I’m Using My Time in Lockdown to Be More Mindful
This is how I am being more mindful whilst being stuck indoors during Sydney’s second lockdown – 1 year on. With so much time now being spent at home. Time, which only a month ago I was praying to have more of. I have decided to set the some ground rules within my mind, to help me achieve better mindfulness on a daily basis. Especially when you are trapped inside with the family, with no where to go. Okay, so that does sound a little melodramatic LOL. The idea of being trapped inside, when we are in fact not entirely trapped inside. We have the option to take a walk…

What I’ve Learned from COVID-19 and How I Manage my Health Better than Before
All personal feelings aside about this global pandemic called COVID-19, I have learned more about my health in the past three months, than ever before. There are so many political reasons (which I have chosen to share hear, as this is not a politically driven website) to why I think the whole pademic is a sham. But despite my opinons on the matter and its seriousness, there is no denying it does exist. An living with an elderly man (my father in law) means, I have had to make certain life and health choices which will help me stay strong and healthy during these crazy times, so I don’t get…

How I Healed Myself from Shingles
This is how I holistically healed myself without any antibiotics, from the virus Shingles. Of course, I am no medical practitioner and nor am I nutritionist, dietician, herbalist or naturopath. Healing myself holistically from Shingles was something I had to research and of course, I did get some advice from my doctor as well. Truth be told, the virus was already past 4 days into it’s cycle of the rash being present, so antibiotics would not have done anything anyway. However, if you do catch it early, you can be treated with antibiotics, which mostly just reduces the symptoms, like a slight reduction in the rash, tiredness and muscle soreness.…

OMG! I Got Shingles and This is What Happened
I couldn’t believe it. I went to bed thinking I had dermatitis and woke up to discover I had shingles. However, despite the bad news, I learned a lot about my body and my mind and the reason why I got shingles in the first place. Firstly, let’s be clear, no matter what anyone tells you – shingles is actually not contagious. Okay, well it is for anyone who has not had the chicken pox, or for anyone who is pregnant, and new borns. But not contagious like you think. The thing is, for anyone to actually contract it off you, they would need to be sharing your clothes, or…
