CONFESSION time: Not so long ago, I opened my bathroom cabinet and took a long, hard look at the bottles of moisturisers, shampoos, face mists and body lotions. Could I possibly need all this stuff? Now I’m the girl who writes on the blank side of used printer paper, air-dries her clothes and takes her own bamboo bags when going food shopping. So why this blind spot with beauty products? Turns out I’m not alone – according to one survey, women have anywhere between 20 and 30 personal care and make-up products in their skin and haircare arsenal. And while nearly all the respondents said they recycle, fewer than one-third said they actually considered the amount of product they use and the type of packaging the product came in before buying…

Strive for life

WHAT if you have gone through so many challenging times that it’s almost obvious that life is hard? How do you find the resilience, and the hope, to continue? Amy Molloy is the author of the recently published ‘The World is a Nice Place.’ And she is well-equipped to talk about this topic: she’s survived anorexia, was widowed at 23, divorced her second husband in her late 20s, married for the third time and had two babies. And she’s only in her early 30s. So, how does someone who’s been through so much have such faith and hope, and truly believe that the world is a nice place? Amy Taylor-Kabbaz spoke with Amy about life after tragedy, and what makes some of us thrive despite the hardest lessons. You have been…

Strive for life

Obstacles to opportunities

Don’t let the worst day of your life be your greatest achievement. Over the years, I’ve interviewed so many amazing people who turned their toughest moments into triggers for their greatest achievements: people who went on to found not-for-profits, or studied social work to help young teenage girls with eating disorders, or fostered children in trouble. I have realised that these people did not let that tragic thing that happened to them become the biggest part of their life. I struggled with this at first after my husband died. I admit that I became selfish, and did what I wanted, because in my mind, I’d lost ‘the one’ and had nursed him to his death, so now what was the point of anything? I told my best friend that I would…

Play in the sand

Walking or running on sand stimulates the 200,000-plus nerve endings on the soles of the feet and engages muscles that don’t activate when wearing shoes on stable ground. This helps plantar fasciitis and mimics a reflexology session. Scientists found that sand exercise takes 250% more energy than on a hard surface. Soft sand is more challenging than hard sand. Walking barefoot also clears electromagnetic frequencies from our electrically overwhelmed bodies. To deeply ground yourself and increase your metabolism, try the Amazonian shamanic ritual of a sand grave. Apparently burying your body in sand tricks the brain into thinking that you also weigh more, increasing your metabolism. For a mindful meditation, try sand sculpting or writing.…

Y OU pad barefoot onto soft, warm sand, inhale the salty air, listen to the gentle waves, and gaze at the endless azure horizon. A tonic trip to the seaside has been prescribed by physicians since before modern medicine’s founder Hippocrates coined the term thalassotherapy. The four element energies of sand, sea, sun and sky envelop all in a healing experience. And with over 620,000 kilometres of coastline on earth, there’s room for everyone to reap the rewards of coastal therapy for free. Beach benefits Sand: From crunchy breadcrumbs to fine white dust, its consistency varies but its qualities are consistent. Sand is a silica-rich exfoliant. While a barefoot beach walk gives a smoothing pedicure, Brazilians buff their whole body with wet sand for skin like a luminous shell. Try this by…

Blissful beach meditation

1 Enjoy a slow barefoot walk by the shore. 2 Looking down while feeling the earth, say “sand.” 3 Look to the side seeing water, and say “sea.” 4 Look up and say “sky.” 5 Look to the other side and say “mountains.” 6 Look at your body and say “me.” 7 For a minute while walking recite this smooth cyclical chant “sand, sea, sky, mountains, me.” 8 Stand by the shore with feet hip-width apart and knees slightly bent to practise ocean breathing (Ujjayi). As the wave swells towards you, inhale with the your throat slightly closed like a gentle snore. Rock back on your feet and spread your open palmed arms out to the side like wings. As the wave rolls away sway forward, exhale out the mouth and sweep your arms forward into heart…

Carbs: The good, the bad, and the ugly

SEVERAL popular recent diet movements have promoted the belief that ‘carbs’ are the primary driving factor behind Australia’s ever-growing obesity crisis. This trend is comparable to the low-fat movement of the 1980s, which painted dietary fats as the culprit behind cardiovascular disease, and subsequently led to a decrease in consumption of natural fats, and sprouted a high science industry producing ‘Frankenfood’ creations like margarine and low-fat salad dressings. With each swing of the pendulum, we are moving further away from a simple wholefoods diet, one that our bodies - and the vast colonies of bacteria contained within them - are genetically programmed to thrive on. So, are carbs good for you, or bad? The truth lies somewhere in between and depends on which type of carbs you choose. Know your carbs Carbohydrates…

Microbiome magic

Our gut contains trillions of bacteria that have evolved with us since the dawn of time. Not only do they help us break down fibres from food we eat to extract every available nutrient, they also play an important role in regulating the immune system, producing vitamins, and influencing brain health. Beneficial bacteria in the gut rely on a fibre-rich diet to maintain their balance and diversity, as well as promote production of short chain fatty acids, including butyrate which acts as fuel to ensure the healthy function of the cells lining the gut. This is one of the ways that a high fibre diet helps to protect us against bowel cancer.…

Festive season SOS

HERB teas are a wonderful way to soothe and nourish your mind and body. Try kava for tension and anxiety that prevents sleep; chamomile for jangled nerves and exhaustion; oats for insomnia; and valerian to relax you when you're feeling wired and uptight. Catnip isn't just for kitties, either – it contains nepetalactones, which settle restlessness and calm anxiety. Essential oils are also excellent for countering seasonal stress, especially chamomile, clary sage, geranium, lavender, melissa, neroli, rose, and ylang ylang. Add six drops to warm bathwater, or inhale deeply from the bottle. tomato juice the morning after – the natural sugars in the fruit juice help the body metabolise alcohol faster. Ensure you eat before drinking alcohol, because alcohol is absorbed more slowly on a full stomach. Thiamine and vitamin…

Love your liver

If Liver blood is deficient, leafy greens and blood tonics like beetroot and red meat will be beneficial. IN both Western and Chinese medicine, the liver is considered one of our most important organs. In Western physiology, the liver has a number intricate functions, including processing and filtering blood and involvement in digestion, hormone production, metabolism and nutrient processing. In traditional Chinese medicine, the Liver's main functions are to store the blood and control the free flow of Qi (energy). The blood is considered a nourishing and moistening substance in Chinese medicine, and a lack of Liver blood may exhibit as low energy, lack of vitality or dryness and may be particularly evident in areas associated with Liver: the eyes, sinews, nails, skin and hair. A deficiency of Liver blood may…

Cooling summer yoga

Padangusthasana Active yet cooling, this calms the nervous system and brain. Great for stimulating the digestive fire and lymphatic system. Begin standing, with feet sitting-bone distance apart. Fold torso forward, bending the knees if needed, and hook your index and middle fingers onto your big toes. Actively, but not aggressively, draw the crown of head and your side chest downward - rather than forcing inward. Keep neck relaxed and breathe into the side body. Hold for approximately 60 seconds, or longer if it feels OK. Parsvottanasana A mild challenge for your balance, this hamstring opener is another forward fold that promotes a calm mind and body. Begin standing, feet together and hands on waist. Take a long step back with your right foot, grounding the heel by turning the foot out subtly. Invite the right…

Second-hand style

IF you're a brand junkie, search your favourite labels, styles, and size with ease on eBay and Gumtree. Love vintage? Try Etsy, or search vintage sellers on Instagram and Facebook. Check out garage sales or the recycle markets at your local landfill centre – the latter are the most budget-friendly, because sellers don't have the overheads that bricks-and-mortar stores have. Trash-and-treasure markets and clothing swaps can yield hidden gems: check your council website.

CONGRATULATIONS!

Dating ADD is common in this age of apps and endless temptations. Many escape reality by pursuing the fantasy of a fairytale romance, selling themselves with a false façade. The fallacy that the grass is always greener prevents people from realising the grass is actually greenest where we water it. Only when we take time to tend to ourselves and our beloved will we see a relationship blossom. Give your garden a good chance to flourish by focusing on the one you’re with and be someone they can enjoy being with. Agree preemptively to discuss issues which will inevitably arise with non-violent communication (see www.cnvc.org). Express deal breakers, such as abuse, addictions, dishonestly, infidelity and other issues that would sever a connection. Ensure you have mutual respect, similar values and…

BEFORE we know what we want and need in a relationship we need to know ourselves. A good relationship with ourselves makes us good company. Do you love yourself as much as you want someone to love you? Do you nurture yourself with encouraging words, empowering actions and self-care routines? If you’re self-critical you’ll find yourself being critical of others, which crucifies connections. Bad relationships are external representations of our inner struggles. Focus on your good qualities and work on what you want to improve. Only you can complete yourself, and then you’ll find someone to complement your content vibration. How could you be like the person you’d like to be with? How would you develop physically, materially, emotionally, spiritually? If you can’t love yourself, the love you can accept from…

Stop smoking “This is more effective than any product you can buy off the shelf,” says Natalie Clays. “The lack of oxygen in your blood, depleted vitamins, and a weakened immune system will cause poor sleep, skin dehydration, wrinkles and dull skin, stained teeth and fingers, yellow eyes and under-eye bags, plus psoriasis, acne, dermatitis, eczema, dry brittle hair, or baldness in men.

Monitoring moles

The outdoor Aussie lifestyle and high UV levels means we have one of the highest rates of skin cancer in the world. At least 2 in 3 Australians will be diagnosed with some form of skin cancer before age 70. Those considered high risk have multiple moles/freckles, fair skin that burns easily, light-coloured eyes, sun damage, a family history of skin cancer and extensive sun or solarium exposure. Non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) is the most common cancer in Australia and can be treated in doctors’ surgeries or naturally with black salve. Melanoma is the most dangerous form of skin cancer and has three types -nodular melanoma, basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. Over 9% of melanoma cases are diagnosed in people aged under 40 years old, 11% in those aged…

Natural oils with a high SPF include carrot seed oil (35-40) and red raspberry seed oil (25-60.) IT’S no wonder all ancient cultures worshipped the sun in some form. The sun gives us light and heat to cultivate crops for energy. Without sufficient sun, our moods darken and diseases increase. The sun triggers serotonin which gives calm clarity and releases melatonin for sleep. Seasonal affective disorder (SAD) can set in without sunlight. Sunshine also supports vitamin D production which is vital for vision, healthy bones, type 2 diabetes management, and immunity. A little sun is also considered a cancer preventive as those living in low daylight areas are more prone to cancers of the colon, kidney, ovaries, pancreas and prostate. Skin conditions like acne, eczema, jaundice and psoriasis often benefit from sunbathing…

Summer bummer #1: Excess oil Hot weather can make skin greasy and more prone to break-outs, especially if you are continually wearing sunscreen and make-up. A clarifying cleanser doesn't strip skin of natural sebum, but it will have a more astringent effect, and thus keep oil production in check. Swap to a lightweight gel moisturiser, and use oil-absorbing mineral make-up with ingredients that give skin a matte finish, such as bamboo and linseed. Try: A'kin Oil Control Clarifying Cleansing Mousse ($14.95, from Priceline). Summer bummer #2: Pigmentation The sun's rays can cause uneven skin tone and hyperpigmentation. Always use face and skincare products that contain sunscreen, and choose natural sunscreen products for all-over body use that provide skin benefits in addition to UVA and UVB protection, such as Australian native plant extracts, which…

Are you married? Turns out, whether you are or not can influence your skin health; specifically, a study published in JAMA Dermatology shows that melanoma patients who are married tend to be diagnosed at earlier, more treatable stages. Just why it makes such a difference is not clear, but it’s likely that a spouse would play a large role in urging their partner to get a suspicious-looking mole checked out. Green queen: Hillary Wilcox • What is your prime focus with health? As a naturopath, I believe education comes first. I aim to understand how a patient has reached this point in their journey, and then to empower them with knowledge that will have a positive impact on their health. • What inspired MAAEMO?

A very eco-friendly Christmas

IF everyone on the planet wanted to live the lifestyle of the average Australian, we would need almost four earths to support it. Here are seven ideas to help you and your family be more ecofriendly this season, and every season after. 1. Christmas cards Traditions come and go, and this one may have passed its use by date. The first Christmas card was sent in London in 1843. Fast forward to 2018 and we’re sending billions of Christmas cards around the globe each year, most of which end up in landfill. “Instead of cards, send a Christmas photo, because they’re much less likely to be thrown away,” says Dr Trevor Thornton, waste management expert at Deakin University. “At the very least, avoid cards with flashing lights and songs.
