You would assume that after however many years of human history that women would, with profound understanding, be familiar with each minute detail of their menstrual cycle. However, whilst that may have previously been the case, the modern world which is absolutely loaded with toxic diets, hormone filled meat, stress for days and synthetic hormonal manipulation with the aim of preventing natural pregnancy - the pill, the Mirena coil, the Implanon - has resulted in a myriad of symptoms, illnesses and disease that are deemed "normal" in our modern society. That's why Holly Sinclair joined me on this episode to talk in detail about what a normal menstrual cycle should be like.

In today's episode we cover:

• Why understanding a woman's menstrual cycle is important
• Why knowing which symptoms and side effects are not normal is important
• The improper and unnatural use of damaging birth control methods

Think and you will be! Profound right? The mind is the most under-utilised part of the body in this modern society. Many ancient cultures had a profound understanding and connection with the mind and used it as a tool to govern their body, their lives, and their destiny. Getting Dr. Philip Alexander on the podcast, a doctor from the hospital that I work within was great to cut get some credible information on the impact that the mind has on our body and how we can use meditation and integrative transformation to learn how to begin interpreting it, engaging with it and utilising it to the advantage of our physical and mental health!

In today's episode we cover:

• Dr. Alexander's Journey from Western Medical Education to Mindfulness
• How Our Thoughts and Feeling Effect Our Biology
• Tools To Begin The Path To Being Practically Mindful

It is the age old tale of weight loss - not seeing results fast enough. There are a few factors that play into this and the big one is that people expect to move mountains right off the bat despite not even owning a bulldozer, secondly, there are a bunch of things that are simply forgotten about by anyone that is not a nutrition or fitness expert and I'm going to give you 4 of the big ones in this episode.

In this episode I cover:

This week is a super-serious week in the health and wellness space as it is International Eating Disorder Awareness Week and I find these types of events really useful to have more open conversations about some otherwise difficult subjects which is why I invited Stephanie Georgiou onto the show whom you may already know from Instagram as @Melbrunchqueen but she is also a qualified psychologist with honours that specialises in the nutrition and eating disorder space and she brings a great deal of insight to the topic within today's episode as well as sharing some really personal challenges that eventually lead to her becoming the Instagram Food Blogger that we all know as @mindfoodsteph (formerly @Melbrunchqueen)

In Today's Episode We Cover:

• Steph's Personal Journey With An Eating Disorder
• What Eating Disorders Are and How To Identify Them
• The Influence Of Social Media and When Being TOO Healthy Become A Psychological Problem

Have you ever wondered why you might feel a little off sometimes? We all have, right! Well, most people don't think about the possibility of electrolyte imbalance which can happen at the drop of a hat depending on how your day, week, month, year has been! Also, some people have asked me about sports drinks like Gatorade and there effectiveness in fixing electrolyte imbalances, so have a little chit chat about that too!

Today I cover:

• The 5 major electrolytes and what they're all about
• Symptoms and possible causation of electrolyte imbalance
• Top 5 foods to eat AND the sports drink verdict.
