About
Writing the “About” page has been an interesting exercise in self reflection. How do I sum up who I am in a few sentences or a few paragraphs? Perhaps this is part of the process of getting clear on what’s important to me and how to best share it with others.
I’ve taken a very “scenic” path to get to where I am today (Jan 2008) - happily married for 9 years, almost 5 months pregnant with my second baby, a Master NLP practitioner & Master Results Coach with one of the biggest personal development companies in the world - the Christopher Howard Companies, an independent distributor with Neways International - a company dedicated to providing mainstream products free from potentially harmful ingredients and writing this blog and sharing my views on topical health issues.
Phew, what a mouthful. In reality, anything I write here is just a minute insight into who I really am. If you know me, you might have witnessed a brief sparkle of the passionate & spirited me, otherwise, you’ll get to experience it through the posts on this blog.
For a girl who didn’t finish her science degree in the early 90’s (the reality of a lab coat & peering down a microscope doing scientific research wasn’t particularly thrilling) it’s a little funny that here I am now, doing research - it’s research my way - on the internet, medical journals, books, copious health newsletters in my inbox - all for the sake of discovering the truth.
And that’s the tricky thing - what is “The Truth”? It’s different things to different people, and here, I’ll be sharing my version of it. Now because I can’t specifically do the scientific testing myself, I have to rely on what’s researched & written by others. So there may be times where I’ll be very convinced of a particular point of view because that’s all that I can find at the time, but months or years later as new research comes to light, those ideas may change slightly.
Overall though, I believe in natural ways of attaining health & well-being & very, very limited orthodox medical intervention. We have the most amazingly powerful bodies (& minds) and I think a lot of people don’t really understand the true nature of that power.
My recommendation is to read the posts in this blog with an open mind - I’m not here to change your mind, more to let you see that there are alternate points of view to the things you currently hold to be true. And in the privacy of your own home (or wherever you computer is located), try the thoughts on for size, ask yourself “what if this were true? how would it change the way I do things in my life? would my physical or mental health & well-being benefit from a new way of looking at things?” You’ve got nothing to lose and possibly much to gain.
The main topics covered will be:
- Benefits of sunshine;
- Organic/Biodynamic food;
- Natural Immunity (vs artificial vaccination);
- Water fluoridation;
- Pregnancy & parenting;
- Homeopathy;
- Network Care Chiropractic;
- Neuro-linguistic programming;
- Mind-body connection
- Inspiring books to read - visit my Amazon bookstore;
- Free tickets to the most inspiring personal development seminar - Breakthrough to Success;
- Information about my Neways business, including the Success Alliance Marketing System I use to make the Neways business so easy & successful.
I know that’s a pretty long list for a blog titled “Sunshine, Natural Immunity & Real Food”, but they are the areas I’m passionate about & from time to time, I might include other topics that have peaked my interest - so get excited, you’re in for an interesting ride.
I look forward to sharing my journey.
