UK-Based Health Building Website and Shop Coming Your Way Soon

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes!

Oh come on, you know you're singing it too! Don't fight it, let it flow....


So after some thought and much consideration I have decided to change the name of my blog to what my website will be when I launch it next year (SOOOO excited!!) I really hope none of my readers will miss this post and then not be able to find me; that would really suck! So in honour of this little event, I thought I would give you a preview of what you can expect from my website (and me in general over the time it will take to get my site up and running) and hopefully get you as excited about it as I am :-) Check below for links to my new Facebook page and Twitter and Instagram feeds!

A UK-based health and wellness information centre

Find yourself link-hopping all night and not actually finding the thing you were looking for? The internet is vast, and I want to make it easier to find the info you need. There are so many excellent websites out there but sometimes they can be hard to find or navigate, and a lot of times they are based in another country, which makes it hard to know what's relevant if you live somewhere else, like in the UK.

I want to give people an everything-under-one-roof type health and wellness website, where you will not only be able to book my services as a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practioner, but also find some (hopefully) really cool and relevant information. I'll also include my UK-based tweaks to - and links to - other good sources of information so that you can delve deeper into any of the subjects as you wish. One of my biggest frustrations with the internet is just how many people claim to have THE answer to all your troubles, and of course it is the ONLY answer...Pah, I say! NOBODY at all, not even the greatest expert in any of the fields, has all the answers, and that's a fact.

Because the truth is we are all as unique as our fingerprints and what works great for you, might really mess me up. Here's looking at you, low-carb diets... My intention with this website is not necessarily to provide the information itself, but certainly to provide pathways to information that you can follow to find what you are being called to. Does that make sense?? In other words, if you are leaning towards the Paleo diet because you've heard good things and your instinct is telling you to go for it, but you need more information before you take the plunge, then I can steer you towards the most well researched and cited information I've found to date. And I never stop reading!

The other thing I want to provide is a tried-and-tested approach to the various health building diets out there that really are making people better and stamping out the scourges of the 21st century like autoimmune diseases and diabetes and cancer. I've played guinea pig to many of them already and I have experienced the pitfalls and the benefits as well as researched why I experienced those pitfalls. I will be able to recommend books, websites and provide recipes and DIY's to make your life easier if you are going to try one of them. And at some point in the future I'll get around to compiling my recipes and putting them all into an affordable little ebook for you all ;-)

Here's a list of topics you can expect to see as the website grows:

• How to clear up your skin naturally
• How to stop hair-fall and heal your scalp
• How to get better sleep
• All natural body care and green cleaning (that is SUPER cheap and gloriously messy easy!)
• Pointers on foods that heal and foods that harm 
• Hacks to make healthy living simpler and more affordable
• Ancestral health diets and how to make them work for you
• Importance of your microbiome and probiotics
• Making your own supplements and the ones to buy that will actually help you (hint: you pee most of your supplements out!)
• Stress and how it affects your health
• Stress busting tips for really busy people like you and me
• How to take charge of your health and actually get better
• Connecting with nature and the Universe
• How we can only be as healthy as the Earth
• Eco living made simple
• Tons of recipes!
• Crafty how-to's
• Homeschooling ins and outs
• And probably a heckuva lot more!

The Apothecary Shop

I'll also be opening up my Etsy shop very soon with my homemade products at real-people prices. Who needs to spend £5.00 on a "luxury handmade natural soap" with artificial fragrances and colourants, when a £2.00 full-sized bar of all natural soap will benefit the whole family (and environment) in more ways than just the wallet department?

Expect to see a variety of soaps, kefir grains, facial oils, clay masks, moisturising balms, eco cleaning products, herbal tea blends and more, all made from biodegradable and 100% natural ingredients. I'll also put up some of mine and the kids' crafty items, just for fun and a bit of extra fundraising for the kids' homeschooling adventures.

In the meantime I'll carry on putting up the odd post with recipes every couple of weeks or so. Stay tuned because next time I'll show you how to make your own liver capsules for those who can't bear the taste (like me!) and why you need liver in your diet.

So what do you think? Excited or ho-hum? Is there something you feel is missing that you would like to know more about? Please weigh in below! Also you can like me on Facebook and follow me on Twitter and Instagram to keep up to date with the latest posts and happenings. Be well!
