If I were to ask you 'what is wealth?', what would be your answer?

• A stash of cash in the bank?
• Good friends and a happy family?
• A healthy retirement fund?
• Vibrant health?
• A combination of all of these, or perhaps something else?

The reality is, we all have our own definition of wealth, which will largely be the result of our cultural conditioning and personal life experiences, and in this short musing I'd like to share my take on this topic.

Over the past couple of months I've been watching quite a few 'crytpo' videos in an effort to up-educate myself on this subject matter. It's not something I'm particularly interested in, but I feel it's important to learn so I can make informed choices. 

One of the things I notice, is that despite the many opportunities this new type of 'banking' can offer, especially to many underprivileged people, there is one common perspective / goal for many people in the crypto space: to make a profit. 

You may or may not know that currently the...

"It's in our iron grip to control nature, that she rejects us completely".

In this interview (the snippet video above is from the full episode 4 of the documentary series) this doctor explains how our immune system is part of the wider eco-system of the world... of nature.

If we want to stay healthy, we have to take into account that we are not separate from our environment or nature. 

Even though this information has been known for 30 years, it has not been revealed to most people. We have been kept in the dark, because it's not 'economical' (for a certain group of people) to have a 'health system' - instead we have been maintaining and perpetuating a 'dis-ease' system. 

In order to understand human health, we must understand the much bigger picture of how life works: we must understand our place in nature, because we are PART of nature, not separate from it. 

I highly recommend you watch this series, which is running live - free of charge - for 9 days. If you miss the live v...

Do you know how many slaves have helped produce the products you use or consume? Are you up to speed with your 'modern slavery footprint'?

Most of us are familiar with the terms 'carbon footprint', 'sustainability', 'climate change'.

But are you up to speed with your 'modern slavery footprint'?

I attended a pretty mind-opening webinar recently on MODERN SLAVERY hosted by AIMA (the Australasian Integrative Medical Association) and The Blackmores Group Australia.

The purpose of the webinar was to bring more AWARENESS to the scale and consequences of modern slavery, with reference in particular to how the health and nutritional products we purchase track back to any slavery involved in their production. 

Do you know how many slaves have helped produce the products you use or consume?

Modern slavery is a very real thing which many of us, particularly in the western world, are fairly oblivious to. We may have heard of child labour and human trafficking, but haven't really stopped ...

As the saying goes, the only constant is change.

Right now we are experiencing enormous change in the world.

And no-where in the world is this change bigger than in healthcare.

Actually, this change has been going on for decades behind the scenes, but not everyone has been aware of it.

However, with more and more restrictions coming into healthcare, including patients even being refused access to dentists and doctors in some countries*, now more than ever it is essential we learn how to take care of our own health and wellbeing.

The good news, we have a lot more power to take control of our health than we have been taught.

I've been fortunate to learn this due to my own journey to find answers to chronic illness which doctors said they couldn't help me with.

This led me to search out alternative therapies and solutions, finally leading me to solutions.

Lifestyle Medicine is one of those solutions, and is a big part of my clinical practice with clients.

When the former CEO of The Permanente Medical Group (managing 10,000 physicians, 38,000 staff with 5 million Kaiser Permanente members over 20 years), professor at Stanford University School of Medicine and the Stanford Graduate School of Business eloquently and passionately talks, everyone better listen.

He addressed the challenges in healthcare but more importantly, he's extremely passionate about transforming the American healthcare system and helping people understand the consequences of their medical decisions. 

He illuminated the complex and intimidating world of medicine, the unwillingness to make prevention a cornerstone of care.

Dr. Pearl also offered a clear plan to save American (and global) healthcare.

The unspoken, shocking truth about healthcare - a LIVE interview with Robert Pearl MD:

When the former CEO of The Permanente Medical Group (managing 10,000 physicians, 38,000 staff with 5 million Kaiser Permanente members over 20 years) takes a stand like this, it might pay to listen. 

Our healthcare system is in chaos, disintegrating and crumbling, because it's time for something new... and better.

There are no coincidences, right?

It's interesting that just when the non-profit 2021 Lifestyle Medicine Summit - a free global live streaming event - is being launched, I've also noticed an increase in news coverage about the potential benefits of Lifestyle Medicine, not just for our individual health, but for healthcare in general.

Many of us feel frustrated and want evidence-based chronic disease solutions.

Lifestyle Medicine is a scientific approach to preventing and treating chronic illness by utilizing comprehensive lifestyle interventions such as nutrition, physical activity, stress reduction and social support.

Tackle Work Stress

Chronic stress has an incredibly damaging effect on our whole-body health. While short bouts of acute stress are normal and natural, feeling stressed for days on end can contribute to high blood pressure, insomnia, inflammation, muscle tension, and other symptoms of chronic disease. Work is one of the most common sources of chronic stress. If your job is starting to wear on your mind and body, it might be time for a career change. It’s always possi...
