If you feel bloated quite often, your body might be trying to tell you something…

A little bloating now and then can be normal, but if it’s happening regularly, it’s often because of:

✖️poor digestion or low stomach acid
✖️a lack of digestive enzymes
✖️gut imbalances
✖️food sensitivities or intolerances
✖️hormonal fluctuations (especially during luteal phase…right!?)
✖️not being used to legumes or lots of fibre
✖️not soaking or cooking legumes properly

🌿One of my go-to remedies is to drink 1 - 2 Tbsp apple c***r vinegar in water, 15-30 minutes before meals, to help support digestion 🍎✨

Save this post for later and let me know in the comments: what helps you ?

I made a little jar of sunshine…

Fermented raw honey with organic lemon, ginger, and turmeric 🍯🥰👏🍋🫚🐝✨

A naturally probiotic, gut-loving, anti-inflammatory elixir to support digestion, immunity, and overall wellbeing…and it’s super tasty too!😜

No exact measurements required. Just layers of organic lemon slices, sliced ginger and turmeric and a slow pour of raw (unpasteurised) honey.

Add a pinch of black pepper to enhance turmeric absorption, and spices like cardamom, star anise, cinnamon, cloves, etc. for different flavours.

I layered everything into a clean jar, covered it all with raw honey, and left it to sit at room temp.

Every day, I flip it or give it a little stir.
After a week or two, it becomes bubbly, tangy, alive, and full of goodness!🥰✨

I take a spoonful when I need a boost or stir it into warm herbal tea (not boiling!).

Best part…it can store up to 6 months or longer in the fridge, as honey is nraturally antimicrobial.

Would you try this?

Sending love from this beautiful little corner of the world!😘✨

A last-minute V-Day getaway to this beautiful eco-resort was just what we needed after the whirlwind of the last few months “finishing” (because is it ever really finished? 🤪🙈) our home renovations, moving in, and getting everything ready to welcome our very first, dearest guest. 🏡🥰👏

This move to Portugal has been a wild, beautiful adventure, one that’s challenged, and pretty much broken me (in a good-kinda way😅), and expanded my heart (and mind) in ways I never expected. 🤯🙌

As much as the past year has been about building a home, the real (and very messy) work has been happening within.

It’s in life’s magical little moments and glimmers that I know I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be. A quiet knowing that the universe has my back, that every challenge, every leap of faith, is leading to something even more beautiful than I could imagine, like these beautiful moments right here!🥰🙏🌈✨

Here’s to trusting the process, embracing the unfolding, and soaking in all the goodness along the way. 💛

Our home renovations are almost done (finally) so that’s why I’ve been a bit quiet lately!🏡🤪🙈🥳💃🏻👏

It’s been a bit cray-cray, but I wanted to share one of my go-to recipes for busy days like these.

This Eggplant and Chickpea Harissa curry-stew is a warming, nourishing, one-pot wonder that’s so easy to make and perfect for those evenings when you just need a comforting bowl of food.

I always keep fresh organic kale or baby spinach in the fridge to toss into meals like this. It’s an easy way to eat more greens and boost the nutritional value of your meal.

If you’ve read my article, 8 Ways to Make Cooking Easier and Faster, then you know I love using spice blends and tasty pastes/pestos to create flavour-packed meals in minutes. In this recipe, I use a delicious Harissa Paste, which adds so much depth and flavour with no added effort or time!

You can find the recipe + article in my link in bio!😘

Do your meals need a bit of magic?🌿✨

My husband and I love making this “chimichurri”…not sure if it’s the traditional way but it’s our spin on it!😜

We love it so much that we often whip up a batch at the start of the week, ensuring we can enjoy it with our salads and meals throughout!

Made with fresh parsley and coriander, zesty lime, garlic and chilli, this chimichurri not only adds a zingy freshness to your meals but also offers a bunch of health benefits.

Parsley is loaded with vitamins and minerals, supporting everything from immune function to bone health, basically a powerhouse superfood!!!🌿💪

Coriander is known for its antioxidant properties and can help detoxify the body while adding a fragrant taste…so not one for the coriander-haters!😅🙈

I love having this chimichurri with my CAULIFLOWER DETOX SALAD I shared in an earlier post. It goes really well with grilled veggies, frittatas and with meats + fish too.

With the weekend ahead of us, it’s the perfect time to prepare chimichurri for barbecues, brunches, dinner parties or make it on Sunday for the week ahead!

Tired of the viscious cycle of UTIs and antibiotics?

Before reaching for that prescription, why not try some natural remedies instead?

Antibiotics can be a quick fix, but they can really mess with your gut health, killing off the good and the bad bacteria. This can lead to a nasty cycle where you keep getting UTIs and needing more and stronger meds.

These are some of my personal tried and tested tips and remedies. Have you found any that work for you? Drop your tips in the comments! 👇

Let’s break the UTI vicious cycle!💃🏻👏

Stay tuned for the next post on how to prevent UTI’s!👀

Need a health boost or a bit of a detox?

Packed with the healing goodness of cruciferous veg, this cauliflower tabouleh salad is a fantastic way to support your body’s natural detox process.

After my breast cancer treatment, I did a 3 month raw vegan detox which involved juicing and incredible super salads like this one!

This salad is also perfect during the follicular phase of your cycle to support liver detoxification and to help balance excess estrogen…which is usually responsible for causing problems like; PMS symptoms, painful periods and heavy bleeding, etc.
