Imagine a talented, driven and deeply imbalanced 22-year old woman. She’s a rising magazine writer. A champagne-guzzling, drug-poppin’, sleep-deprived, perpetually hungover party girl. Not a ton of self-esteem — but tremendous potential. And so much love to give — if she could only figure out how to love herself, first.
Even if you are eating whole foods, moving your body regularly, working on your emotional health and keeping tabs on your stressors, your health may still be in serious decline if you are not attending to one of your body’s most fundamental requirements: sleep. The main recommendation of sleep health is simply to get your 8 hours. But there’s more to it than that.
These are my notes from the seminar, Skintervention with Liz Wolfe of Cave Girl Eats, during the Healthy Life Summit. Just for you!
Growing up in Mexico I took for granted that nutrition was passed down from mother to daughter, and that products like corn and beans were staples of any healthy diet. When I came to the U.S. in 2007, I found myself separated from family and my long time family doctor. My husband on deployment in the middle- east and I was 5 months pregnant with my first child, living with my in-laws (which I had met only once before). This was not exactly my ideal support group for a first pregnancy.
I was feeling inspired by a list of great health quotes the other day. As I read down the list however, the attitude started to change from ‘health is the greatest wealth’ to ‘health is the greatest burden’. Instead of affirming my passion for prioritising good health, there were more and more quotes that seemed to ridicule me for wasting my life thinking about my health.
Normally when you see people talking about depression or articles on depression, you see someone with their head in their hands not knowing what to do with the world. For me it was completely different. I still went to work, went to social events and lived life. Realistically I did not even know I was chronically depressed. I just got unhappier and unhappier as each day went on. I never went to a doctor for them to tell me I was depressed.

Is it possible to cure an ‘incurable’ disease like diabetes? Watch this documentary that shows 6 people going off insulin and medication after changing their diet.
In the debate on organic food, many people consider price and nutritional benefits. If you have decided that organic food is too expensive, consider how much you are willing to spend on a glass of wine, a trip to the cinema, a pair of jeans, a nice car…yet the very thing that gives you life – your food – has to be cheap or on special for you to buy it.
Scared to meditate? Don’t think you can shut off your mind? Do you envisage yourself sitting crossed legged on the floor saying ‘ohm’ or chanting? Fear not! Meditation comes in many forms, and has massive benefits for your health. Meditation can simply be a tool to help you relax your mind; improve your focus, your creativity or self-awareness.
God, death, the afterlife…. subjects not comfortably spoken about between people, which is a shame considering how much our beliefs affect us. The research I’ve done and experiences I’ve had related to this topic have truly changed my view of life. This article will share with you the journey I’ve been on since I was 17, trying to make sense of everything related to GOD.
At Primal Health, we don’t believe that you should have to catch a cold or any other illness. Colds, flu, diseases…all illnesses are not so much ‘caught’, as ‘created’. The book ‘Never Be Sick Again by Raymond Francis M. Sc.’ delves deep into this way of thinking.
I was recently in a position where I could have a sneak peek at the personal documents of thousands of community members. These documents gave me a snapshot of their habits, needs, desires and vices. Okay, it was nothing shady, I was simply handing out competition entry forms at a shopping centre over six weeks, and the documents that were shown to me to gain entry into the competition were shopping receipts.
