In this episode we explore what is lifestyle medicine which encompasses a truly holistic process of health looking beyond the prescription of medication.

Incorporating Lifestyle Medicine changes into your daily life can often help avoid unnecessary medications and surgery and limiting the use of these to only when really needed. The key ways to improve your physical health are by eating nutritious foods, sleeping well, exercising regularly, avoiding intoxicants and most importantly looking after your own mental health to reduce stress and maintain healthy relationships (with yourself and with others around you).

Dr Bruce Lipton has been saying for years that our epigenetics means that “DNA is not our Destiny.” What this means practically is that by changing our mental and physical environment for healthier alternatives; we can change our genetic makeup and alter our future body health. We can prevent illnesses and even reverse long term mental and physical health conditions. So how can we keep our mind’s healthy? By changing behaviour patterns and shifting our mindset we really can achieve tremendous success in our lives and not be limited by ill health. By reflecting and understanding ourselves we can express our own true authenticity and true nature which will give us purpose and inner contentment. This removes stress and promotes resilience. We can use our conscious community, spiritual teachings, and scientific research to implement these changes in ourselves and reach our fullest potential.

In this episode Jay and I discuss the UK educational system, what is working well and what’s not working so well. The differences between public, grammar and state schools and the unfair advantages that follow and how we can to make it better and level the playing field. We also explore how we fare internationally compared to our international counterparts and which countries are excelling on this front with a very robust and comprehensive educational system but perhaps lacking on the real life skills we all need in adult life. All of these facets will impact the jobs that we will be able to do in the years to come as we work in a much more borderless way, which has been expedited by Covid 19. This podcast is important to me personally and its crucial that all children are given an opportunity to develop, pursuing their interests and have a strong foundation so that they can thrive in whatever they choose to do. I therefore was delighted to have my friend, Jay whose an ex-banker turned entrepreneur whose been working in the educational sector for 10 years and has a wealth of knowledge through his business know-how including with the UK governments steering committee on how to navigate this vital sector. Jay recommends reading Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell which isn’t focused on the educational sector but a great read for developing personally and professionally. Sending you all love and light. 🙏

Here I was joined by a good friend Tejas who talks about his career in journalism, the important role the media has and the changing landscape of social media with reference to the Netflix documentary, the social dilemma. The podcast also explores some ideas we can all try to cultivate to using social media more as a tool. This was a powerful video clip that he refers to in the podcast - https://youtu.be/S2Yd5Qyodp4

In this episode I speak with Tejvi on mental health and why therapy can be so beneficial but also how to self heal. We explore topics around using language powerfully and impact fully and how we harbour emotions right from our early childhood days and into our adult lives. Therefore, we also explore how to raise emotionally resilient children who can hopefully avoid some of the pitfalls we’ve encountered. This was a really interesting podcast and I hope you’ll find this beneficial whether you’re working with children, are a teacher or are working on yourself. The message is to listen to you, be kind to yourself, it’s all about that self care! Further resources are:

This episode discusses a topic close to my heart - understanding our place in the world, being compassionate beings, to all living entities whom we share the world with as well as promoting vegetarianism. It also follows and explores some of the key messages from the recent shows on Netflix with Sir David Attenborough and ITV’s Prince William programme on the topic. I also hope this podcast provides some practical tips that we can all do as well as casts continued focus on this huge existential crisis, where we all as global citizens, not just governments and businesses change habits and be part of the internationally focused solution. The reality is that our world, community and future generations need us all to be part of this change to reduce carbon emissions and move towards more greener solutions. Sending you lots of peace, love and light. 🙏

In this podcast I was joined by two friends, Taz and Kat who explore ideas around modern dating, their journey and how they’ve navigated covid and used the experience to bring them closer together. They are inspirational professionally but more in their kindness towards each other. Despite appearances and coming from different backgrounds, they have found that they actually share similar values and have brought two families together in a seamless way.

Episode 1 had my good friend Rupin on Prim Rose Light. I was fascinated to learn more about the principles and messages of the 5am club which he’s been putting into practice. Please tune in to hear what he has to say and how it’s helped him live a more fuller life. Towards the end of the podcast, I also cover some of the key learnings in the monk who sold his Ferrari. I hope this episode inspires you and if you’re seeking change, I hope this provides impetus towards living happily and abundantly. Until next time, I’m sending each of you love and light. 🙏

Episode 2 - speaking with Riya on the corporate hustle and we talk on a range of topics from feminism, corporate careers, why do people leave the corporate world, how to balance life and how we can live our true purpose. I hope you find this second podcast an interesting way to spend 45 minutes. Sending you peace, love and light. 🙏

Welcome darlings - My friend Rupin and I have discussed a little bit of everything but with a focus on conditioning and how we can cultivate being more conscious beings.
