Spring/winter/spring There’s something in the air. It might be spring but that all depends what day it is! In NSW we’ve had both a fresh flurry of snow and bushfires, in different parts of the State. But despite the crazy weather, there’s a noticeable shift here...

As we transition from winter to spring, salads return to my table. While the weather is still a little cool, I like to include a cooked component to makes them easier to digest. My transitional season salads tend to include roasted or blanched vegetables and/or cooked grain...

Spring is a time of creativity, new beginnings and change. Like a butterfly emerging from a chrysalis, we’re back in the world with a bang after the darkness of winter. In the Southern Hemisphere, September begins the increasingly hectic sprint to Christmas. As the season...

I got an overwhelming response, to an impromptu video I recently shared on Facebook. Anxiety is a common and sometimes crippling condition. But I’m surprised by the number of clients who don’t consciously realise they’re anxious, until I ask them one question....

Herbs are back! As winter throws us yet another round of lingering coughs and pesky infections, it’s a relief to be able to prescribe liquid herbs for my online naturopathic clients (not just locals who see me in my Sydney clinic). I’m delighted to have found an affordable,...

This is a handy store cupboard favourite. With a couple of whizzes in a food processor it makes a great dip, or tasty topping for bruschetta. Artichokes are also one our most liver-friendly herbs, but this dip is so tasty you’d never guess it was good for you. Artichoke...

It’s delightful to be home. My feet are back on the ground and I’m hanging out for some hygge. It’s been a delightful few months of flying around the globe, with a family holiday in Europe and our practitioner intensive in Bali. After all the busy-ness I created my own solo...
