Fill My Cup

Beware: The next five minutes are going to be a little uncomfortable, but it's for good reason...

ASMR, is not for everybody, you either love it or hate it. 

But would you believe us if we told you that ASMR actually might help you to destress, calm and prepare your mind for a good sleep? 

Today Allira shares with us her night time routine (ASMR) in the hopes that you might get a better sleep.

Ever wondered what happens when you book an appointment with someone who specialises in Chinese medicine & acupuncture? 

It's not for everyone, but the people who see an acupuncturist swear by it.

So today, Allira is doing a deep dive into all things Chinese medicine. She's joined by Dr Amanda Waaldyk, founder and director of Angea Women’s Health clinic, an integrative Chinese medicine practice.

She explains to us the difference between west and east and what a Chinese medicine can do for you.

Today, we’re doing something a little witchy...

We're talking magic! Yes it's real. Spells are a good way of setting intentions, refocusing and practising mindfulness. 

And Allira has two to share with you - one that'll help unlock your intuition, and another (that you might've seen on Witch-Tok) that'll help cleanse your space.

Have you seen that soulmates trend on TikTok?

The one where people compare the moon phases at the time they were born and if the two halves make a whole then you're soulmates? 

We brought in our resident Astrology Expert, Natasha Weber @astrotash, to debunk if there is any logic to the soulmate trend and how to tell if you and your partner are actually compatible (according to the stars).
