The Mental Game Series

Becoming healthy sounds oh so easy doesn't it? Just eat real food, exercise regularly, sleep well, have positive relationships, don't smoke, don't take drugs, don't get hit by a bus etc, etc. You get my drift. So why aren't you healthy? Sure what constitutes 'healthy' is debatable (I mean, seriously what food is really healthy!?) but even when we think we know what we have to do, we have trouble actually doing it. What people don't realise is that it needs to be a lifestyle change and the most successful way to do this is to take graded steps towards the change. And that my friend, is largely mental.

A Real Food Recipe: Grain-Free Strawberry Banana Muffins

I love going back to my parents place. It's a country side haven with a mountain view, fresh air and a huge home cinema where I obsessively watch The Mentalist series over and over. And dogs. Five of them actually. There's Che, Nicki, Macy, Harvey and Hershey. Harvey's my brothers dog, he's the most homeless looking dog I've ever seen. Hershey's mine, a gorgeous red/tan kelpie pup and it's a mini holiday for her too. But hey, fancy that, the most health conscious member of the family has the dog named after a sugar-filled treat. Yeah, fancy that.

Becoming The Organic Convert

I had a huge wakeup call early 2012. I was browsing Facebook (stalking maybe…), when I noticed a beautiful cousin of mine posting various articles and pictures of organic living. Curiosity bit me. I had a look. And I have not stopped looking.  My eyes have been opened to a whole new world that really shouldn’t have been a ‘whole new world’. Have I really been that naïve? How could I have been so unassuming and ignorant whilst living a life so unhealthy, so toxic?!

So began my journey of becoming a healthy and organic human being, just the way we were supposed to be. This blog will chart my journey through this transformation.

I sincerely hope my personal experience can help you become an ‘organic convert’ too. That’s why I will share information and advice on how to make successful changes. I will also share great resources and handy websites to guide you along the way.  I encourage you to ask questions and provide lots of feedback. I will aim to post information that you request!

So please, join me and let’s go back to how we’re supposed to be.
