from left to right.

The field of integrative health goes deep. It has to because we are multi-dimensional beings.

However, as patients, we've been brainwashed to believe that doctors fix us when we're poorly and that a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down. Taking supplements is part of this conditioning. We read from DR Google that a certain supplement will help our symptoms. ITS NOT THAT SIMPLE.

All nutraceuticals impact the body-mind in different ways, and understanding the pathway of diss-ease is complex. If you, like me, have a cupboard full of supplements, it's important to understand WHY. If you feel they made no difference, then why would you keep on wasting good money? Here are a few factors to help you stop wasting your hard-earned cash.

1. Buy cheap, buy twice - Brands count. Research the scientific background of the labs that support their claims.
2. Find the pathology of the problem upstream. Health symptoms involve pathways. It's not just a suck-it-and-see approach.
3. Get some support - We encourage you to post questions about supplements and health pathways on this platform. We have a dedicated team that monitors posts to help improve your well-being.

The supplements in the image above could very well help ease your symptoms, but not when taken willy-nilly - they are designed as a careful step-by-step process. Timing, dosage and knowing when to or when not to overlap is key.

We may be able to help you find the problem, and support you treat its cause, not just the symptoms.

It's been a while...but I felt this important to share with my closest followers...https://www.huffpost.com/archive/ca/entry/low-carb-high-fat-is-what-we-physicians-eat-you-should-too_ca_5cd50aa0e4b07bc729743598?fbclid=IwAR0u7Atcp6rLpBIgA7B63DVQmSmAFHaSjpEU2baZCKfKgNQ2Yw-uD3ovnZU

Low-Carb, High-Fat Is What We Physicians Eat. You Should, Too We have adopted this diet for ourselves and our families, for health and well-being reasons. And we continue to eat this way because we love what we eat.

Feeling heavy and bogged down by Summer? A combination of creatine and electrolytes improves cellular absorption.

Exercise, workouts and yoga often reduce tension in the muscles and help increase strength and flexibility. Many tension patterns and contractions are deep inside the body, often without our conscious awareness. TRE (Tremor Release Exercises) uncover these less conscious but obvious tension patterns. The contractions release tension at this deeper level. When this occurs, the body takes on greater flexibility and resilience. This increased awareness of a ‘deeper sense of self’ often extends itself into the realm of the ‘spiritual’ to which many people aspire.

Regarding Sleep Issues...Melatonin is a banned substance in the UK and across much of Europe due to its long-term damaging impact on natural endogenous production. However, it can be used safely with the correct dosage and integrative approach.

Trauma survives, and those with long-term stress-related illnesses are often sleep deprived and yet require circadian support where possible to help them heal. 'Regerest', from my experience, is a great example of how all forms of medicine can be both the poison and the cure...what is crucial is the tipping point (The Dosage).

If this post offends you it might be worth unfollowing this health page. Why, because I only share evidence-based information. This is in response to the propaganda we are being fed that meat is unhealthy and that we need to 'greenfeed' our children a plant-based diet to improve their mental health. No, we need to reduce their sugar intake and that means most fruit, grains and complex carbs and instead up their healthy saturated fat and animal protein. Then they will balance their blood sugar, reduce cravings and have more energy to get outdoors! https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17374691/

Meat supplementation improves growth, cognitive, and behavioral outcomes in Kenyan children - PubMed A randomized, controlled school feeding study was conducted in rural Embu District, Kenya to test for a causal link between animal-source food intake and changes in micronutrient nutrition and growth, cognitive, and behavioral outcomes. Twelve primary schools were randomly assigned to 1 of 4 groups....

One-off worldwide, limited-time offer...I'm taking advantage of a Great-Plains training offer for reduced priced Organ Acid Tests. The OAT is a urine test that collates markers from metabolites given off by yeasts, negative gram bacteria, mould, heavy metals and other compounds which negatively impact immune health.

You can learn more about it here:

greatplainslaboratory.com/organic-acids-test

Toxic load, organ damage, dysbiosis of the gut, fatigue, bodily pain, and long term markers can be identified on the OAT, and it's the functional medicine gold standard for understanding pathways to 'diss-ease'.

I'm prepared to waver any mark-up on these discounted tests and I'll include an interpretation and subsequent health plan at no cost in return for testimonials. This is a worldwide offer as Great-plains ships internationally.

As shown, the tests usually are $319. I'm offering them for $179, including a Zoom consultation and health plan, in return for testimonials.

I'll be placing an order on Monday 16th May, so please don't delay.

BRAIN FOG is becoming increasingly experienced and yet your GP will rarely explain or perhaps even understands its origins. Does it impact you and what do you believe is the cause?

Dear (client's name), OK so, I am going to be totally transparent with you it's crucial in the line of health work. I myself have managed a long term health condition for 15 years which has its roots in but is not solely governed by digestive health. This means I understand your challenges empathetically. I have trained in psycho-physiological disciplines to help keep myself well and spent thousands of pounds in training and consultations with leaders in the field of gastro-neuro-development.

I believe my investment can help others to find shortcuts on their healing path - I wish I knew back then what I know now.

Research is now backing the fact, that gut health is a multi-faceted approach and there's no one size fits all. As a functional medicine practitioner, there are many avenues to consider and one area is better understanding your life pathology. Then we can start your recovery path.

I would ask that before we consider working together, if you feel comfortable, that you expand on your emotional history, are there any emotional disturbances that may have caused the start of your health decline? Also, any factors that may have contributed, from your childhood...Trauma, loss or severe upset?

I can help with guidance around supplementation, diet and lifestyle but to be effective we may need to dive deeper. After this, I would propose we have a zoom call and chat about some steps for moving you forward. My payment methods which are quite unconventional and on a sliding scale.

The importance of movement, grounding, somatic experiencing and much more will be covered in a coming workshop at the Quaker Meeting House 9th April 10am to 12. You will leave with practical steps to help calm the central nervous system and transform old patterns that cause habitual holding patterns and nervous tension throughout the body.

Primal Reset Workshop

'Being the very best version of ourselves is simple'

Somatic experiencing teaches us to align our bodily sensations with our thoughts and emotions. The work can be liberating, but first, we must learn to make peace with the soma – the body.

When emotions get stuck, we humans disengage from our bodies and do our very best to keep busy. If continued for some time, we can develop somatic mutations. The magic combo for addressing this is safety and support because a body harboring unspent emotions is often a dark and dense place to visit alone.

The body is a fathomless intelligence, and when grounded sensitively, the muscles hold the key to longevity through existential movement. Myokines expressed by muscle fibre work to harmonize activity and metabolism in the seamless dance of wellbeing. Knitted together by our breath, we are pulsating organisms connected, via electromagnetic waves, to the universe. Every subtle ebb and flow of life and every interaction with others impacts our health.

Elation is when we achieve something that we think is outside our reach. When we achieve the seemingly impossible, we defy our limitations. Here we meet that part of ourselves that we always knew existed. If it happens in us it can happen in others.

And yet, no form of logic gives rise to such deep intelligence. You cannot think your way out of the fear of your untapped potential. Your nervous system has inbuilt mechanisms far greater than you could imagine. After all, did it not present every obstacle and challenge you have experienced to keep you safe in order to prime you for success?

When our unconscious belief system becomes aligned with joy, there is no limit to our success potential.
The journey begins where drops of improvement begin to cascade like a fountain. The shift can happen in as little as 6 weeks. But firstly, we have to learn to explore the feelings of those unspoken emotions.

When we humans begin to regain and maintain our inner terrain, the rest happens all by itself.

I never said it was easy, I said it was simple.
