My nightcap 💤😇 Herbal tea from mint leaves picked by moonlight, inspirational words and my favourite things all me - sets the scene for a good nights sleep.

Quality sleep depends on ‘Sleep hygiene’ - that is how your daytime habits affect how well you sleep at night and the process of setting the scene for the rest we all need.

Sleep is one of the 5 pillars of health and wellness I help my clients to support. Along with nutrition, exercise, time in nature and community - these are not just boring basics - they are essential self care practices. From there, so many complaints just fall away and those that don’t we can focus on and problem solve better.

Fruit can be both delicious and fascinating. A humble fruit like the plum contains a collection of plant compounds that have a beautiful wisdom in their design. The fibre and polyphenols interact with our gut microbiome and can have a myriad of health benefits. Especially for women looking for hormone balance and menopause harmony, I recommend you look at these fruits in their fresh and dried forms. There is research on prune intake… One randomized controlled trial found that women who consumed dried plums daily for 12 months experienced favorable changes in bone mineral density compared with the control group. From plum to prunes… what a wonderful way to extend the season and gut, hormone and bone health benefits of plums. Have a look at the PRUNE STUDY if you are a geek like me 🧐 https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35798020/

These grapes from and their juice were exceptional and unusual on so many levels… I need to honour them 🍇🙏😇

It is such a pleasure (and mutual nourishment) to volunteer at this food forest 💜

Picked from the vine and within minutes the grapes are on the plate and directly to the juicer - bursting with vitality you can taste and feel ✨

Organic and locally grown right here in The Netherlands - yes grapes definitely CAN grow here!

Look at the deep purple colour of their dark skins. These are rich in phytonutrients 💜🩺🖤🩺-particularly polyphenols which concentrate in their skins and seeds and give us huge health benefits.

💜Anthocyanins fight cellular stress
💜Resveratrol aids heart health and is anti-aging
💜Catechin and Epicatechin offers antioxidant and antimicrobial benefits
💜Quercetin reduces inflammation

It is super nice when these phytonutrients don’t come hand in hand with a load of toxins don’t you think?

I stopped buying conventionally grown grapes when I found out how heavily laden with pesticides they were. On the rare occasion when I found organic grapes on the store and I treated them like treasure for my kids and their lunch boxes. (I have only recently found and enjoyed beautiful organic and in season grapes from Spain.)

I also lately spotted two fully laden vines on my neighbourhood walks. So I am now very inspired to grow my own 😉 According to PAN, after citrus and strawberries, grapes are the third ‘dirtiest’ fruit containing on average 3.6 pesticide residues.

Grapes aren’t getting cleaner! Unless you buy organic or grow your own 😉

If you are wondering what’s so bad about eating pesticide laden produce and you would like to be healthier, then you have better subscribe to my newsletter 😆

I have an old blog in the subject too 🍓

My new passion plant ... passionflower!

Passionflower is anti anxiety and calming and a wonderful support plant for highly sensitive people (like me) who are easily and deeply impacted by the world and stress.

My first experience with passionflower was at the naive age of 19 after I was unceremoniously dumped by a boy and completely distraught. A friend and fellow homeopathy student whose parents were herbalists gave me herbal tablets made from passionflower which comforted me immensely and helped me in regaining my emotional balance (and dignity). I still remember to this day how dramatically steadying it felt (together with the homeopathic remedy, Ignatia amara).

But evidently Passionflower works too well - it has actually been banned as a herbal supplement in many countries. In fact shortly after my personal experience with passionflower it was banned in South Africa. But here in the EU I have found it again.
