NOURISH: 4 ELIXIR RECIPES

What is an elixir? I like to think of it as a healing beverage. It’s different to a smoothie, different to a juice, and usually with ingredients that can boost our immune system, help balance hormones and blood sugar, heal leaky gut, and can flood us with antioxidants, just to name a few. And I love them. They are super easy to make, you just need a few ingredients that you may not have tried before. But never fear, I have explained them all below, and you will find them all at great health food stores.

UPGRADES :: TELL ME WHAT YOU NEED

PHOTO TAKEN FROM TONE IT UP - THATS ME FRONT + CENTRE IN PURPLE AND GREEN

Hey sexy legs!

Today I really want to touch on Upgrades.

Upgrades. Upgrades. Upgrades.

This is what I am all about lately ~ quite fitting considering my clients are going through the same vibes right now; upgrading their diet, their water intake, their movement, health, energy, their thoughts, beliefs and more.

I'm a firm believer that your health is the supporting role to living an incredible, abundant, beautiful life.

DO YOU WANT TO UPGRADE YOUR HEALTH + WELLBEING TO NEW HEIGHTS FOR THE HOLIDAYS?

Do you want BOUNDLESS ENERGY in time for Summer? To actually WANT to get out of bed and start your day as the sun rises and the world awakens?

Have you tried everything to lose weight and feel better, but nothing has worked? Or have you had success, only to gain it all back again?

As someone who had been yo-yo dieting for years, following strict food plans, and then falling into the dark hole of chronic fatigue, I now know what it takes to lose weight for good, and have energy to do all the things you love in life (not just sleeping-in on weekends).

NOURISH: MY NEW LIVER PATE RECIPE

If you had told me 3 years ago I would creating and re-creating recipes using chicken livers, I would have laughed in your face. Strange how to world works isn't it? Well, here I am, and doing just that.

SUNDAY : THE PALEO CHALLENGE PART 2

Pardon my French, but I LOVE SHIT LIKE THIS!!! I was so excite to watch the second instalment of Mike Willisee's experiment following a Paleo diet on Channel Seven's Sunday over the weekend. FINALLY someone on national television says it out loud - that the Dieticians Association is sponsored by multi national companions (making shit fake foods that will kill us) which literally puts them in a conflict of interest... So you be the judge as to whether or not you'd like to listen to what they are telling you to eat.

SUNDAY : THE PALEO CHALLENGE

In case you missed it, last night on Sunday there was a segment called The Paleo Challenge. Reporter Mike Willesee, who was questioning Pete Evans about the paleo style of eating, was skeptical, unconvinced, and unsure about the whole paleo concept and exactly what benefits it heralded, given that he had also seen some research say that it could be in fact dangerous.

But then the plot twist happened, and Mike decided to undertake a 10-week Paleo diet program to test the claims by advocate Pete Evans.

CELEBRATING MY 30TH BIRTHDAY

Last week I celebrated my 30th birthday. I didn't want anything fancy. My biggest wish was to see my mum, and my two sisters (...or be gifted a one way ticket to California... or Rome... and with Brocky of course). 

Well... no travel plans as such but mum and my little sis both made it up (big sis has a totally valid excuse tho - she had just flown to Europe! Forgiven! I would have done the same).

NOURISH: CREAMY QUINOA PORRIDGE

Most of us are familiar with quinoa these days as it's been touted far and wide as an alternative to rice for those who want to follow a grain free diet, as quinoa – pronounced keen-wa – is actually a South American seed, even though it cooks and tastes just like a grain; which is why it is so popular in paleo, gluten free and vegan lifestyles.
