Save our Supplements

It appears hard to believe that by 2010 health food supplements that we currently take for granted may no longer be widely available to us. Watch the video and make your own mind up!

What's your Dosha?

June see the start of the Pitta season

The Pitta Dosha is the Fire principle in Ayurveda. Pitta increases during the summer months and if it gets unbalanced it can lead to irritability, road rage, skin rashes & indigestion. During this period favour local organically grown seasonally available foods. Swimming is a great exercise and at any time of year but especially during the Pitta season. (note - always contact your health care professional before commencing an exercise regime)

Karma

Karma
Karma is the principle of cause and effect. It’s summarized simply by the proverb “As we sow, so shall we reap.” If we plant seeds of health, harmony and abundance, we’ll ultimately receive these beneficial fruits. On the other hand, if we sow seeds of anger, greed or fear, such will be our harvest. - Source The Chopra Center Web Site

Oh No - Does this mean I've to wear Moses Saddles!

I sometimes find it funny when people think to living an Ayurvedic lifestyle involves locking themselves away from 'the real world' to live like a white bearded guru tucked away in a mountain cave.

If I'm being honest when I first started shifting my awareness to find a deeper meaning to my life, my own reaction was similar and I lived in terror of having to swap my skinny high heels for a practical pair of Moses sandles - it was all about the shoes.

The Perfect Health program teaches ways to optimise your health and well being - how much you want to apply to your life is, of course, entirely your choice. Some people, dive head first into it, others - myself included, adapt a few of the principles at a time. For me, the well-being I felt from just making a few small changes to my daily life encouraged me to continue making more awarness based decisions. What a wonderful feeling it is to take control of your own well being. Wasn't it Einstein who said - 'The Definition of Madness - doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result' .....

Knowledge is a great thing - applying it to our lives is our own choice. The key is to live a balanced healthy life and for me that continues to include 'having the craic' and plenty of belly laughs - and no I'm not living in a cave in Tibet and yes I still wear the high heels - but perhaps just not every day. It's all about balance - stillettos optional.
