Divine by Therese Kerr – Fresh Breath Mouth Spray & Mouth Rinse

I’ve never been a fan of traditional mouth wash. It burns my mouth and it tastes like crap.  So admittedly, I never used it regularly … until now. According to health warrior David ‘Avocado’ Wolfe, did you know that most non-organic mouth washes on the market may contain potentially harmful toxins and chemicals such as: ❗️Chlorhexidine ❗️Alcohol ❗️Hexetidine (oraldene) ❗️Methyl Salicylate ❗️Benzalkonium Chloride The above may cause serious conditions with ongoing use: increased blood pressure, serious heart conditions, drying out…

Be more of you.

I adore this saying and Wayne Dyer. I’ve watched his movies and listened to his mesmerizing voice meditations over and over. I think I stick with him because he simplifies life for me through his insights. When I heard this quote in his movie, The Shift, (highly recommend!), I thought about how it’s so easy to get stuck in the rat race, doing the same thing, day in, day out. Not living your song. You keep doing it, deep inside…

Sanitarium Weet-Bix for Kids

Have you ever considered buying kid’s foods for adults to eat as they have less additives? I recently came across Weet-Bix for Kids once my little Juliet started eating solids. After a closer look, I noticed that the adult version contains salt which isn’t in the kids’ version. I never really understood why salt needed to be added to an adult breakfast cereal. It just doesn’t make sense to me. And whilst I’m not altogether happy either one contains sugar,…

Sustainable Seafood – where does your fish come from?

Are you a seafood lover? 🐟 Yep, me too. My mum’s side of the family comes from a small Italian fishing village, so you could say the sea and eating seafood is in our blood. On our recent trip away, we were lucky to enjoy a beautiful seafood platter caught by local fisherman delivered to our door. So yum! They promoted the support of locally-caught fish in their marketing, and being an ex-corporate marketer, I always pay attention to the…

Live your best life now.

Ever been in an earthquake? Neither had we, until a few days ago. And what a crazy, shaky experience it was! It was around 2.30pm on Hamilton Island and I was just finishing up giving Juliet a leisurely late lunch in our 11th floor apartment when everything started shaking. And I mean everything. At first it was a slow rumble and then it built in momentum, to the point that the hanging light shade was swinging side to side and…

Fill your mind with positive lessons

Ever failed at something? I don’t know about you guys, but I have failed heaps of times. But I’ve also tried a lot, too. Relationships, businesses, jobs, friendships, cooking, exercise, smoking, drinking, eating healthy – these are just some of the things I’ve tried, failed at, learnt a lesson from and then tried again. We’re all not perfect, we make mistakes, but the important thing is that we give things a go and always, always look for the lesson. There…

Soothe your babies bottom with Aromababy Barrier Balm

When I had a baby recently, I became even more conscious about what products I would use on my precious little one to get her started in life in the healthiest possibly way. There is a plethora of baby products on the market, especially for nappy creams; many of them chemically based – containing Benzyl Benzoate, Benzyl Alcohol, Propylene Glycol, Linalyl Acetate to name a few. The MSDS’ (material safety data sheets) for these ingredients state to varying degrees that…

Doctor, Doctor, give me the news.

Doctor doctor give me the news…… Yep, we all go to them for much needed answers and advice and doctors absolutely have their place in our modern world. However, I like to think that before we head to the waiting rooms of our doctor’s clinic, we might stop to try and work things out ourselves first. After all, we do understand our bodies best, because they are ours. But more often than not, we are not paying attention to the…
