Feelings are what creates your physical energy, therefore your energy can be low or high – anger or love. Once you know what wellness means

I’m excited!! separate monthly Recently I spent a long weekend up in Maleny (near gorgeous Montville and Mapleton on the Sunshine Coast) at a practitioners retreat: learning, sharing, brainstorming and dancing….. yes that’s right, DANCING!! It wasn’t your normal kind of dancing – it was so much more than that. Initially I thought, hmm, I’m not so sure I want to do this in front of a bunch of people I don’t know!

A member of the cabbage and broccoli family, it contains sulforaphane (particularly when chopped or minced) – a chemical with potent anti-cancer properties.

Are you afraid of change? Sometimes we hold on to unhealthy habits, memories or relationships for fear of loneliness, resentment and uncertainty.

Breathing 101

By Viki Thondley | The MindBodyFood Coach on February 6, 2012 / Health & Fitness, Holistic Health, Meditation, Positive Psychology, Positive Thinking & Affirmations, Stress Management, Wellness Coaching

BREATHING – It’s easy isn’t it? How are you feeling today? Are you tense and tight or relaxed and calm? Breathing is an automatic function which we don’t really pay much attention to.
