One of my favourite restorative yoga poses with the wonderful @margheritadalprayoga at a retreat in @insabinayoga. If you haven’t tried restorative yoga it’s one of the best remedies for fatigue, stress, overwhelm and to generally calm your nervous system and quieten your mind. It requires no flexibility or strength, it’s completely passive. Many people actually fall asleep in restorative yoga, so the only thing you need to pay attention to is to not position yourself near a snorer 😬! #yogaretreat #nightnight #relax #sleep #rest #nourish #quiet #peace #letgo #restorativeyoga #nutritionist #naturopathy #selfcare #fxmedicine @ Torri in Sabina

My favourite spot at a yoga retreat in Italy called @insabinayoga. Highly recommend this place if you want to slow down, recharge and spend some time in beautiful scenery. Lying on the bed as it gently swung, looking up into the arms of an amazing tree, birds tweeting and butterflies fluttering about.. absolute heaven. Wish I could have bottled that feeling! . #yoga #retreat #meditation #peace #quiet #italy #restorative #magic #soulfood #nutritionist #naturopathy

Recipe - Soothing sweet potato, coconut and turmeric soup.
Before you get too excited that summer is on its way and start barbecuing everything in sight (no barbecued porridge is not a thing), there’s some still some chilly spring days to deal with. This recipe is just the ticket to nurture your immune system and warm yourself up from the inside out.

Great result for my client Patrycja - photo on the left is how much hair she was losing every time she washed her hair, photo on the right is 5 weeks on. She’s been great to work with, diligently sticks to all my recommendations and shows great enthusiasm for the process. Here’s to the power of natural medicine 🎉! What do you want to work on next year? . . #functionalmedicine #nutrition #naturalmedicine #naturopathy #health #wellbeing #london #naturalhealth

Getting me some vitamin N. This is one of the most important wellness tools in my armoury and the benefits are felt instantly. Fresh air, sunlight, allowing your eyes to see further than the building/road in front of you. Every season in the UK has something special to offer, right now it’s a patchwork of brown, orange and gold trees and crunchy leaves tumbling to earth. Lovely. #autumn #nature #citylife #countryside #health #wellness #paleolifestyle #barefoot #earthing #functionalmedicine #nutritionaltherapist #freshair #breathe #destress #letgo #space #joy

If you suffer from IBS, SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth) is something you may want to consider. This is where bacteria start to populate in the small intestine (where they shouldn’t be). A breath test can confirm this then there’s lots of treatment options to get it sorted. Another thing I find with patients with IBS is that there is often also SIFO/LIFO (small intestinal/large intestinal fungal overgrowth), LIBO (large intestinal bacterial overgrowth) as well as ...other types of dysbiosis (I’m sure there’s a tongue twister in there somewhere!). I find testing really useful to get to the bottom of what’s going on, and patients find it motivating - seeing results on a piece of paper after months/ years of suffering can be a relief that there is something tangible to get to work on. Don’t suffer in silence there’s lots that can be done for IBS. . #nutrition #functionalmedicine #health #wellbeing #loveyourgut #londondclinicofnutrition #healthyfood #foodasmedicine #nutritionaltherapist #london #guthealth #feelgood #IBS

The @londonclinicofnutrition team taking an exercise break at our team meeting. Sitting is dubbed the “new smoking”, so weaving movement into your day is essential - squats, press ups, jumping up and down - anything to increase blood flow, get the lymphatic system moving and engage muscles that become inactive during long periods of being sedentary. I sometimes only take half a glass of water to my desk so I need to keep popping to the kitchen to refill (stairs involved), I even have a patient who is doing 20 squats in the bathroom every time she goes to the loo! Whatever works for you, get creative and don’t worry about looking stupid you’ll more than likely be a trendsetter 😊. #functionalmedicine #movement #officegym #health #feelgood #selfcare #nutritionaltherapist #london

Oh heyyy squash bread. Well chuffed with this creation but don’t ask me for the recipe because I forgot to write down the measurements 😑😑😑😖. It’ll taste extra special knowing it’s a one hit wonder. If you want to have your own fun in the kitchen it went something like this - ground almonds, buckwheat flour, eggs, bicarb, baked butternut squash. Probably the most useful information you’ll receive today (not). If I make it again il keep a note and post the recipe because it’s delicious, gut friendly and kind of like a cake-bread fusion 🤩. #glutenfree #grainfree #paleo #scd #gaps #paleolifestyle #nutrition #functionalmedicine #nutritionist #nutritionaltherapist #london #cookery #healthybaking #goodfood #health #wellness

Enjoying a creamy turmeric latte after some delicious stretching @triyogauk. If you haven’t been to Triyoga you should check it out it’s such a haven for stressed out city dwellers. Although equally maybe don’t go because then I might not be able to get a space 😛. #triyoga #camden #london #weekend #nutritionaltherapist #functionalmedicine #yoga #relax #unwind #stretch #breathe

One way to make eating well less expensive is to make a packed lunch. For the next month I’m going to get organised and take my lunches in with me - I kept forgetting and then had to buy lunch out which got expensive and eating things that I wouldn’t normally eat. This is today’s lunch - leftover dinner basically! Making mini egg fritters with spinach, spring onion, fresh herbs etc is great for packed lunch, just add a load of greens and some healthy fat and you’ll feel satis...fied without the dreaded afternoon slump 💤. I always tell my clients to batch cook on a Sunday - put some tunes on dance about make it an uplifting experience, then you can have delicious homemade food to take to work/ or to have for dinner when you get home late. All you need to do is steam some greens to have on the side and you’re good to go.

Jimmy Carr at the Regents Park Open Air Theatre - relentless rude jokes in beautiful setting with trees and fireflies buzzing by. Front row got crucified!! I was safely at the back :).

The England team need some of this bad boy to fuel them for their next match! This is a seeded squash bread, perfect for those avoiding gluten. It’s chewy and crunchy, delicious sliced and piled high with fresh tomatoes, basil, garlic olive oil, or slathered with almond butter. Gluten free doesn’t not have to mean horrible processed sponge bread from the supermarket, and even if you’re not gluten free it has a lower glycemic load than bread so you won’t get the dreaded energy slump. #englandtowin #england🇬🇧 #worldcup #worldcup2018 #glutenfree #paleo #baking #summerfood #freshouttheoven #nutritionist #nutrition #functionalmedicine #health #healthysnack
