Do you suffer from:

• Headaches
• Digestive issues
• Constipation / Diarrhoea
• Joint pain
• Itchy skin
• PMS
• Thrush
• Asthma
• And so on……..

These may be issues where you can’t find anything clinically wrong with you or nothing you do seems to work.  Even when you have a very clean diet, exercise and still it makes not difference.  Chances are there is a food you aren’t tolerating.  There is a test that looks at 600 different foods and whether they are compatible to your body’s cells.  This test I have found to be incredibly accurate and choosing the foods that are compatible with your body and avoiding those that aren’t, you should expect to see a shift in some of your symptoms within a week or two.

Some foods you may have always felt they just didn’t sit well in your body.  Others you may not have noticed such a pronounced effect. 

The beauty of this test is that it takes out the guess work so helps you manage your symptoms a lot faster than cutting out the more obvious foods.

When following this program, you need to cut the foods out for 6 months, over which time we can look at healing your body and then you can retest for these foods which you may then be able to eat again. 

This test is available for babies and mums if your baby is having digestive or skin issues or just not sleeping, it maybe something you are eating and they are getting through your breast milk.  It’s possible to do a test for your baby to see what that is.

For your pet we can get a small hair sample to see what foods may be creating their itchy skin, digestive issues or if they are getting fleas or worms.

After such an unpredictable 2020, we are now preparing for school to start back again.  Just prior to kids returning to school, we saw so many kids experiencing anxiety often for the first time.  This was true for kids of all ages, from primary right through to year 12.  Despite the consistency for these kids with having their education and socialisation disrupted, there are so many reasons why each of them present with anxiety.  For many it’s about adjusting from being at home 24-7 to going back to school and navigating the intellectual and social pressures of school.  Or for those kids who dislike a change in routine.  They had finally become comfortable being at home and then had to deal with a change again in going back to school.  Then for those kids who love being at home and became very comfortable with this, then going back to school was creating sleep problems, anxiety and tantrums, disrupting family life for everyone.

The other issue with kids returning to school was that for many months in Melbourne, they were at home not mixing with other people.  I’m guessing that this along with high stress levels created a compromised immune system so we saw a big rise in kids getting sick, bringing it home and sharing it lovingly with their baby sister or brother and of course parents too.

Parents haven’t had the best time in 2020 with homeschooling being the norm.  For some, they’ve loved and embraced it, but for others trying to juggle work, home and home schooling in ‘spare time’ it’s been an extremely stressful year.  The stress has engulfed us globally in some way or other, no matter how we feel about this current situation.  Managing this stress has not always been easy and we are facing 2021 with some hesitancy about what this year holds.  It’s not possible to plan far ahead ‘just in case’ and holidays out of our state is not a favoured option at the moment.  Although we don’t know what’s in store for us this year, we can try to prepare for it as best we can now, before we start to have trouble sleeping, eating – too much or too little – low energy levels, irritability and so on. 

We have lots of options for you so you can begin the year in a better frame of mind or at least with something to help you along the way.  We’d love to help you and your kids start the year off feeling a little calmer and with a strong immune system.

There is a very good reason this phrase has been used for so many years.  They have been living with humans for over 30,000 years.  They are said to have a gut biome more similar to humans than any other animal, possibly due to the fact that they have been living and eating with us for so long.  Dogs are communal animals, living in a pack and protecting each other as a very strong team.  They will behave exactly like this with us, their human pack.  Our dogs are dependent on us these days to live.  For their food, shelter, warmth and love and in return they are fiercely loyal, loving unconditionally and would go to almost any length to save us from harm.

Dogs will love us no matter what we do – sometimes to their own detriment.  Their loyalty is so strong and there are many stories of dogs rescuing their owners or members of their ‘human pack’.  If there is any danger, our dogs will try to warn us and protect us from whatever the harm may be, even if it means them suffering in the process.  They will alert you to the smell of smoke if it’s around and you are sleeping.  When a baby is born, they will be fiercely protective as they seem to know they are your dependent little precious bundle and a part of their pack.  They are also known for detecting diseases or injuries you may have with their amazing sense of smell.

Dogs have inbuilt in them a need to please you.  You are their pack and they can’t risk being thrown out of the pack.  Just like your toddler is completely dependent on you, so is your fur baby.  They read energy from us and other animals so if you are sad, they read it and will want to be there for you.  This is why they make such amazing therapy dogs, helping kids with behaviour issues or disabilities and young homeless people.  In fact, they are your very own therapy right there.  Next time you’re struggling to sleep, try snuggling with your pooch.  They will be there for you no matter what.  If you are happy, they know it and will respond.  If you are angry, they will most likely be frightened or try to do something so you will praise them.  There are many stories of dogs laying on their owners grave.  They will never forget you or stop loving you.  I was taught that you should never have to hit your dog or yell at your dog.  They only want to please you, so it’s your responsibility to show them what it is they need to do to please you.  Whether this is doing tricks, sleeping in a crate, on the floor, in their own bed or sharing yours, where you want them to eat and the list goes on.  If they aren’t behaving the way you want them to, you may need to find out how you can do things differently and yelling or hitting your dog just won’t help. 

If they are chewing your furniture, barking too much etc whatever it is, it is you as their human owner needs to learn how to redirect them or help them learn what it is you want them to do or not to do.  There are some great doggy people out there you can learn tricks from.  Cesar Milan the Mexican ‘Dog Whisperer’ has loads of free youtube videos to teach you all kinds of ways to help you and your dog.  He consistently rescues extremely aggressive dogs and trains them very quickly to be loving and gentle.  Dogs are never too old to learn, and will learn very very quickly.
