myself a small portion and really enjoy it.
I have also found healthy alternatives that are highly nutritious and sometimes even more satisfying.
Fill your body with nutrients… and more. I have been drinking a type of juice called Tahitian Noni
Juice daily since I was 13 years old – I love it. It contains a large number of vitamins, minerals and
antioxidants that I believe boost the immune system, leaving my skin feeling beautiful and soft. I’ve also
used this juice topically on my skin for years when I’ve accidentally been sunburned or had pimples and it
really helped. I recently created my own organic skincare range called Kora that contains Noni juice.
Daily meditation ensures I am healthy, alert, and able to keep up with the demands of my job. I’ve
found that this, along with proper nutrition and exercise, makes me less susceptible to illness, and when I
do get sick I recover quickly, having given my body the tools it needs to fight off illness or infection.
If you are having trouble keeping to your exercise program try exercising with your friends. It’s easier
as you tend to motivate each other into action, and it’s also healthier than going for a cup of coffee! What I
practice keeps me fit and healthy inside and out, boosts my immune system, slows down the ageing
process and allows me to be at my best at all times without the hassle of dieting. I use this affirmation: ‘I
choose to fill my body with nutritious food and treasure my soul’.
Yoga keeps me fit and healthy inside and out. It boosts the immune system, lubricates joints, massages
the organs, and increases strength and flexibility as well as spiritual awareness. I believe it also slows
down the ageing process! My dear friend and yoga teacher Charlotte Dodson has taught me to honour my
practice with quiet moments of positive intention, dedication and gratitude. Through my daily yoga
practice I’ve learned to concentrate on my breath. This helps me to truly be in the present moment, which
is a gift to cherish. If my mind drifts away with thoughts, I intentionally bring my concentration back to my
breath. After all, breath is the essence of life.
My top tips for staying healthy:
– Focus on filling your body with nutrients instead of counting calories.
– Fresh food is the best, so try to avoid processed food and artificial sweeteners, colours and
additives.
– Supplement your diet with a nutritional product that works for you.
– Try as much as possible to use natural and/or organic skincare products and remedies.
– Establish a daily routine. For me that’s body brushing, twenty minutes of power yoga, affirmations
and having a shower to my favourite song of the day.
– Sing, dance, smile and laugh. Nothing makes you feel so blessed as a big belly laugh. It is a great
medicine and it rejuvenates the soul.
Getting personal:
– What is your daily routine like?
– Is there time in your routine to think about what you eat and drink?
– How can you start learning more about what you put into your body?
– What do you put on your body now?
– What can you do to better look after your health and your self in general?
it’s all about you…
Balance is one of the key elements for your wellbeing. Try to imagine an old-fashioned weight scale; to
balance the scales you need to put equal parts of your life on either side. Too much on one side will
topple the scale, but when you place just the right amounts on either side, you find a force that’s balanced
and powerful.
When I lived in the model house I was way out of balance; sure it was great to meet lots of girls from
different parts of the world and have a sense of connection as we faced similar challenges, but it was
really chaotic. So many people came and went; no one really nurtured the space we shared and it felt
really unsettling. I needed the complete opposite of what was going on.
Everyone needs a little time to nourish their soul and
