A gorgeous friend told me about this poem and so today I watched it on youtube. You may have already seen it but it holds such an important message. Even though I use the web to communicate with you all, it is important to look up from our screens and join the world. It is also …
Sleeping Beauty
I have to say I am a massive advocate for sleep. Getting a good night's sleep is one of the most important things you can do for your overall health and well-being. Adequate sleep gives your body time and energy to recover from the day's stresses, and helps you to stay sharp and focused throughout …
Easter Treats
Happy Easter to everyone. Today I read this quote from one of my favourite authors. If you’re going to eat healthily do it because you love your life and want to live for a long time. Do it for those reasons. As opposed to doing it out of a fear of illness. Every choice I used …
