Even though I’m powering towards the end of my second trimester, I’d like to share some of my experiences from the first, in particular how I managed my health naturopathically. ____________ The first inkling I had that I was pregnant, apart from the late period of course, was a generally bloated and ‘off’ feeling. I […]
Tales from my life
What’s happening in 2014
This year looks set to be an interesting one for me, with a number of large and exciting events on the cards for 2014. These promise significant growth, both professionally and personally. Though you’ll hear more about each as time progresses, I thought I’d share some of the excellent things I’ve got coming up… both […]
The view from here
We’re staying on my mother-in-law’s property Qld at the moment and it is lush. Lush! North Qld is known for many things… cane toad races, beef producers and bogans. All of which can be found up here. BUT it’s also a place of amazing naturescapes, tropical rainforests, coral reefs and some of my favourite people. […]
Sharing happy news + heading north for the holidays
So… I’ve got a bit of news to share. As if the photo isn’t a dead giveaway… I’m having a BABY! Exciting news for anyone, and Jon and I are no exception. We’re a bit ga-ga about the whole thing, truth be told. For me, it’s also been cool to experience first-hand many of the symptoms […]
Sunday Study
I spend at least one day a week holed up in the library, catching up on acupuncture coursework. Since re-entering the world of study (and newly-entering the world of post graduate study) I have rediscovered my amazing procrastination skills. Really, they are second to none! My antidote to this is a dedicated 6-ish hours (usually on […]
Saturday!
Happy news my lovely friends, I am opening up Saturday appointments very soon! Up to now I’ve only taken weekend appointments by special request. However, I’ve been having more conversations about Saturday appointments recently, so I spoke to Brad (Uclinic manager extraordinaire) and we are opening up the books. Hooplah! This means that as of next weekend – Saturday 28th […]
Problogger
Do you do things outside your comfort zone? You know, different to your usual habits? I do. Less than I used to, but still fairly often. For example, over the weekend I was at the Problogger conference. Before going, I was nervous. I mean, I enjoy writing on this blog, but I don’t think of […]
Head. Cold.
I’m sick! How embarrassing.* Seriously. As someone who works in HEALTH, being sick seems … inappropriate. Particularly after crowing about my vitality and wellbeing to my family and friends. Let that be a lesson on the vulgarity of boasting! It also doesn’t help that I have been surrounded by the ill and infected over the […]
Taking the Waters
Hello! I have re-entered the blogosphere! Had a bit of a hiatus while travelling and whatnot, but now I’m well and truly back home… and back in the swing once more. While we were away, my husband and I did a lot of soaking. We, literally, got in a lot of hot water. Apart from […]
Experiences not things
I covet things as much as the next person. Who doesn’t? However, I get worn down by the constant drive to acquire something new; the heavy desire for stuff we don’t need. And, even worse, don’t value. Ultimately, things don’t motivate me. Experiences do. I would much rather use my time, energy and resources to cultivate an […]
