Find Yourself Heavy, Sluggish or Constipated? Would you like 3 Suggestions...


Find yourself heavy, sluggish or constipated?

Try these suggestions:

Suggestion one
Increase your input of low-GI vegetables — lettuce, celery, cucumber, tomato, spinach, silver beet, cabbage, bok choy, onion, zucchini, avocado, sprouts, snow peas, green beans, capsicum, broccoli and cauliflower. Eat up to six cups per day. This will give you the fibre and the vitamins and minerals to get things moving. Drink loads of water - up to 2 litres a day.

Suggestion two

3 tsp flaxseeds soaked overnight in ¼ cup boiling water
5 prunes, de-seeded

If the above methods don't help try Motion Potion.  A teaspoonful each day makes a big difference.


It's worth knowing - if you're not having a well formed stool twice a day, all these suggestions will help get things going and keep things moving!






How to Look Ten Years Younger Starting From The Inside Out

10 years younger - from the inside out!

Want to look 10 years younger and keep it that way? 

What if you could reduce your biological age?   

Well now you can, by reducing your biomarkers - the biological 'markers' of aging. The Young Within Program is all about just that!

What would you choose? 
Your chronological age may be 45, but you can have the body of a 35 year old or a 55 year old...

How does the program work:
We'll move through each of these topics and you'll have the opportunity to adjust your choices accordingly. We'll record all your ideas so you have all the information you need at your finger tips. And the best part is...each choice you make will start turning back the aging process from the inside out.

This program is in 2 parts
Part one - 5 steps to decrease your body biomarkers  

  1. Choose a balanced diet                                                
  2. Learn about the food signatures
  3. Know about what Hara Hachi Bu means to you
  4. Focus on the Essentials: sunshine, water & air 
  5. Best of all - move your body
Part two - 5 steps to decrease your mind biomarkers  

  1. Create mindfulness
  2. Bind to your tribe
  3. Belong to a group
  4. Form positive connections
  5. Embrace spirituality
You can turn back the clock, feel good and look great just from reaching for the right foods, a few lifestyle changes and looking into your mindset.  Let me show you how with the Young Within Program.



Moods and Foods

Reach for the right foods - feel great!

Foggy brain?
Help to find your way through the fog by dumping sugar from your diet.  Replace it with loads of green things - salads and vegetables e.g. spinach, broccoli, watercress, celery.

Find yourself tired?
It's going to help you to balance out your blood sugars.  Increase the protein you are eating, avoid refined carbohydrates, switch to whole grains and low GI fruit and vegetables. e.g. sweet potato, raw carrots, apples, pears or kiwi fruit

Feeling down?
Look for foods with lots of B vitamins. B vitamins are your 'get up and go' vitamin that nourishes the nervous system. Look for lean meat, seafood, broccoli, spinach & citrus fruits. Check that you are not drinking any soft drinks or cordials and up the filtered water.

One of those stressy weeks?
Grab the walnuts.  Only 9 walnuts or a teaspoon of walnut oil is enough to make a difference.  It could help your body handle stress better.  Other foods to munch on a busy week are flaxseeds, other nuts and cold pressed oils.e.g. olive or sunflower.

Guys...how many times do you wee during the night?

There is hope that you could get a whole nights sleep or at least less interruptions.  There is a herb called Pygeum Africanum that is not well known outside the herbal world.   When the clinical studies where done on this herb there was a moderately large improvement in urologic symptoms compared to placebo.  Nocturia was decreased by 19%, residual urine volume reduced by 24%, while peak urine flow increased by 23%. All of these are good things.
The conclusion from the studies is that overall this herb may improve the symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) by modulating bladder contractility, reducing inflammation, inhibiting fibroblast production, decreasing leukotriene production and improving secretory activity of prostate epithelium.
Bioceuticals have cleverly combined Pygeum with Rye Grass and Beta-sitosterols in their new Prostacare tablet.  This is designed to support prostate health and hopefully help you guys have a good nights sleep.

Confidence in Health

Do you know the right decision to make but continuously end up doing the opposite?
Do you run out of time for health?
Do you feel silly even starting on a health plan?
Is this to do with confidence? Confidence with yourself .
Here is a simple trick you can do anywhere to build confidence in your self and your health decisions.

Imagine that you are really tall. And I mean really tall, at least 7 metres tall.  Then visualise yourself being made of solid diamond.  Inhale a nice deep breath and fell your chest expand.  If you are increasing your confidence to deal with indecision over a health event that was bothering you, then imagine how insignificant it is compared to your strength and power. You could swat it away like a fly if you wanted to. The tiny squeaky voice can barely reach your ears and your booming confidence in your health blows it away like a tornado.
Now imagine popping a bright red cape over your shoulders and feel it dragging along the floor behind you.  Take confident strides like a roman emperor and imagine a fanfare of trumpets as you announce your new health strategy.

You can use this strategy anywhere to switch on your confidence when ever you need it and it instantly transforms your demeanor .  Use it to support your health decisions.

Did you know 50% of people revert back to old habits within 3 weeks of finishing a diet? The key to sustainability is learning about how to change your own mindset forever. Imagine making good choices all the time rather than being on a diet or off a diet. To find out more click below

Are your lungs behaving poorly? Sinusitis?


For centuries, Eastern Europeans have sat in natural salt caves to help relieve respiratory, circulatory and skin ailments and stress.


Salt Therapy, like that provided at Salt Caves, is a form of inhalation therapy that is used to provide a natural
allergy treatment to clear the airways of mucus build up and reduce triggered by allergies to dust, pollen or pollution. The inhaled microscopic salt aerosol draws the mucus and fluid build up out of the nasal passage, reducing the swelling and pain. The minerals within salt, namely magnesium and potassium and known to help with inflammation and assist with breaking down mucus build up. Salt therapy will also assist in protecting you against further sinus infections as it kills harmful bacteria in the airways and boosts your immune system.

Now instead of heading off to Europe to find a salt cave you can do it in your own home with a Salt Air Pod.  This is an Ultrasonic Salinizer. Secret Squirrel ™ Salt Air Pod is an ultrasonic particle dispenser that uses ultrasonic frequency vibration technology to transform a saline solution into a salt aerosol for the indoor air. The device is not a humidifier, as it is placing an insignificant amount of humidity into your room. It is a unique product! Secret Squirrel™ Salt Air Pod comes with an instruction manual and a supply of pharmaceutical grade natural Himalayan rock salt for the saline solution. Easy to use - just plug in 100% natural and completely safe 12 month Warranty - complies with all Australian standards.

Salt Air Pod......Buy one now and enjoy having your full lung capacity.

18 year old with a Flair up of Eczema

What would I do?
 I would advise a 4 prong approach.  Let's consider nutrition, mindset, supplements
and topical applications.
Nutrition.  I like to take out sugar, dairy, wheat and any junk foods.  This may be a big ask for a teenager but it does go a long way with getting the inflammation under control.  Replace with loads of vegetables, some fruit and a good sized protein at each meal. Lots of essential fatty acids help too.  This includes, fish, nuts, olive oil and eggs.  Add a tablespoon flaxseed per day.  The next step after this is to consider allergy testing.
Mindset. Nobody said being a teenager is easy and there are a lot of things that create stress.  This needs to be balanced with a regular d-stress program.  A half an hour a day doing something relaxing (not TV or screens).  Try walking, reading, meditating or listening to music.
Supplements. Flair ups with eczema have a lot to do with what is happening in the gut walls so I'd always start with a good probiotic.  Inner Health have a product called Eczema Relief which I recommend.  Bioceuticals Ultra Clean Fish oil capsules will help reduce the inflammation.
Topical.  Stop all skin cleansers, soaps and any other skin applications.  Have not too hot showers.  Use MooGOO wash followed by MooGoo eczema cream.  On the really bad bits use cortisone creams for a few days to get it under control then go back to MooGoo.  If you cannot find MooGoo, my second favorite is Trixera in the french Avene range.
